Don't mention landlords, unless followed by "... deserve the guillotine."
My first thought was that no one deserves to be shot while giving a speech, but has anyone asked what he was saying at the time of the shooting? It's not victim blaming to say spouting hateful rhetoric kind of brings it on yourself. Doesn't have street smarts to do it in that kind of country with those kind of gun owners around.
My wife and I laughed so hard we couldn't breathe when creating a now-persistent universe with a rivalry between Fart U and Fart Tech.
And in case you were wondering where I stand...those damn ivy league farters would rather sit around and study farts than get out there and actually create. Fart Tech woo!
An even better title would be "'Study' by firm pushing new technique finds old technique is bad."
Ehhhh...Kanban is much older than Agile even if they tried to subsume it and say it's an agile technique, so that's sort of right. But kanban vs "scrum" - which virtually everyone means when they say "agile" - is fair.
He didn't appoint anyone to the NY state supreme court.
Well John Oliver did a whole episode on this like two years ago. Maybe then.
What @[email protected] said below, but instead I'd recommend You Need A Budget (YNAB). YNAB is amazing, and despite not liking paying for subscription services, I keep using it and not getting firefly (and I do self host my own things). It's like $100 a year and will save you far more than that if you use it correctly. Check them out: http://www.youneedabudget.com
Make sure to read their intro stuff on why they recommend doing things the way they do, as active budgeting isn't for everyone.
Oh man, Street Complete is very cool, thanks! I always wanted to contribute to OSM but found it a bit daunting. This is like Pokemon Go but useful!
Hear hear! The government should completely get out of marriage and leave it to religion, or completely go in on encouraging marriage (actually domestic partnerships) between whoever if we think it's going to be good for communities. Before Obergefell I would've said marriage is old, let religions have it. Encouraging people to take part in their community, have close ties with benefits like hospital visitation, tax breaks, etc should all be domestic partnership based, and we should've made everyone get domestic partnered - marriage should have conferred no civic benefits. As is, we have a weird hybrid religious and civic thing called marriage but at least everyone has access now.
But yeah as far as encouraging families we should do the same incentive wise with having kids and immigration to help with our birth rate problems, and continue trying to make home ownership more affordable (and more varied - looking at you missing middle housing) and encouraging it to again, incentivize investing in local communities. Civic policy like this stuff gets jumbled and we should be more clear about what we want to incentivize and why.
I am shocked I had to scroll this far to find someone saying this stuff exists. Literally look around on Lemmy, check the comment section of the Washington Post, like half of TikTok, a huge portion of twitter, etc. All of it full of angry radical liberals, actual communists, people crying for guillotines, deriding uneducated hicks and rednecks. Mocking all christians instead of just the fundamentalists, constantly deriding white men for existing, even just dumb infantile names (e.g. Repug-licans). Literally last night at my local college, some portion of protestors started calling for lynching college administrators. Now I'm not saying pro-palestinian protests are full of those people, just like the average liberal would be pretty ok with universal healthcare but miiiight not favor seizing the means of production or banning landlords. But even though these people are a minority, they're just like the crazy right wingers - they are loud, and paint with the same wide brush that hardcore conservatives do, just using a different color.
And I want to be clear, this isn't some enlightened centrism bullshit where I'm saying "both sides suck." I am actually very, very left wing (though on Lemmy sometimes it seems like that makes me a moderate because I'm not calling for guillotining the rich, but I digress), and I probably agree with 90% of the angry people's actual policy views. But at least anger and vitriol wise, and even a tiny portion of radical policy-wise, the fringe of "both sides" do kind of suck. Not everyone who is angry fits that profile (certainly I get angry thinking about climate change, but I'm not out there telling everyone who drives a truck they're evil). But many people like that absolutely exist, and OP not seeing them likely is a result of our fractured echo chamber world, certainly not because they aren't there and angry.
Average American man is 5'9.3" (and has been around for a long time). So not only is the graph misleading it's just wrong.
In case anyone was wondering, within America: White 5'10", Black 5' 9", Asian and Hispanic around 5'7".
