The sarcasm might have been lost on the author. One can never be too sure these days. :-)

What a terrible article. The solution is throwing more subsidies? Of course it’s not! The solution is making it illegal to own more than a few properties. It really is that easy.

Maybe you’re making an apples to oranges comparison. But anyway, nobody I know thinks Apple has good intentions with regard to their data.

Depends when and where. Avoid summer or winter vacation. If you’re doing Kyoto, visit temples very early in the day to avoid crowds. Or perhaps find slightly less famous places.

Sure, and if there were discussions of reducing all tourists, that would be great. But it’s just racism. Meh.

And you did not write it, not before, and not now. So it’s hard to give more insightful feedback than what everyone here already wrote.

That’s not a great way to get good information from the community.

How many hours did you practice? What did you practice? These are fundamental questions for any new instrumental hobby.

If you are doing everything solo, it’s easy to have misplaced expectations or a bad practice menu, or even worse, no solid practice menu at all. Screwing around is cool once you have a basic level of proficiency.

But also, it’s OK to try it and later realize that you don’t like it.

That’s eight. Not to recommend them, only to note what made my life exciting

Of course they are, because now you have this whole affair to write about. You were good enough to graduate from Harvard, so good that you got famous because of your just actions, and then you got a degree from somewhere else.

If you want to work at some unethical company, they might not take you, but if if it’s a place that has some semblance of integrity, then your resume is rock solid.

What a terrible article. A polarized solution: either the dangerous rice or nothing… As if no other possible food sources could exist or could ever have been considered. And nobody saw this coming, and nobody had any backup plans.

The backup plan was to blame Greenpeace and throw their hands in the air, magically absolved of any responsibility. Jesus.

There are libraries full of articles, but only a fraction of a percent of those are actually exciting. I’m looking for ones that catch the reader’s attention.

Of course he had bombshells to drop. All of the things that he had done through the legal system were done in the hopes of achieving legal victory. When that process ended, the next step would be the court of public opinion. There’s an awfully big difference in impact on the general public versus reading what someone wrote and hearing them talk about it live on TV or the internet. When you can ask them questions and get detailed answers, that adds a greater level of weight to the entire issue.

It’s interesting that you would bring up half of the timeline and ignore the other half. You know, the part where problems happening to airplanes in the very recent past connects with actions that happened 7 years ago. When people want explanations for what’s going wrong now, of course they’re going to want to talk to people who were around when it started to go awry.

And I’m not saying you’re right or wrong about the accuracy of the police investigation. But I do think your analysis of the pressures on him and the current public climate is inaccurate.

Will there be any consequence to the college’s administrators for inviting this man to speak? It seems to me that the nuns have an ethical duty to take what action they can in order to make sure this type of thing doesn’t happen at that institution ever again, if they have any such power, and if they don’t, they need to make clear that the college is disreputable.

Even if Lindsey Graham was right about everything he said, and of course he’s not, then at worst we would have a situation where Tiger Woods is suspected of tax fraud. If so, great. File charges against him. File charges against all rich people who commit tax fraud.

It’s a nice dream, isn’t it? But Lindsey Graham can’t even imagine it.

Big businesses are perfectly capable of releasing financial documents indicating what branches are making and losing money. If they don’t do so, there’s a good reason for it. Often that reason involves them doing things that are either shady or lying to the public about what’s actually happening.

We should not give them the benefit of the doubt in situations like this, because we would only be feeding their manipulation tactics.

Right, that is your experience. And I’m telling you that there are cast iron fry pans that can defeat wire brushes, both manual and ones you attach to your power drill. (Of course it’s up to you if you want to believe me. There’s no particular reason to believe some random stranger online, but then again, there’s no obvious benefit for me to lie about it.)

That really depends on the condition of the pan. I’ve had some where power tools were insufficient.

Can I cheat? Ursula K LeGuin’s first famous book, A Wizard of Earth sea, was published in 1968. Amazing stuff. Also I love her short story, The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas.

What do you even mean? By that standard everyone is obnoxious.

Or perhaps you think the lightweight religious folk are magically less obnoxious? I dunno.

This is not just Aso. His party believes it’s OK to think and act like that.
