  1. Re:This demonstrates the article about libertarian on Union Power Is Putting Pressure on Silicon Valley's Tech Giants (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    The point douche bag is that they are exactly the same.

  3. Leading question on Silicon Valley Bosses Are Globalists, Not Libertarians (economist.com) · · Score: 1

    "would like to live in a society where government does nothing except provide national defense and police protection, so that people could be left alone to earn whatever they could,"

    As opposed to, "would you like to see less government regulation" or "smaller government"

    They're Libertarians and FYI Hillary Clinton is a Republican so stop thinking that makes them aligned with Democratic ideals...

    Swing and a miss. Still get broadcast TV??? You do realize that NBC, CBC, ABC, and Fox are all carried on cable and are prominently displayed in their channel lineup, and have internet sites. Not too mention if you cut the cord, you would resort to broadcast tv to watch tv because it's free.

    Moron.

    You meant to say what the media covers because celebrities endorsed Hillary Clinton, or was that another chapter in Clinton's book, "the celebrities that didn't endorse me and cost me the election."

    I was shocked they published the article but the article was correct. The "event" was blatant propaganda.

    When then use the word "disrupt." The use of the world indicates the individual does not know what they are talking about and are a condescending ass-hole.

  9. Rrandomized trial of parachutes? on IBM Pitched Its Watson Supercomputer as a Revolution in Cancer Care. It's Nowhere Close (statnews.com) · · Score: 1

    FTA: https://www.statnews.com/2017/...

    Pilar Ossorio, a professor of law and bioethics at University of Wisconsin Law School, said Watson should be subject to tighter regulation because of its role in treating patients. “As an ethical matter, and as a scientific matter, you should have to prove that there’s safety and efficacy before you can just go do this,” she said.

    Norden dismissed the suggestion IBM should have been required to conduct a clinical trial before commercializing Watson, noting that many practices in medicine are widely accepted even though they aren’t supported by a randomized controlled trial.

    “Has there ever been a randomized trial of parachutes for paratroopers?” Norden asked. “And the answer is, of course not, because there is a very strong intuitive value proposition. So I believe that bringing the best information to bear on medical decision making is a no-brainer.”



    What an ass-hole. If the good doctor has a license to practice medicine, it should be revoked! Yes ass-hole they do clinical trails for medical treatments but thanks for the Faulty Comparison...

    Quoting Lawrence Summers does not bolster your argument. It hurts it because you know: influential in deregulation of the U.S financial system, including the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act, deregulation of derivatives contracts, endorsed the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act which removed the separation between investment and commercial banks... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

  16. It's not a valid point. The assumption is you buy all the streaming services available. This is obviously not a valid assumption. But then I guess, via your cable service, you pay for HBO, Showtime, Starz, EPIX and Cinemax.

  17. Because the assumption is you have to buy all these streaming services. Sort of like paying for all those premium services that the cable companies offer you...think before you post Potsy.
