That's why I wrote official. If the US as a country and as an institution change the name of a place, it is neither the problem nor the role of google to decide if it is good or not. I would not be happy if my president decided to rename the united kingdom to the îles normandes (normandy isles), but I do think that once official google should change the name

It's an american company, whatever they say come with an asterisk saying whatever they say it depends on what the powers in the USA decide (and it's the same for other countries with their own companies).

Anyway I don't think google should be the one choosing the names they call water bodies. They just need to use the official names for the IPs countries, and show lake america, gulf of america, ocean america, asian america, european america and african america if Trump makes it official, but only for the US IPs.

That's how research works. You don't know the results in advance and 99% have no direct and immediate usefulness for the general public

He was president in 2014 and these kind of projects are planned and funded well before.

It's surprising how people criticizing the critics are people who lack basic understanding of research.

Do you think researchers that experiment on animals do it for the pleasure of managing all the bureaucracy that comes with it, the potential pain of the animals and having to wait months or years for a result ?

Small minded ? If islam is not fiction then all other religions and beliefs are fiction. How is it less small minded ?

It can be a surprise to you but not everything turns around your religion.

9 or 20 lines of nixos vs 7 steps on another OS vs some copy/paste with docker. It's not very convincing
