The solution to chess is almost certainly a draw, since this is what all top engine chess converges to. Otherwise you are completely correct: chess is unsolved and will likely never be solved.

The establishment pushing against him is a good thing. Think about what happened the first time Trump announced his candidacy. Voters love to vote for candidates that the establishment hates.

We are heading into a period with severe labor shortages as the elderly retire. Who will take care of the elderly? Who will handle be their doctors/nurses? This is not a problem that can be solved with money unfortunately. You need to either relax migration rules so foreigners take these jobs (very unpopular atm) or increase the retirement age.

I don’t want to talk ethics, but as a rule of thumb, winning a war is easier if you take out strategic targets than if you target civilians. Targeting civilians is what you do if your weapons aren’t precise enough to target tanks/planes etc.

Again, mtf or any transgender issue can be solved with birth certificates. It doesn’t require genetic testing. Genetic testing is targeted at humans that according to all our traditional laws and practices are treated as female, yet may potentially be banned from female sports.

What are you talking about? This is not about transgender at all. For those you could require a birth certificate. This is targeting women that are born as girls but, due to genetic anomalies, do not appear as such on genetic tests. Many (most?) would never discover the genetic anomaly during their lifetime.

If this is regular height roof the cat can simply jump down and land on its feet, or it can use the drainage pipe for support. In my experience cats always check very carefully whether they can come down prior to climbing up. Only exception might be kittens.

This answer makes no sense. Sound comes in waves with crests and throughs. In a controlled setting you can harmonize which effectively matches crests to crests and throughs to throughs. This happens in music with choirs, orchestra etc. In that case indeed sounds adds up.

However, with many random sources at many random frequencies you just get chaotic patterns where sound sometimes cancels out and sometimes adds up. No way that the overall result of this is that it adds up in dB. My first approximation would be that if one source emits 1dB and another also emits 1dB, these roughly add up to 1dB.

A very easy test of this is whether you now hear a very loud buzzing in your ear because at this very moment many people talk at the same time. I guess you know the answer.

Isn’t there a warrant for their arrest in Florida? I believe they were there for two nights and on one of these nights he raped someone. I think he went back to Romania to escape US jail.

This, but also there is massive competition for getting Trumps favor among his minions. A public statement like this pleases Trump, and so Vance gets to be a bit closer to daddy. Trump loves this type of competition among his underlings, and so all of them attempt to outcompete each other in stupidity.

Dems hold the key because there will be some GOP holdouts in both the house and senate. It is imperative to vote against the proposal because 1. It is good politics, and 2. It puts some breaks on executive overreach.

However, prepare to find those same centrist Dems who did not want to extend the debt ceiling under Biden vote in favor of this proposal to look BiparTiSan.

It’s a Facebook link… maybe at least give a blurb on why I should click it.

Isn’t anything in the upper range of what you are able to hear annoying? I.e. when you age 12.5 kHz will be annoying as fuck.

I think it depends a bit on where the cat is. If my cat is in somebody’s yard and the owner does not like it, it’s perfectly fine to spray my cat with water. In fact I do the same to my neighbours cat to prevent cat fights. If my cat is on neutral territory, I would be more pissed.

Just to be clear, such a change to the birth certificate should NEVER happen if the person involved does not agree with it. It would 100 percent violate the Hippocratic Oath, as it can be very harmful.

Fair. I think my point was related to what makes sense in any reasonable social setting, not what is the exact biological definition which appears to be more of a scientific question.

Just to be clear on this, in my opinion anyone born with a vagina who wants to identify as a woman, should be treated as such. That’s if you have grown up thinking you were a woman, such an identity cannot be taken away.

There are only two reasonable definitions. One is: born with genitalia that look female (i.e. female on birth certificate). The other is “identifies as”. Both of these could be important in different contexts.

Your definition has the downside that the government would have to check your medical records to determine gender. That is an insane breach of the medical records.

Doesn’t seem to be a difficult choice. The US is preying on its closest allies, threatening to annex Canada, and Greenland. China is not.

I would hope she runs for president not senate.

Tariff the advertisers. Also, strictly enforce GDPR.
