I guess I interpreted the argument as being about workers and employers, with healthcare cost as a given, with the debate mainly being about how much the employer should subsidize healthcare. Which basically amounts to how high should the wage be since you can lump in any subsidy to healthcare with the standard wage and consider that the entire compensation package that's being negotiated over. And in the case of software engineers specifically, which is what I responded to, the market has a lot of buyers and sellers.

The one time our country was attacked in recent memory was on 9/11/2001 and despite our ridiculously large "defense" we couldn't even get a F-16 or two scrambled to protect our biggest and richest city after the first plane hit? It was like 45 minutes later, and <<crickets>> .... Our military is simply not lined up around the border defending our country one bit, it is much too busy building and defending an empire around the world that, honestly, doesn't do that much for Main Street, USA.

And I suppose you think that our invading soveriegn nations and causing civilian deaths in the 6-figures doesn't piss off the next generation and lead to more terrorists? Oh, and we have a bad habit of losing weaponry in countries all over the world too...what happens to all that, whose hands does it fall into? I could go on. and on. and on. and on.

you will find many points that will make such a person a really unsuitable soldier, for example "Mistrust authority — promote decentralization", which is at least in my worldview quite the opposite of the life as a soldier, where obedience, chain of command etc. are central.

The same holds for "All information should be free", which is quite in the spirit of Snowden and Assange, but quite the opposite of the values of being a soldier, where military secrets are (for good or bad) of importance.

The US generally does not export its most advanced defense technology. Almost all fighter aircraft exports over the past century have have limitations on its equipment. Generally the receiving country replaces some equipment with their own domestic variants. Israel and Japan do this with their US fighter aircraft.

Trusting an ally with any version of the F-35 is a big thing. The base F-35 is still going to be a very great fighter aircraft.

The whole thing with Mercury was readily visible and had been observed for a long time, but Newton and others never came up with an acceptable explanation for it while Einstein did. This didn't involve insane precision or high speeds or anything like that. (I guess the Sun counts as a pretty large mass, though.) And the basic rules of Newtonian gravity have been repeatedly questioned lately (beyond Einstein's revisions), but I don't know if any of that has stuck.

> Warmer air can hold more water vapor.

Yes indeed it can, and said water vapor (being a greenhouse gas) can induce more greenhouse gas effects. But this appears to be routinely glossed over, as if it's just a non-issue; not everyone agrees with that assessment, though.

As to the warmer air thing, lots of people make statements to the effect that warmer air holding more water vapor will lead to much heavier rainfall and such. Which certainly MIGHT be true, but it doesn't HAVE to be true. Why? Because there's nothing that says that all of that additional water vapor has to fall out of the sky in one fell swoop; a lot of it may just stick around as higher humidity. Plus it is well-known that rain sometimes falls from the clouds only to evaporate again in the warmer, drier air underneath those clouds, so it never actually makes it to the ground, and generally warmer air may lead to more of that. You almost never hear these facts mentioned, though.

Funny story: Some years back I was listening to a science podcast where a climatologist and an oceanographer were guests, and the subject of sea and air temperatures came up. The climatologist made a statement about "warming temperatures leads to more storms" and such, but the oceanographer corrected him, saying that while that used to be the thinking, further research had shown that if sea and air temperatures would changing more or less in tandem (both warming up together, in this case), then surprisingly the overall effect on storms actually appeared to be pretty inconsequential. And I thought the climatologist was going to blow a gasket over this; I mean, how DARE the oceanographer go "off message" like that!
The devil is in the details, so they say, but what you describe is not negligence. They didn't disable a safety feature and do nothing, they replaced a safety feature with something else. You'd need to make the case that this something else was somehow deficient in some material way and management shipped this feature knowing it was materially deficient for this to be negligence.

Why don't we instead start with the individual who was supposed to be monitoring the road and the vehicle's systems? It's well known at this point that they in fact were negligent in their duty.
A consequence of this is that the language has many severe limits. For example, number of function parameters, number of local variables, amount of code inside a conditional branch etc. Working around these limits can often feel like being a human-compiler.

Disney World is a magical place. Not everyone wants or has the means to leave the country but going to Disney you still get that feeling of being somewhere else. It transports you into a whole different world. You don't even need kids to enjoy all the wonders of the parks. While for me I would love to explore the world and plan on doing so with some of my future vacations I can see where some people would hazard their limited time off to going to a place they know they can enjoy and be transported out of their every day stresses.

The Value of Product Win / Loss Analysis
This isn't a situation where poor people are losing out because rich people are getting something extra; it's a situation where resources that would normally go unused are being used more efficiently, and rich people are paying money for it that largely goes not to Scrooge McDuck, but countless employees at Disney and in related work.
I still feel like it's a high amount when it's the only option. I'd happily pay £10/month to split between the channels I'm subscribed to, or £2/month to a few good channels. I don't feel like I get any more value out of YouTube compared to e.g Netflix or Spotify, so I don't want to spend more than I spend on those, but I do feel like it's worth contributing some money towards the creators.

I guess your point stands about it being a donation, more for dedicated fans that want to support their favourite creators. But I feel like there are plenty of people with similar opinions to mine and the parent poster - I'd happily pay a similar price to a Netflix/Spotify subscription to YouTube, if the money was going towards creators of good content. But I'm not as interested in giving £5/month to specific channels.

Of course, almost all decent creators have Patreons these days, so I should probably go and put my money where my mouth is...

I think part of it is that if you grow up poor you see a rise, where is a lot of people you are working with are happy where they are, although others perceive them as successful.

At risk of sounding pretentious, as you move through the economic strata of society, you realize that most people don't move - they are just where their initial socio-economic status put them.

So as a poor kid moving, you understand the ability to move up at a deeper level, and you are also capable of making moves.

I do find that the higher I move, the harder it is to compete.

Anyway, that's my rant. P.S. I am not implying I am somewhere high in life - far from it, but took a lot of little jumps to get even here, which is kind of depressing.

One of the motivating cases for this proposal is that gcc/clang, without fwrapv, will both implement wrapping on most architectures (since that is what the processor implemements) and silently remove manual overflow checks for overflow because it is "impossible" under a stupid interpretation of what UB means. Similarly, those compilers will remove manual checks for null pointers if there is a prior dereference to a pointer on the theory that dereferences of null pointers are "impossible" even when they happen.

Anectodally, but most of the breakage around Android build system I see online and with people I mentor is because they don't actually bother to read the first thing about how their build system works.

Obviously this is massively speculative at this point in the conversation, largely a thought experiment, but --

Any side payment to the directors and staff outside of the acquisition - such as a "hiring bonus" as you suggest, which lead to the sale of assets at a lower price than would otherwise be the case - I'm pretty certain (again, in UK law, and I'm certainly not a lawyer), that this would be seen by the courts as a bribe, ie. money paid to perform their duty to the company improperly.

It seems like you looked more closely than I did at this kind of dataset. What kind of data did you look at, local temperature measurements? Did you figure out by which rules the data was 'mangled'? (Maybe I should invest some time over the weekend and do it too.. hm. )

> BTW, whenever someone mentions "the data" I always ask this question, and I almost never get an actual answer back: Is the data that you're referring to raw data, or adjusted data, or proxy data, or modeled data, or infilled data, or what?

Raw data in itself is not much use as you have mentioned. Nobody wants to look at spectra and electronic counts. (Properly) adjusted data is better, but not a lot is available for the less recent past. Proxy data also needs to be adjusted for the processes that left the record, but can then be used. Modelled or infilled data does not count since it is not 'real' data. So, adjusted data and proxy data.

If you look at all the datasets in Figure TS.1 (https://ipcc.ch/pdf/assessment-report/ar5/wg1/WG1AR5_TS_FINA...) here, do you really believe all of those datasets are problematic? Do you have a problem with the assertion that an increase in CO2 increases the energy coming into the Earth System? Where do you believe it goes, if not?

> folks who come along and say "Good news everyone! The situation may not be as dark as it first appeared." often just get beaten down mercilessly

I've never found anyone with good arguments backing them up, sadly. The hopeful ones who want to employ technology and engage in climate engineering make sense, at least, though many of the proposed techniques have.. interesting side effects in the models and don't all fully work. It's a chance, but it's better if we don't have to try. (Long term we need this tech anyway; who wants an ice age? That'd be even worse. Let's just test it on Venus first.)

> If you want to take a step back and get a breath of fresh air, consider the fact that throughout human history various episodes of doomsday-cult type thinking have come and gone repeatedly, usually with minimal aftereffects.

That would be good. But also consider that many of these problems were non-issues because action was taken to prevent them (such as the acid rain problem, the ozone hole, smog and freshwater pollution(where it applies)), and they were local and fixable fast (stop emitting pollution with a short lifetime and be done with the problem within a few days). If expectations such as yours prevent us from acting, that might be a problem.

I also don't expect the most dire predictions to come true, because I want to believe we either don't go the 'business as usual' emission plan or find a last-minute save in a technique for fast CO2 sequestration. Both of those require action though, and accepting that increasing CO2 in the atmosphere will lead to changes. (We have enough refugees everywhere already, and citizens in other places unhappy about it.)
