Um, Chernobyl is still extremely radioactive. You probably mean the exclusion zone which is really not that bad, there's even tourists going there. But it's still not recommended to live there due to cumulative exposure.

The fact that a former president has so much security points to the real problem - the position of President in the US has been king-lite for a while now and Trump didn't even start it.

Making everything in your country depend so much on one person is not healthy.

As someone said before it's not directly a consequence of a workplace, it's a part of interracting with a random selection of people from wildly different backgrounds.

Nod your head as if you weakly agree. Throw in a random opinion of your own, but I don't recommend the extreme ones. Questions also work especially when they are seemingly neutral and cause doubt in the original speaker.

For example if a Christian nationalist starts hating on Mexicans don't fall into the trap of repeating typical responses about respect for immigrants. Ask him how he reconciles that with the fact that Mexicans are predominantly Christians. Or something unexpected like that.

Anyone else with a variable place on the scale? I'm 3 normally but can go up to 1 on a limited scope in short bursts with effort.
It's like my brain has a limited rendering throughput so it's either a low quality version of the entire object, or a small high quality zoomed in section

Hm, water elementals do offer a lot of .... possibilities. Lubrication might be a problem though because of all the water

While the article talks about the legal proceedings it doesn't mention why anyone supports or opposes this tunnel. Like there isn't even one sentence about justifications. Shame on you BBC

Well if there's a choice - social club. What's even the point of having a job if you work all day just to survive and then try to squeeze socializing in the little time that remains until you need to sleep

Net positive to the world by a lot.

His fight for software freedom was essential for shaping technology in the last couple of decades. Basically any software today is based on open source directly or indirectly.

Don't listen to him about child psychology though

His plan was utterly dumb. You have a godlike power and what do you do?

All of them. Beliefs are what makes a person good/bad. Any bad actions come from those bad beliefs, but belief must exist first.

Let me give a very simplistic example. Most of us agree that murder is bad. In order for someone to commit murder they must first believe there are some cases where killing another person is justified or even desirable specifically for them. And not commonly agreed on ones like self-defense.

We even encode this difference in laws. Killing with intention is called "murder", while if it's done unintentionally it's a lesser change of "manslaughter". Belief is what decides severity of the action.
