There can’t be food deserts in 15 minute cities.

Yep, sure enough I missed this:

I have no idea to what extent the allegations are justified, but if they are true, then yeah, a fork was necessary.

What sets CoMaps apart is a fully transparent governance approach. All decisions about the app’s development are made publicly, with users and contributors having a voice in its future direction. This focus on community engagement aims to deliver value for its users rather than prioritize profit.

Did I miss something? How is Organic Maps possibly “prioritizing profit?”

Update: this is done. The 176 year old law is gone.

Obama is one of the “good guys,” not because he opposes Trump, but because he cares about what’s legal.

As fun as this is to fantasize about, it would actually be illegal.

It looks like the dart took out about a half dozen lights and a dozen people in about two seconds, so let’s say 10 strikes per second. At that rate it would take 10^11 seconds to pop a trillion balloons. That’s more than 3000 years!

Of course I did say “make a tiny dent,” but even to eliminate 0.1% of the balloons would take the dart 3 years. One trillion is a number that we use a lot, for example talking about the US national debt, but it is not an ordinary number that lends itself to intuitive understanding. Even a billion is hard to grasp intuitively.

All the fighter jets in the world couldn’t make a tiny dent in one trillion balloons.

whoosh

You seem to be unable to perceive that you are the thing you hate .

This is world news? Because… ?

Look at captain obvious over here!

I’m kidding you a bit, but seriously, you’re just restating the problem.

I like tacos in general, all kinds. But this is really getting under Trump’s skin, so more power to 'em!

Nice!

Double bass is not remotely the same instrument as bass guitar. If you don’t already know how to play it, you’re in for a long, steep learning curve.

take the L and walk away.

I’m here having reasoned conversations with thoughtful people. I left the karma farming behind on reddit, and I don’t miss it. I can’t lose.

The word “see” predates the concepts of neurons, chemicals, and photons by thousands of years. We see objects, not light.

The word “see” predates any concept of rods or cones or photons by thousands of years. It has nothing to do with those things.

That’s not what the word “see” means. You’re trying to to swap it for another word like “sense.” You see objects, not light.

The light that enters your eye carries enormous amounts of information with it. Your eye and a small portion of your brain comprise a highly specific tool for extracting a small subset of that information and processing it. The information you use is only related to the last object the light interacted with, not the light itself (with the small exception being the “brightness” - that has nothing to do with the object).

No one claims to hear the air in their ears rather than the violin that is being played nearby. That’s just not what the word “hear” means.
