  • The two party system is an inevitable consequence of the FPTP election system. Replace that, and you can have multiple parties. Otherwise, you might get a short period of chaos with multiple parties which then settles down to the two winners.

  • It wouldn't have worked. You'd never have gotten every single last case and then the exponential growth would have started again. Or, if that had somehow magically worked, the virus would have come back from outside.

    There were no simple solutions.

  • No. That's an increase of 129% to 229% of the original price.

    You are right that you always use the original price as the base, but if it were still $7 that would be a 0% increase, not 100% as by your math.

  • SpaceX has one viable product

    Two. I can't even figure out whether you're ignoring Starlink or their space launch business. But yeah, the Elonville on Mars obsession makes about as much sense as the Cybertruck.

  • Probability is useful because it can make predictions that can be tested against reality.

    Yes. But you'd have to run the test repeatedly and see if the outcome, i.e. Clinton winning, happens as often as the model predicts.

    But we only get to run an election once. And there is no guarantee that the most likely outcome will happen on the first try.

  • That's not exactly what happened. Starlink was already disabled in Crimea when the attack was launched and Musk refused to enable it specifically for the attack. Then the initial reports got a bit tangled up.

    But yes, none of this should be up to Musk.
