The problem is that the rate of space expansion at great distances (e.g., >4200 megaparsecs) exceeds the speed of light. So at a certain distance, space is pulling things apart too fast for the light or gravity to make it back, influence matter, bring them together, etc.

.... And then Russell Crowe took a big shit on it....

Sorry for your experience! But on a three mile bike commute, I had near death experiences every day from cars. Once, I was hit by a car making a sudden illegal turn to get to a asking space, and it shattered my septum, gave me neck and back problems for years. And of course the driver was under-insured, and didn’t…

Fascinating! Thank you for sharing! And so glad you made it through and recovered. Aortic dissections are terrifying, obviously.

The joke’s on you! Lactaid, with the lactose broken down into simpler sugars, is sweeter and tastier then regular cow's milk!

At one point Lincoln was a proponent of expatriation of slaves, but he had abandoned that position.

Wowza, pixels really seem to piss you off.

So... The vote was not for permanent daylight saving time. The vote was to ALLOW the legislature to switch the state to permanent daylight saving time IF federal law changes.

Unless your idea of “discussing workplace conditions” is to declare that all of your female and minority colleagues are inferior workers to white males.

“To be absolutely clear, Slack is not the place to discuss potential unionization, sexual harassment response concerns, or anything else you don’t want your boss reading over later. That was true before, and it’s even more true now.”

You’re the one who’s whining.

Sorry, I’m being mean. I’m sure you’re a fine person.

I’m not sure how many times you want me to point out what you wrote. You’re quoting me quoting you.

You asked why I said your comment was a word salad. So I pointed it out. Not sure where you think I’m “equating being white with being late at work.”

It’s not that I don’t understand what you’re saying. It’s that you’ve taken some words from employment law and policy and mushed them together, but that doesn’t mean the ideas follow. I recommend reading up a bit more on protected characteristics, retaliation, and employment discrimination jurisprudence.

As a lawyer who works in the area of workplace discrimination, I can assure you that the words you put together don’t make any sense.

If you’re an at-will employee, you can be fired for anything (or nothing!) except protected activity or because of a protected characteristic.

Google doesn’t claim to not be evil. “Don’t be evil” used to be their motto but it isn’t anymore.

Ok...So that’s just you. I’m not sure irritating you is the same thing as Facebook messing up.

Actually, I’m really lucky when it comes to migraines—i CAN keep working. But yes, they are migraines. (And yes, people have no idea what they’re talking about when they use the word migraine like headache.) I get two types of visual auras (1. the shimmering crescent things; 2. Half or more of my vision will just go…
