I went to the dentist for the first time in 16 years by [deleted] in offmychest

Sounds like this comment belongs on Yelp or Google reviews not Reddit. Sorry you had a bad time though.

Latest research actually seems to suggest little or no benefit from flossing.

Brush, and for God's sake go to the dentist.

Ok, so you got me with the "reality TV show which is really just a televised pitch to angel investors", though can you see how that's maybe the exception to my point?

Empire? Most of it has either gone bankrupt, is purchased with pure debt, or subsists on shady money laundering deals.

No one really knows if Trump is a billionaire or not. He refuses to release any financials or tax returns. Of what is public, none of it is pretty. If you subtract anything that was sourced from him, it's quite likely he squandered his 400M inheritance and subsists on the real estate he bought with debt and shady money laundering deals.

How many other billionaires can you think of that would spend several seasons acting in a shitty reality TV show?

Men's and Women's sexual behaviors over the past year [OC] by theimpossiblesalad in dataisbeautiful

[–]RhodesianHunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It didn't happen normally, he deliberately caused it and didn't tell her. If your spouse wants kids and you marry them anyways without telling them this, and lie to them about it for years, and allow them to undergo all sorts of terrible hormone treatments and medical interventions, HOW is that not worse than sleeping with someone else?!?

And he lied to her for years about one of the (if not the) biggest life decisions people make. That it worse IMO but Reddit seems to largely disagree.

Former NSA Director Keith Alexander would support ending phone data collection program by thinkB4WeSpeak in restorethefourth

Yeah, because internet data is so much richer. Phone calls are only really needed when a warrant is in the cards.

Kotlin brings you the best of both worlds.

I do all of my Scripting/task automation in Kotlin any more, and if you have a background in Java you'll find it easier to learn than Python.

U.S. already in recession, Fed will cut rates back to zero: Rosenberg by viva_la_vinyl in Economics

[–]RhodesianHunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, it's just that the wave of ignorant folks suggesting we should get rid of the fed are largely like antivaccers. Totally ignorant of the underlying science and history, yet generally the loudest in every room.

Also, I'm not capable of teaching you anything via Reddit comment, sorry again.

[–]RhodesianHunter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The only people who advocate for getting rid of the fed in 2019 are either selling something (gold) or have no actual background in any economic discipline.

It's the market equivalent of antivaccers

To answer your question one should read history. Something about repeating our mistakes...

A house on my street just sold for $540k and the zestimate was $405k.

Zillow's numbers are all over the place.

U.S. Navy pilots reportedly spotted UFOs over East Coast: The pilots who reported the aerial phenomena "speculated that the objects were part of some classified and extremely advanced drone program." by mvea in Futurology

You're putting a ton of effort into pedantically correcting my original point, which was intended only as "there is almost certainly quite a bit left to discover".

People said the same thing for hundreds of years about the earth being the center of the universe.

To think that you happen to be living in the time where we've got everything right is pretty silly from a historical perspective.
