Yeah except that logic doesn’t apply to the UK and France

Can’t comment on NYC, but a huge chunk of cyclists in my area are genuinely reckless, Ebikes or not. I can understand that bikes are less dangerous than cars, but that doesn’t mean bikes can’t kill or injure anyone.

It costs $8k without insurance or with a high-deductible plan. Marketed hospital prices are not the same as what patients pay. Yes, a lot will pay around the $8k, but a lot more will pay a few hundred dollars.

I’m not saying the US has affordable health care, but if you’re going to criticize something, you have to keep the nuance.

One newspaper is enough to get a shallow understanding of something, but it’s not enough to get a more nuanced understanding. Even then, not every newspaper covers every story, so you’ll need multiple even for a shallow understanding about XYZ.

In fairness, I haven’t found a good paid news aggregator that has those paid sources. I sincerely doubt that most people can pay $10/month each to read NYT, The Economist, Bloomberg, WSJ, their local big newspaper, Wired, and whatever else might be useful.

I’ve read some takes that basically said the following:

The market for devs will shrink, but the market for senior devs will grow greatly.

Assuming that’s true, you won’t have to worry if you enjoy programming and are going to actively gain tons of skills in your free time.

If you won’t be that person, then I’m not sure if CS is good for you.

Is ICE run by the Canadian government?

You act like Americans weren’t screaming at other Americans saying that this would be the exact outcome. You also act like Americans weren’t yelling at other Americans about guns, imperialism, climate, and so much more of the country’s vices. And lastly, you act like Americans don’t get punished years down the line after their leaders make the most brain-dead decisions imaginable.

Even if it’s a recent phone, new flagship phones cost less than a month’s rent in many places. It’s not like phones are unattainable for homeless people.

Or go to protests that are better organized?

Never heard this in my life

He kinda is though. There aren’t many presidents that run on a platform of gutting literally everything that can be gutted.

A lot of the issues in Canada are the same as the issues in America except dialed up to 11. It is way more likely that Canada falls apart before America does.

That doesn’t describe legislation. From what I understand, that situation is just Pelosi asking for a favor, not much else.

I just call that my kitchen junk drawer lol

As an American, so am I.

Do you have a source or something for further reading?

Almost every home has a junk drawer or other junk container. Mine has multiple.

All that being said, I don’t think I’ve seen a drawer as confusing as this.

We’ve been working on that though, at least in blue states.

I think there’s value in having US troops stationed in Mexico to fight cartels and root out corruption as long as Mexico agrees to it. I understand that this isn’t what Trump is advocating for though.

You’re acting like plenty of politicians in the West wouldn’t do this if they could.
