Envelopes and parcels jostle together an awful lot. That means that enough residue for a dog to smell will easily pass from the envelope or parcel with drugs to one without. That means a lot of false positives. That means unreasonable search and seizure.
First off, kudos for taking a serious effort against time-switching. Bad idea though to go for DST year round. Just go back to standard time year round. Why? 1) It's astronomically (literally astronomically) stupid to define 12pm as one hour past when the sun is at its highest point in the day. 2) Doing this requires permission from the US Congress. A state can unilaterally shift to standard time year round.
That's not welding, but is more akin to soldering. It's very troublesome to get molten glass to wet a metal, keep the bond when cool, and avoid problems with thermal expansion differences between the metal and glass. This was first solved in the 1800s by using platinum as glass does wet it and its expansion is similar to glasses used in scientific equipment of the time and in early vacuum tubes and incandescent bulbs. After that things got fiddly. Being able to weld metal to glass means a lot of that and its complications can be avoided.
You're serious? You really think the floods of pointless majors oozing out of the humanities are of any use? What use? Examples? Fine job of you jumping right to the ad hominem instead of pointing out how the modern equivalent of underwater basket weaving is of any use.
They're looking at new advances in medicine the wrong way. These fantastic new cures rely on a model of customizing the cure for the patient. So, rather than selling a particular drug, these investors/manufacturers should look at it as selling Cure-O-Matic machines which when loaded with the patient's DNA and some parameters then produce customized drugs. Such machines will need consumables, reagents, spare parts, and programming. That's the new source of revenue.
I see that no mention is made of WHAT the education covers. I suspect a lot of these "highly educated" leftists majored in stupid things like "gender studies" and other stuff that really isn't valued in the real world. I come across people like that all the time and they're incredibly ignorant, often willfully.
Your numbers are demonstrably extremely misleading because you define censorship extremely narrowly. I described instances of censorship that I witnessed. Google for "campus censorship" and you'll see lots of articles by a wide variety of publications, left, right, and center, confirming what I say. What do you have to prove your assertion?
Yes, people HAVE been censored for calling for small government and loose gun laws. See the various examples of Young Republicans being harassed. See the various examples of people being harassed for passing out copies of the US Constitution. Here's an incident this past September where someone flying an NRA flag at a residence hall at Elon Univ was forced to take it down: http://www.elonnewsnetwork.com...
Ben Shapiro and Milo Yiannopoulos don't engage in racism. At least not racism as commonly-defined. If you define racism as contradicting a leftist, then yes. I don't subscribe to such Humpty-Dumpty BS. What actual racism do they practice? Have you ever heard of the concept of allowing a racist to speak so as to show the world his foolishness? If you need to shout down and shut up a speaker because the speaker is a bigot of some sort, then that implies that you're not being honest.
What makes you think that racism/ethno-nationalism/sexism/homophobia/transphobia are the only grounds by which a leftist professor or lecturer may be censored? I didn't state a reason for censorship because I want to know if any such leftist has been aggressively shouted down for any reason whatsoever or no reason at all on any campus anywhere. So, where has a leftist been treated so poorly?
Toxic natural ingredients would have been noticed a long time ago. It didn't take long for civilization to learn that seasoning your food with lead acetate was a bad idea.
Nice paper tiger you got there. Censorship is not limited by any stretch of the imagination to lectures being shouted down amid lots of publicity. If that's all censorship is, then your percentage would be valid. Most censorship is a lot more than than spectacular outrages like that. It happens to a lot of people all at once when attitudes are put forth of "you'd better not say XYZ", "don't offend that group", or "this point of view is unacceptable". It happens when a professor is doing a class to pontificate, not teach. It happens when students demand professors bend curricula to fit their own political beliefs. It happens when someone dares to wear religious items on or near campus. It happens when a professor's paper is torpedoed because the professor didn't toe the line correctly. It happens when people are afraid to speak their minds. They censor themselves. Look up "self censorship". Spend some time watching people on a campus. Sit in on some classes. Talk to people.
By the way, when was the last time a leftist professor or lecturer was threatened and given a massive shoutdown of the sort that Ben Shapiro and Milo Yiannopoulos routinely are subjected to?
Chinese metalworkers trying to be gunsmiths cloned a lot of western firearms from around 1890 to 1935. Many of them have reverse Chinese tattoo fails to some degree as well as silly, surprising, and frightening design choices while simultaneously demonstrating great ingenuity and patience. It was like whoever made these things obviously knew how to make things out of metal, but had very little understanding on how to make a modern firearm. There are lots of show-and-tell videos on Youtube by Forgotten Weapons on these things.
Read your premise again and think about your conclusion. It's not the handling of cash that's a security problem for marijuana shops, it's the storage. Lots of shops handle similar amounts of cash as do marijuana shops, BUT they can use banks. That's a big reason why banks started: they are secure places to store money.
Nitrates and nitrites have been used to cure meats since antiquity. Where did the nitrates and nitrites come from? Natural sources. Yes, that's right. It occurs in deposits in the ground and can be easily refined from nitrate-rich organic materials using technology thousands of years old.
When you find a shred of evidence that actually happened, literally or figuratively, let us know. In the meantime, try to understand that an accusation is not equivalent to evidence.
A Roman poet wrote "a rare bird in the lands and very much like a black swan". At the time, black swans were thought to not exist. In the 1500s, the phrase "black swan" was a common expression that something was impossible. Then in 1697, Dutch explorers saw black swans in Western Australia. The phrase then morphed into an expression that a perceived impossibility might later be disproven.
Maybe they can open-source the driver and rider apps so that people who know how to code can fix the myriads of bugs and misfeatures. I'm not holding my breath though. Trying to talk to their support is like arguing with a mentally-challenged six-year-old with no long term memory.

I've heard claims that you could see the Fremont Street Experience do that way back when.

The question should have been "Who's the jury going to believe? A pastor or a bank that has defrauded thousands of people?"

Last time I checked, it was because he thought it was funny and didn't seriously think anyone would try it.

So you DO think degrees in garbage majors have value? How would calling out useless majors prove that vapid point?

Please show us how you got the idea that "generally the left is more educated".

Paracelcus had the right idea on the matter.

No, it was Mister Wensleydale.
By your metrics, rape is a vanishingly rare crime.

Left wing journalists and modern brownshirts are not equivalent to "most of the world" by any stretch.
Suppose Starbucks or someone other party wants to censor stuff that's not pornographic. Suppose Company A pays Starbucks block content from Company B.
