That's not really a relevant argument here as insulin costs <$5 to manufacture.

I think it just is a regular two-lane roundabout? We have one of these nearby me in Cleveland, it works pretty well.

>“But given your access to the MTA map on the MTA website, and the substantial similarities of your map to the MTA map, the only rational conclusion is that your map is based on the MTA Vignelli map.”

>But there is a potentially critical flaw in that logic. The MTA created The Weekender in 2011, two years after Berman created his map, which he uploaded to Wikipedia in 2009.

There needs to be consequences for such blatant fraud and abuse of the DMCA, ridiculous claims like this have gotten so common.

Do they also charge people who drink, are overweight, don't exercise? Seems odd to only single out smoking.

My perspective - I do not want to see ads relevant to my interests. If I want to buy something that I care about I'll do my own due diligence for what a good product is. I don't want to be lied to and distracted by junk marketing trying to convince me I should buy something.

"Devin Nunes' Cow" is obviously a satire account. As the judge ruled, a cow clearly can not tweet so nobody reasonably can believe that is actually his cow.

"ZweinerforTexas.com", "ZweinerforTx.com" are not obviously satire, they look like normal campaign urls and are clearly made to deceive.

For people interested, the series (and tv show) is called "The Expanse".

Those sound like failed businesses that should close down if they cant function without exploiting their workers.

>The exclusion of sex from gender is an extremely recent development that isn't widely accepted yet.

This is not an extremely recent development in the slightest, the distinction was being made almost 60 years ago in modern dictionaries.

I don't know if I would say recently, this distinction started becoming used in the early 60s which was almost 60 years ago.

Gender identity is an emergent social construct, there isn't anything biological about it.

Is THC also bad for pregnant trans men? I suspect it is, so pregnant persons is more accurate.

In the US elections are run by the states, and unfortunately a certain consistent set of them are well known for making it extremely difficult for certain groups of people to vote. Since voter ids would be given by the states, there is historical evidence to suggest those specific states can not be trusted to not use said ids as a way to discriminate against those they do not want to vote.

So the answer is to throw our hands in the air and give up because our ancestors did something we now to be extremely harmful so we have to let everyone else do it too?

If you asked, most people who are arguing for sanctions on Brasil would also support sanctions on America for pulling out of the Paris Agreement.

>if you’re going to criticise someone clean up your own house first.

Is a terrible attitude to have and will never lead to any solutions.

Actually yes, it has been shown effective:

>We find that the ban worked for Reddit. More accounts than expected discontinued using the site; those that stayed drastically decreased their hate speech usage—by at least 80%. Though many subreddits saw an influx of r/fatpeoplehate andr/CoonTown “migrants,” those subreddits saw no significant changes in hate speech usage. In other words,other subreddits did not inherit the problem. We conclude by reflecting on the apparent success of the ban,discussing implications for online moderation, Reddit and internet communities more broadly

Considering fingerprint analysis is pseudoscience and almost entirely made up (along with most other "forensic science") [1] [2] we can assume LOTS AND LOTS of innocent people are caught with "fingerprint data"

>"There is some evidence that fingerprints are unique to each person, and it is plausible that careful analysis could accurately discern whether two prints have a common source, the report says. However, claims that these analyses have zero-error rates are not plausible; uniqueness does not guarantee that two individuals' prints are always sufficiently different that they could not be confused, for example. Studies should accumulate data on how much a person's fingerprints vary from impression to impression, as well as the degree to which fingerprints vary across a population. With this kind of research, examiners could begin to attach confidence limits to conclusions about whether a print is linked to a particular person."

I remember listening to a segment on NPR where it was claimed this was already solved and the "sonic attacks" were actually caused by a specific species of cricket:

Be careful, you also run the risk of getting assassinated by drone strike like Anwar al-Awlaki did.

Yes, I work on the search team at my work and we extensively use Elasticsearch for many different search services.

>I haven't figured out how they are still releasing a new game every year - they really should be releasing every season, or really, every team, as a DLC. The content is where it is at, not the engine.

This is easy. People pay full price every year for the new version which contains a bare minimum of changes compared to the previous (not including the roster changes). Why would they cut that gravy train off? Presumably a yearly DLC would not be priced as a full game.

Finish the season of Narcos: Mexico first

In the next sentence

>District police chief Aidil Bolhassan concedes the results may have changed during the time the poll was active as more people learned of her death.

Don't make your repos public if you don't want people reading them

>Surely if people know they could be fined thousands for simple treatments like stitches they avoid medical care altogether?

This is what happened to myself. I've had persistent breathing problems and the last time I went to a specialist for it they charged me $3,000 to breathe in a tube for 15 seconds and say they don't have any ideas as to what was wrong. I haven't been back and try to ignore the fact that I have trouble breathing daily.

I only opened up the "500 Index Fund" PDF but it was interesting to note that they voted against almost every proposal that was brought by shareholders

That massive ban-wave was pushed by entities such as Sky who don't have an interest in American sports streams

I was able to quickly get the CSV file as well.

The javascript is located at SITE/counter.js

My first guess for the CSV was SITE/counter.csv

It worked.

>The obvious easy thing to do from a PR perspective is to ground the planes

I don't think that is the case. The FAA and Boeing both said this plane is safe and approved it for use. They would look like complete idiots if they now turn around and say they were wrong and it would put a lot of focus on why and how they came to that initial conclusion that the plane was safe.

They are doubling down on their safety claim and are refusing to admit they could have made a mistake at the expense of potentially hundreds of lives.
