Like, I get his point that experience beats expertise, and some experts don't really know any more than the general public. But he drives the point so hard that his later work is unreadable. He'll devote more time to bullying some breed of academic than he will to making his actual point.
I just went to DDG, and searched "cats !gi" and it did a google image search.
As for results - I find DDG has good results for most things. Sometimes it's better than google. Occasionally worse. So it's helpful to have the bang when i need it.
Yes, it will remain a metonym.
> I am not American, nor live in US and never been or worked in/for Silicon Valley and yet this is how I feel about it.
All that means is the area has done a good job of branding itself.
He just lied about having "funding secured" to take tesla private, like, a few days ago.
Human societies don't work like this, and never had. People aren't meant to live in a world where everything is public. You are advocating for a very dangerous and unhealthy transformation.
Why not do both?
[edit: yeah i'm being dumb. i felt the discussion was being derailed, but thats no reason to yell at strangers on the internet.]
- Jazz didn't begin to die on Kind of Blue. That was a popular, well selling jazz record. Rather than setting Jazz on a path to irrelevance, Kind of Blue reinvigorated the genre and inspired an abundance of accessible and innovative material in the years following its release.
- Alice Coltrane is not the "Yoko Ono" of Jazz. She made a lot of good records. And Yoko Ono isn't bad for that matter. I like her solo music better than John's.
- Many people besides music critics and academics enjoy Coltrane's late period. Some of us like abrasive, chaotic music.
The first amendment would prevent them from regulating search results.
The problem is, many authoritarian countries have something like the first amendment in their constitutions. Constitutions mean nothing unless they're enforced. This president has already shown disdain for our constitution and the rule of law.And his public behavior is slowly eroding the democratic norms that reinforce our constitution.
Just look at all the newbie GOP politicians who imitate him, the senators who make excuses for him, and all his supporters who cheer on his authoritarian tendencies. They're not going to stop him if he crosses the line. So who will?
That's why we can't just sit back and pretend things will fix themselves. You have a chance to change things this November. Don't waste it.
By that logic, you shouldn't care about Mozilla because you can just download another browser.
But that's not true. Venmo and Firefox have an impact on the larger world, whether you use them or not. Both should be criticized. But criticizing the messenger does not excuse the behavior of the other.
This shouldn't happen in a country with a free press. We're (yet again) moving into authoritarian territory. So why is everyone acting so non-nonchalantly here? This is not normal behavior for a democratically elected leader.
I hope everyone who can plans on voting in the mid terms. Only congress can rein this guy in. The congressional races are more competitive than normal this year, so we have a real chance of making a change.
