Why do you think everybody is building natural gas liquefaction plants?
Russia's cash cow has an expiration date. They better have their pipelines to China built out soon.
The Germans in particular are building out solar and wind in large part because they don't trust or like the Ruskies. Sure it's expensive, but it's cheaper in the long run than being dependant on Putin.
Even as hippies the boomers had lots of blind trust. They just put in in Marx.
Once the hippies became yuppies (too old to be drafted, discovered cocaine) they became even more trusting and self assured in 'their generation' doing things right.
Like anything else, there are shades of grey. Good schools teach you how to learn independently for life _and_ teach you valuable skills. Bad schools indoctrinate. Many of the schools that claim 'life training' are, in fact, the worst indoctrinators (*studies programs in general).
Trade schools are better than indoctrination centers. At least you don't come out stupider than you start.
Apart from all the theories, falsification tests, publication, reproduction etc in physics there are some actual things called laws. Newton's laws, Ideal gas etc.
They are usually _wrong_ outside of scope, but are still taught because they're so fucking useful.
They are unlikely to change, even if physics further refines its understanding as 'the laws' are already known to not be universal. More engineer's tools than anything.
I thought quantum electrodynamics was maxwell's equations plus quantum physics. The edges aren't settled science. Finding an edge that so clearly violates Newton's laws would be very cool.
We may be stupid as a group, but we know the NY times has lost _all_ credibility.
It's in the sewer with MSNBC, Fox and CNN. Just an outlet for one of the major parties national committees.
The only people that believe a thing printed there are already 'in the sack' for the Ds. Some will be along shortly to moderate me troll or spit venom in a reply.
The most interesting ones come from the KGB archives. Turns out CPUSA was paid for by the Ruskies (and it's leaders answered to them), the Rosenbergs were guilty, Alger Hiss was an agent of Stalin, etc etc. It's almost like the Birchers knew something.
But that's not what you're asking, see sibling replies.
I'm there more often than I'd like. There are NO LOW INCOME SF residents. There are those who could afford it when apartments where only $2k/month but now can't at $3k. They are not low income and never were. Like I say trust fund assholes who's trust is no longer big enough.
The only low income people in SF are street people and people that ride BART in.
My car is modified to breath better, louder is just a side effect.;-)
I run mufflers on my glow engine planes and fly at a designated field.
We're not going to speak of the pulse jet though. Even I will acknowledge that's as inappropriate as a GWAR concert at Liberty university. If you lived close, I'd arrange a 5AM low pass for you...kidding.

Been done dozens of times. Including recently. Al Franken's election is a good example.
The USSR is no more.
Russia didn't give anybody independence anymore than England gave America independence.
The French generals of the time were blitheringly incompetent. They would have lost badly.
The Russians would have been with the Germans when they took Paris.

ITT was a bunch of trade schools. Not good ones.

Guitarists want a certain type of distortion. Some want tube, some want solid state.
But listeners of recorded music mostly want flat frequency response (leaving out the kids and their boom).
Tube amps are better.
Let me help you out: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
Note the linear part of the gain charts for all control grid voltages. That's where you run a tube to build a good audio amp.
Tubes are linear amplifiers over their operating range, transistors are not.
When you understand why that matters, we can start the discussion. Hint: Start with the word heterodyne.
Fucking law abider.
The optimal strategy remains: 'Suck the government tit for all your worth, work for cash.'
Homeless Finns freeze every winter. Problem solved.
Prudhoe bay Alaska also doesn't have a homeless problem.
So they keep the revenue from their stills in cash?
Basically the same in the USA. On the dole and working in the underground economy is par.

GGP's post contains nothing but the ST reference and paranoia about chinese research.
Birchers are nuts. But they were right about some things.
Does the text say 'right of the militia' yet? No? You remain wrong.

There are at least a dozen locations claiming 'silicon prairie'. They are _all_ full of shit.
I don't live in the bay area, but not KC either. There are shades of grey between 'cow town' and 'crazy'.
In Minnesota maybe, a place with much deeper issues.
3m hired 100 California engineers in the 80s and tracked them. By the end of the second winter they had 1 left. He was from there originally.
Dontyaknow, have some lutefisk, a hot dish...
There is a reason the car industry that remains in America is not in Detroit (some is near).
Detroit thought they had an immortal golden goose. Turns out they were wrong.
Cities need to remember that business can vote with its feet.
You live in the bay area and eat Panda?
I bet you drive by 5 great, reasonably priced, chinese places to get to it.

Fair enough.
