Well, that's a big lie. I grew up on a reservation, an Indian Service Area, and still work on a reservation. Native American, Indian, American Indian are all used.

indigenous is the not a term originating with any tribe.

[edit: at this point I just assume that folks on HN don't have any concept of the demographics of reservations and how many children are being born. If you mention lack of Hispanic population but don't mention the Native American population then you are skewing the point.]

If you can prevent harm to others, then not doing so is just being an a$$. The trolley problem is just counting souls and really doesn't happen much in real life. The true problem is thinking the only choices are us/them versus everyone. I'm not a doctor so I have no idea how their ethics applies to their professional decisions.

We killed 70% of the control group. Doomed by a random number generator.

Intellectually, I can understand the need for control groups, but I still think it's immoral. When you stare at a spreadsheet and see 70% of the control group is dead because some random number generator sorted them there like hell's own sorting hat, and the 98% of the people getting the drug are alive, you have no business talking about statistics. That graph will haunt me til my dying day.

Frankly, by some definitions, I'm a prepper which is rather surprising. I think if you live rural you tend to have a lot more supplies on hand. I used to keep 3 full days, but I now have a 7 day supply, and friends feel fairly justified in have a year's worth of goods. Heck, some of the base prepper playbook are rural hobbies (micro-farming) or just basic winter prep (generator).

Now, solar and wind have gotten a lot more convenient with people doing battery walls. I get the feeling that those folks just got tired of listening to the power company say wait.

If Microsoft wasn't so intent on spying and advertising to me, I might consider them. I get the feeling I will switch to a BSD eventually.

Which has lead to suggestions to breed this into livestock. Which will certainly change the landscape in US.

As I said before: Somehow driving through South Dakota looking out over a vast field of seaweed eating, zebra striped cows was not the future I anticipated as a youth.
