@arstechnica Yeah, but is that ever going to be as cool as riding a bicycle?

@georgetakei The time for reparations was in the immediate aftermath of the Civil War. We are too far removed and any talk of reparations should also include the reparations from the african tribes that enslaved their fellow africans and offered them for sale. And for those that don't know, slavery is still a problem in sub-Saharan africca.

@arstechnica Yep, would definitely like to see comparison between AI weather forecasts and those based on traditional mathematical models.

Facing more than half a billion dollars in legal judgments and fees, Trump just sold his $10 million jet to one of his megadonors.

Is the fire sale beginning?

@rbreich What's sad is that you revel in his destruction. What the Left has done is nothing short of persecution.

A recent report found that Americans have become less likely to go out for a workday lunch, and more likely to eat a brought-from-home lunch at their desks.

Do you go out for a lunch break? And if not, why not?

@rbreich Everything costs more so bringing a lunchbox makes sense.
