It's a lot easier to deal with a small grease fire than vaporized ethanol around an open flame.

Uh huh that's why all people blinded by bad moonshine are living healthy with full eyesight and no other negative affects, just like people that ate some bad fish
> In asymmetric drone warfare stronger economies can nearly “costlessly” conquer less wealthy economies.
Iran vs US shows the opposite. Stronger economy is a huge vulnerability, low human life cost is a big advantage. Economy matters a lot, but if one country can allow itself to lose 80% of it's resources in the war, and another will capitulates long before 5% loss, the first will win no matter the size of the economy.
That is why schools should have physical punishments. "What is the purpose of learning this? What a stupid question? To not get additional lashes, obviously"
Right now mathematicians are freaking out because they think the AI will make them useless and they will have to go find real job with real usefulness.
But honestly mathematicians have been totally useless long before the first AI, so generally nothing have changed for them.
The entire cryptographic underpinning of the Internet is based on mathematics that, when I learned it as an undergraduate in the 1980's, was considered just an impractical curiosity. Non-Euclidean geometry became special relativity. Math underpins all science - "totally useless" phooey.
When I learned it as an undergraduate way later, entire cryptographic underpinning of the Internet were based on pretty trivial mathematics. Trivial to that extent, that if mathematicians wouldn't create those math, then it would be created by engineers designing cryptography along the way. So even there mathematicians were totally useless.
Wait, what? Aren't that bill literally supposed to do exactly the opposite?
"Are you selling the games? Here are your new duties and obligations, and tomorrow you will get even more, get ready to publish source code or something! What, your game only on paid subscription? Guess what? Keep doing what you are doing, that bill has nothing to do with you!"
> I definitely would not describe implementation of solar as "fanatical" by most governments
Idk, when you because of that implementation, for 20 years pay for the energy 10 times more comparatively to coal generated energy, that seems pretty fanatical by me.
Like what? There is no things that will get an average engineer or lawyer better result in the future than retraining and adjusting their living standards.
> I'm already a part of a generation that's the first in American history to have a lower standard of living than their parents.
Good. While US dominance over the world and it's ability to rob other countries will continue to decrease, your living standards will continue to decrease
as well.
No, it is not. Not more dangerous than rice stir‑frying
> methanol poisoning is real
Ethanol is antidot. So again, your chances to severely poison yourself not much higher than if you instead of alcohol were doing Japanese cuisine.
