Don’t mistake aggregate with individual responses. In aggregate a survey sample might result in a sum of 98% are Muslim, Catholic or Jewish but no individual selected that sum. We could imagine a scenario where each individual chose one of those as a large majority, for example.

That said, it is true that many people really don’t understand data and it’s implications and tend to consistently overestimate many unlikely probabilities. Source: I teach statistics…

Some public water naturally has flouride in it without adding it. IIRC it was high flouride well water in Colorado that revealed its benefits You can also use flouride rinses or just not rinse after brushing. This doesn’t help kids though, which as I understand it are the primary beneficiaries of flouride in waterr.

Of course it is, along with the Administration ignoring a judge’s order. The point is that this DOJ will not prosecute it. AG Bondi had made that clear.

Exactly who are you thinking would bring criminal charges? The DOJ certainly won’t. His family might get some sort of civil judgement. Possibly a civil rights case filed with a state?

That is one reason to do tariffs. However, as someone who’s consulted in a variety of industries, it’s stupid to do non-targeted tariffs like this. There’s no way this is going to rebuild industry on shore in the US, exactly as you say. That takes years or decades to even build up an infrastructure and a supply chain, not to mention that, at least recently, we’ve had low unemployment rates and no one to work the jobs anyway.

The CHIPS act was a better way to do it. If you believe you need to re-onshore an industry, then give multiple years’ warning before implementing tariffs and provide support for redeploying domestic production capacity. However, for some strange reason, the Republicans don’t like that act.

I think your general point may be correct, but remember that tariffed countries don’t pay anything, it is the US importers that pay and pass that along to US consumers.

The guy behind Wing Commander (and my favorite game of all time, Privateer) has a mission based space flight game out next year. You can see the first hour of gameplay here: https://youtu.be/1H-0x4xk2Xk

Keep in mind, cutscenes are in-engine not pre-rendered.

Proud to say that in Colorado, ranked choice voting is on the ballot this year! It’s even supported by the big political names here, including the governor.

Which is why I am happy to be a metallurgical engineer who can blacksmith…

Widdershins. It means counter to the sun’s direction , and was seen as inauspicious. Counter-clockwise, before clocks.

Proud to be a supporter of CPR…

Did you even read Sotomayor’ dissent? I did.

You are not considering the part where we can’t use relevant testimony or documents to prove that what the President does is illegal in the first place. The President can just say whatever illegal things they did were official acts, and all the evidence that might prove otherwise is off-limits. It relies on other people in the administration to not follow the illegal order, but of course that is a weak protection and the President can fire them or do something illegal to them without consequence too.

After you've had the Ultimate Love Affair that has broken you, leaves you certain love has been poisoned in your system, then, and only then, can you be saved and uplifted by the Post-Ultimate Love Affair. - Harlan Ellison http://www.baen.com/Chapters/ERBAEN0072/ERBAEN0072.htm

Well to be fair to the actual journalists, a lot of those articles are published by random people with an agenda that are labeled “Contributor” as opposed to staff.

Shrug maybe they could. They have yet to prove it in the real world in the US, as you mentioned.

I like that my ISP has no profit motive and is driven solely by customer/taxpayer satisfaction.

I wouldn’t like it if it became a political football, but so far so good. I think its safe for now because it is the same network used by the fire and police departments. Comcast really tried to kill it off.

I love my Model O Glorious mouse. Adjustable dpi super dependable.
