I wish I believed giving the homeless jobs would fix the problem but I watched my dad who owns a business try and help several local homeless or down on their luck types and more often than not they just take advantage of people then go right back to drugs or worse they have mental health issues and probably will never be able to function in society.

jswizzy··on Will technology save us from climate change?
I'm still waiting on the crisis to materialize. Florida was suppose to be under water 10 years ago and 50 years ago we were suppose to be in a second Ice Age. Oh and the Ozone was suppose to be gone by now.

Yep and with Kotlin and Swift having 90% of the same paradigms it's easy to switch between the two without having to think in contrasting paradigms.
jswizzy··on Amazon competitor got our belt listing taken down by saying it contains drugs
I wish people would just stop using Amazon. Online stores are everywhere now and Amazon is worse than Walmart now when compared to just shopping directly from the product website or smaller online boutiques. Even the shipping times are nothing special anymore.

jswizzy··on Nobel Prize speech from the inventor of PCR, Kary Mullis (1993)
You are putting the cart before the horse here. People who think outside the box and challenge society and norms are the ones who push the limits of our current knowledge. Conformist and those who seek approval from others will not risk their credibility or reputation on untested ideas.

I don't know what you mean by voters. Since the gay marriage issue was decided by the courts instead of legislatures.
