  • Celsius is better because it's the standard used by almost the entire world. If you're talking with anyone but Americans or you're working in science then you're using Celsius.

    The rest is just arbitrary - you can get used to either system.

  • And it's only a few years ago that court action stopped them from doing this same thing with IE.

    ...follows the settlement of an anti trust case by the European Commission, following a complaint filed by Opera in 2007. That alleged that Microsoft was illegally bundling its own browser into Windows, giving IE an unfair advantage, because users have to actively download other browsers.

  • The word "organic" has a number of different meanings.

    organic adjective (OF FOOD PRODUCTION)

    1. not using artificial chemicals in the growing of plants and animals for food and other products:
    2. being or coming from living plants and animals

    ...(skipping a few others)

    organic adjective (IN CHEMISTRY)

    1. (of a chemical substance) containing carbon

    So the chemistry definition isn't the relevant one when applied to food. The "Carbon based molecules" definition isn't even the original one and it only applies in the context of science, not food.

  • He doesn't have to be found guilty of insurrection at trial for the clause to take effect - the bar is lower than that. All that's necessary is that he be accepted by the court as having been somewhat involved either directly or indirectly.

  • you think people who are biologically male have an advantage in mental only competition

    They do. There are two types of chess competition: open and women only. Women don't do well in the open competition which is why they added the women only competition.

    But it's not because men on average have an advantage. It's because men have a greater spread of chess ability so the very top men tend to do better than the top women.

  • Men and women don't have different minds.

    Chess stats don't agree with you on that. Men have a greater spread of chess ability than women. ie. the bottom end of men are significantly worse than the bottom end of women but also the top skilled men are better than the top women.
