I have a great solution to that problem: give the people who work money. Crazy, right?

Seriously though: UBI would encourage more working without registration. What you can already see with students where their parents pay their education. Often times they just work on the side "illegally". And a whole lot of other issues that come with UBI. Additional government dependency and so on. Advocates for UBI are like advocates for roundabouts really. If properly planned it could be a non consensual help. But reality does not plan well.
That’s incredible. Think about being in an underground tunnel in a wooden box with open flames being dragged by a train spewing steam and also with open flames inside. Terrifying.

My first exposure to computers of any type was in early 1980. My brother and I visited one of his friends who had an Apple ][ and we played Adventure into the early hours of the morning. I was enthralled.
I followed the directions at https://stuartleeks.com/posts/wsl-ssh-key-forward-to-windows... to get the combination of socat and npiperelay to work for this purpose. I did slightly deviate from his final script by using pgrep instead of the combination of ps and grep to detect if npiperelay was already running.

Edit: These directions are very similar to those linked in the comment this is in reply to and either will work.

Actually Germanys economy is very differently structured than the US. A significantly larger portion the GDP is coming from relatively small companies (called Mittelstand in German). Those companies also often invest very large percentages of their revenue into R&D (typically much more than the big cooperations). For example a significant portion of worldwide advanced manufacturing is powered by relatively small German companies that nobody ever heard about,

I'm glad to hear you are calling for employees to be able to freely form a union and strike (which employees are mostly banned from doing today).
In the free market, should businesses not be able to freely agree to a contract? Most anti-union laws limit the types of contracts private actors are able to voluntarily consent to, which seems less of a "free market."

Having worked in a call center myself at one point, I'd say the primary difference is the directly-customer-facing nature of that work.
When a call comes in (and there are often a large number of simultaneous calls) someone has to be there at their desk to receive it - whereas with yours and my current gigs, the worst that'll happen is some production issue with a reasonable SLA.

The situation with China is going to be the greatest challenge of the 21st century.. Although, when I say China, I mean the CCP, it is unfortunate but most people today equate China with CCP.

I really don't know what is the best solution, and what we as a western community can do to make changes. It seems to me that China won't change until it changes itself from the inside, if it will ever even happen..
Stopping prosecution of non violent crime is one part of the equation. We can't overlook the UBI aspect of the stimulus checks, which could have had an impact on lower property crime.
? Not at all. I'm not quite sure why people on HN think the 1st amendment is such a golden bullet, but it is not. There are lots of exceptions, including threatened retaliation, to what might be permissibly said in the workplace.

If, for instance, as you were hiring people, you told them "we don't hire black people", even if you did hire black people, you would still be opening yourself up to suit, even with freedom of speech.

I floated around grocery stores quite a bit in the early/mid 2000s, working at several locations and various jobs.

There is a big difference between OMS and populist leaders like Maduro/Bolsonaro/Trump.

What OMS said about masks and asymptomatic cases were the best we known about the pandemic at the current time (we still didn't have many studies on how the virus propagated). Once it became clear that masks helps and asymptomatic cases are super spreaders, OMS changed the tone quickly.

Populist leaders say things about remedies that study after study shown that there is no efficacy and they never change their tone because it would mean they're wrong. Instead, they simple jump for the next "miracle" solution.
I agree with your general point that journalists have contributed to the decline of journalism, yet your rant is an unconstructive mix of sweeping generalisation and disregard for underlying systemic issues.

At the end of the day society as a whole agrees how much they value independent journalism and if no consensus is found (or an existing consensus erodes), independent journalism will slowly separate from the main stream.

And while you can observe this progression in most Western democracies, the US sticks out. So the question becomes: Does the US have particularly bad journalists - or - are there US specific factors that fuel the decline of independent journalism in the US?
As a counterpoint, in my unionized school district, both options were quite popular and you didn't need to pay the full dues, only like 70%.

I’ve worked in journalism for 25+ years and been employed by three of the four major media companies.

Mainstream media is not necessarily left or right; it is corporate. Media bends to the demographics that can bring in revenue.

If it wasn’t apparent before 2016, that election stripped any façade of journalism being separated from the business of media companies. Everyone benefitted from Trump’s antics and they rode stories about them all the way to the bank.*

You would think only “right-wing” media would have benefitted from the Trump campaigns and presidency, but the death of the fairness doctrine made it easier for these media companies to target siloed demographics — left and right — and feed off them.

There was also a seismic shift in newsroom mentality when media companies downsized and went with cheaper, inexperienced journalists and editors. A great deal of the industrial knowledge accumulated by veterans was never appropriately passed on to the new generation.

Also: Too many journalist see themselves as personalities and brands because of the potential financial benefit outside of the newsroom. This has been exacerbated by social media influencer culture. It is hard to be impartial when you insert yourself into the story.

That said, there are good journalists out there who are not looking to do anything other than report on interesting and important matters. Unfortunately in the current media landscape, it can be very tough to filter signal from all the noise.

Yes, after months of grooming, even before the election was conducted.

If people knew there were problems beforehand, why did the people in charge fail to do preventative measures?

Merits of that leadership: Failing to improve the election process, even attempting sabotaging Postal Services, and then crying crocodile tears after grooming millions to a false attack.

You are doing an unfair comparing of c/c++ with the availability of 3rd party libraries. There is just nothing wrong with c/c++. But you cant press alt+enter to get a third party library. And this is the only disadvantage for someone that is able to do c or c++.

C, CAN be a bleading edge. Depends on who is using it., based on a simple fact that there is nothing you cant do.

Except for the amount of money the companies need to pay for skilled c/c++ developer against the <name your poison> developer.

I think that in contrast of common belief, the difference in languages has nothing to do with benchmarks. But it has everything to do with price/performance. And performance is not important today (`I'll just start another "cloud" instance whatever the cost`).

So we are getting to the price. 10 monkeys for the price of one "real" developer. Why? I was reluctant to use java/c# software due to a fact that it was mostly a crap (and still is). Now I am forced to use it as there are no alternatives. The software is just another thing where the quality is non relevant to the earning. So we eat shit.
So if the FBI knew about the threat, why weren't more precautions in place against rioting?
You're making an assumption that RMS is the only person who can be a champion of free software.

That's incorrect, there are many people who can and do vigorously support free software but because of RMS they are not able to get a seat at the table (or don't want it, because of RMS's well-known bad behavior).

Remove one person and you open the door to many other equally or more capable people.

The JVM is incidental for most Clojure projects I think.
This is provably false. I live in an area where a lot of people are struggling because of Covid-related lockdown, and there are a number of small charities coordinating food and other donations.

None of them are publicity machines, except in a very minor informational sense, and all are effective locally.

That stops being true above a certain size - specifically when a charity adopts the tropes of corporate culture and starts spending more time on "messaging" and "engagement" than delivery.

Inexplicably this seems to coincide with a hugely overpaid CEO and managerial staff.

I'm sure someone like Bill Gates can afford to compile a global index of tiny all-volunteer charities and donate significant sums to them.

But that kind of help won't have his name on it. It's not obvious it even interests him and his fellow billionaires.
Even public prisons are primarily run and populates through the formiddable lobbying power of police and prison guard unions. Their influence is far more insidiuous than that of the comparably small for-profit prison industry.

Also an opportunity to question your union stance.
> This is suggesting the government should treat unions preferentially, not equitably.

Equity is in the eye of the beholder. I don't see how this law is treating unions preferentially, and am interested in how you distinguish it with the aforementioned minority shareholder protections.
Why ask a rhetorical question? It’s pompous as all hell and makes your point impossible to truly parse.

No, I don’t think the above poster this Bernie Madoff shouldn’t have gone to jail.....now what’s your point again? Where are we? Oh right, something like Bernie didn’t cause harm, therefore he would also be released in your little plan, hmmm?

Like what’s the point of such smartassery. Financial harm isn’t some new concept. “He hurt my money”.

Is there another argument you want fenangled out of some smartass comment next? At least make a claim like, “nonviolence is hard to prove” or _anything_

Not entirely wrong, but Canada for example has condo(minium) boards where a development wasn't done as a freehold.

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condominium

Though a "condo" is technically a legal structure, in Canada in generally refers to a self-owned 'apartment' with-in a tower of some height. Colloquially 'townhouses' are house-looking structures in a common development.

Fully- or semi-detached generally means a freehold property without any links to any kind of other legal entity (besides the municipality). 'Semi' means that there is a shared wall between two structures, but they are legally independent lots.
Here’s a thought experiment.

Imagine a government uses tax payer money to install a bench in the park. This bench has a distinguished businessman’s name brazened on the front of it, and this bench is poorly placed and no one sits in it, providing no utility to society. In this example, the public has every right to be disgruntled, they can call their representatives, media organizations etc., or just talk about the stupidity and incompetence of their government and vote new, equally incompetent, people in their place instead. When a government does something like this, it’s not working right.

Imagine the park is owned by a private nonprofit. The business man donates money to the nonprofit to install the bench, the business man gets a dollar for dollar tax deduction on the bench, and the nonprofit rewards him by having his name put on the bench. No one uses the bench and it provides no utility.

In either case, the real results for society is the same. The only difference is that for the nonprofit case the system works the way it’s supposed to.

In real life what you get is that moneyed elites get a boost in status from their donations. How can you demand demand good behavior from people with no accountability?

3. Basically rehash of Zenz Jamestown hit piece, the 500K was based off CCP press releases of rural transfer programs. Literally misconstruing official CCP media bragging about poverty alleviation into coerced labour which internet then misconstrues as unpaid slave labour. Actual piece itself doesn't have any credible evidence of forced labour other than Zenz thinks there's coersion because some folks got paid less than they were promised.

No. Old houses are not distributed on average, the point I was making is it’s a perfectly reasonable thing to say that a 250 year old house is the youngest on a specific street. Could easily be true, common even.
