In my opinion, Kant was overestimating the power of his own and Hume’s philosophical arguments—metaphysics is what it’s; it can never be destroyed or saved by philosophy.

A Political Junkie, Viable Opposition - 14 hours ago
Lost in the overload of coronavirus news was a significant medical discovery that was announced on the nature Communications website in July 2020. The article entitled "Non-invasive early detection of cancer four years before conventional diagnosis using a blood test" by Xingdong Chen et al would appear to be a very significant development for all of us, particularly those, who like me, are predisposed to certain types of cancer. Those of us that have had family members and friends die from late stage cancers that were detected at a stage where effective treatments were not avai...
As Californians face power outages Democrat Governor Newsom says they'll all have to drive electric cars
trinko, Conversations about the obvious - 14 hours ago
To be fair Newsom isn't banning the sale of non-electric cars until 2035 but since the state of California's electrical system will be far worse then than it is now, due to his policies, his edict will really hurt Californians. Yes it's true that after 2035 we'll be able to keep our gasoline and diesel cars and we'll even be able to sell them but no new cars will allowed to use fossil fuels. Currently due to Newsom's failed energy policies on hot days Californians face black outs because renewable energy sources often don't produce much power; when the sun is blocked by smoke fro...
Public school uses BLM training on 7 year olds telling them that cops shoot Blacks with impunity
trinko, Conversations about the obvious - 14 hours ago
One Seattle area public school is having 7 year olds see video where they're taught that cops shoot Black people regularly and that they get away with it. That's clearly absurd given that the cops involved with George Floyd's death, which may have been due to a drug overdose, were in jail within 2 days. The cop who Eric Holder said acted in self defense when he shot Michael Brown lost his job and had to move away. Multiple studies have shown that innocent Blacks are no more likely to be killed by cops than innocent white people are. In another schools online resources is a boo...
The New York Times says that people of Middle Eastern descent are white if they're Christian non-white if they're Muslim
trinko, Conversations about the obvious - 14 hours ago
As part of its never ending crusade to sow division and hatred between Americans the NYT published a list of the 922 most powerful people in America and was upset that only 20% were minorities. In that list non-whites are marked with yellow; the same color the Nazi's used to identify Jews. Rep. Tlaib parents and Rep. Amash father grew up 20 miles apart and Amash's mother came from Syria. Yet Tlaib, a Muslim, is listed as non-white but Amash, a Christian, is listed as white. It turns out that there are several more examples of people whose parents are from the Middle East, or even...

The U.S. Army Wants to Link F-35 Stealth Fighters to Ground Forces

Imagine an F-35 stealth fighter jet using its electro-optical targeting system to find enemy ground targets, including processing otherwise separated sensor data. The F-35 could then establish target specifics and use radio datalinks to send that targeting information to nearby Apache helicopters and High Mobility Artillery Rocket System rockets.

At the same time, science has given us the power to destroy civilization through thermonuclear war, as well as the power to make our planet uninhabitable through pollution and overpopulation.
