The quoted parent post is a perfect example of reality being suppressed by negative scoring. Slashdot should be better than that. Musk is treated like an idol, and his firms are treated as sacrosanct but they are simply businesses with a a lot of product failures due to inexperience and poor management.
The treaty is required especially on the basis of preventing nuclear weapons use in space. Just before the treaty the US tested nuclear weapons in space and they did less than ground bursts. Watch the video. In terms of economic development, the treaty only enforces property rights based on the nation launching and using vehicles in space. Both for assets and liability. The real risk is that private space companies in effect can privatize the gains while socializing the risk of destroying billions of dollars of equipment launched by other nations.
Banning weapons in outer space is for the benefit of humanity. Given the reality that even a small debris field from war would prevent orbital use for a century, it is valid.
No, Trump is responsible for gutting the current year NASA budget. You are responsible for not understanding the value and necessity of the research done since Apollo.
When a government program's goals are explicitly to encourage changes in private industry behavior, and the private industry then responds in a way that it previously had not and in comparison had ignored for decades, then yes, that is the success of the program. The same case applies to the Paris accord, wherein nationally driven research from the early stages has born fruit in successful changes to development plans as it is finally ratified and entered into force. Notice the targets for ratification and enforcement are strict, and the time line was very long.
The Paris climate accord took decades to achieve, and is valuable as the basis for further international cooperation to encourage industrial development without excessive pollution. In particular notice the cancellation of 104+ coal plants by China and India. 2C maximum as target, once achieve can be renewed with 1.5C, 1C, etc. as technology develops to achieve those goals.
Roughly 1/3rd of the entire world used Marxist power structures to analyze reality 30 years ago. It was taken as a literal science and mandated by governments that were fascist authoritarian states despite calling themselves communist.
Your other complaints reflect your personal bias more than anything else. Get over whoever or whatever insulted you in primary school, and move on with your life.
Checking if a claim matches history is dealing with facts. There was no such event as a "Bowling Green Massacre". There was an event called the Holocaust. Reality isn't flexible based on personal preferences, and any experience like that is a symptom of psychosis.
These aren't so called citizen journalists. You are making up an alternative meaning for the phrase fake news. In reality this phrase refers to collections of websites constructed for the purpose of attracting links with inflammatory headlines, regardless of the veracity of the headline or story content. Most are run out of southeastern Europe, primarily the Balkans, due to the poor economies but availability of some for of communication network with Internet access. It is the easiest way to make money there. Efforts to identify and remove fake news have no political intent but a business motive in ensuring the utility of the Facebook network for its users.
It is a common practice in search to use network links forward to pages and especially backwards to generate a value for a given entry or page. This gives a value to a link. Applying that same rule to Facebook previews and related articles is a logical development. Selecting specific pages based on political bent is censorship, but selecting those with the most back-propagated links is the basis of the Google page ranking algorithm.
The ultra-conservatives have always been the real whiners and the most special snowflakes since they have always demanded "you must do things my way" as a principle.
Sorry Jr. but you really need to learn some grammar, or at least how to use a spell-check, and how to proof-read your own writing. Secondary school is a minimum for literacy and understanding the labels on packages.
What is the economic gain from agglomeration in your region? It is likely much less than in SF. That is the driver for businesses to co-locate in the same area especially related and often dependent ones which then saves costs for all parties. Taxes have a purpose in supporting the infrastructure required to allow increased concentrations within constraints from required sewage with both complex construction and increasing maintenance costs and even maintaining habitability with water availability and air clean enough to breath from policy decreasing traffic fumes , etc.
Go back to school. You don't understand how a nation functions. Or, hopefully, you are still just a young student so once you graduate then you may understand something. Come back then.
So the benefit of safe trade through the north Atlantic has zero value for the rest of Germany? For the US, the Pacific market is useless? Are you so isolationist as to think that exports and imports have no real economic value? You are an idiot.
That's just reaching and a sign of your immaturity. Any navy exists to protect the security interest of their country as a whole. Is Germany only defended in Schleswig Holstein by the Deutsche Marine? No, it is aid to the whole.
Prove that 'indirect funds' are greater than CA taxes paid. Your bad example is what, 0.0000000000000000000000001% at BEST for however many CA residents are working at Oak Ridge, and filing taxes as CA residents? Reality is that CA taxes are still paid then, which means the taxes paid are STILL greater. Try to learn something before you reply.
Try to see through your biased view of politics. You are forgetting about earthquakes and liquefaction especially in California and especially in San Francisco which spatially limit development based on the ability of the ~ground~ to support the weight of buildings like large apartment complexes. Those weigh a lot. Falling buildings in dense urban areas are not just costly in damages but lethal to residents.

Your are still wrong; check my reply to your other post which includes the exact quote showing the opposite of your claim. The research paper itself makes the direct claim that this is caused by human-caused warming, and uses concrete statistical analysis to support it. That is where the probability mentioned in the Washington Post article really came from. You need a lot more education.
Tesla isn't in the same league as BMW or Benz. Tesla is in the same league as the Yugo. They have terrible build quality, terrible reliability, a criminally negligent design, and just quite frankly they aren't even luxury cars.

Nope, NASA is still the benefactor.

You should try reading for context and actual meaning rather than snipping quotes such that you can wildly misinterpret them.

Try again, those pieces are called clauses and the word "and" is a joiner. Not everything is for kids to read.

Google liquefaction - that is reality in San Francisco.
Screw the "want" bullshit, and fuck your biased viewpoint which just absolves you of responsibility for the throwing out native residents.
