To simplify - c is the maximum speed at which a "cause" can be transferred.
If I send a radio signal to turn on a light, and the light will only turn on in response to that signal, the signal cannot travel faster than c otherwise it would not have been able to turn on the light.
I used to think it was because I'm too ugly to be attractive to the women I find attractive.
Then I discovered I don't really even try with women I find physically attractive because it's relatively small on my attraction plate. If I find a woman who has intellect and the ability to talk on that trait, and a desire to learn with a bit of that physical goodness, hot damn will I put the effort in.
Worst case scenario I get rejected. Back to square one. Next one isn't even that bad: I end up with a good friend, which is one more link to hopefully find someone who foots the bill.
That being said having a lengthy dry spell probably isn't healthy, but I've managed it so far.
Edit: why the hell did I say this in this community?
I need to hold off on commenting before I'm fully awake
If chain of command is always followed, then the orders will be neutered before they can be carried out.
While any superior officer can circumvent subordinates, as far as I understand it, this would be highly unusual, insulting, and self-disparaging. Technically Miller himself could give the orders to specific troops to carry out, but as soon as his orders are issued, the troops commanding officer can belay those and issue their own.
There is a reason tyrants don't like chain of command.
Edit: Stephen Miller is just Policy Chief of Staff. Basically a talking head at this point. No actual ability to give orders
Plus if the order that has made its way down to enlisted in such a way that the enlisted has to determine if it's illegal or not, then theres a bigger problem.
If officers can give the order to hold any return fire, then they can also give the order to do something that is not illegal.
That's also why it's a spectrum. Some of us have compensation for that automatic intuition.
Grace had a different prediction of her action in the first one compared to the second one.
Though admittedly my first gut instinct is "grace killed her, intentional or not." But because of that "mystery or" my mind says "my understanding is incomplete, seek more information."
Ok. So. Is there something wrong with me that ever since I learned about the Palestinian genocide in the late 2000's my mind went immediately to "uh, what the fuck, why are we supporting this?"
I've always thought "well of course Palestinians are going to support Hamas. Hamas is actually doing something.
Is it empathy? Or is it autism that makes me more resistant to propaganda? Or is it simply that I have an above average means to change my mind in light of new information and most humans lack it?
Oh thank God. I thought it was my IBS acting up again. I've been on it for over a year and lost the weight really well, but the constipation was somewhat horrific.
Does anyone have a list of all ICE detention facilities?
Not for any particular reason. Definitely not to see if anything can be done to free the victims.
Definitely not so that international efforts could help coordinate the rescue of the victims.
