The headline doesn't match the article.

The article ends with "And so economists dusted off Keynes. Countries that enthusiastically followed his advice and used public funds to stimulate demand came out of the recession much better off than those that hesitated. China’s decision in 2008 to inject stimulus spending worth more than 12% of GDP looks smart in retrospect."

The title should really say -- "Keynes was right. Gen Z is screwed because we didn't follow his advice".

But the poor fortunes of Gen Z (in the US) are mostly due to a shift in power to big corporations caused by a systematic dismantling of labor unions and the outsourcing of manufacturing to China. Technology is an enabler but not the central culprit.

I'm perfectly aware of that. My point stands - using a concrete language to generalize over some abstract ideas might be confusing for those who are unfamiliar. In general, Lisp dialects strive for simplicity.

I'll bite. My father worked there from early 70s to late 90s.

Samsung dynasty is famous for being anti-union. That anti-union stance is deeply embedded in the company DNA. Union busting activities have been going on since day 1.

The Samsung founder once said, "Union over my dead body". Throughout its 50 year history, the company managed to operate without any official Union representation.

And if you spend time there long enough like my father, that DNA gets slowly worked into you, just like the current execs being tossed into jail.

A few years after my father left Samsung, he ended up as a chief exec at a pharma company for 10 years. For an older generation guy, he is extremely left-leaning and progressive. Except his disdain for unionizing. He would talk painfully about dealing with union leaders at company plant.

Some of that is probably attributable to his Samsung days.

This is a big message being sent to Samsung management culture from SK government who has turned blind eye to its union busting practice for 50 years.

That may be a general big-tobacco vape pen problem. I had the same issue with a Vype pen. I had to go to an emergency service because I couldn't take deep breaths after using it for a couple of weeks. Before that I smoked cigarettes for 7 years(1-1.5 packs a day) and vaped (dual battery, large mods) for 3. Once I started using Juul type of vape devices for 2-3 weeks, that messed me up I don't know why. My theory is that these devices don't have air holes like normal vape devices have. So trying to suck air/vapor without any air holes may make your lungs go kaputt. They are convenient tho I will give them that.

Back when I watched the original NOVA episode, I noticed they showed his UUCP email address. Since I had recorded it on VHS, I paused it so I could write it down. I emailed Cliff, apologetically, but thanking him for the story. I was quite surprised when he replied. Super nice guy, great story well told. It was probably a decade later that I read the book but somehow his narration in the NOVA episode is very personable and real, it just nails the story; and the interview with the actual hacker is great.

> One question I have is how beneficial these changes would be for GDP of Korea. On paper, these changes sound nice as they would benefit employees and make things "fair". But changing things dramatically can have side effects (ex. higher minimum wage led to many small shops closing). More regulations might limit Samsung's ability to compete internationally, which is bad as Samsung (and Korea in general) rely heavily on export-based economy.

Does GDP matter if a large segment of the population is miserable? Samsung's ability to compete internationally is important but I'd rank that as a second to the health and happiness of it's populace.

> higher minimum wage led to many small shops closing

I don't quite buy this -- higher minimum wages might indeed increase costs for small shops, but this is a shallow assessment:

- A clearer definition of "small shop" is needed -- most really small shops are run by the owner/owner's family, no? If this is not the case, then I'd argue that businesses that are dependent on not paying workers a living wage should not exist (if Korea's people wish it so).

- Higher wages usually means more money spent on goods for all but the upper echelon of the population who may or may not be more interested in amassing wealth for whatever reason

I suppose you are correct, Tor is not 100% trust free. But with a VPN, all trust is placed in a single party. With Tor, trust is divided between nodes - connecting to a single malicious node won't hurt you. You don't have to trust the software either, since you can read the source code to ensure trust is divided properly. But even with an open-source VPN client, you have to trust the server.

> Always hit an entry guard through at least a VPN.

That's a horrible misconception. There is no added benefit to using Tor over a VPN. It only worsens the risk - you're essentially creating a permanent entry node with a money trail.
> Perhaps government should not have so much power that people have an economic incentive to corrupt it?

Seems dubious. Wealth, left to its own devices, is not known for trending towards equality.

And disempowering the government, while removing incentive for corruption, also remove one of the only checks on capital.

That's clearly not what the comment you're replying to was saying.

It was saying, I might have my moral opinions in a vacuum about whether prostitution is good or bad, but the moral principle of trafficking being bad overrides that, and we should follow what the evidence says. If the evidence says that decriminalizing sex work reduces trafficking, then a moral opinion against sex work doesn't outweigh the evidence.

It was clearly not about higher moral principle of fundamental liberty.

Knowing about Argos compatibility is super useful! Upvoted.
Their contention is that legal sex work creates a market that incentivises sex trafficking, in which case it should be illegal to protect women from being victimized.
That still feels intuitive. Like for any open interval there are uncountably many reals and a finite number of integers. It seems like nothing changes as you expand the interval.
This is a big simplification: There are male sex workers and female sex worker customers even if most of each population is the other way around. Additionally, voluntary sex workers themselves generally oppose the forced labour market (i.e. sex slavery) as much as the prohibitionists, even if they're understandably focusing more on decriminalizing themselves.

And I don't think the sex-worker-exclusionary feminists are representative of most feminists, even if the overlap between their views on this topic and those of conservative and religious groups gives them a big megaphone.

Regarding legal presence, many sex workers are in a country legally aside from their choice to do sex work, sometimes even with work permission for most jobs. (Canada has some relevant exclusions in their standard open work permit, for example.)
Women use sex workers too.

Men “lose” too if their partners are “tempted” by legal prostitution (what are we “losing” here by the way?)

The problem is "related to the business of the company". For a small company, that may seem reasonable, because the company probably only does one or two things. However, for a large company like Google, that basically means "everything".

In my opinion, the right approach is to instead talk about your work duties at the company. If you work on your own time on something unrelated to your work duties, but related to someone else's at the company, you should still get to keep full rights to your work. If you weren't asked to do that work for your job, why would the company have a right to the result, even if they find they have some interest in it?
Thanks!

Thankfully (and also regrettably) in the org I work in now we don't have a pr standard yet... But we do use jira some of our people commit with just the bug prefix and number and not at least the title.. I really don't want to have to go paste that into the jira URL (usually more than one) to see if what you think is the issue is really the issue... Having at least the description for what you fixed helps...

Drew lives in Philadelphia, and he notes that it works, so yes.

Here's a tip, though, if you ever get concerned about whether or not a phone will work with your carrier. Check what modem it has. In the PinePhone's case, it's the EG25-G.

http://files.pine64.org/doc/datasheet/project_anakin/LTE_mod...

So now that we know the name, let's look and see if your carrier mentions it as one it approves. For the sake of brevity, I'll assume you're on AT&T.

Google's cache nicely and conveniently converts spreadsheets into web documents, so let's view it on that:

The causal relationship seems like a stretch here. I highly doubt reducing air pollution will cure anyone’s depression.

That said, it has other value in signally regions of high air pollution are regions of higher proportional depression.

Areas of high pollution are less desirable to live in. If you live right next to a highway, garbage dump or power plant, your property value is going to be lower. (I must admit, I’m taking a US-centric perspective here)

With that in mind, you could just as easily conclude that living in poorer regions causes depression.

Anyone who thinks curing depression is as simple as cleaning up the air is oversimplifying a much more complicated relationship.
>I'm not sure there are many examples of enlightened robber barons who allowed progressive changes that were counter to their interests but improved society as a whole.

Bill Gates' charitable work comes to mind. I wouldn't call him really a robber baron as the term implies wealth gained unfairly or from others involuntarily. The Fed is printing almost another half trillion in cash to inject, subsidize Wall St., for example. I also don't know if the term applies fairly to Samsung, as while the Korean history of chaebol companies was fueled by crony capitalism, their wealth does primarily come from their export-driven business where they compete globally. It's not like a JP Morgan (the person) or JP Morgan (the Wall St bank today) who really rely on borderline slavery from captive labor markets, or welfare from taxpayers.
Yeah, from a candidate perspective that's a good idea. From an interviewer perspective, though, it's important to remember that many very good candidates will feel uncomfortable doing so.
