Of course scientists got tired of all of these jokes and renamed Uranus in 2620 to Urectum.
No, but there is an issue if you walk into the local Lexus dealership with enough to buy an LS600 and they will only sell you an ES350 used because of your zip code.
And I've been in IT and tech for 25+ years and I've worked with women who were outstanding and "rockstars" and it would be my pleasure to work with (or for, or manage) any of them again. They were smart and their skills matched or even exceeded the top performing males. So, sorry to say Mr. Anonymous, but your anecdotal world is small.
Wow. Not one mention to the windfall all the airlines would get once everyone has to check one bag because they carry electronics. $25/electronics bag x 100 passengers that would normally not check anything - easy money.
Actually you missed on this one. Mr. Trump has decided to use Twitter as a way to be in communication in his capacity as President of the United States. In addition, he has used his own Twitter ID instead of the POTUS one that was established for these communications. As such, this becomes a channel to reach a government official and selective blocking of that channel becomes a Constitutional issue. The White House Press Secretary has confirmed that official pronouncements come from the RealDonaldTrump account, so he is now SOL with regards to trying to say it is private/personal.
Actually that Manna story is a bit closer to reality than you think. We are now in the realm of self-driving automobiles - 8 years to get bugs out of the system sounds quite feasible. And the expense is coming down significantly - it is already in the $50k cars, so it will trickle down to the $25k cars fairly quickly. Don't look at it as to what the employee will pay, look at the ROI from an employer's standpoint. A robot that does the work of a minimum wage employee that does not require training and pays for itself in about 15 months... look at what was science fiction in 2000... and then look today.
Doesn't change the underlying numbers, Anon. (and no, it isn't really an alternate to Breitbart. I don't recall Breitbart ever publishing retractions when they get it wrong, nor do they publish original sources for the material they are using when doing the weighing or the reasoning behind the conclusions that were reached which allow for discussions on methodology)
80% of rulings overturned in 2015? From the kindly folks at politifact:
The 9th Circuit is by far the largest circuit. In the 12 months leading up to March, 31, 2015, just under 12,000 cases were filed in the 9th Circuit — more than 4,000 more than the next-largest circuit, the 5th Circuit. Despite that gigantic docket, the Supreme Court heard just 11 cases from the 9th Circuit in 2015, reversing eight.
So, if you look at the total numbers (which you have to to match the statement you made), the Supreme Court only overturned 8 out of about 12000 rulings. (or
I hope in real life you don't deal with math like "give someone 80% of a dosage of 5% solution" or anything else that relies on numbers.

Wait. You were serious. Let me laugh louder...

Lies, Damn Lies and Statistics. Ignoring facts like I'm certain if you look at the poverty level where the people in Chicago were killed it's probably fairly high. Also the part where the population is most likely >80% African American. And the part where violence has been stirred.. and how many of the killed were part of gang or other subsets where there is a tendency to step outside the realm of lawsuits?
