He's asking about a hot air balloon ride with a company. He's not asking about owning a hot air balloon.

I think it really just comes down to scale. Relative to other professions there aren't that many software engineers, but the work produced by each one has the potential to reach an extremely wide user base. Someone working at Google could write code that gets deployed on a billion devices. This is pretty clear when comparing between different software engineering roles as well. Companies that serve a global market pay significantly better than local companies.
On top of that, there's no supplies or logistics required for software engineering. It just takes one person and a computer, so expenses are minimal compared to other engineering disciplines.
The article says fossil fuels. Not all petrochemical derivatives.
You forgot the uh
You should use && instead of ; so that if the commit fails you don't still try to push
They were unequal events. I'm not sure what point you're trying to make by comparing the two, but in my eyes breaking into the capitol building with the intention of overthrowing the government is a significantly worse crime and I'm glad the people responsible are facing justice.
I'll say it again, all people responsible for a crime should be prosecuted. But stop trying to tell me apples are oranges.
It looks like there weren't many. I think everyone that committed a crime during the BLM protests should be held accountable. And I'm glad that the people that broke into the capitol on Jan 6 are being held accountable. Surely you agree with that?
Thousands of BLM protestors have been arrested: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/02/22/fact-check-thousands-black-lives-matter-protesters-arrested-2020/6816074001/. I didn't have to look very hard to find this. It's simple - break the law, get arrested. Keep pushing your agenda though.
That's only true if people that work in offices reproduce at a higher rate than the general population, and I'm not entirely sure that's the case. If anything, societal trends have shown that in more developed countries where office work would be more common people are having fewer kids and populations are starting to decline.
True. I was thinking of the selective pressures of nature, but there are absolutely still self imposed selective forces acting on our species.
You're implying windshields weren't built at an angle until the 2000s? That's complete bullshit.
According to Google a hot air balloon costs $150-250. I'm not sure where you live, but in the US that seems completely reasonable to do for a unique experience.
