Yeah except that logic doesn't apply to the UK and France

Can't comment on NYC, but a huge chunk of cyclists in my area are genuinely reckless, Ebikes or not. I can understand that bikes are less dangerous than cars, but that doesn't mean bikes can't kill or injure anyone.

It started out as The Learning Channel, now it's just TLC.

Maybe we wouldn't need external libraries to do basic things if JavaScript had a standard library

It's always weird when we actually get good legislation passed because of this.

People still cheat in smaller classroom settings.

You're advocating for quantity over quality. You will easily find situations where students don't learn in small groups because the professor lecturing that group isn't a good professor.

It costs $8k without insurance or with a high-deductible plan. Marketed hospital prices are not the same as what patients pay. Yes, a lot will pay around the $8k, but a lot more will pay a few hundred dollars.

I'm not saying the US has affordable health care, but if you're going to criticize something, you have to keep the nuance.

One newspaper is enough to get a shallow understanding of something, but it's not enough to get a more nuanced understanding. Even then, not every newspaper covers every story, so you'll need multiple even for a shallow understanding about XYZ.

In fairness, I haven't found a good paid news aggregator that has those paid sources. I sincerely doubt that most people can pay $10/month each to read NYT, The Economist, Bloomberg, WSJ, their local big newspaper, Wired, and whatever else might be useful.

The company is based in Israel and makes a lot of their products there. That being said, they're owned by PepsiCo, an American company.
