The idea of working for one company until you retired was dying out at least since the 401K started replacing pensions in the 90s.

There is no statistical evidence that young people are buying RVs to live in and not just recreationally.

This is mostly a puff piece, but it is saying that young people are buying smaller RVs and older people are making it more of a lifestyle.

As far as farming, the article is trying to tell a narrative, but it’s own citations don’t back it up.

The number of young farmers entering the field is nowhere near enough to replace the number exiting, according to the USDA: Between 2007 and 2012, agriculture gained 2,384 farmers between ages 25 and 34 — and lost nearly 100,000 between 45 and 54.

How? There's just two parties that have candidates who can win, and the reason there are two parties and two candidates is that Big Money is behind them.

Your project clearly prefers one of those candidates. The fact that you won't raise enough money for to pay for your hosting expenses doesn't mean you don't drive Big Money agenda. You do, only without compensation.
I've been listening to Radio 4 first thing in the morning for about 30 years - about 4 years ago I accidentally broke the power supply to our DAB radio so I started using my iPhone in a fancy dock/speaker. Which was fine.

About a month ago I found the radio in a cupboard and thought that I should either throw it away or get a replacement power supply. Having done the latter I now find that I rather like having a dedicated Radio 4 early morning device - I don't have to remember where my phone is, I don't have to fit it into some dock or fiddle with an app and is still usable even if I have misplaced by glasses.

The rest of the time I listen to whatever I want in our kitchen via my phone through a UE Boom bluetooth speaker which I inherited from our son. First thing in the morning, and before I have had any coffee, give me the good old fashioned (DAB) radio!

Edit: I should also point out that as we are in a rural area our Internet connection isn't brilliant but we do have fantastic DAB reception as there is a transmitter about 1km away on top of a nearby hill.

>If we want to fix the nation, the solution is not free College for everyone (like many young people and social democrats want to propose) the solution is to make a standard K-12 Education applicable again for most middle class jobs.

Interesting thing is, a bachelor's degree in Europe is basically that advanced K-12 you're suggesting. The main difference is that it's way cheaper, and occasionally faster (2-3 year programmes are not rare, certain countries have a degree between high school and research universities).
I have a speaker in my garden that plays bird songs to the birds, recorded from those same birds. They interact with the 'birds' in the speaker by singing back to them. I'm curious if I could infect those birds with new songs by editing those recordings.

Who isn’t embracing it? Every person I know on LinkedIn has made some sort of statement, including a few high level managers I went to school with and could call out because they say they’re an “ally” and lived in a “diverse” neighborhood when really they lived in the rich subdivision and went to private school as the neighborhood became “lower class”. But I don’t really know what putting an old classmate on blast on LinkedIn is going to accomplish.

It depends who most successfully manages to direct the energy building up behind the demand for some kind, any kind, of substantive change. Historically, that whole process used to typically take a decade or two, maybe more. But we have social media now, so I give it a couple-three years, tops. Maybe a decade if it peters out again this time like it did in 2011. But I don't think that's very likely.

Easy to get the idea that a statue of Lincoln got torn down because protestors are historically illiterate, or there's fascist spoilers in among the crowds, or whatever. No. There are no wrong statues to tear down, because who put those statues up? Rich people. Old people. People who've failed to justify their hold on power. I don't think it's quite too late for them to start to do so. But I do think they're far too stupid to realize and act on the necessity.

Being as the only reason I'm not getting fucked the same way - not quite so hard, at the moment, anyway - is the luck of having had 20 more years to work with and a chance to make a start in a somewhat less viciously extractive time, my sympathies lie with those who say that either that power will be justified or it will be taken from those who have it now and placed in other hands.

Sure, things could end up worse than they are now. But they could also end up better. If anyone could make a convincing case for how they end up better under the status quo, we would not be here. Hell, Bernie Sanders tried twice, and look what happened to him - not that I think he'd have been able to deliver on his promises, but it would've been smart to have given him the chance to try. Could probably have bought a decade or so that way, I suspect, maybe more. But instead, in 2016 the DNC rigged the primary for a candidate decades past electability who ultimately gave us Trump, and in 2020 the boomers just stomped the babies flat and gave us another possibly senile neoliberal has-been for the general, which he may still contrive to lose despite the Republican revolt against Trump - they've made a lot of ads, but we won't really know how it played out until December or maybe January, and no matter which way it goes it'll be the most questionable US presidential election result in living memory. Maybe ever. Even the AOC/Ilhan Omar crew, the best hope of a better future the status quo ante has so far managed to ante up, has started to get some real side-eye: they still have a solid Twitter game, but in policy terms they're moving toward the center, and people have started to suspect, I think rightly, that DC's capturing them. At this point there is basically no credibility left.

So it depends on who manages to direct the energy to make some kind of change. We haven't seen them emerge yet. If history is any guide, we won't see them coming, either. How it plays out in the long run is anyone's guess. How it starts is in large part up to them, whoever they turn out to be.

You can pick on examples, and have, without challenging the central point that young people are correctly recognizing the default assumptions of how American lives go as, A, a scam set up to funnel money to people who already have far too much, and B, so utterly rigged that even if that was what you wanted to do, it's next to impossible even to make a decent start.

They see it and they're calling bullshit, as yet not in a very coordinated way, but calling bullshit still.
Right. And it does not discuss those tradeoffs. Ignoring that every time steps like these were taken (Java applets, activeX, webgpu, outlooks enhanced emails) it was security disaster is not a good sign.

There is some mention of risks in the footnote 3, focusing on privacy, but that's not at all sufficient. And placing it in a footnote is telling on its own.

> Forgiveness starts with an apology.

This is often claimed, but I'm not sure I agree. Why can't I forgive someone who wronged me even if they didn't apologize? Or perhaps even if they don't see that they wronged me.
Managers are the wealthy. Corporate governance is a joke, and shareholders are only nominally the "owners" of companies. They're not making the day-to-day decisions and have only very coarse influence over how corporations operate. Much like the voters' relationship to politicians.

It's a mistake to look at per-firm performance. To a large extent, the wealthy are cooperative rather than competitive with each other and collaborate on class interests. The goal is to protect their collective power. They often know each other personally, went to the same schools, sit on each other's boards of directors, and bail each other out when things go pear shaped.
With its 140 character limit and its desire for "engagement", I always felt that Twitter was optimising for superficiality.

If that’s true, there would be some type of longitudinal evidence.

I suspect that this is like the “no one use Facebook anymore” meme where statistics show otherwise.

Are you working in a technology related field? If so, probably a number of the 70-80% of the people who make less than you do probably think you make too much.
>QE can be thought of as a tool to accelerate the wealth transfer from poor to rich.

This is no true. It’s QE is funded by other rich people who buy bonds. If we do pay off the debt, again it will be rich people paying it off. The top 10% pay 70% of federal taxes.

Also, the megarich don’t lose much when the stock market collapses. Even if they lose 90%, of their wealth, they’ll live comfortably. Meanwhile, millions of working class people will lose their jobs because companies run out of credit to pay them.

I've been talking to a decent number of wealthy people about this subject and sometimes their responses are deafening. I don't think it's malice but rather plain ignorance. It's hard to understand the frustrations of the poor when you live in a fancy house and make tech money.

The current corona virus scare mongering can be considered to be in the same league of witch hunt.
It may not be identical but it has similar underpinnings:

-A seeming know demon: the virus,

- It keeps the peasants (the laymen) too engaged with the fear, and sufficiently distracted to not start revolting against their rulers.
I honestly have no idea what "cancel culture" is.

I've been fired, expelled, shushed, shunned, ghosted, excluded, ignored, plagiarized, mocked, insulted, attacked, divorced, blocked. Publicly and privately.

Daring to point out the emperor is naked is an unforgivable offense.

Receiving criticism generally means you're saying something interesting.

I'd hate to be so boring that I'm not even worth criticizing.

FYI, Socrates was "canceled", and we're still talking about him.

Further, society should "cancel" the trolls, heathens, hate mongers. That's what society is for. Filters are important.

It's not easy to build a high-power narrow-band AM transmitter, let along a broadband one. The issue is the long wavelength makes aerial matching difficult (at 1MHz the wavelength is 300 metres, i.e. speed of light/frequency). AM transmitters for national use generally run 10's to 100's of kilowatts of power [0], and longwave is even higher, e.g. UK Radio 4 is 500 kilowatts.

Pretty unlikely to build a high-power one by accident :)

That's definitely one way of looking at it but when you're a bank with projects in the tens of millions hinging on EmberJS, you'd think you'd be more sensitive to the plight of EmberJS development?

I mean the open source project suddenly being abandoned due to lack of a corporate sponsor would be pretty catastrophic, no?

What struck me the most is that at its heart the bank has these sorts of provisions in its constitution, ie giving back to the community and being in harmony with the environment and being relationship oriented.

It's like the lion not rewarding the mouse in that old fable, due to brand having been subverted by petty bureaucracy and middling management.

Thanks for the thoughtful comment!

> You've essentially redefined that word/phrase to imply that anyone using it is unsympathetic

I don't think I've redefined it. That's how it seems to me and, I guess, others on the left. To those on the right the definition would be necessarily different, I guess "people who pretend to feel sympathy with poor people etc." I just think the people who I've heard it aimed at aren't pretending to have such feelings, thus the definition I gave first is the accurate one. The phrase seems a way to try to mask deficiencies in your own character by accusing others of lying/pretence, consciously or not.

If you go with making your own youtube, then you are seriosly disadvantaged by that.
Secondly, they can buy their disks directly from manufacturer, probably using bidding. So, even their storage costs are much lower, than you can hope.
The technical details from the YouTube video [1]:

- one cassette tape per route

- distance to next milestone encoded in the bleep length on the tape

- controller unit interprets the bleep length

- controller unit reads RPMs from the spinning cable that normally drives the odometer

- controller unit has a pluggable circuit board that contains the wheel specific odometer RPM to distance conversion

- controller unit starts/stops the cassette player at each milestone
