No. That's a bizarre concept concocted by angry people on the Internet who have overdosed on Tumblr, attempted to derive a first-principles explanation for why people appear to believe strongly in the importance of otherkin rights, and arrived along the way at the notion that "privilege" means white people have done something intrinsically wrong just by being white.

Privilege as used in the real world (leaving out, perhaps, postmodern literature) is a simple, common-sense observation. Having privilege isn't wrong or evil; it's unavoidable.

The problem isn't people having privilege. Rather, the problems are:

* Just-world-fallacy beliefs in nonexistent level playing fields, where people experience benefits clearly attributable to some privilege and then claim that people who don't receive those benefits don't deserve them, when really they just lack the privilege.

* Knowingly and deliberately protecting some privilege, overtly denying benefits and recognition to those without it so that you can remain a member of an elite.

The way I know this is noncontroversial and common sense is that nerds have no trouble recognizing the concept when discussions turn to venture capitalists, to hedge fund financiers and banksters, to congresspeople, to prosecutors, to jocks in high school, or to abusive monopolies.
In my experience the baby has nothing to do with it - I know at least 3 women who have married that guy+, and now have a happy marriage and a kid. 1 of them even describes himself as a house husband with a side gig. Money isn't everything - particularly if you have lots of it.

+ well hot, smart, and having lived interesting lives by 35. That describes all 3 of them.

So I get you haven't appreciated Mahler and Bruckner. I can understand your position if you haven't. /s
And in those cases it's much more about the "richest 1%" than "white men"
They really are meaningful. How about we make a deal? You read Intelligence: All That Matters and I'll read The Mismeasure of Man again.
I've started some treatment recently, and for some reason I immediately started dating and looking for mates again.

I quickly realized how difficult it is. You can't find women unless you have a job, while women have made outstanding progress in education and the workforce, and for some reason they have a hard time dating people who have a less comfortable situation than themselves. I don't want to ride the whole mensright bandwagon or to criticize feminism, but it can be a difficult source of unhappiness for some.

I dated this young mother of two who managed to be a teacher for kids, she got help from her middle class parents, I can really say that when you feel the class struggle seeping into your love life, it is a very weird feeling. Of course it's not the only reason, I'm not saying it, but it can the source of other problems.

One generation behind us, women still sort of relied on men, and now that the tables have turned, women might need to make a compromise.

Not to mention the whole tinder generation which is making things a little weirder.

EDIT:

This comment is full of personal opinion, so take it with a big grain of salt.
It's very far away from the Sun.
This is a real problem. For a while I was running my own company and making more than I could spend - so I bought a house in a nice older neighborhood - walking distance to the beach, restaurants, and a pier, and very pleasant. But I soon discovered that most of my neighbors were never there - perhaps 10% of the houses were owned by wealthy people who would visit once or twice a year. So most residents of my town can't afford to live there - while the wealthy can afford to buy those properties and leave them empty.

Something is very wrong with the US economy and needs to be fixed. I don't want things to be "fair" only for the rich - I want things to be "fair" for our entire society.
Which is really more politically incorrect to say, that women are basically looking for a man to provide for them, or that, more or less, pimps are survivors?

So, I'm turning this into an echo chamber by ...expanding the scope?

That's not how echo chambers work. Talk about cognitive dissonance.
Which branch of science or philosophy did you apply to reach your non-squishy conclusion?
this is hate speech: choose a subset of people (men not working in a certain age group) and tell them that they ought to live in fear of being called a "problem" unless they get back to work. this is UK-level stupid.

in reality, a group of "job creators" decided to arrogate to themselves a monopoly on "job creation". Therefore, job creation is in control of an unelected minority.

When the unelected job creators decide to screw around and play games instead of, say, studying job creation and actually TAKING RESPONSIBILITY for being GOOD HUMAN BEINGS, then we got problems.

Job creation is still a difficult, painful subject that is highly subjective. What is a job from one person's point of view may be a pointless waste of time from another's point of view. In general, we assume that job creation is not our problem, therefore leaving the unelected set of "job creators" to screw up and generally fail to be anything other than little babies who poop and pee and act like stupid idiots.

That is what this is, a stupid little kid running around going "MY FRIENDS ARE BIG BAD JOB CREATORS! WHY WON'T YOU TAKE THE JOBS WE HAVE! WAAA!! WAAA!!"

little babies. stupid little brats.
If you aren't willing to demonstrate your skills with a little coding assignment, I don't consider you a qualified candidate. I've used a coding test for years, always get exactly the good kind of people I want, it filters out the lazy and the liars, most programming candidates are liars and simply don't have the chops they claim.

This dismissal seems to implicitly accept Cartesian dualism, maybe? There's not much difference between a human engaging in mathematical reasoning and say, a computer enumerating proofs. Mathematical reasoning is a form of computation. Computation comprises physically realizable processes that are equivalent in a certain way. It is this equivalence between computational (and hence physical) processes which allows us to talk about mathematics as something "outside" of the human mind which itself is only one sort of computational physical process. As far as mathematics is concerned, the human mind isn't privileged. So if mathematics doesn't exist outside of people's minds, it certainly doesn't exist within it either. But then what are we talking about?

Computation is a finitary process, but its behavior is informed by infinity. Even if infinity doesn't "exist" in the sense that we could ever observe and comprehend it, we can see its shadow everywhere.

> The ability to notice some inherent patterns of natural phenomena, such as the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, does yield this ratio to be immortal, or any other inferred constant.

I have to disagree. The fact that there are patterns to notice is a deep mystery of the world and prefigures mathematical truth. Things are different in some ways but the same in other ways. Trivial, but fundamental. The fact that we can find mathematics everywhere relies on this fact.
exactly right. 2 times is my ceiling as well. I actually have a guy who still emails us after 2 years asking if we have added any "new features". But he wouldn't just sign up and try it out, lol. But you are right. Always be polite and leave the door open for anyone. Unless they are rude to you. Those types, I tell them to f' off (not literally though).
Many comments saying something to the effect of "$140 for $80 worth of groceries? Robbery!"

What's $80 worth of groceries? It's what you're willing to pay $80 for. The grocery store is marking up the food from their suppliers, is that a rip off? Grocery stores in urban areas charge more than in rural areas, rip off? When there's only 1 small store in an area (food deserts) they charge 10-30% more - an outrage?

This is great information to have and a benefit to consumers that they know the difference, but if Instacart gives you a price and you pay it then that's a fair price by definition. It's not an outrage in any way.
I have a similar problem. Except I have lots of ideas. But it always ends up being things no one wants. I guess the solution to both our problems is to look for problems that lots of people want solved.
There are some aggregates who hold as a truth that some mathematics constructs, such as a circle, are "prior to knowledge". This is summarized, at length, by Kant in his argument for some truths being a priori, or before knowledge. Kant's stated purpose of his critique of such logic was a proof of god, or a higher state of being.

I would argue the 'perfect circle' is inherent in every circle, similarly to how it is inherent in your dismissal of it

But if you require a more direct understanding I would say there is a perfect circle in every rotation
I'm not an expert :D

but what seems to be working for me, taking a lot of notes, looking back at failures for where I can learn. I try to do research on the prospect before I call. I think honestly trying to help the customer (and not just sell your solution) is important too.

Is there any reason you couldn't simply make a Spanish language by taking a well-established English one, e.g. Java, and simply translating the keywords individually using a syntax-aware translator? This transpilation approach is used by lots of esoteric programming languages, and since you wouldn't even be changing the syntax, this would be simpler than most.

I suspect the reason this hasn't caught on is that there just aren't that many keywords to learn, and that paying the ongoing tax of having to translate every code example on the web is worse than the one-time cost of just learning the keywords in English. This is for "real" programming use cases anyway; it might be a different consideration for educational languages.

The secret is specialization.

One beginner mistake I did was positioning myself as a generalist. I reluctantly started to accept the advice of positioning myself as a specialist a couple years ago and now I want to go back in time and punch the former me in the face. It really works: it is easier to find work and I get better clients.

That's really not true; there's only a scarcity if you insist on locality. There's no shortage of qualified remote workers when you open up your search the whole country or whole world. Employers crying about scarcity are employers who haven't figured out remote working is the future.
Here's a neat primer from Vox on some of the social science behind IQ. It's incredibly predictive of people's life outcomes!

Markets are not created by God. They are the result of laws and policies - as is also true of the distribution of income. We, as a society, can decide how we want our economy to work. (There is plenty of literature describing how free market is a myth.) So "how markets work" in Paris will be with a 60% tax - hopefully it will achieve their goals - otherwise, they can try other things.
It looks like you're using national average electricity pricing of about 10 cents per kwh. In California there's a tiered pricing schedule; the more you use the more it costs -- up to a max of around 500% in Jan 2007.

With this in mind his load is closer to 24A. Seems entirely reasonable for 2007 with incandescent strings. I remember tripping 20A breakers with incandescent lights and having to run lines from different circuits in my childhood.
So by this definition, buying a broad market index with 10% leverage would be investing and advantage play or skilled poker would not be gambling?
This. It is very common for guys who are out of work to be much less productive around the house despite having more time available to dedicate to housework. Tons of guys are not brought up doing housework and being detail-oriented about this stuff, so in a lot of relationships where the guy is at home more often (for whatever reason), he doesn't know how to pick up the slack at home.

I'm not saying this is because those guys are dumb or lazy or malicious; I have trouble with it and don't consider myself those things. My girlfriend and I try to split stuff up evenly (we both have jobs and neither of us likes housework, so we try to be fair), but I still find it hard to remember to do certain things that she has been doing for years (e.g. remembering to clean the toilet bowl), or I will not prioritize certain other things that she makes sure to do promptly (e.g. I will wait longer to do laundry). I am trying to pull my weight, but I can definitely tell that I am catching up to her in housework productivity. And, from most anecdotes I hear, this is a very common (though obviously not universal) phenomenon.

This is not to say that there are not other things wrapped up in this (people are attracted to roles, and I am sure plenty of women in traditional subcultures find jobless men just plain unattractive regardless of their value in other dimensions). But I can definitely see why someone who is already going to have to raise and provide for a kid would be reluctant to bring another person into a lifelong relationship when that other person (judging from widespread anecdotal evidence) will very likely not be much help at home while also not contributing a paycheck.

If you are permanently unemployed, you don't pay taxes, you get subsidies for food, for rent, for health care, for heating, and for a plethora of other services, if you know how to game the system properly. You may be on "disability", and if you're smart about it, you probably work a little bit off the books, cash-only.

There's a whole system of perverse incentives and interacting welfare programs that produce income cliffs where it is suboptimal to work more and have greater income, because that small increase in wages results in a much larger loss of services.
While I've never seen a graying Chia Pet before, I would've preferred a link to the NYT article [0] on which that blog post was based. The blog post wasn't even by him, it was just republished from ZeroHedge where it was credited to "Tyler Durden."

It's an interesting story, I had not heard of "practice firms" as a form of training for the unemployed. They don't really say how long people stay in the training program, I think one quoted person had been there for four months, which seems like a long time. "The success rate of the training centers is high. About 60 to 70 percent of those who go through France’s practice firms find jobs, often administrative positions, Mr. Troton said.

But in a reflection of the shifting nature of the European workplace, most are low-paying and last for short stints, sometimes just three to six months."

I don't think you are aware of what is claiming this. ;)

Perspective matters in terms of "proving" something outside of observation, by the assumed fact observation can change perspective.

In other words, if all of this is a single entity, it's going to be hard to prove that because bits would exist outside perception due to the cost of it being a recursive operation. One may not know oneself without recursion.
I don't know that gender has much to do, necessarily, with the fact that it's hard to find a partner when your life consists of not doing much and watching reruns.

The guilt-shame-depression-guilt cycle is certainly reinforced in non-working men by indoctrination in a particular strain of patriarchal gender roles. Having a little voice in the back of your head constantly yelling at you for being a failure and "not really a man" can't be healthy.
What's going on in this article? Is it the author speaking about having bad hardware and configuration?

> In real life, if you had your devices close enough to each other and to the access point, about the best you could reasonably expect [with 802.11b] was 1 Mbps—about 125 KB/sec.

I used 802.11b a lot. In a non crowded situation reaching ~5.5mbit was not a problem at all. I remember seeing transfer speeds of about 700KB/s.

Why the author ignores the theoretical top speed which is something around ~60% of 11mbit is beyond me.

Then the author continues with the same thing again;

>your best case scenario [with 802.11g] tended to be about a tenth of that—5 Mbps or so

This again is not true. In a non crowded situation I had no issues reaching 2-3MB/s, which is closer to the theoretical limits of 802.11g after factoring in some signal loss.

Surely, today when everybody is having wifi you would probably not reach 700KB/s on 802.11b or 3MB/s on 802.11g, but back when it began it was actually feasible.

It's not odd at all, those are old school companies playing by the old rules of looking for candidates locally. And demonstrating your skills isn't bending over, it's showing your value and it's how you get a job. Seriously, this notion that you should be hired for a high paying job without needing to audition for it is just absurd; I wouldn't hire anyone with your attitude.
Well what happens when people start modifying people not for illness, but for other characteristics. You start having parents paying for their kids to make them faster, stronger, smarter, etc. You are left with two classes of citizens which might already be the case with wealth inequality. What about athletics with gene doping? It might be inevitable, but you have to think about what might end up happening.

I work at Monzo. We've posted an update on the situation on our blog: https://monzo.com/blog/2017/03/05/outage/
The remainder of the paragraph and the next:

"Fewer men were working in manufacturing, which tended to mean their wages were lower than they had been when manufacturing had more of a presence in their area. And their wages were not significantly higher than women’s wages, which they had been during the heyday of manufacturing. (Fewer women worked in manufacturing in the first place, so they were less affected by the shocks.)

"This made the men less appealing to the women, the authors suggest—so there were fewer marriages. They find that trade shocks reduced the share of young women who were married, and reduced the number of births per woman."

In terms of marriage candidates, those are the same problem (except those who had moved elsewhere).
The Amazon pricing makes sense though, because Amazon is paying the cost of shipping it to your door rather than you paying the cost of time, money, and gasoline to go fetch it at a store and bring it back. Amazon's model is at least price-transparent.
If the owners are paying property tax on (very expensive) homes then the extra revenue should be very beneficial to poor people who use city services and contribute little to no tax revenue. If there is no property tax, or it is abated (NYC), or the city prevents new construction, then it is another issue.
I married a woman who definitely filtered based on earning ability. Not in terms of "must be a millionaire" but in terms of "must have some evidence that he will be able to hold down a steady job." I'm pretty sure that if at some point in our relationship before we got married I had decided to permanently quit working and play video games all day, she would have broken up with me. I think the majority of rational women who are not independently wealthy do this.

In fairness, she also imposed these rules on herself, so that she could take care of herself and any children in the event something happened to me. (She works part-time in a highly paid field. Partly because it interests her to work, and partly as an economic hedge -- we don't really need her income now, but if something happened to me, she could switch to full time and support the family.)

It's economically rational to want a spouse who can earn money. It's not necessarily gold digging.
