I like how you just randomly decide where the limits of a butterfly effect stop. Tools with inappropriately weak safety features can be considered to blame for bad results.
The op seems like the kind of person who just labeled everything terrorism that they did not like. He needs to get a hit on nuance. Not every piece of bad journalism is fake news, just like not every act of violence is terrorism. Understanding subcategories FTW
Someone doesn't understand the difference between a factually verifiable falsehood and heavy-framing lol. Both are bad but a verifiable falsehood is a much darker shade of black.
No it will not. Companies will become more sophisticated in their pricing systems and find new ways to categorize their consumers. Generally speaking they don't care if they have 1000 consumers at a profit of 1/consumer or 1 consumer at a profit of 1000/consumer.
" You can't take an 18-month training program and produce a machine-learning scientist"
He is right you can't, however that does not mean we do not need to change the system to encourage more American talent to go down this route. This is actually why a bidding system for H1Bs would be great. People with high level skills will continue to be allowed in. Also those with high potential will also be brought in. The Low skill low talent low cost hacks will be priced out. We have enough people who can fill that need with the 18--month training programs.
You are right that they are different location types, they however both legitimately have borders. Although, it may be not standard to compare the two, it is still a valid usage.
Anything is a valid "iProduct" the sheep buy it and think its cool. Then the rest of the market tries to reproduce and fail because there actually is no real use case. The sheep then loose interest and move onto the next cool "iProduct" rinse repeat.

You under estimate the cost of healthcare/chronic illness. £15 * 2 times a day * 365 days * 30 years = only £328,500. The healthcare costs can EASILY eclipse that. In USD "total cost of a single lung transplant to be $561,200.
These school pride themselves on "diversity" or at least the "right kind" of diversity. They spend all their effort focusing on ethnic and gender diversity with almost no effort for economic or cultural diversity. This is what happens when the recruiters are generally nice, but low functioning collage graduates who could not find careers in their original field. They have their definition of diversity and do not expend any critical thinking skills trying to find where their ideas fall short of the stated goal of creating environment with diversity of thought. You end up with schools where people all look different but think the same.
I agree your view a common held but problematic myth. There are many many things that can be improved about this nation. But collage affordability is not one of them. Speaking as someone who went to a tier II school which was more expensive than several of the Ivy's. No matter how poor you are you can afford to go to the best schools.
I survived just fine entirety on scholarship, pell grants, student loans, and internship money. At times I was a bit hungry, but not tooo bad. It can be done.
That was the old tradition. They very much hold onto their new tradition. They completely reject anything that goes against their status quo. They are an exact mirror of traditional cultural conservatives both groups are extremely hostile to any kind of change.
Indeed. I am glad we agree on what sex means. My point was that even the medical community takes sex to be nearly synonymous with your newer definition of gender. That is why there need not be two boxes. Why every-time I say I am a male, I don't get a check to see if I have a penis or an artificial vagina. That is the definition that everyday English speakers have used for our lifetime and many many before us. Additionally even the medical community uses the two virtual interchangeably (the point my story attempted to illustrate) hell transexual was not even a term before 1960 apparently

I am not a Dr. here but most every form I have ever signed has said "sex" male or female. No one has ever hesitated to grab me by the balls and tell me to cough nor have they tried to clarify if I was a trans-gendered woman who needed checkins for hormonal therapy, Why? Because in our language they mean the same thing. They assumed because I checked male, that I've got a penis and that's that. Otherwise that would be an unreasonable accommodation
To be fair and trying to be honest if I met a person who was trans-gendered in person, I probably would use their name and avoid the subject. If i was forced to make a choice, if I liked them or was in a professional setting I would use their choice, if I didn't like them I would choose the opposite. just out of spite. Why not just be polite? See the post you just quoted. People have a rebellious streak, they hate being told they have to do anything. Including what many (I would guess most) consider a unreasonable accommodation
Also I admit I do presume, your position is one found mostly in extreme liberals. maybe you are not, but that is a reasonable guess.
If only we could now shut down, AM, FM, Broadcast TV and Postal Delivery on Saturdays maybe we can start to modernize the hell out of the 70000 mile/hour dirtball. Nah just kidding I am just glad vaccines are gone so polio can make a come back. Lets make polio great again.
" She wants to be called by her gender (not biological sex; those are medically and legally different things)" They are not medically or legally different things. I couldn't care less if people with dicks want to go into the girls bathroom or people with vaginas want to do something that people with dicks normally do. Does not matter to me at all. But what you and other extreme liberals (hit I am mostly a liberal) are trying to do is rewrite the history of our language.
Now it is perfectly fine for language to change, however, you do that naturally by words slowly evolving over time. What here has happened is the extreme leftist decided to redefine gender and sex for the rest of the nation and pretend it was always that way without consulting the rest of us. To use a similar term that the left has been tossing around about Trump. That is "gas lighting." To that I say go screw off
"Does any of it matter? She wants to be referred to as "she", so unless you have some particular reason to be a asshat towards her why not just do it?" being an asshat towards political correctness itself has value. It is a form of resistance to the status quo which has been valuable for generations. Generations ago when the cultural conservatives said rock and role was non PC, people rebelled and fought back. Now this generation's cultural conservatives (ie the you and the SJW type) push this version of censorship and people yet again rebelled. Now we have trump:( in part thanks to your version of censorship.

This made me inappropriately happy.

No it is not. Words have meaning.

What you are describing is and positing as a negative, is in fact, one of the stated benefits of the internet.

Smokers on average have harder requiring more care for more years. It just starts significantly earlier.

To compensate for the long term healthcare costs and chronic treatment throughout the smokers life. Something like £30-£50 seems more appropriate.

Yes they are. You have to think and say exactly what they want you to otherwise you are an evil other. That is a very socially conservative attitude

At conception we are not "we" we are a blob of crap until we become sentient. For most that does not happen till their teens, for some never.
