Hope you don't find out who #11 is. (I DDG'd it and wish I hadn't.)

Generally he referred to himself as the son of man, but there were instances of other references: "before Abraham was, I am" might not make a lot of sense to us but the Jews understood this to be a direct claim to divinity, and calling God his Father riled them up too because in their understanding that made him equal with God.

Several thousand over different days and locations, not "one or two". If it were one or two then this thing would never have taken off. People back then weren't as dumb as we like to believe.

I agree. BUT, if you allow "teraflop" as a noun, then adding an s makes it plural, and it can still be accurate to say 60 teraflops a second to mean simply (the original definition of) 60 teraflops.

They're comforted by the knowledge that at least they're not the guy who installs indicators on BMWs.

I tried pocket a couple of times but couldn't get past the "we think you're on a phone so you're only getting three items on the screen at once". Well I'm not on a phone, I'm on a desktop with a 32" monitor and three T-Rex sized items on my screen is just terrible design.

I'm not making a point, I'm responding to your request: "treat trans women as women. Because that’s what they are. Name a situation where you think this would be problematic" with the Isla Bryson case.

Initially she was treated as a woman and chucked in a female-only prison. According to you, this is 100% correct.

I agree with your point about prisons in general not being a brilliant solution to crime, being known as universities for criminals. But that - and gendered prisons - are what we've got, and we aren't going to rebuild the entire criminal justice system around the tiny number of trans criminals have a problem with this.

I've got one for you, and it's not even hypothetical. Man rapes two women, gets caught, but transitions before being sentenced.

Having ADHD isn't a prerequisite to that; I don't, and also know the difference.

If "basic human needs" includes a full working set of fingers, all ten, because then I get them back.

Not in technology, it's a rapidly evolving field. Answers that might have been absolutely perfect five years ago can now be irrelevant archaic trivia.
