Veganism definitely has terrible PR. But we also have to be wary of cherry picking the extremists from a movement as representatives of the whole.
I’d like to be 100% vegan, I’m not but I try. We started with weekday vegetarianism and went from there. Moderation is absolutely effective, IMO.
I have faith it can be controlled within the project itself, I think politics has greater influence in the selection of what gets studied in the first place.
Yes but to be clear, I was joking.
Wow Cannon Fodder. I felt so bad for the guys that got wounded and just stayed there suffering.
They should control video games like they control guns.
Btw is $80 actually up from the oughts and 10s? I’ve had $80 as the price for the latest AAA game in my head forever and am continually surprised it hasn’t changed.
What if bias start to grow within academic institutions?
What if the public funding to those institutions influences which departments get more/less funding?
I actually am asking genuinely because I would be happy to know we can improve on what we’ve got.
I was thinking along your lines too, but have to concede the rebuttal as well. But I think we can still aim for the ideal of science proceeding as neutrally as possible once the funding is granted. Getting funding is the political interface. The question of “What should we do?” must be political, but “How should we do it?” can be left to science.
Ok that’s a solid rebuttal around the “is it normal” argument. I’m personally still of the mindset that it’s “normal but wrong”. I wish we’d stop using normal to mean “good” and stick with it meaning “popular”. Statistics!
Yeah that’s interesting. Though I do think the Bible is big enough and vague enough for either tribe to exploit. I’m convinced the Left could have sided with Jesus’s ways of life and been the Christian nation, while the right rejected it.
I didn’t realize there were pro-lifers that accepted “it’s not an abortion if the fetus wasn’t going to be viable”. You could pretty easily extend that to full term. Hell with medical debt, I don’t see how there’s much chance in a lot of cases even post partum.
Will you use Turbo mode?
You’ve got me thinking about how the distinction is what the incentive is. Still not black and white, but if you want to suffer because you have only personal enjoyment to gain and your needs are all met, that’s better than consenting to suffering to pay the bills.
So “on God” means like “on God’s authority” or “for reals”?
I don’t see why it would be like that. Even if the chemical these were detecting was sky rocketing during miscarriage, the test should only have two lines worth of reagent (test and control) built into it. You don’t get more lines from high concentration. This looks like a misprint.
My computing experience at work has gotten worse over the years (with the exception of OneDrive and Excel tables), but I get to go home and work with PCs that run free software that performs so much more slickly and unobtrusively. Thank you FOSS devs!
I would be bothered by having low clearance above the sink to do dishes, even if it was practically enough room.
Thank you for your reply!
Ah ok! I initially read that as Biowife, so I assumed there was a real pregnancy scare. And you know, Biowife as opposed to digital waifu or whatever.
