Everyone else is focusing on whether the rest of the world uses metric and not that fact that water pressure at a given faucet or shower head will be governed by bernoullis equation which will take 99 things into account such as:

The max height of the water reservoir

The height of your faucet

The design of the pipes leading from the reservoir to your faucet

Air pressure

The pumps in the system

Etc

But he led a conspiracy to certify fake electors. That required records. So we still got him, right?

Let’s build a museum past the moon!

Tourism is part of capitalism. You are correct.

OK but why aren’t they contacting this person? If an offered is not accepted or whatever, HR should have some record of who the other top contenders would be.

But unless of course hiring isn’t a priority and then who knows. Which is the actual accusation.

States are the original gerrymandering.

Imagine if we redrew the state maps every few years. Oh no, my speed limit went down, I have to pay five cents per bag at the store, and the gax tax is not ten cents more per gallon. 😱😱😱

But then November roles around and my vote is way more powerful than it was because now 2 million people are election a senator and in my old state 50 million are also electing a senator.

States obviously used to have cultural sway but pretending they are real in 2024 is absolutely hilarious.

Gerrymandering is just the cherry on top. Well, the cherry in the House.

Definitely the simplest answer and aligns so far with out observations.

You used the word “just”.

I guess my angle is if we agree the market isn’t just, then maybe you just pay everyone equally? Don’t all people need to eat and have a place to sleep?

Candle or incense. Sure. I think someone who grew up Orthodox could say for sure.

The kids don’t have hats. Does she hate her kids??

So if it makes sense to charge people in India 1/4 the people in the US why can’t we pretend we are in India? People travel to other continents for healthcare.

Just?

Like divide profit by a weighted hours worked average for all employees?

I don’t think so, but they have also used their shadow docket more and more to do things that are unprecedented. It’s not 100% unbelievable.

Sadly I think original jurisdiction of SCOTUS means they could choose to jump the line and hear the case. However it would be unprecedented to do so as a) they don’t have time to review every state felony case and b) his lawyers have yet to actually make a case that the trial was performed wrongly.

But in this case, Trump does want an appeal, but probably can’t wait til June '25 to have it

The implication is clear. The art of the deal?

As others pointed out, a lot of factors would go into this decision. How many working hours can she normally put in if the average client only pays for an hour? How much time does she have to spend cleaning herself up between? How much risk is there in taking a new client?

Its pretty similar to working freelance compared to a paycheck. If I wanted to go on my own as a freelancer I could probably charge 2-3x my hourly salary rate as a freelancer. But I’d have to hunt for my next meal. I’d have to figure out all my 1099s. I’d have to change stragies to get new clients… Or I can just work my current corpo job making an OK salary but always know I have a paycheck coming and insurance.

My friend was upset about this making it to SCOTUS a few weeks ago. How can the courts suspend your 2nd amendment rights before a trial?

Well what is a gag order? What is contempt of court? It turns out when you are credibly accused and/or indicted for certain crimes courts ARE allowed to constrain your constitutional rights, when their is good reason, while the court proceedings go along.

This would be as stupid as letting the dealer keep his bricks of heroine until which time a lab can check and double check that it’s indeed heroin.

Fucking bonkers that someone on trial for a shooting/death threats would be able to KEEP THEIR GUNS.

Thomas is clearly insane.

Nvidia makes a real product. An AI bubble might hurt them but probably not the same as the companies who have been buying their product.

Whatever the fuck podcast popularized the idea that blue just didn’t exist? Yeah stupid.

I do believe there is some relationship between one’s main language and how it affects thought patterns, but I mean cmon, even if I don’t know every word for shades of green (avocado VS chartreuse) doesn’t mean I’m not capable of distinguishing them. I may not have an exacting language tool set for distinguishing them. But I could.
