>That's because most conservative politics is fundamentally opposed to the rights of any given minority group, pretty much via definition.

This is a common misconception of conservative views toward minority groups. I find it much more common that conservatives are totally down with the rights, but annoyed or put off by strong activism among minority groups; the preachy nature of advertising, comedy, and other entertainment; and the retaliation against differing views, whether that be job losses, deplatforming, or any other far-reaching (read: disproportionate) social ramifications.

What conservatives and those who want to have a nuanced discussion around identity are finding difficult is the idea that the previously harsh nature of church life with regards to "sin" and rejection by a religious body have now been championed by identity activists who are now doing the same thing, only in a secular fashion -- going as far as calling otherwise benign expressions and statements of differing views "hateful" when they really aren't, and calling for the social/career equivalent of burning the witch at the stake -- alongside it being widely popular and mainstream to criticize speech that barely comes close to offending anyone with an ever-changing standard driving acceptable speech.

Example: "Charge That “Soap Dispensers” Prove “Systemic Racism” Reflects a Deeper, Darker Problem"

Hence the common narrative in conservative circles being: "powerful people are telling you how to feel on behalf of minority groups with little to no consent or representation of the minority groups themselves", true or not.

Example: an all-white leadership at Nextdoor adds racism warnings before users post content, not considering that a Person of Color could be posting "all lives matter" and imposing that they should be offended by what they themselves post (fact: Black conservatives exist in DROVES and strongly oppose BLM):

There are radical pockets of people in almost every subculture, but it is difficult to believe that minority groups are facing as many challenges as non-minorities say there are (that's key!) when each minority group is enthusiastically supported by the very most powerful government and private institutions. This is especially true, now that it has become commonplace, popular, and acceptable in public (government) settings and entertainment to be Anti-White, which is patently racist.

With that much support from the most powerful among us, what else is left? Some on the Left actively call for education camps and even genocide against conservatives. This cannot be proven differently.
Or resigned to the massive power of lobbyists.
> spoken like someone who has never actually been poor

It's not even just that. It is spoken like someone who has not even been around poor people.

Class segregation is a much more serious issue than simply class distinction. I wonder if it is a growing problem in society. Because if so, it will not end well as it never has historically.

If you grew up upper middle class or wealthy and you have not had multiple friends on much lower financial tiers than you then you are absolutely out of touch. It is not possible to be aware of the (mostly minor but not insignificant) differences in people's lives by simply reading a book, watching a documentary, listening to a TED talk, or "being an activist".
I struggle in meetings, always have. Ive found i have to slow people down in meetings and have them repeat themselves a lot, and I will repeat back to them what they are saying because I easily miss a lot.

I keep a list of tasks in a notebook and take the time to break them down and make sure I check them off.

I take a nap when I need one, take a break occasionally. Keeo the task ritual going. I always get my work done on time.

Where exactly do you live that you need to go more than 100, 150 miles one way? Even in the moderate back ass of nowhere, you're probably not more than 20 or 30 miles to necessities (groceries, etc), right? Either way, this situation (20-30 miles from a grocery store) certainly wouldn't be a considered "HCOL, ..., major metro area," right? I just can't compute this.
The perhaps non-intuitive answer is - everything that reduces the need for HVAC. I'd be looking at things like passive solar design so windows are shaded in summer but let sunlight in for heat in winter. Very good insulation and building sealing. Double glazing (possibly triple if you're in a very cold climate). Thermal mass in the right places for temperature stablity.

On the HVAC side, you want a system with a high CoP and I'd probably be looking at some form of energy recovery on the ventilation side.
The invisible fee is paid by the merchant, not the consumer. And fees aren't 4%, they are generally 1.3% to 3.5%. With higher fees for American Express, and merchant types with higher fraud rates. (American Express also offers greater rewards to consumers...)

In the end, aside from the complicated consumer reward part, the amount that the credit card companies get isn't that different from the European system.
Can you be more specific? What specific thing breaks? Screen readers?

I see this brought up quite a bit, and I don't really see the issue. They are offering their graduates jobs, so why should these jobs not count just like any other jobs?
But a trip of couple of hundred miles should not be an issue.

If you're driving a 240 mi round trip, at the half way point you will be taking time away from the car on whatever business brought you there in the first place.

In that time your car will be sitting idle and it can be topping up ready for the return trip.

Tesla has already lost marketshare in almost every market so they won't be bigger than Ford in 2 years. They will likely lose their regulatory credits some time this year because VW, Audi, Porsche and Ford have strong offerings.
I’ve seen different projects that aspire to this, but it may be the most complete. The rationale is simple: run workloads that can survive a public cloud failure, or local workloads that can failover to public clouds. Kubernetes promises to avoid vendor lock-in but this facilitates a level of resilience that could only otherwise happen with some hardcore network configuration and usually still accepting some single point of failure.
I believe the mileage should be higher because most of us spend time as passengers in cars too.

If you don't like the people in a company, don't take a job there. Astounding to me that it is controversial that people who are hired to do a job should be spending their time doing the job they are paid to do instead of debating with other employees about what their employers should be doing. I don't see anyone suggesting that employees can't contact HR, or write letters to those whose actual job it is to making hiring decisions, or have discussions with the coworkers on their own time. If you are a shareholder, and you want to have input on how the company is run, there are numerous avenues to do so. The sense of entitlement is crazy.

It can still be a major problem in a supposedly "free" society if there is a culture of punishing people for their thoughts. For one thing, it makes democracy pointless.

New Millennium Athletics creates the shirt that does it all
New Millennium Athletics has developed a high-performance polo with an exceptional tailored fit that integrates function, modern design, versatility and sustainability.

We decided to create our product to address the lack of sustainable athletic apparel options for men and the need for a modern update on the traditional polo.

Most polo shirts are either boxy or slim fit, which isn't flattering or functional for men. Our tailored fit polo incorporates high-performance and sustainable fabric along with tailoring techniques traditionally reserved for dress shirts with a focus on function, modern design and versatility.
How much does being a woman affect your ability to engineer?

Should a woman only be hired because they're a woman, even if they're a poor engineer? That seems way more sexist than the alternative.
I doubt it. Who would seek bankruptcy for 17% of their salary? And it also make Lambds FAR more unattractive.

This battery waste problem has an epistemological status similar to that of dowsing and witchcraft.

Right now there are both articles about how lithium mining is terrible and expensive (https://www.wired.co.uk/article/lithium-batteries-environmen... "The spiralling environmental cost of our lithium battery addiction"†) and articles like this one about how we're producing a massive waste stream containing high concentrations of valuable metals like lithium, cobalt, and manganese. (A 2600-mAh 18650 cell contains about 800 mg of lithium, and https://lygte-info.dk/review/batteries2012/Aosibo%20IMR18650... says it weighs 45 g, so it's 1.78% lithium by weight, 35 times as concentrated as the brine. At US$13k/tonne that's about 1¢ of lithium per battery.)

People throwing out valuable metals while other people are spending a lot of money to recover those same valuable metals from highly diluted deposits? This sounds like a case for... capitalism!

(This is completely different from the old battery waste problem, where mercury was included in disposable battery electrodes in order to stabilize the battery chemistry, which is a serious toxicity hazard and a real pain in the ass to separate out. That's never been the case with lithium batteries and has even been eliminated from almost all disposable batteries now.)

As pointed out in https://xkcd.com/808/, if dowsing could tell you what was under the ground, companies would be using it to make a killing in oil prospecting. If casting hexes on your enemies worked, companies would be using it to make a killing in... killing. Military contracting. (Actually, probably military leaders would.) And, when there's a significant waste stream of lithium batteries available, companies are going to make a killing by buying up these used lithium batteries for 10¢/kg and extracting 23¢/kg of lithium from them.

Until then, it's not a problem.

Unless somehow modern capitalism is failing to be ruthlessly profit-focused enough.

______

† The Wired article says "500,000 gallons [of water] per tonne of lithium", which, in non-historical-re-enactment units, is 1.9 million liters per tonne, but probably more accurately 2 million liters. That puts the lithium content of the brine at 0.05%.
What "authoritative sources debunked it nearly in realtime"? If these sources were authoritative, why did the corporate media & the US government (e.g. State Dept) beat the drums of regime change? Why did we go to war? It sounds like the "authoritative sources" were all in on the war.

You can say that there were "contradictory reports", but in shaping public opinion, what matters is what is shown & the narrative presented to the public. These "contradictory reports" you mentioned were buried under enormous heaps of propaganda. What is to stop the "authors" of the "authoritative sources" from burying the "contradictory reports" on contemporary issues?

In short, it's about power. Whoever has the power determines the narrative coming from the "authoritative sources". Whoever has the power is incentivized to further their own interests to maintain their power. The "author's" narrative, under the pretense of truth & whatever else justifies the authority, sole purpose is to shape public opinion to further strengthen the "author's" hold on power.
When using reddit, you need to stay away from the default subs. They are a timesink and repetitive, and because of the volume of users, the comments all start looking the same. People who were introduced through the mobile app usually make a lot of use of them.

This one's odd to me, because I thought the point of non-cash benefits was that it was much cheaper than giving out cash because the employer has more bargaining power than you.

This is called a sale and happens all the time in consumer spending. It is a well known phenomenon that many people (not all) will wait to purchase when they have more purchasing power. But it is also well known that a subset of the population will not wait.

I am not sure how you perceive your arguments as being a rigorous support of your position or a rigorous critique against the opposing position. It is truly mysterious.
That's nice for heat, but thermal mass means that air conditioning is most efficient when it can get the whole room to equilibrium and then shut off. Like a car coasting going down a hill.
When we purchased our 2019 E-tron early last year and the Audi dealership was also openly hostile about the sale. They did everything to try to put us into a different (gas) car. Manufacturers would be well served to sell their Evs directly.
I was with you until the last sentence. I write Rust code at scale, with schedule and performance constraints. I’ve literally never had to use the word unsafe in my code.

If you can’t figure out how to do it without fucking up the borrow checker, that’s because you can’t figure it out, and you need to learn how to do your job. You’re never “forced” to hack anything.

There's a wide range between "burn out" and "had to do something I didn't want to at work today", just like there's a wide range between "my manager's bugging me every 30 seconds on slack" and "why can't I just write the whole feature from my one-sentence description heads-down for 3 weeks and then put up 5k lines at once for code review?" A lot of otherwise-competent developers will do the latter if you don't force them otherwise. (Way more common even among developers skilled at time management: Getting caught up in a bug for X days and not asking for help.)

One view is of course that these are not "good developers" and you should not hire them or work with them. Two better views are that these are developers that need to learn a new skill to be even more effective and this will take time and someone pushing to actively learn it; or that even if they don't ever learn it, they can still be effective at their job when supported by a more active manager. (And a critical piece of advice for managers - that doesn't mean you need to be more active for everyone else on the team at the same time.)

I have worked on teams closer to as you have described, but I would say that's on a separate axis from functional/dysfunctional - it's very easy to get a team of insular divas - or even sustainable/non-sustainable - developers can build the perfect thing on schedule which no one will want to pay for, which a heavier-handed product-focused manager might have prevented.

I do think people who can self-organize are also very good at self-selecting into similar groups. This can result in the illusion that developers are much more effective at this than they believe. Two decades of free money and easy job-hopping resulting in no consequences for bad decisions also helps maintain that illusion - for bad managers also.
Yes. Can burn. Need an approved controlled hazardous waste incinerator. Need a temperature of at least 1850°C ! There are facilities, search on EPA. But that's a huge amount of barrels down there. And still counting. And it is extremely deep. Best to leave it there, don't disturb, until a complete plan in place. Even then , complete burial is likely a valid solution . Unfortunately.
My experience as a student in a US public school a dozen or so years ago was that it functioned as a borderline fascist institution, to an extent that I think would be quite surprising to the rest of the world. Every day began with the Pledge of Allegiance recited in the classroom, facing the US flag, hand on chest. Permission was required to use the restroom during class. Class changes were anounced by automated bells in the hallway, at which time students stampede to their next class within 6 minutes, including any necessary pit stops, such as a restroom break. This is high school, where students typically attend until 18.

Schools loom so large in students' lives; and when school attendance is compulsory for all, and public school the only option for many; and when these institutions so easily sacrifice respect for individuality in favor of keeping order inexpensively; I am all for ensuring students can enjoy their full speach rights when they come home at the end of the day.

I’m ok with schools “punishing” people for breaking social norms, but the punishment should be proportional - detention, extra homework, public shaming, etc.

But expulsion is something that will affect the person for the rest of their life. There should be significant burden of proof before such an action can be taken, and we already have a system (courts) to deal with that.

> Money is not wealth. Money is a tool.

Can you please stop making up your own economics? A currency is an asset. End. Of. Story.

Deflation is a directional property of an exchange rate between a pair of assets.

By "used" you mean traded. And yes trade increasing (of which consumer spending is a kind of trading) is a good thing. You only get that with volatility. This can be created through an inflation but dually it is also created through deflation.

There is nothing wrong or immoral about a particular asset going up or down in price relative to another asset.

This unscientific stance of considering all deflation as immoral is based on absolutely nothing except emotional propaganda.

You have provided exactly zero proofs verifying that any and all deflation in a currency is a bad thing. And you will never be able to provide such a "proof" because it does not exist.

Let's see if you are even capable of constructing a proper intellectual retort. My doubts run high.
