I was looking at the eight options given, each concerning one of these issues: famine, health, education, human rights, access to clean water, and conservation of nature. Speaking for myself, I view these matters as intimately connected, without exception existing--persisting--due to lack of respect and of equality (both of which I would again argue to come down to the same: lack of culture).I am convinced that such an outlook is more helpful: by delineating the issue it does so for the solution as well, it restricts to a bare minimum the chaos of trying to control many factors, and hopefully resists tracking symptom rather than cause. But it is about this that I wish to ask: why might one not agree? less

I'm running several, but only one will actually give me a map and how me where I've been and indicate where it thought I drove poorly. It doesn't give exact speeds, but it will gig me if it thinks I went over 80mph. The other day, it nailed me for it twice- once at the start of a curve on the freeway and a second time at the end of the curve; the points were roughly 2.5 miles apart. I thought it was BS because I was watching my speed... normal watching- not crazy staring at it. Anyway, I did the same drive again, but this time, the driver I was following had cruise control set and stayed at 69 the whole time, so I decided to stay behind him on purpose, all while closely monitoring my speed. I did not go over 70. I am certain. However, the app clocked me at 80+ again on the exact same curve. This won't impact me because I'm not going to buy car insurance from that company. However, I believe their app is faulty and will impac... less
