I personally think we’re on the slope of enlightenment - quantum computing no longer attracts as much hype as it used to, but in the background, there’s a lot of interesting developments that genuinely might be very important.

Wow, a calamity of epic proportions, who could’ve predicted it? /s

But for real, plastic manufacturers have a lot to answer for.

This makes so much sense to me - Iran joining in would give an invitation to USA, EU, etc. to join in with Israel, and take away focus from Israel’s war crimes and genocide to instead focus on the new bad guy.

Look, I understand your point. And to be fair, they genuinely are reading new ground with reusable rockets. But not only are competitors catching up, cost overruns and time delays do matter in the context of NASA, considering how their budgets keeps getting negatively affected and the Artemis project is suffering setbacks. They don’t have the scope to tolerate what’s happening.

I’m referring to the rockets intended for travelling to the moon and beyond (primarily the Starship), which has already failed thrice, has innumerable issues and massive cost overruns.

Considering SpaceX’s track record… I’m very eager for Elon and his other billionaire buddies to get on a rocket headed for Mars.

It makes sense - even after the inflation numbers go down, it just means that the prices have increased by less compared to before, not that prices went down - people have seen an erosion in spending power, which leads to negative sentiment towards the economy.

And the worst part? The money won’t come out of the police department’s budget, it’ll come out of education, housing, recreation, etc.

lol, looks like Elon Fuck’s brown nosing has failed miserably.

To be fair, the Azerbaijani government hates Armenia plenty enough even without Turkey being involved.

These points are all absolutely correct, and generally follow a trend of protectionism sweeping across the globe, but there’s also a genuine concern about how Tiktok shapes public POV based on CCP decisions(for example, suppressing content about the excessive Covid lockdown, the Uyghur and Tibetan genocide, and suppression of Hui Muslims, Hong Kong and other minorities in China).

In my case, it was to increase the number of available job opportunities rather than any genuine interest.

This is absolutely true - honeybee populations are already bouncing back thanks to numerous counter measures, but native bee populations continue to decline. Honeybees cannot pollinate all native plant species native bees do, and even when they can, their generalist nature makes them inefficient for many plants.
