> The credibility of his own perspective on this matter is pretty fundamental to the basis of his perspective and his quote

Why? OP claimed to see people on left-wing side use this tactic (and assuming he is telling the truth) how is his/her perspective shifted?

The OP stated left wing tactics boils down to: "You're view doesn't count since your aren't black/trans/queer/female enough". Your message was almost, "Your view shouldn't count because of your perspective".

Personally, I've seen the same argument be used (i.e. "Shut up cis/hetero/male/white/etc.") in various forms on various forums. It would not surprise me that it's used in Democratic circles, in some shape or form.

> The ACA ("Obamacare") did a lot to make the US system look more like Germany and Switzerland.

In Germany you're automatically enrolled in public insurance unless you opt out and choose private insurance, no? That's completely different from the ACA, which has no automatic enrollments (if you're application gets stuck at the exchanges, good luck), no option to keep public insurance (if you're on Medicaid and you're income rises, you might have a month long gap between being kicked off Medicaid and getting a new health plan), pushes people into employer provided plans, and generally has a host of problems and complications that lead to 10.9% of Americans still be uninsured (and those who are insured still facing massive problems with healthcare costs).
CVs like these are sanitized to only contain unclassified ingormation regarding otherwise classified work. So the problem here is not classified information leaks, it would be better ability to target certain folks based on their work (Although honestly, many folks who have done classified work seem to not use much discretion when setting up LinkedIn profiles).

hmm Peterson's analysis of postmodernism may be reductionist. It's only a single facet of postmodernism, but postmodernism is more like a 'condition' that can affect both the 'left' and the 'right' . For example, both the left and the right question whether modernity is always an unalloyed 'good'

http://greyenlightenment.com/defending-postmodernism/

Likewise, many on the far-right oppose ‘Whig history’, a historical narrative that posits the inevitability and desirability of liberty and enlightenment values, culminating in modern forms of liberal democracy and constitutional monarchy. The same for Francis Fukuyama and the inevitability of liberal democracy, what he called ‘the end of history’.

Peterson says postmodernists don't engage in debate but that is also false. There is footage of Foucault debating Noam Chomsky.

If we define any statement to be the perspective of the author, then no disagreement can ever be made which would not be ad hominem. At that point we can give up on discussing all together and return to the old ways of solving conflicts with violence.

If you want to have a discussion you must separate statements from perspective. Otherwise we just end up arguing if the credibility of your perspective of
nkoren is pretty fundamental to the basis of your perspective. If we then call that perspective to be ignorance on your part, we simply enter the realm of name calling and the quality of discussion enter that special place for which a lot of words are waisted and no agreements are ever found.

If you wanted to, with WebComponents you could easily use an x-PageFoo tag as a parent tag that orchestrates other child components. Your WebComponent is just a bunch of HTML, Javascript and CSS, it can really do what ever you want it to. It isn't a framework though, so to suggest that it doesn't provide as much as React is being a bit disingenuous, as it's not trying to. It's trying to formalise some of the foundations for things like react.

Smaller scale but for fun, in vanilla WebComponents (as implemented in Chrome) I put together a Slider that can then accept and consume child elements that add behaviour, like this:

<x-slider data-config="{autoplay:true}">
<img src="some.jpg" />
<img src="some.jpg" />
<x-slider-controls /> //Introduces left and right slider controls
<x-slider-dots /> //Introduces slider dots
</x-slider>
They keep spelling "Cartesian" as "Carthesian".

That's actually not true. What is "neo Marxism"? As I understand it, it is the application of Marixist class theory to other non-class power structures. However I have seen nor have been able to find any evidence that this is an actually existing group that has grown out of Marxism. Furthermore, postmodernism denies the very structures in the materialist understanding of history which is essential to Marxism. So how are they compatible? These and other issues are discussed in my post and in the article I linked therein.

There's simply no evidence for it; Peterson's confusion is his own and I hope that others do not follow him on this and instead choose to do their own research into philosophy.

the real advantage is that you can pass arround your
encrypted connection as a file descriptor. so when you
add encryption to some service, you do not have to manually
replace all calls to read/write by libssl library functions
but instead you can just continue to use read()/write() calls.
pass tls connection as stdin/stdout to another process ect...

this is how plan9 does tls and how it really should have been
in the first place. adding tls support is one function call
to wrap an existing file descriptor in tls and you get another
file descriptor back.

I was asking you to provide evidence for this statement:

> Literally, under the legal definition, that's "laundering".

"Legal definitions" are defined through laws and common law interpretations of those laws. I was asking for evidence of either. Otherwise you're just making statements without any evidence. It's not a straw-man to better define your statement of "that's the legal definition" to mean "there has been a court case or statute where it has been shown that's what the law says" and then ask for proof of that. Maybe you can explain what you think a "legal definition" is and provide evidence of that?

My problems with Jira:

Permissions around issues and their state are so granular they beg to be abused.

Permissions aren't granular enough to allow teams to individualize their project's workflow as their needs evolve.

Jira constructs like states are reused in weird ways for other functionality. My favorite is the abuse of states to try and implement kanbahn style swimlanes; states which are global to an org and can thus get odd workflows attached to them by someone else.

Administered with a light touch, Jira can be fine. But it's never administered in such a fashion. NEVER.

> In US almost all hospitals are privately run, so corporations dictate prices - even if the government wanted to pay for everyone's care it would end up paying a lot more than Europeans are paying, because once again, the money would go straight in corporations pockets.

This is not at all how medical billing works.

First of all, many hospitals are structured as nonprofits. Whether or not they are, most hospitals are also barely staying afloat - a hospital that's turning 2
1-2% profit these days is doing astoundingly well. Many are going under and getting bought out by larger chains or by insurance companies.

The reason that they are doing so badly financially is because, in general, they are legally forced to lose money on half of their patients. Medicare sets its reimbursement rates unilaterally, and it reimburses about 7% less than COGS. In other words, if a vaccine costs the hospital $100/unit to purchase wholesale in bulk, Medicare pays them $93 for it. That means they've already lost money, even before they have to pay their doctors and nurses and building maintenance, etc.

Providers make up for this by over-billing the private insurers. That's why you see these stories of people who go to the ER and got charged an absurd amount for something. The hospital was presenting them with the same price they charge to private insurers (by law, they have to, at least on the initial bill). They don't actually expect individuals to be able to pay that, and in fact, an uninsured person is almost always able to negotiate that bill down if they know to try.

In short, yes, medical billing is totally fucked up. But it's not fucked up because the money goes to line corporations' coffers - it's fucked up because Medicare abuses the system to effectively pad its own budget instead of going to Congress to increase their budget.

And that's why, ultimately, Medicare will fight tooth and nail to prevent single-payer healthcare or any meaningful reform whatsoever in the US - they're the ones who stand to lose the most from it.

> It ultimately comes down to what flavour of politics you subscribe to

If you were to tell any of your progressive friends about Reg-D, but framed it as written by "the 1%" - they'll naturally think the law is unjust and shouldn't exist.

I think this has less to do with political flavor and more to do with critical thinking skills. Unless Reg-D also bans gambling at Vegas and throwing your money down a well - then it comes up short of it's protectionist goals. But it definitely succeeds in protecting qualified investors from "unqualified" investors.

> Those "studies" are self serving. That is the political propaganda keeping you feeling safe in having your rights violated.

Ah, so you're the only source of truth that I can trust in this discussion, since no study can be trusted? Awesome.

Can you answer my question about at which point do you think "freedom to invest in an enterprise" should not be allowed? I'll quote my question again:

> Third of all, is it also a violation of your rights to not be able to fund companies in countries that are at war with your country (which I assume is the US)? Is it a violation of your rights to not be able to fund illegal activity? I'm just trying to gauge at which point does your view on "the inalienable right to invest in anything" stop short?
We had to do it, but it had nothing to do performance. Massive team dysfunction and differing skill sets made it so 3 or 4 people were working on our monolith and not very effective in getting things done. We had another 5 that were very effective on other projects that didn't know the monolith stack. After some discussion we built up a design that broke the monolith into 4 parts. This let the teams work more effectively, even if it's not as efficient.

Docker compose running some integration tests with the builds helps some of the integration burden.
Been using both for years, at multiple orgs, and can say with confidence JIRA does suck. Everyone in my org had given up trying to use it, I went through the pain and don't wish it on anyone... then there's Trello, it just works expected.

With JIRA, prepare to invest significant pulling your hair out if you want to use any features. It's amazingly difficult to enable the use of the Trello-like board feature.

Go ahead, try enabling the "Agile" feature and see, it doesn't work out of the box!!! Have fun digging through Google to figure out why you're getting cryptic errors, only to finally figure it's because....

Oh, you have to set up additional permissions to enable it.

Oh, and also enable a certain field (epics) but this needs to happen in the back-end, as it's some SQL query to enable it.

Oh, but you want to sort issues by drag-drop like a real board? Nope. First go find the right permission to actually enable sorting!

Oh, but it still wont let you sort! Did you forget to 'sort by ASC' in your filter query? Otherwise, no drag-drop sorting for you!

Why those things aren't just enabled when you created the board in the first place, boggles my mind!

This research seems contrived at best. It compares strong coloured action element's to weakly coloured action element's. It just so happens that the element's on the weakly coloured version's are also using flat design. The major element here is colour.

The "research" is designed to give a certain result. If they wanted to test flat versus 3d, everything should be the same except for whether the elements are 3d or flat.

Flat design is not about using less colour to signify action. It is a lack of 3d and skeuomorphic design.
Jira makes it easy to create a sucky tool, but the real reason is always that your organization has created a sucky process. I should know, I work for a large and instantly recognizable company and our process is waterfall in agile's clothing. Sadly we have to work in a world where we have two internal organizations, and one uses Jira and the other VersionOne and both are configured to enforce this watery scrum process.

So your example of poor people that it affects punitively is a rich person who owns millions in assets?

I guess that answers your question that it doesn't affect poor people. It's almost directly analogous to saying that the estate tax affects poor people who win the lottery. Both have received massive benefits unrelated to their efforts and are no longer poor, so talking about them as if they were seems like sophistry.

There was no way to argue with Gentry; the juice was his, because he was the one who fiddled it out of the Fission Authority; without Gentry's monthly passes on the console, the ritual moves that kept the Authority convinced Factory was somewhere else, some place that paid its bill, there wouldn't be any electricity.

And Gentry was so strange anyway, he thought, feeling his knees creak as he stood up and took the Judge's control unit from his jacket pocket. Gentry was convinced that cyberspace had a Shape, an overall total form. Not that that was the weirdest idea Slick had ever run across, but Gentry had this obsessive conviction that the Shape mattered totally . The apprehension of the Shape was Gentry's grail.

Slick had once stimmed a Net/Knowledge sequence about what shape the universe was; Slick figured the universe was everything there was, so how could it have a shape? If it had a shape, then there was something around it for it to have a shape in , wasn't there? And if that something was something, then wasn't that part of the universe too? This was exactly the kind of thing you didn't want to get into with Gentry, because Gentry could tie your head in knots. But Slick didn't think cyberspace was anything like the universe anyway; it was just a way of representing data. The Fission Authority had always looked like a big red Aztec pyramid, but it didn't have to; if the FA wanted it to, they could have it look like anything. Big companies had copyrights on how their stuff
looked. So how could you figure the whole matrix had a particular shape? And why should it mean anything if it did?

Government programs can be victim to massive amounts of fraud and waste, as well as put people through a lot of hoops in order to gain the same benefits or less you had before. It has no real pressure day to day to do well, and is very slow in accepting innovations or changes.

We simply don't trust government to provide good service overall. And a lot of experiences tend to come from this; trying to get a local government to do anything to benefit a community is like pulling teeth. We'll be in the middle of economic decline, and they'll be repurposing land into dog parks.

Yes and no, it's true that there is a lot of cruft in setting up a portable write-compile-debug cycle for C with often not very helpful error messages. On the other hand you could just use an online compiler in a browser. And demonstrate all the other fun stuff on a chalk board. People that really want to go low-level then can figure it out, since they learned the terminology and the basic principles behind.

Most of the 'fun & exciting' is part of the teacher responsibility and how he/she/it teaches, as i would argue that the basics of how our stuff works is by default even more exciting than learning to use an arbitrary api of some one button click framework.

I hate JIRA, but I noticed something. If I tell people to do something, they won't do it. If I create a ticket in JIRA it has a much higher probability of getting done. It's not been too bad, after I got over the hate of not having real markdown and the 100 fields when a ticket is created that are mostly unused.
