Turns out, productivity soars when you have a well rested, well compensated, well treated, healthy, and housed people who don't have constant stessors of literally every aspect of their lives nearly crumbling beneath them...

Let's say left door lies and right door tells the truth. Right door leads out.

Left door would lie and say "right door would tell you I am the door that leads out"

Right door would tell the truth, and say "left door would say LEFT door leads to freedom". Since left door does not lead to freedom, left door would lie and say that left door is the correct one.

No matter which door you ask, they will have the same answer.

So you would choose the opposite door of whichever one they say.

Cool.

The more they focus on trying to kill me, the less resources they have to kill some Palestinian.

It's getting harder and harder to frame the IDF as the victims.

Similarly, it's pretty hard to claim you're the victim when you knocked your neighbor unconscious, dragged them into the basement, and beat them with a baseball bat for the next 24 hours.

The only thing that fully explains the deletion of the photos is opsec, though

"... without any assumptions, regardless of how plausible, bordering on certainty, that the assumption is" I suppose.

know everything about us and would track us down if any hidden or un-deleted photo was ever published.

"if you go back to your country and post anything we will murder you"

Personally I'd just use encrypted backups or data recovery and post literally everything I could, possibly with a taunt calling out the coward who can only threaten people when backed up by billions in military funding and personnel.

Everyone makes fun of Tim, but BUT WAS RIGHT!

You're right, you clearly don't have anything of substance to say.

"stealing art for my/my favorite techbro's computer project should be legal and since it's not yet, I'll go around completely misrepresenting arguments in order to make them seem like they are the ones who are out-of-touch"

you begin manufacturing explosives in order to demolish all future trolley tracks, trying to ensure nobody is ever forced to choose again. Misunderstanding your purpose, you are arrested, and the people cheer that a terrorist has been brought to justice. Your pleas fall on deaf ears and people insist the trolleys are good, the trolleys are necessary.

True, it's not a great plan. But it's not your fault. You can never move on from... the trolley problem.

NYS rangers

How did I miss that part? That's on me.

Yeah state parks, rangers, and anything that positively manages government land has always gotten the short end of the stick. The state police aren't as militarily kitted out as some local PDs, at least in my experience.

A state park near where I grew up was basically begging for volunteers because they didn't have the budget to take care of the park more than 3ft from the parking lot. (mild exaggeration, but you get the idea)

This whole time I've been thinking its some local city cops with too much time and not enough training...

That's the point.

Set the bar low, but just high enough that tons of people still trip over it.

Sit back and enjoy the comment wars.

The people who are confident but wrong are too proud to admit they were wrong even if they realize it, and comment angrily.

The people who are right and know why, comment for corrections and some to show off how S-M-R-T they are.

The people who are wrong but willing to accept that just have their realization and probably don't think about it again. So do the people who don't know and/or care.

But those first two groups will keep the post going in both shares and comments, because "look at all these wrong people"

It's all designed to boost engagement.
