If you took all the money and time spent on ineffectively fighting terrorism's tiny blip in the homicide rate and directed it to really saving lives, how many additional people would be alive today? Even if you focus it strictly on preventing homicides, those billions could've achieved significant crime reduction through detective/beat work alone and certainly through better mental health care.
That you feel it is worth it enough to view indicates you are actually willing to pay something
There are so, so many things people will accept for free that they won't pay for. Like most of the internet. That's why paywalls don't usually work, if we can't get it for free anymore we'll use our time on something else similar but a bit worse (there's sure no shortage of legal free entertainment out there).
They claim to have 2 billion active users per month, so about 30% of people. But considering only around 40% of people have an internet connection, that's most of the possible people.
The chaotic dump is still there, all you have to do is go around the back behind the shiny new buildings. There are more amateur and/or non-commercial websites now than there ever were.
It rained 70 inches this year here in California. We're well aware of rain. Clouds and rain do not block all light or even most of it. Solar panels do in fact generate energy while it's raining. Not quite as much as on a sunny day, but that just means you need a few more of them.
It's politically incorrect if you're worried about offending 0.1%. The other 99.9% just want to see clear evidence before giving up on the best working explanation we've had so far, because it makes a lot of things harder to explain.
It's not actually a myth. It's just something very, very, very rare that happens in odd circumstances. For example, someone from a wealthy family becomes poor but their parents still let them drive the pink Cadillac.
Indeed. Even if you have a direct bus line, a bus ticket costs about $2.50, so round trip is $5. One saved trip a month nearly pays for the prime membership.
Musk said Tesla's stock price is "higher than we have any right to deserve", yet people ignore him and keep driving it up. Apparently they don't trust him when it comes to his evaluation of his company.
But if gender is not taken into account, and suddenly females get identical sentencing, you can bet there will be a lot of legal agitation from a different group.
You seem to be assuming that the longer sentences are the fairer/better ones. If the "that guy looks big and scary" bias is removed and everyone gets the shorter sentence, it's good for all.
But it's very important for me to stay where I grew up
Seems like a self-imposed problem. Move 50 miles to the central valley and you can live like a [relative] king on $50K, eat whatever you want, and have plenty of money left to visit Silicon Valley every weekend.
We have fixed or improved so many of our environmental problems already in just the last half century. It's not magic, it's steady technological progress plus regulation. You might as well be standing here saying unleaded gasoline can never be competitive and the only way to fix the lead problem is to ban all cars. Absurd as well as impossible.
I've had to replace a credit card that got skimmed once in my life, and despite the thief spending thousands of dollars there was no risk of my being responsible for any of it because credit cards protect the consumer against that. On the other hand, if you carry a wad of cash you can be robbed and you won't get any of that money back. Credit cards aren't just hugely more convenient, they're infinitely safer for the consumer.
Low population density isn't an issue if 99% of your population lives in cities with high population density, and the rest of your country is open space. The USA is rural, nordic countries aren't.
Capone only served 7 years for his tax evasion. Still too harsh for the crime though. If you can't prove a crime, you shouldn't consider it in sentencing for a different crime.
Perhaps the healthcare savings from the ~40 million people per year injured in car crashes, and their increased productivity and incomes, will create a lot of jobs. Plus the 1.3 million people who die every year in car accidents are able to buy nothing currently, and will become active consumers.
Treat state sponsored hacking like an act of war, and make sure everyone knows you will respond with devastating force.
Unlike a bomb, it can be very difficult to definitively establish state-sponsored hacking as responsible for an attack. You can't (or shouldn't) start a devastating war over a gut feeling.

In fact, the whole reason Musk started SpaceX is so he can launch a mission to capture and retrieve the sun for his own solar energy purposes.

Visa-free travel doesn't mean document-free travel. Passports are a very likely middle ground.

There are other San Franciscos in Guatemala, Honduras, etc.

Money doesn't have to come from somewhere. The global economy grows.
Many grocery stores will already deliver your food for free. Turns out most of us prefer to go pick it out ourselves. People like going places.
Tuvalu strongly denies your accusations and demands an apology from the other 194 nations.
Low population density isn't an issue if 99% of your population lives in cities with high population density, and the rest of your country is open space. The USA is rural, nordic countries aren't.
Perhaps the only way to get the USA to fight global warming is to tell them they can invade Qatar, the UAE and Kuwait to punish the top polluters.

Anyone with solar.
