Hipsters aren't interested in classical liberal arts. They're interested in neo-Marxist horseshit. Most people with a legit classical liberal arts education are far too insightful to be hipsters.
This is effectively what I'm hearing consistently from a friend who is a nuclear engineer. The fear of "nuclear", coupled with the directly associated regulatory environment, have crippled investment and development. Who's going to put millions into commercialization when the democratic fear state makes the resulting technology illegal?
Yes, things that hurt another person. Smoking pot or doing a line aren't similar to slavery/human trafficking. Conflating them is profoundly incorrect.
Hiring great teachers from one district and putting them in an underperforming district doesn't necessarily work. Because teachers who are great at teaching subject matter may be completely unprepared to deal with the classroom management issues in a poor school. Teachers who can hang tough at a poor school would likely really enjoy moving to a good district and getting a chance to enjoy teaching subject matter. The reverse move would likely result in worse results all around.
That guy is dead. I guarantee there are enough well-funded sociopaths outed by this that there will be a hit placed on this dude. He will be in worse shape that Assange or Manning.
It seems so obvious that basic law enforcement, economic develop, and educational reform would fix most of these kinds of problems, that I'm forced to wonder how awfully bad government corruption is that going to these extremes seems a practical choice for the people doing it.
Do you acknowledge that while what you say is true, it still indicts the folks who blamed Katrina on AGW, and those same people who predicted exceptionally bad hurricanes in the past 10 years?
If you can't have a rational discussion between your architects (who are most likely just really senior guys slinging code) and your product managers (who are most likely just sales and account reps without a market vision) you are already screwed.
Yes. Further, the point of the 2nd amendment was to equip the population to throw off tyranny. Any and all arms effective for that purpose seem covered by intent. Even ordnance, which was provided by private owners to fight the British. The intent being, specifically, to be able to fight a government.
No, this is not correct. In any market, if you set a floor or ceiling on prices, the result is a surplus or shortage. This is microeconomics 101. Market price is the intersection of supply and demand. Interfere with the market's ability to have supply and demand intersect, and the market is not cleared to equilibrium.
See the chart.
As to "stealing to eat", I never said that either. You're making stuff up, whole cloth, to create straw men. It's getting rather tiresome.
I'm sorry, did I misinterpret this:
Unless people have something like a guaranteed income to make sure they can actually attend education instead of having to try to find a job or resort to crime, nothing.
Since kids aren't allowed to work in the USA, I only assumed "resorting to crime" meant you thought kids were engaged in crime instead of being at school. What did you actually mean, then?
First of all, what is your theory for why they are not in school?
I think it's a cultural problem with many, many factors (whole books worth). Lack of economic prospects is certainly one of them, but not the only one. FYI My spouse worked in low-income school districts for 5 years. A lot of what goes on to prevent successful child development is behavior by the parent(s) that doesn't have any direct tie to finances.
Tune society so that education and work provides status for them instead and see the the turnaround.
If people sincerely do not believe work is a good idea, that is ineffective. As the child told my spouse when she explained that she and I work to pay for our food, "then you be fool".
What's the evidence people are not attending K-12 school because they're stealing to eat? Did you know that most schools in economically depressed areas provide free meals including breakfast (2 free meals/day)? And these families generally receive housing subsidies and food assistance?
Oh, and as far as the job constraint you referred to, I'm simply answering that the proposal of a "minimum living wage" as a function of creating a regulated price floor for labor would create unemployment.

Ask any liberal arts major. We don't have critical thinking skills. We didn't even take the course.
Did you go to University of Chicago, then, or major in neo-Marxist horseshit somewhere else? ;-)

If it works for aviation, it certainly might work for business software.
It didn't work for the 787, did it?
I miss my Nokia 2320. Not remotely a "smart" phone, but Nokia made some great handsets. Good to know they still do.

Who could have foreseen that wind power would be variable, even unpredictable?

Just look at educational textbook prices in general. The whole educational text industry is a racket.

Shit. I just described my own company.
We should give control over this to the same government that suspected Ray Bradbury novels of being intended to cause mass communistic hysteria.
It's an exercise in constituent relations.
Given that almost everybody is now calling it theater, would you say it had a positive impact on constituent relations?
Understand that "democracy" isn't a bunch of enlightened hipsters with progressive views deciding policy
There are enlightened hipsters?
I press the "3" key twice, really fast.
I'm pretty sure the whole ACA decision was a redefinition of "interstate commerce". I don't agree with it, but I think that's exactly what it was.
I work for a municipality
You've got some balls to admit you work for the government on this thread, buddy!
