I had no clue either, till trump started attacking him since he's scared. Its funny how bernie supporters are doing trumps work for him.
His stutter is and will be a massive issue for him in going against Trump.
It was fine

He voted for NAFTA, supported TPP, voted for the Iraq war, bailed out the banks, senator from MBMA, family corruption.... what do you mean he doesn't have the same baggage? It is almost worse, except he's a man.
Turns out "except he's a man" is worth several million votes

If you lose your job, look on the bright side. The new Biden administration will tell you "you need to learn how to code".

The odds for Biden winning the election are ridiculously low compared to the fact that he has literally won the election. I don't have the capital to take any such risks, but I think that the expected profit is pretty high if you're betting on Biden. Spreading the risk by betting on some individual states such as Nevada, Arizone, PA etc. could make this a serious investment opportunity. Assuming this site is still correct and these bets are still open - I haven't really looked into this in great detail.

Yeah, I'm pretty skeptical of things like abiogenesis and common descent but I can't see why the Earth's age would be an issue. Both young-earth and old-earth beliefs seem reasonable enough and broadly compatible with the Biblical account of creation. I wouldn't think less of someone for holding to either of these views or for having no opinion on the subject.
