    A 2 Islands Experiment - a thought experiment opinion question about which US political party would perform better

    Who do you trust? Even if that experiment could be made, you wouldn't be able to do it alone. Would you trust your co-experimenters when the result was that the Republicans tanked their economy while the Democrats were thriving?

    A 2 Islands Experiment - a thought experiment opinion question about which US political party would perform better

    The poll consists of two choices, two for each group. I understand now what you meant, (and I voted now). It wasn't clear to me (and obviously to @Altfish) as the choices were ambiguously labelled. I read that as "a Democrat island would be better for US citizens" etc. Then I would have needed...

    A 2 Islands Experiment - a thought experiment opinion question about which US political party would perform better

    At the time being, it would be better for US citizens and all others to have a Democrat island. The Republicans are just Trump followers now, and that means they are totally delusional or lying. Both are not good ways to manage a country.

    Epic Games' woke coding standards

    I don't see it that way, but I could argue that they started it. They brought up rules that are so ridiculous that you have to ask yourself if they are Poes when you compare their rules to PC UNIX - which was clearly meant to be sarcastic. And if they really meant it serious, they are seriously...

    Lunatics taking over the asylum?

    I remember a documentation from years ago where the journalists looked for statements and found them. Whenever something bad happened in the Muslim community or in Muslim countries, German Mosques and organizations had put out press releases condemning the actions, but nothing made it into the news.

    Epic Games' woke coding standards

    Rare event, but I'm with @Saint Frankenstein on this one. It's not harassment, it's just playful banter - and they deserve it. It's just like PC Unix. In thirty years there will still be "man" pages, "history" and child process will still be told to be "nice".

    Lunatics taking over the asylum?

    If you are looking in the MSM, you'd probably find little. A Muslim organization condemning another Muslim organization isn't exactly top news.

    Epic Games' woke coding standards

    Unreachable code isn't. I had to program a routine, and I asked the project manager what I should do if I encountered invalid input. Her answer was, "that can't happen". Well, she must have had someone else check the data beforehand. Then I got in trouble when the message popped up, "This can't...

    The Economist endorses Kamala Harris

    The real problem is that nobody wants a solution. Both sides don't want a perfect catastrophe go to waste. As it is now, both sides can rally their bases with the problem. One point that would be lost if the problem was solved. And even if one side tries to do something about it (like the Dems...

    Question on Time

    Or they had 12 constellations because they had 12 months. The constellations are constructs, and not all civilizations had the same. The lunar cycle, on the other hand, is pretty objective and there are 12 (and sometimes 13) in a year. And that's why there are 13 constellations in the zodiac. 13...

    Name Calling Doesn’t Work

    It was a winning strategy in 2016. Do you think the voters have grown out of that phase?

    Question on Time

    The duodecimal and sexagesimal systems go even further back in time to the Sumerians. There are hypotheses that it may have to do with counting on the finger bones, but we don't know for sure.

    Surprising? Not at all. It's just a continuation of 30-year-old attempts at political correctness. Politically Correct UNIX

    Join my political party! The “I’m done talking about this crud!” party! (I ignored 44 members)

    Even though you will not read this (at this time), I want to say that putting people on ignore when you want to ignore topics, is not the right way. Just don't klick on new post that are posted in North American Politics.

    The Economist endorses Kamala Harris

    The own, daily experience is the prices in the grocery store. The raise is a one time event. When asked, the most recent and most often experiences are dominant. That's why most feel that the economy is bad. The news may help with that, but the experience is real (though skewed).

    Name Calling Doesn’t Work

    Two answers: 1. If the number of your voter base you can mobilize by trash talking is greater than the number of moderates and independents you can convince with arguments, go for the trash talk. 2. You don't have to outrun the lion, just your colleague. (I.e. keep just below the trash talk of...
