Inheritance is clearly societal ill, and even on a personal level, depending on inheritance might cause family troubles

- Comment on How Self-Driving Cars will Destroy Cities (and what to do about it) 5 weeks ago:
That’s a good point to illustrate the importance of banning cars for personal transportation; all of the traffic is making your partner’s job slower and more stressful

It’s common to call products dumb when they have the marketing strategy of tricking gullible people into thinking they need it.

I see, my favorite podcast (“A History of Rock Music in 500 Songs”)[500songs.com] has no ads. I’d strongly recommend if your interested in that kind of music

Do you have a link to the scientific paper(s) that this article references?

- Comment on After is a new dating app that tries to tackle ghosting 2 months ago:
If you’re doing it over an app, without the chance for the person you’re dumping to respond, I see no risk of things turning nasty
- Comment on Eza: A modern, maintained replacement for ls 4 months ago:
ls is actively maintained. The headline is referencing exa, which is unmaintained. eza is a fork of exa.
- Comment on Why are US states, school districts banning smartphones in schools? 5 months ago:
In the US you sometimes hear that phones in class are necessary to see if your kids are OK in a school shooting scenario.
I think this isn’t a good argument, since school shootings are rare, and it’s unclear if each student having a phone would do more harm than good in that kind of situation.

- Comment on Electric Aviation is already better than you think - Volts with David Roberts 5 months ago:
Short haul flights should probably be high speed train rides anyway
- Comment on Just 2 people. 8 months ago:
I think OP believes every town in the US has twice as many homeless people as churches, it doesnt need to be exactly 1 church and 2 homeless people.
But either way, that’s probably not true. Since homeless people tend to be in larger cities.
But then again, lots of people become homless in the suburbs and then move to the city to get the social services. If churches in the suburbs housed a few people as they become homeless, it would probably help. It’s better to keep people in their communities so they have a better chance of returning to housefullness.
But probably not that much, since homelessness rates are strongly correlated with housing prices, so expensive cities create more homelessness than cheap suburbs.
