This is silly. What if you chose to go to a smaller school so you paid for college out of pocket? Should you get paid for the opportunity cost of not going to the expensive liberal arts school?

Forgiving debt isn't about you, it's about unburdening an entire generation of working people so they aren't forever under the thumb of financial institutions. Undoing federal guarantees is also about rightsizing academia, which has bloated itself on these ever growing loan numbers.

There are 84,000 dams in the United States. More than one a day since we became a country. Most of them don't generate any meaningful electricity, but they do disrupt habitat for many native fish species.

I would like to see them all destroyed. We can find electricity elsewhere.

The article isn't original reporting at all, it is basically a press release for a report generated by an NGO. It's fine to question the source material here.

Ah the old Canadian pastime of sitting back and launch invectives at America while coasting on the economic and national security she provides by just being in proximity to her.

Were you in the Trophy Club offices then?

No OP but I personally prefer the simplicity of VS Code's diff and conflict resolution point-and-click tooling to using ediff/smerge. I also work in a project with some very deep directory structures and like the VS Code sidebar much more.

Does tweeting constitute critical reporting?

It's going to need to be more than 20%. There are no shortage of jobs where servers make enough to live because they make unreported cash tips.
