Me, ages 6 - 20: Most people are just really, really dumb, like animals
Me, age 20-50: People aren't so bad, I need to be nicer and less arrogant
Me, post-2016: I had it right as a kid - most people are really, really dumb

1st grade, my son was assigned to write poem about his favorite color:
"Black.
Black is the color of midnight.
Black is a color that's all right.
Black is the color of the deep dark sea.
Black is the color that's inside me."
That generated a call from the teacher!

Like Musk, I too was a bullied nerd in school and had a domineering father.
Unlike Musk, I got over it.

Call me crazy, I would not want to be born to a mother that, but for the law, would have aborted me. That life would have a high risk of being miserable. Thus I would want to be conceived in a pro choice world.

Don't take this the wrong way, but there was another kid I went to kindergarten with who was super clingy and cried for 3 solid days at beginning of the school year and he actually turned into a murderer as an adult.

I'm a former NIH-funded scientist, and I strongly disagree. Translating science into policy requires weighing value judgments, something that the scientific process simply can't answer. This weakens the credibility of science in the public eye.

A neighbor, who I don't really know, got in my car, mistakenly thinking I was the Uber he had called. I freaked the eff out - it escalated to screaming in seconds - both of us were very confused.

Seriously, Pharma has studied "promising" traditional medicines, and if they really worked, they would patent it and manufacture it as a drug and make money. But every time they've tried that, the herbal remedy is useless, or at best, underwhelming.

They were allowed to exist as a separate identity by the fairly tolerant Ottomans. As Dhimmi, were subjected to certain restrictions (had to live in certain neighborhoods and couldn’t work for govt) and paid higher taxes.

Not surprising to me. My father was raised very poor, got a PhD in chemistry and became upper level management at a large company. He was super critical of poor people - his thinking was, if he got out of poverty, why couldn't the rest?

From the outside, this sounds like this kind of mentality is super prevalent in the arts sphere. All these people signing the letter of denunciation seem scared, scared for the loss of their precarious reputations if they are on the "wrong" side of an issue.

In the black community, it's not always fathers who don't stick around. A lot of times the woman deliberately gets pregnant because they want a baby - they have casual unprotected sex, and may not even tell the father they are pregnant.

Although this compared a very low (1500 meq) diet to standard care (still low sodium, just not crazy low). Shows diminishing returns.
I'm sure patients eating tons of salt would still do badly.

They did not take land by force. Israel and Palestinians were each given land by UN decree in 1947. Arab countries immediately all flipped out and attacked Israel (Arabs lost), attacked again in 1956, again in 1967 (Arabs lost badly), again in 1973, and ever since.
