The American middle class is pretty broad, too. MDs are middle class, as are contractors and most, if not all, office workers; there's a divide between upper middle class and lower middle class, however.

> for those not from the UK we regard "middle class" as describing a much wider social group than say in the USA where it might be based on income. It's basically not working class and not a member of the aristocracy. Could be a QC, a CEO or school teacher.

I don't know what a QC is, but a CEO of a non-Fortune 500 company would probably be upper middle class, and a school teacher would be lower middle class unless they're in a very expensive private school. I don't know that it's strictly based on income, necessarily, as much as how much independence the job provides; whether it's a job or a career, in other words.
Since no one answered your question even remotely, no there is no cost to the ISP related to the amount of data transferred. It's basically how much pipe do you want, not how much water are you going to flow. So at the ISP I worked at we'd buy a fiber connection from say sprint, and it would be 10 gig speed. There were no costs involved with how much we transferred. 0 bytes or hit that line 100% saturation 24x7, costs the same.

For product searches, there's also Google Shopping-- this started out (as Froogle and Google Product Search) indexing any shopping sites Google found, but, as of the rebranding to Google Shopping in 2012, exclusively shows paid listings.

Google Shopping also gets more prominent placing in web searches for products than the actual web results do.

That's my point. I think we're reaching a point in history where we can start looking at slavery at its true scope and scale, both in geography and time, so I'm increasingly less enthused with analysis that doesn't attempt to look beyond the US's involvement during the antebellum period. The US is still involved -- just with a different form of slavery in a different part of the world. It's still driven to this day by largely the same economic incentives discussed here.
If Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter shut down, there'd still be a lot things on the net and ways to share stuff with people. But I'm sure many users wouldn't know what to do on the internet.

It was actually way better during DDR time, a whole lot of stuff was manufactured there was then sold in the West trough catalog order.

Didn't happen out of anywhere that even companies like IKEA had stuff manufactured there [0], back then the DDR was a bit what China is nowadays to the Western world.

Sadly a lot of those industries were simply sold off and liquidated, sending millions of people into unemployment, by the Treuhandanstalt [1]. With nobody really investing much to replace these lost jobs, only plenty of money for infrastructure trough the Soli.

> Lisp is a programmable programming language.
— John Foderaro, CACM, September 1991

Often times programming languages are designed with a particular use case in mind. (E.g. JS: web, Perl: scripting, Erlang: telephony, etc.) LISP was made to think about computation, and it acts well as a programming language work with programming.

One of the goals of Racket (a dialect of LISP) is to make it easy to create your own languages.

Apparently you took the flea market comparison as disparaging and it was intended that way. Why? What's wrong with flea markets? I shop there regularly and have sold there many times.

Care to share what software/hardware you use?
Okay, there's a lot to unpack here. First arbitrary code execution doesn't really matter. We're talking about a client-server relationship. Just because you have arbitrary execution on your laptop doesn't mean my server's security is compromised. And just because you have arbitrary code execution in a sandbox, container, flatpak, VM, or other host and can talk to my compositor doesn't mean it's compromised.

The security model for Wayland is that it should enable you to create secure systems if you wish to plug the rest of the holes. You can't really use Xorg in a secure system because being able to talk to the X server at all exposes too much privilege.

Screen recording (and taking screenshots) is a bad fit for the Wayland protocol because then what is a very small and lean protocol suddenly needs to know about things like image and video encodings. And since it's a display-only protocol you either have to teach Wayland about auto streams and mixing or stitch together your audio out of band.

But fine, we somehow all agree that such things are in the scope for a display protocol. Recording your screen is still a privileged operation and Wayland doesn't have an authentication or permissions system. How should they authenticate? In a way that a malicious program can't fake?

We end up just reinventing dbus, polkit, pulseaudio, pipewire but in a way that ensures that you can't swap out those components for something else.

If you care about standardization then it's really not that bad: GNOME and KDE typically work in tandem when desiging dbus interfaces and smaller DE's end up implementing those. So far the world hasn't ended for media controls and it won't end for screenshots.

Your assessment is wildly inaccurate. Windows NT is a general purpose OS like Linux and the lower layers really don't know or care about the GUI.

The Windows NT kernel has been carefully designed like that from the start. In fact, the Windows part of NT is called a Windows subsystem. Windows kernel DOES NOT do windowing. The Executive, Kernel, Device drivers and the HAL are cleanly separated.

In fact, Microsoft provides Windows Nano Server which is a totally headless installation with no GUI components.
This is a weak argument. Copyright collection agencies don't represent artists. Occasionally they have a few extremely high earning media personalities (notably Metalica back in the Napster days), but these kind of organisations don't represent musicians. Organisations of movie producers / TV producers like the MPAA have even less of a claim to any kind of artist representation. They're large media conglomerates, not artists unions.
These examples aren't so far out there. DSLs exist in other languages. Statements exist in other languages. A programmer who has never used macros can imagine being able to create these, even if they have no idea what exactly that would look like in a Lisp program.

That issue is also true of any game-changing technology you haven't used yet. If you hadn't used a personal computer, we could enumerate the features and advantages, but you probably wouldn't be able to truly appreciate it until you used one yourself.
I think the biggest change is that you can't easily find the good parts of the internet through Google anymore.

There's another facet to this. Some athletic shoes have recently started using advanced "3D" knitting machines for the uppers. With traditional shoe making, there's waste when cutting the components of the upper from a sheet of material. But a knitted upper has essentially zero waste material, because it's created to the precise target shape.

I.e. it's an additive manufacturing process like a 3D printer rather than a subtractive process.

There's also the fact that the Berlin split forced a whole lot of rather successful German companies to relocate from East to somewhere else in the West.

You stated that you don't want to "diminish this piece", but then go on to describe American slavery (this project's sole focus) as "one particular (and, indeed, relatively small-scale) instance". Your comment also contains multiple points (e.g. "slavery wasn't invented in America", "American slaves were enslaved in Africa", "slavery still exists in non-American places today") that are regularly used by people trying to diminish or erase the impact of slavery and racism on American culture today.

Because the project is investigating the legacy of American slavery, I think discussing current global slavery is at best off-topic.

Disney: Our Friend the Atom (1957)
> London incomes are substantially lower than New York incomes, while transit fares in London are substantially higher.

Right, which is why I agree NYC subway fares should be higher, and shouldn't be a flat-rate no matter where you are going, which is what they are today IIUC.

But lower incomes than NYC that also means the London underground's labor costs are lower. Londoners make do with the higher fares despite their lower incomes because driving is even more expensive.

> London’s and New York’s subways have almost identical track mileage in cities that are similar in population and density. London’s system is expanding more now, but again that’s due to more liberal policies in New York. The US has some of the strongest public sector unions in the world, which drives up capital costs. It also has stringent environmental review and public participation laws for transit projects, which again drives up capital costs.

Without a citation (I'm genuinely interested) for a comparative strength of transit unions for NYC and London and the resulting effect on capital costs, there is nothing backing this statement besides what appears to be your general anti-union ideology.

London Underground workers are part of a national union [1], and have organized a number of strikes, as recently as 2017 [2]. Regarding environmental reviews TfL has to do those also [3]. Please provide some references to support the assertion that their reviews are sufficiently less onerous than NYC's.

[2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Underground_strikes
[3] https://tfl.gov.uk/corporate/publications-and-reports/enviro...

Ultimately, Londoners pay a higher price for a higher quality of public transit service. Setting up the system to work that way that way isn't the result of a religious adherence to "liberal" or "conservative" policies, it's a decision to make public transit a priority and establishing whatever structures and incentives are needed to achieve that.
In my opinion, religion is such a powerful force because it allows us to view human behavior through spiritual metaphors. We can agree to disagree but I believe the original sin framing is apt, particularly when discussing slavery with those who rightfully argue that they had nothing to do with the actions of their ancestors.

Atonement and repentance are also accurate, because too many of us believe that once the Civil War was over all Americans were equal, this is just not the case. Discrimination on the level of American slavery compounds and effects us to this day. Most black Americans still live in the South, Southern schools are more integrated than Norther n schools because Brown v. BoE was more heavily enforced there. Certain counties in the South needed to get sign off from the Department of Justice to change their voting laws because they were found to be continuing their long history of discrimination against black people, a white nationalist shot up a Walmart partly because despite the fact that racially infused murder has been a Hallmark of our nation for hundreds of years -- we still don't take it seriously enough to fund counter efforts.

Perhaps I'm blinded, but almost every social story in America today is connected back to the effects of slavery and racism.
Contempt isn't fair, but neither is calling this effort "collective action". The impetus for Youtube to care isn't that the organizers represent lots of people producing lots of value for Google. It's that they run an unrelated metalworkers union, so they have "deep pockets and army of lawyers", and they'll use those resources to hurt Youtube if their demands aren't met.
They're also rarely useful things to do in regular software development.
