Great idea. They could just shadow ban everyone and then have /r/SubSimulatorGPT2 bots fill in the comments.

It looks like non-trivial subdomains will still appear and those seem to me to be the most problematic.

There was enough written about this specific issue to suggest it might be political opportunism. Of course it's also not fair to not let people actually change their mind.

Maybe flip-flopping is too loaded of a word and I shouldn't have used it.

EFF, who I do follow, has not criticized the withdraw.

I don't know enough about Bernie or Clinton to know where they stand on the issue. Clinton's de-endorsement was probably not genuine so I'd bet she has criticisms of the withdraw.

My main point is that an issue that was popular on the left (enough for Clinton to flip-flop on) seems to now be mostly the voices of the left criticizing the withdraw.

There might be some bias there because people who did support withdraw might be less incentivized to vocalize support for policy that landed in their favor.

We definitely saw that with TPP. It was something the EFF, Bernie, and Clinton (tepidly) were against. The withdraw is used to bludgeon the administration for not creating a counter trade force to China.

Do you have a recommendation for price alerts? Both E-Trade and Robinhood don't notify me immediately when a price target or percentage change is hit. A 90 day limit order does execute quickly enough but it isn't exactly what I'm looking for because there might be new information that would have made me not want to buy.

I reached a point where I realized I needed help to quit drinking. I looked into AA and a coworker whom I knew had gone through the program gave me a little red book. It felt very dogmatic and turned me off to the program. I never attended a meeting.

Instead I read a different book that could be summarized as "There are lots of good reasons to stop drinking and lets go over them." I also used r/stopdrinking as a support group for daily check-ins.

I can't say whether Alcoholics Anonymous would have helped me had I gone to the meetings but the literature was really unattractive. My understanding of SMART is they don't let you refer to yourself as an "alcoholic" or "addict". I feel that framing was much better for me than what I read in the Alcoholics Anonymous pamphlet.

The Wikipedia article on "Seattle Freeze" suggests there might be something to Washington's introversion.

> While some residents dispute the existence of the Seattle Freeze, a 2008 peer-reviewed study published in Perspectives on Psychological Science found that among all 50 states, Washington residents ranked 48th in the personality trait extraversion. In 2014 a similar report by the Seattle CityClub ranked the population 48th out of 50 similarly-sized cities in activities such as "talking with neighbors frequently".

Op never said anything about 'lols'. I'm cautious but this is one area where I think the administration might be doing something correctly (but I don't know).

We lost a lot of manufacturing and it should have been OK because we could just move up the value chain to tech. Between the great firewall, restrictive cloud rules, partnership requirements, and IP transfers that hasn't worked out.

I don't know if the policies are best but I agree with the statement that as far as all the administrations policy proposals, this is one example of where I'm willing to take a wait-and-see approach.
