Because most conservatives believe that charity is a private, not government matter.

This is could be a reason that religious folks and conservatives donate much more to charity, even though their income is less [1].

For cases like childcare, they believe that burdened families are best served by a close community coming together to help each other, rather than government programs.

> The law actually calls the fetus a "child," and takes foregranted that the woman "is with child"

And yet... If the woman is harmed, it's treated as if you harmed a human (eye for an eye), but if the fetus is harmed, there's a fine. It's quite clear that the fetus is not anywhere near the same importance in this law, not that this should have anything to do with modern law.

> printers aren't needed by most people, and those who do need them don't need as much ink

Cool anecdote. Here in Brazil, some small shops and cybercaffes will offer copy/printing services to you for a small change. That's usually where people go if they have to print/scan something. BTW this service is also know as Xerox.

I saw some shops running on retail printers, but most use those printers you can just fill with cheap ink.
Only something like 20 states will have abortion illegal after this decision.
The issue the GP is referring to is how the way our electoral process is set up people with more land have more voice in government. In effect, if you are rural your vote is worth more. This is an extreme in the Senate where a single person's vote has 1.5% of the power of a person in a different state (California vs. Wyoming).

And why do we give more voice to the rural vote? Sure they would be a minority otherwise, but so are left handed people and we don't give them more vote. Are they better informed politically than people who live in more densely populated areas? It doesn't really make much sense and I've never heard a argument stronger than "but then the cities would have a lot of political power" without explaining why that is a bad thing.

Riding the bullet train from Kyoto to Osaka, accidentally left my iPhone in the seatback pocket. Didn't realize it until way later, but was able to use find my phone to see that it was still powered on and had made its way all the way to the end of the line. Went to the local train station's lost and found, they called the other station where the phone had been turned in. They shipped it to where we were staying. I can't imagine ever getting my iphone back like that in the US.
I don't think it's necessarily a good assumption that people treat self-chosen avatar representations the same way they'd treat an actual human. It is common for people to use avatars in a type of expression that they wouldn't do in real life, and the participants may have been affected by this.

i.e. Avatars are free, fungible in quality, and those who choose those symbols they may be signaling an aspiration for these symbols. Rather than signaling an achievement for wealth or an appreciation for luxury, it may be signaling a desperation for wealth. Would the people who can actually afford luxury goods plaster those symbols on their avatars?
That would be a 4x10 which isn't the only option for a 4 day work week. TFA describes the council seeking a 20% reduction in hours worked at the same pay not a crunch of the same hours into a 20% smaller timespan.

> They actual problem caused by overturning Roe v Wade is that some states who's laws are already catholic will regain the power to stop abortions in their state.

Quite the motte and bailey you've got there. Do you think that this court will make an about-face and suddenly recognize the constitutionality of the Establishment clause? Textualist/originalist, my ass.
saying "SCOTUS didn't ban abortion" is at best useless semantic formality and at worst plain incorrect

a number of state have laws that the automatically make abortion illegal as soon as Roe was overturned, those are now enacted. furthermore, the case behind this ruling was dealing with a state law the effectively outlawed abortions, despite previous precedent ruling against it. this rule is simply enabling such behavior indirectly. this allows gives the green light for abortion to be targeted at the federal level, something which Republicans will be happy to do ASAP

to ignore the context of the surrounding case, and political motivations / backgrounds of the ruling justices is just ignorant. something like half of all states have now effectively illegal abortion
I might not understand your question. If life begins at conception, then of course a zygote is a human being and that zygote not making it would be a death by definition. Before implantation etc, you might never know that human being existed. So discovering you killed that zygote without knowing it isn't the same as abortion just like accidental manslaughter isn't murder.
So you only use a couple of sources, you never google for other job boards at all?
Yes, and the use of Catholic doctrine by politcal conservatives is cynical and selective.

That's what I meant— it's not as hard to find regular Catholic believers who are consistent in rejecting both abortion and the death penalty as a matter of their commitment to their religion as it is to find politicians who are the same way.
Where did I say anything about the legality of child abuse and neglect?
Bret has written so much at this point that he’s got the enviable problem of balancing how to introduce established concepts for new readers while not being repetitive for his existing readers.

On the video games front, that’s a big part of his writing: using pop culture as an entry point to learning about history. So yeah he kind of needs to lay it out in order to compare it to history. Usually smoother for movies and shows because there’s a narrative to work with vs just mechanics.

> If most people agree that it should be a constitutional right, no one stops the legislature from adding the required amendment

The issue is that we're forced into a two party system. If someone thinks "I want abortion rights, but the culture wars are more important to me" they vote republican. A large block of the republican base is single issue religious voters, so even if a majority of the republican voters want abortion rights they will never pass because the religious voters will primary anyone who supports abortion.
> via this all precious constitution of yours?

This reveals that you didn't ask in good faith.
In a lot of countries around the world, after the first trimester. I'm sure some existing abortion laws at the state level have similar restrictions.

Why use this sort of rhetoric? The legal backing of Roe v. Wade wasn't about that at all.

> If they actually thought there were half a million babies being murdered every year, tens of millions since Roe, they would have done something actively to stop it.

By that argument, no abolitionist except for John Brown actually believed that chattel slavery was wrong. No suffragettes except the anarchists actually believed that women should have the right to vote. No blacks in the USA in the 1960s actually believed they were equal in dignity with their white brothers.

Non-violent responses to violent outrages are a very Christian approach to the problems of evil. That doesn't mean there's no suffering involved. Pro-life activists are regularly arrested, assaulted, battered, and insulted. Pro-life organizations spend millions of dollars (gifted in charity by hundreds of thousands of pro-life people) every year helping woman who find themselves in difficult positions choose life and give their children a better life after birth. Time and treasure poured out for a cause are a better measure of the importance of a cause that the total weight of bullets expended in overcoming the other side.
> Nothing. There is no equivalency. Rural block voters can go about not getting same-sex marriages and not getting abortions and it won't impact anyone else, just like other people having same sex marriages and getting abortions doesn't impact them, aside from their desire to control how other people live their lives.

That's libertarian BS that misunderstands moral beliefs about collective "how society should be" as individualist "what actions I take." It's also usually hypocritical, as I'm guessing you wouldn't be fine with rural county clerks going about not registering same-sex marriages, since it "doesn't impact you."

I agree it would be difficult to force a pilot to fly a plane, in this way it's not quite analogous. However, imagine if by some miracle the plane is landed without the pilots help– passenger happens to be a pilot, stewardess talked over the radio how to execute a crash landing etc. Should the pilot be charged with any crime upon safely reaching the ground?
What is allowing the mother to die because abortion is against the law but "post birth" abortion? Or do you think that the lives of women already born should take a back seat to the potential life of a fetus?
With the optics of _compiled_ code, how do the various 8-bitters stack up? (6809/6811, 65C02, Z80, H8, ...)? One would have to account for the frequency allowed by the ISA at iso-technologies (which makes including AVR somewhat tricky).

I only have experience with Z80 and 65C02 and I believe the consensus is that a 4 MHz Z80 beats a 2 MHz 65C02, but neither is a particularly nice compiler target.

For me, it all started with Delicious (del.icio.us) but then it got bought by Yahoo!, which added unnecessary functionality and eventually the system died, got traded, sold, wherever. Either way, it became useless.

I transferred all of my links to Diigo, which had much the same functionality, but a LOT of extras. Diigo really focuses on the extras and I felt the weren't really interested in the features I considered for
Core.

I eventually realized that the guy who originally started del.icio.us was running a service called Pinboard. I checked it out, read his blog, saw how dedicated he was to providing a good service and being attentive to his customers and signed up. https://pinboard.in/ is a fantastic bookmarking service which ticks all the right boxes and doesn't try to be something it shouldn't. If you're tactical in your tagging you should be able to find your valuable links easily.

Do you have any examples? Unfortunately from my perspective, I cannot make sense of your statements.

OCaml typing is principal in all situation where type inference is decidable. The syntax for annotation for polymorphic functions is isomorphic between OCaml and Haskell.

If I take a random module in the standard library, let's say Array, 95% of the functions in this module are parametric polymorphic. I am thus genuinely puzzled by your statement that "OCaml programmers almost never write polymorphic functions".
We have several new parents at the company. For our last event, two attended and one did not. I think it depends on individual preference and spousal support.

It's worth considering that IVF fertility treatment often has discarded zygotes.
They also, crucially, have sizing beyond just S/M/L et c. but within each they have regular (fat) slim (kinda fat—this is me) and tall. I think I've even seen tall-slim and maybe one other size on there (do they have a Trim size for people who are actually skinny, or is that another brand I'm thinking of?)

That's a must for getting a decent fit for off-the-rack clothes. Even t-shirts.

Plus, they don't even put logos on their polos, which is the one place that actually-nice clothes can get away with a logo. They're not the best-constructed, but they're not terrible, and no logo. BB's polos are better-made and use nicer material but when I wear them I feel like a douche because of the stupid embroidered sheep logo. I think both favor tennis-tail though, which sucks if you like to wear them untucked.
You're comparing apples to oranges. Raindrop doesn't need to be installed (on desktop, different thing if you want to use their app on mobile). And it lets you categorize your stuff in folders _and_ tags and give each of them a representative icon. I've using this as a complement to the 'Saved' feature of Feedly and frankly despite the web ui being a little clunky it works really great.
I'm not a big crypto person. But I do think that it does one thing well, it enables the transmission of value digitally. The same way I can transmit a file to you over the internet, I can now transmit a crypto coin of value.

Now, personally I don't have a lot of issues with the prevailing system, venmo and similar apps. I don't have any issues buying what I need online since credit cards work and are widely available.

I suppose crypto could be useful for industries that are legal, but banks do not like engaging with. Like adult entertainment.
The court didn't "remove" gun laws yesterday. What they did was decide that states cannot have "may issue" laws and deny permits for arbitrary reasons. 2A is an enumerated right in the Constitution, and so there's a pretty high burden to restricting the exercise of that right. Incidentally, "may issue" laws traditionally were used to deny certain classes (usually black Americans) the ability to exercise their rights.

>Why are rights to guns more important than life but rights to bodily autonomy aren’t?

This new feature will fix that quandary

Different Question: can I point `mmctl` to your managed cloud instance (are the "free tiers" exempt from this ability but paid tiers allow this?), have it create a backup and restore that backup to a local Mattermost team (the OSS) instance? This is just to be able to migrate old team chats off the Mattermost cloud instance but retain the ability to quickly read them now and then if needed

This ruling will also let us democratically figure out whether sodomites should be jailed, whether interracial marriage should be banned, and whether contraception is legal. All of the prior court rulings on these topics stem from the principles that were overturned in this one.

And then, two years later, after we democratically figure those questions out, we can flip-flop on them, because we voted in a new legislature.
I moved from an urban are to a rural one. I now constantly feel like the rules of the county (permiting and all that) are being decided by people who have no clue whatsoever what it's like to live where I do. On top of this, you get people who are into doing things like redrawing the districts so that each one has an equal representation based on superficial characteristics like skin color while ignoring more pressing things like geography concerning wildfires and infrastructure. It's definitely a "clueless city folk trying to legislate things they don't understand" vibe.

That said, my moral/political stances haven't changed much, in fact I'm becoming more radical as time goes on. Who knows if it's because of living here or if it would have happened in the city anyway. Probably a mix.
This is backwards thinking. It's not a sports game, this is not about "winning" and "losing."

The goal is not to have voters choose their representatives, not the other way around. In a contested or closely divided district, the representatives must adapt to appeal to a majority, resulting in a more moderate position. In a gerrymandered district, the politician can do anything they want, because they know they effectively won't lose.

You're right that gerrymandering is not new, but it's gotten more aggressive, thanks to new technology and de facto sanctioning by SCOTUS.
Known? By the maasses? As based on the medias' narrative?

That's not what's playing out.
The fascinating thing about all this is the power of human manipulation. I grew up in a deeply religions area of the Midwest, the Bible Belt. Everyone was a hardcore Christian. However, as a youngster, I don't recall anyone talking about abortion. No mention of it. Back then churches would organize to help feed poor people and spread the word. That was it. Then, sometime around the mid-80s, everyone started talking about abortion. It seemed like that's all anyone talked about. And the tone changed, too. It went from, "Let me show you the way" to "You're going to rot in hell!"
Modern hospitals can save babies born as early as 22 weeks. If a full-term birth would kill the mother, then a date between 22 weeks and full term should be chosen that maximizes the chance that both mother and child survive.
Ho hum. Must be a Friday.
> such a law would be superfluous

Do you really think no superfluous law is ever passed...? The books are full of them.

> such a law would’ve be repealed the moment republicans regain control of the congress

Maybe, or maybe it would have increased Democratic majorities and forced Republicans to face a politically dangerous repeal or even a major policy switch.

Politicians are ready to go with the flow... see for example gay marriage in the UK, which was cautiously introduced by Labour as a separate formulation and then brought into full existence, with great fanfare, by a Conservative Party that had been staunchly against it for decades prior.
Nope, the substance of the argument is "You aren't doing this to protect life, you are doing this to punish women for having sex".

Because, if protecting life was truly the goal you are after, then you'd do a whole lot more to actually, you know, protect life, long after the child is born.
That's not remotely true. There were several million people involved in active efforts to undermine and end slavery through direct action, including through actions like the Underground Railroad, rebellions like Stono, and of course it ultimately did lead directly to civil war.
Ding ding ding!

It’s profitable on multiple levels to allow this, so corporations ensure the political class doesn’t enact legislation for consumers.
> Only a quarter of evangelicals in the United States believe abortion should be illegal in all cases, according to a new poll showing that a majority of self-identified Christians in the U.S. identify as “pro-choice” and less than half of evangelicals identify as “pro-life.”

It's not a "religious issue" when the members of the religion are split along party lines just like everyone else.
It's getting the states to ratify the amendment that's difficult. General population poll numbers don't equate to state ratification support.
If that’s what it takes, so be it (regarding holding office, at least - voting is not something I would restrict in that way). This government is not supposed to let religion dictate policy. If a person can’t demonstrate that they can consistently legislate or rule on law without letting their religion interfere, then we should not allow them to hold such positions. Human rights are what is important here, and we are seeing the result of unfettered access of organized religion to government - we roll back hard fought legal rulings. Look at the history of other nations that let religion rule the day - that power becomes useful then as a tool for oppression. Look at the modern world theocracies. They usually have abhorrent track records of human rights for women, homosexuals, people of the “wrong” ethnicity, and a whole range of other traditionally oppressed people.
When the social contract is so deteriorated and government so corrupt. Is that a bad thing?

I've seen it claimed that "well-regulated" in 1789 meant "well-equipped". Think of what a "regular" and "irregular" meant then (and kinda still means now). A "regular" was a soldier in an army. An "irregular" was a civilian joining the fight. I don't know if it is true that "well-regulated" meant "well-equipped", but it makes sense that it might have.
