36 Stories About Creepily Intelligent People

4 year olds do have access to youtube. My cousin's granddaughter spends far too much time there, but I keep my mouth shut because she's not my daughter or granddaughter. I'm not stupid. I'm not saying this 4 year old found the video needed. I'm saying they do use youtube.

I have no idea what this list is supposed to be. Disabled access in the US is excellent, for example, and I'd argue that the US is at least as good as anywhere in the world for food quality and variety.

Mattachine Society was a gay rights organisation, founded in 1950, For reference, that is 19 years before the Stonewall riots. But there were gay organisations in the US long before this too, the first one was founded in 1924.

Pretty sure that last part is from a movie... But for the rest, a lot of advanced coding techniques and pure mathmatics are very similar, and you will see math students in advanced cs courses.

In fact with the batteries they had back then this was nowhere near as harmful as it sounds today - they were not sealed, generally enclosed in a cardboard case, so would not explode, and were constructed mostly from zinc and carbon, relatively harmless. Some harmful chemicals were used in small amounts though, but unless you directly inhaled the fumes the effect on atmospheric pollution was minimal. Not to be recommended, of course, but not quite as bad as it sounds.

The second comment is bóllocks. You'd probably go to a private dentist or someone like a dermatologist, but the serious stuff you go the public way, simply because there are few private hospitals that could perform advanced surgery and then it is very costly. You don't pay 40% for healthcare, you pay 7.5%. And if you are unemployed, all you need to do is to register with the unemployment office and you get healthcare insurance paid for by the state (meaning: the working people).
