Canada has socialized medical insurance. The doctors themselves are capitalists. Their incentive is to simply see more patients per unit time rather than charge more dollars per patient.
Language provides a capacity for learning that is collective and cumulative. The usefulness of language in tool-making and vast numbers of other tasks is obvious.
First, that doesn't tell us whether tool-making preceded language or the reverse.
Second, it doesn't tell us anything about how humans acquired language. Using sounds and/or gestures as symbolic communication elements is hard enough, but that's the easy part, and it can't happen until there is a common set of thoughts to exchange. You need shared language inside the head before you can start speaking and being understood - that's the hard part that linguists puzzle over.
Um, no. Many animals have communication systems, and a few can demonstrate some rudimentary symbolic language at the level of an 18-month-old human at best, but none have anything the equivalent of the human language faculty.
There are places where welfare is less generous than others, but where I live homelessness is a lifestyle choice, the way it is for yourself. Now, it's not reasonable to expect the mentally ill to take responsibility for making the best choices for themselves, but again, there's nothing I can do that the professionals can't.
As long as there are people starving and going mad in the streets
Mental health problems are far more likely to be the cause of homelessness than the reverse.
And I encounter someone who is mentally ill on the street, I'm not sure what you think I could do for them that the social workers and the police couldn't.
Some do, of course, and sooner or later there will be new breakthrough that will justify upgrades for most people, but a large number of people have all the computer power they need until something actually fails.
This is why software providers are trying to force upgrades for marginally better if not actually inferior versions.
The problem is that convincing everyone to do something about global warming is a political issue
There is a little more to it than that, because one of the true things (which the denialists bring out when they can no longer sustain their fantasies) is that while science has conclusively proved climate change, there are still many unanswered questions about the options for responding to it.

There are still a few actual journalists who are engaged in actual journalism.
They work for Saturday Night Live and Comedy Central.
Any lawyer would freely
I notice you are unfamiliar with how lawyers charge their customers.
The Muslim world has a very strong attachment to their prophet.
Ironically doing the very thing that the image of the Prophet iconoclasm is meant to discourage.
It's not about formal wages, it's about all the other abuses of workers' rights.

There's really not a lot of correlation between success and productivity.
Sure there's some, but not as much as you might think.
Very few people have any need to upgrade.

C# just looks like Java. It's really Delphi.
Isn't 'tenure' and 'unionized' redundant?
The presenter of a show reads from a script - (s)he is basically an actor.
That may be true of the narrator of a documentary, but for anyone presenting live it matters whether they know the science or not.
That is not a skill set most IT departments have.
I think that's the point.

A good start would be a promise not to create AI politicians. That should cover a whole bunch of evils.
We may have a problem - there is already software smarter than most politicians.
It's not called a theorem without the proof.
According to The Fine Article, Indians have documentary evidence of knowledge of a few right triangles.
The Pythagorean theorem states a universal truth about all right triangles.
The difference is quite significant.
And of course, the theorem predates Pythagoras - the Pythagoreans just projected a whole lot of mysticism onto the result.
No.
For the many reasons already cited.
So, you're applauding the fact that society now has it's priorities straight?
They really like the public thinking they're in control. Government itself knows better.
So, the wannabe king can rally followers by saying "Fight for God..." instead of "Fight for me, the other narcissistic psychopath!"
Fixed that for you.

You're referring, of course, to the incorrect capitalization. Fox News is a proper noun, which is merely one specific example of faux news.
