Also, the groundswell of awareness about Israel that has torn institutions of the evangelical right apart (such as TPUSA) largely originated on the left.

Which is wild to me because the right wing used to be jew-hating while the left wing feared being described as antisemitic, and I would have therefore sworn it would go the other way.

I figure the right will remember their roots if they don't get a rapture soon, though.

Disagree. Why should people get a pass from accountability so long as they whitelist?

RO wastes water. A really efficient rig only wastes about (side note, why the fuck does Google always think I'm trying to write "Scott" for "about"? Talk about a failure of statistical analysis) 8 gallons for every gallon produced... Not a big deal for most households for drinking water, and it can still go to the garden, but a big problem for a whole house system.

Training the robots' models in a simulation before training them in the real world won't make them safer. In fact if anything it will make them less safe due to their earliest training being subtly different from reality. What it does is make it cheaper and less dangerous to train them, and faster because you can run the simulation faster than reality.

The fact is that pure capitalism doesn't work sustainably, so you have to do un-capitalistic things to sustain it. Antitrust is one of those.
