To expand on the reasons for this a bit: In most/all EU countries "the" law is divided into public and private law. Private law regulates interactions between people (and "people-like" agents like some types of businesse). Public law regulates interactions between people and the state. Public law takes precedence over private agreements.

As an example: you can make an private law agreement to let someone else take your house in exchange for an agreed upon amount of money (otherwise known as selling it). However, you can not make a private law agreement to sell yourself into slavery, because slavery is prohibited by public law and this public regulation overrides the right to sell things that belong to yourself. Similarly, it is legal to hire someone to take away stuff in your garage, but it is not legal to hire an assassin to take your life, since the public law on murder prohibits that transaction.

In this specific case, it is not legal to sign a private law agreement with Lyft to waive your rights to resolution in court, since public law states that the parties have a right to resolution in court. The EU directive on unfair terms in consumer contracts is based on this legal principle and makes it more specific for consumer contracts.

Cookies are just string in a header. The difference is that unlike normal headers browesers treat cookie headers in a special way. They automatically add and remove keys from it, and they allow the server to set the header in a way that the client can neither see it nor change it (http only headers)
> 'intelligence' is simply the recapitulation of stuff people have already talked about and done

Your definition of intelligence is simply knowledge. That's a shaky foundation to build any sensible reasoning.

You make efforts not to call "American ingenuity" as intelligence. No, this ingenuity (which has nothing specificaly american about it) is just intelligence.

The actual application of 'prejudice' to the unknown is simply ideological rambling. American exceptionalism will never stop to astound me in its vacuity. Note that European are, or at least were equally guilty of it. But americans are only starting to know what it is to be an old society. To have entrenched interests furthering inequalities and hindering innovation (divide between the golden people from california and the inner-country pop). The new age of protectionism is there and America is on its forefront.

> Is it no surprise then that Americans have eschewed blind worship of an elite priesthood?

"Is it no surprise that humans applied very human behaviors to employ conceptual shortcuts in trying times?"

You reek of arrogance. This is pretty ironic, considering that the subtext of your comment is itself a critic of a supposed european smugness.

Italy historically had a close to purely proportional electoral system and very high electoral participation for a western developed country (it is still higher than most).

In the last 20-30 years there has been an attempt to move Italy to a two party system, first with an almost purely FPTP electoral law, then with a proportional system with large majority bonus and minimum thresholds.

The results have been an unmitigated disaster. Not only the two party system didn't materialize, major parties have disintegrated, and the population has felt increasingly disenfranchised and participation has been falling down election after election. The electoral law and constitution have been tweaked so many times that now, in a perfectly bicameral system, is is pretty much impossible to get the same majority on both chambers.
Thank you. Nicely explained.
Personally I do not have enough knowledge on the circumstances to credibly argue one way or another with regards to the alleged meddling.

> My read of it was that there was not any human or signals intelligence, only that the idea that Russia meddled in the US election fit with an established notion of what Russia might wish to do, so there was not really any need for evidence.

This is not the case. The declassified version only had open source evidence. In combination with the fact that the general public is not going to know how exactly to read an ICA or read between the lines, the release was not very helpful, as it understandably lead many to think that they were presenting their full case, rather than the reality of "evidence is too sensitive so here is some analysis of RT!" being what they put in the ICA. Definitely not a good strategy, as I said, this would have been far better for critical discussion if they figured out a way to declassify actual evidence.

I'm pretty sure, as you've heard from others, that everyone does a part of both. If you never look at the code and try to reason why it gives you the result you got in your experiment how do you get to the point of changing the code? Surely you don't experiment with code changes until the process gives you the result you want.

I've often thought the same - especially with folks that are obese enough to be bedridden. It takes a network of folks enabling the person.

But then again, I realize the vast majority of them probably feel powerless to help. I have no explanation for him not being given a caseworker to manage some of this stuff. It just seems cruel not to consistently offer these things, especially when he was clearly a threat to himself. I realize they can't force, but it should have been offered multiple times in my opinion.

I'm sure some of it is the view that he did it to himself. It is a lifestyle and a moral misgiving that he allowed himself to do that, and folks tend to throw those folks to the side. It is quite unfortunate.
> For example, while on-boarding hosts, show a short video encouraging a bit of open-mindedness.

Not a video, but AirBnB (maybe about two months ago) made EVERY host agree to not discriminate or their listings would be turned off.

I still think AirBnB is an awful company (hallway outside my apartment is currently trashed by an airbnb guest, the host doesn't care, airbnb won't get involved), but they are definitely aware of and addressing this.

From this and your other comments, you undertake a lot of mental gymnastics to let Trump off the hook. And your assertions go well beyond decrying potential abuse by intelligence agencies.

>such as making a fictitious claim about wiretapping having occurred.

Not really. Or, more specifically, only when people willfully use it in a disinformation campaign designed to sow doubt, and others promote that it is a legitimate basis for that doubt. The people behind the most recent Wikileaks dump seem to understand this, wouldn't you agree?

Thinking people still understand that implausible is not the same as actually happened, and that actual proof is required when a president charges a former president with breaking the law.
I personally enjoy owning and taking care of things because it only takes one lazy person to break something or one person that doesn't wash properly to make something gross.

I'd see myself as a caretaker of equipment and belongings using my own judgement to loan the right tool to the right person. Someone that shows care and returns items in the condition they were given vs. someone who returns items broken with excuses, consistently, over and over. Yeah, that second person, they're getting the shit end of the share stick at my shop.

It's sort of terrifying this idea, that we'll share more, is breaching now. I feel(anecdotal) that individuals in this society are becoming LESS responsible and and giving less care to the items they are responsible for which is a bad combination with a sharing model. Here is where I'd adopt a shared ownership of large items with perhaps a web of trust(ala kernal development style) to manage high quality time sharing of tools. But maybe this concern is moot once recycling, manufacturing, and cleaning become sufficiently automated that people can be lazy gross slobs that can't be bothered to clean and take care of shared space.

Disclaimer, I'm incredibly cynical after watching the newly cleaned NYC subway tunnels and tracks accumulate litter within hours. Also having troublesome roommates that live like slobs, are having trouble with infections but don't seem to understand that their living space needs to be cleaned...
The only difference I can see between your suggestion and my hypothetical scenario is whether you like the experts in charge. If you advocate for technocracy, you have to accept that you might not like the technocrats who end up in power.

When it comes to making policies on things like tax, healthcare, government spending, military intervention, etc, there are no right and wrong answers, just opinions. And often there are equally well-founded opinions that contradict each other.

Democracy solves that conundrum by getting both sides to appeal to the 'demos', with universal suffrage defining the demos as (almost) the entire adult population. How would you solve it?

By simply experimenting without understanding you run a good chance of producing code that is only correct by accident or code that is technically correct but wildly inefficient. Also by first taking the time to build up a mental model of what is going on might spend longer fixing the first and second bug (which tend to be the easy ones), but you'll spend dramatically less time fixing 12th and 13th bug (which tend to be the really tricky ones).

> I don't know why, but sometimes I think it's because we die so early.

I'm not into watches for the same reason I'm not into faberge eggs, or necklaces, or collecting sneakers: I do not need them for any practical purpose, and I am not particularly entranced by the aesthetics. (Plus, it's then just another accessory I have to keep in mind in the morning, another item I have to maintain, another _thing_ that I don't _need_.)

I think I understand what you mean about cars, especially about not buying a watch you couldn't work on. It's a combination of a hobby and a collection - it doesn't have to be practical, but it's also not going to suit everyone.

And we don't die early. We're living longer than ever. Or do you mean the philosophical sense of a human's brief lifespan in the face of universal, geological and historical time?

> Voting systems aren't a panacea.

Among modern democracies, there is a very strong positive effect of proportionality of results produced by the electoral system and all of electoral participation, degree of satisfaction with government, and number of supported dimensions of public policy debate. It's certainly not the only factor, but it's a clear, strong factor. See, e.g., Lijphart's Patterns of Democracy.

Considering all things: His life has greatly improved and he's enjoying the mobility he has. He enjoys food still - and enjoys that he has some control. The surgery gave him a way to learn that control.He also understands that gaining it back might kill him - and he regained a will to live some time back. These things make it more likely that he'll keep much of it off.

The biggest kicker, however, is that he's still likely not getting psychological care (it costs money) and loneliness is a huge issue. If these outweigh the above, it might not work out.

1) I was responding in large part to cross-country plots and regressions, e.g.,

https://randomcriticalanalysis.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/a...

2) It's not sensible to run regressions when observations consist of US and EU-(14|28) alone. Small n and these all of these common EU aggregations would be MUCH poorer than the US.

3) US states have a fiscal, political, legal, social, and other union much beyond that of EU member states in the EU. I would very much anticipate larger spillover effects between US states than between EU member states for this reason (as in, MS's standard of care will be much more like MA's than Slovakia will be like Norway), not to mention gains from greater economic union, transfers, and the like.

3) Perfectly comparable data do not exist to make direct comparisons across different levels of analysis feasible.

4) I actually did run some regressions on US states and found: (i) states vary quite substantially in their expenditure levels and (ii) consumption (PCE) to be an exceptionally stronger predictor than GDP, personal income, and some other economic indicators. DC spends more than twice as much as Utah (and if you don't like DC as an observations, similar results are found for MA)

https://randomcriticalanalysis.files.wordpress.com/2016/09/r...

Even so, even if I were to try to equate these measures, I would not except the slope within countries like this to match the cross country slope due to some of the aforementioned spillovers.

5) I actually did analyze outcomes between states and even counties.

https://randomcriticalanalysis.wordpress.com/2016/11/06/us-l...

6) Tho the US has greater geographic heterogeneity in outcomes than most of individual EU countries due to its size, greater historic diversity, and more, it's worth pointing out that health systems do not produce equal outcomes within countries. As I pointed out in the above link, the northern areas of England and southern parts of Scotland perform quite terribly.

https://randomcriticalanalysis.files.wordpress.com/2016/11/s...

These regions, btw, are where a large fraction of people in the US came from (especially those that settled in and around Appalachia). There is a whole literature indicating that "deep history" predicts economic and social outcomes many centuries later.....

What is this Super that's referred to in this piece?
Extending the argument, why do I own underwear? Surely it would be cheaper to share. If you assume I'm asleep half the time, we could burn millions of gallons of jet fuel to ship my underwear to the eastern hemisphere where someone else could wear it while I'm sleeping and vice versa. This is not a new business concept, in Japan there are vending machines for somewhat used womens underwear so not to be sexist my socks and briefs should be quite profitable when rented in Bulgaria while I am asleep. This is a billion dollar idea, underwear is a billion dollar business and depending on sleep cycles we could easily bite a 1/3 to 1/4 chunk out of the worlds underwear budget, perhaps more.

Another good argument is I only use my snow shovel a couple times per year. Why just yesterday I shoveled my front walk way. This is good whole body exercise for healthy people under age 80 or so. Obviously, because there are 8760 hours in a year and I only hold in my hands, my snow shovel, perhaps 5 hours per year total, 8760/5=1752 a shared snow shovel should be able to service 1752 households per year at 5 hours per house-year. I live in a burb with perhaps 175k households, so our entire burb "obviously" only needs to own about 100 snow shovels. After all snow shovels are expensive to buy, annoying to store, tiresome to maintain by spraying with silicone, and technology means all we need is an app and a future middleman feeling entitled to become a billionaire.

A final argument is the dreaded turkey pan. Once a year I use this giant turkey pan to roast a turkey. In theory 364 people should be able to share my turkey pan with me. Yet... And how about Christmas decorations, I only have mine up for a month or so out of the year, surely there would be no problem sharing my christmas decorations with 12 other families, think of the cost and space savings! If I were going for comedy I would point out my wife and I only have sex a couple minutes per day so there's an obvious theoretical savings there, and there's already popular phone apps such as tindr and grindr to coordinate such activities. Finally any genealogist knows that in the old days a womans uterus was in full operation like 10-15 times per lifetime but under current medical conditions and dismal economic conditions, "two or so children per woman, plus or minus one" is about average. Surely some sort of sharing economy could cut down on the biological costs of maintaining all those mostly inoperative uteruseses, or uterii or whatever. Can't get uterine cancer if you get rid of your personal uterus and join the uterine sharing economy via the "utr" phone app. Hmm that one looks roomy, swipe right swipe right!

"Timeshares" have a certain reputation, a taint to them, which the "sharing economy" soon will have.
