Teaching critical thinking has absolutely nothing to do with presupposing the existence of objective truth in political matters.
But there are % signs after all the numbers…
I’d be interested in hearing what it is about the language that has gotten you so excited about it.
Pretty soon he’ll have so much control over his platform that he can practically cron kings and manipulate outcomes to fit his personal political agenda.
Huh… do kings normally consist of commands that need to be run on a regular basis at scheduled times?
Sure, but what’s the end game supposed to be, then? Just making the same request over and over again indefinitely?
One of my current favorite alternative is, “X, the web app you access at twitter.com”, though given the logo that they chose I’m tempted to start referring to them as X11.

Being absolutely terrified of the ambient noises in Doom.
Yeah, when I was a kid and Doom had first come out, I got scared to death when I walked around a corner and ran into my first pinky; it was horrifying!
I was curious to hear what argument they were making but the article is behind a paywall. Could someone with access to it summarize for me?
I am curious because this seems a bit implausible to me given that the protocol selection process involves an open competition.
If that is what you are worried about, then isn’t the easy solution to build thicker walls?
If we talking about preserving birds I would still address the cat issue before the wind turbine issue.
I for one fully support never allowing cats outside unless they have a wind turbine attached to them.
Nice parks are one of the amenities that can be put in a “15 minute city”; the nicest city I’ve ever lived in, Brisbane (in Queensland, Australia), had beautiful large parks within easy access of the downtown areas.
By contrast, currently I live in a suburb, but it doesn’t really give me a nature fix when I need it so I have to go to elsewhere anyway.
Rooibos is just an inferior version of honeybush.
Change my mind.
For day-to-day purposes, if you are used to Fahrenheit but not Celsius or vice versa, and all you want to do is get a rough sense of how warm or cold it is outside without having to do arithmetic involving fractions in your head, then remember that there are two temperatures in Celsius that are roughly the same in Fahrenheit but with their digits transposed: 16° C ~ 61° F, and 28° C ~ 82° F. You can then roughly interpolate/extrapolate by about 2° F for every 1° C.
Huh, interesting, that page says that vegan diets “reduced food costs by up to one third [emphasis mine]”, which I guess is nothing to scoff at but on the other hand doesn’t seem that large; I would have expected the relative cost of including meat in your diet to increase food costs by much more given how resource-intensive it is to produce meat compared to producing vegetables.
I don’t know, I thought it was kind of fun that they mixed things up for a change and had the protagonist be the villain and the central plot be about his triumph over the antagonists who are the heroes; the movie ending with him relaxing and enjoying the sunset now that his great work was over and so he could retire and put down his burdens was a really nice touch.
