Of course opposition is bipartisan. I still think the GOP is worse on this, what with climate change denial. It would be nice to get some money to spend on projects, but I'd rather a carbon tax at all than one with nice goodies.

Wow. I can't imagine what it would be like to figure all this out, or to be the guy who did the engine and see all your edge cases get exploited.

Sometimes the stuff you've got to put together does look like it's going to need to violate the laws of physics for it to ever actually come together. I've been putting stuff... #funny #instructional

Some interesting counts, but a lot of their rules are pretty arbitrary, especially when it comes to counting time.

Very interesting. I think his take on Ren (and the fans who channel him in their rejection of Rey) is great.

Some really great memories from Pegg here. In a way I wish I had the right timing, but I guess that's what Star Trek is for!

Really interesting details, especially on how they used practical references to create fully digital scenes.

I think this covers well why I liked the movie so much, though I had a less emotional response.

The Attack on Science at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge

Snail mail was one of the more confusing and enchanting aspects of life in my new country.

It us.

Not a fair representation, but hews close to my understanding that a lot of these pastors are scammers taking money from people who need it most.

Just listen to this on loop until you go mad.

I need to speak up more, though I don't encounter it often.

Great points about entertainment value, regressive taxes, and education budgets.

Reëvaluate. Début. And yet, New Yorker, you used "fanboy" as the second word... And in general a defense of George and criticism of The Force Awakens I disagree with.

Some good points about the money behind sequelitis, but I disagree with him on Star Wars.

I want a John Williams theme.

I was vaguely aware that this was a thing. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that they harass victims' families.

I like this take. Although I do wonder if Chewie was around m, or just came back when Han needed him.

Great mildly spoilery piece on how important the strong portrayal of Rey was to a woman who is a big fan of Star Wars.

Great points, and yes, I didn't notice pet of the concerns he's debunking.

Really great advice. I've been following the subject/body suggestion more, especially as we've migrated to Gitlab for a lot of things.

I find the footer amusing. "Barack Obama is the president of the United States". I don't have a lot of faith that much will happen, but I'm glad he's working on it.

Huh. I definitely got the same "southern problem" history lesson.

Neat trick. Obviously most interesting for the high distribution words.

Interesting that Cliven Bundy is calling for restraint and local only action.

This is a solid viewing guide, though I disagree with his diss of Move Along Home. His examples of "pure sci-if" bottle episodes are among my favorites. Of course I think watching the whole thing is worth it :o).

Good explanation of sidereal time.
