Where are you getting that number from?

>...A fast-food restaurant could typically run labor costs around 25% while a full service restaurant could run about 30-40% of revenue depending on how up scale the bar or restaurant is and the demand needed.

>... you want a hamburger to cost $50?!?!

No one is claiming that proposed higher minimum wages would cause hamburgers to cost $50 - you don't need to use a hyperbolic straw man. But even before the pandemic, the minimum wage increases that went into affect in 2020 have had some effects on restaurants:

>... A study by Harri revealed that a whopping 71% of restaurants have responded to the recent minimum wage increases by raising menu prices.
In addition to price increases (71%), reduced employee hours (64%) and job eliminations (43%) were the most common reactions to wage inflation.

In the case of blasphemy, many think that religious people are inferior. I’ve talked with many athiests who think all theists are stupid. And I’ve talked with members of Religion X who think members of Religion Y are inferior.

So from a world view perspective, someone saying “Jesus Christ, you’re an idiot” would be part of an inferior perspective on people who think that blasphemy shouldn’t be done.

I think this is different from profanity, but I’ve worked with people who thought use of the “F word” was so offensive they would feel uncomfortable working with people who say such things.

I think it comes down to those views as not being reasonable, but everyone agreeing that being offended by racial slurs as being reasonable. So it’s unreasonable to ever use hate speech, but it’s reasonable to use blasphemy and profanity.

I think they copied DuckDuckGo's bangs.

It's nowhere in the documentation, and the UI never indicates it, but bang searches (like `!stackoverflow parse html with regex`) work in Brave Search exactly as they do in DuckDuckGo.

Preliminary testing of mine suggests that they just copied DuckDuckGo's list directly–I tried a few obscure ones from DDG, like `!ldss` or `!uib`, and they work in Brave Search.

> I'm not sure it's feasible to meaningfully regulate/legislate what a "healthy bank account" is for such a company.

I'm not sure it is either, the law is a blunt tool and it's not always possible to legislate things like "be ethical".

One potential way to do legislate this is to require that plaintiffs place funds in escrow pending the outcome of the case, to pay for the other sides fees if they lose. Occasionally courts will already order this under current law. I'm not going to generally advocate for that as a good idea though, I think it probably has a lot of side effects and I haven't put enough thought into it to be sure it is a good idea.

> But what are you doing with those patents, then? As much as we both consider them to be a bad idea, patents are supposed to be a vehicle to promote tangible advancements in the field, to encourage development and manufacturing. If you don't produce anything but just stop anybody else from doing that, or just collect rent by granting out permissions, you are not using patents "correctly".

Theoretically, it was the act of inventing that occurred prior to the award of the patent that the patent is supposed to be rewarding. The reward is precisely the ability to extract rent from people who use the invention (whether by making it and selling devices at a premium, or licensing the patent).

You see this mechanism actually function in pharmaceuticals for instance, because patents are so valuable there are companies that pour resources into inventing new drugs that they can patent. (I have other issues with patents in this industry, I wrote about them elsewhere in this comment thread, but the reward mechanism really does motivate useful work here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27587034)

> As well as forced socializing with team mates.

One of these things is not like the other...

I can tolerate the occasional "mandatory fun" corporate event, but only within reason (e.g. I have kids, so don't give me grief for leaving early).

And I think the entire "work hard play hard" office culture, where you're expected to do happy hour everyday and build your social life around co-workers in order to prove you're a teammate, is ageist and absolutely toxic.

To be blunt, if you have to FORCE people to socialize with you, then maybe you need some self-reflection on why that's necessary.

I've been burnt out bad before and a week isn't enough.

IMHO, with burnout, a week off feels like taking just one breath. What a week does though is let the workers reconsider their situation. Is the burnout worth it? Companies ultimately don't care if you die tomorrow. We are all replaceable to them in the end.

Well that is a much softer point than the one I was responding to which called the age related fertility decline “monumental” in support of the implied conclusion that it is somehow imperative for otherwise healthy women to have children by their 30s.

Regarding your anecdote I do not see its relevance to a discussion of population statistics. People can be infertile because they were paralyzed in a car accident but that doesn’t mean the original claim wasn’t overstated and now walked back.

Regardless, I think narrowing in this specifically on reproductive biology of women in the context of who you date and how you think about relationships is a recipe for failure. Not only does it have somewhat creepy bio-essentialist connotations, but socioeconomic factors and healthcare access also have huge impacts on the health and success of any given pregnancy and childhood/life.

In short, "I have to date right now because I'm 30 and my hypothetical childbearing vessels are becoming less optimal" is an unhealthy and probably incorrect attitude.
It's really a shame what happened to the possibilities for end-user programming/scripting at the OS level. The landscape today is quite dreary. Ask a regular person to "make a button" in their computing environment and they can't, because usually their only choice is to learn a full-fledged language and development environment. And this is in a situation where users make prodigious use of buttons in their daily lives.

All food allergies can work like this, as do with other immune malfunctions like celiac disease. Having the allergies/autoimmune sensitivity from birth is not as common as developing them later on. It can happen at any time in life! Most people tolerate the allergen for some period of time, and then their immune system’s response changes for reasons unknown.

I have allergies to shellfish and tree nuts (plus celiac disease - gluten) diagnosed/developed later in life, along with oral allergy syndrome which sometimes causes a painful reaction to a wide range of foods, but only sometimes (depends on immune state). While I’ve never had an anaphylactic reaction, my allergist prescribed an EpiPen, saying the reactions often increase in severity suddenly with no warning.

My biggest gripe with Rails is the magic it has. It's amazing for small projects but once you reach a certain size for the codebase, things go haywire and there's nothing that stops one from writing atrocious code (I've seen that happen a lot).

The platform involves no compilation, and if you ship the code without tests (which is more often the case unfortunately), things are going to crap out only in Production. Not just that, development also becomes slow because of increasing codebase size, engineers start to get confused and run in circles when trying to find what came from where.

From this end user's perspective, Google Chat is functionally no different than ICQ or MSN Messenger were 20 years ago. Notifications show up on my phone screen instead of my windows 95 screen. And now we call them emojis and there are more of them. And Google chat has more lag (~1400ms) when I open a chat window from my contacts list. All while the functionality of getting some text from myself to my friends has stayed identical (actually decreased - I can't use custom fonts/bold/etc on the modern version)

Tick saliva is meant to trick your body into not identifying it as a foreign object sucking your blood. So saliva, alpha-gal, and who knows what else is injected during the tick's feeding and that mixture is different than just eating food that when breaks down in digestion is turned into alpha gal.

It originates in a different place of your body (not from your gut) and has different components.

That's about the simplest I can explain the difference.

I frankly think that alternative syntaxes for the same languages ought to be a thing. Case in point: OCaml and Reason.

I can imagine a curly-braced syntax for Dhall (BTW Haskell does have curly-braced syntax when you need it), curly-braced syntax for Python, etc. Indent-based syntax for HTML was implemented (but I forgot the name).

Also, RTL syntax and Arabic / Hebrew keywords for languages have also been implemented; this must be a huge help to those whose native writhing systems are RTL. Try writing your code right-indented and with all expressions backwards.

Yes. By the time the article is released, the price has swung to the other direction. That's how volatile the crypto markets are. The smart money is in the chart patterns and the internal crypto news that gives the clues.

The crypto fanatics and the "to the m0on" crowd are still quiet today because they are still hodling at >$55k - $60k and are begging Elon Musk and friends to rocket their favourite shitcoin to the moon via Twitter.

This is why when the whole cryptocurrency market crashed earlier, they were not screaming for the moon anymore, they were baghodling for dear life (again).

Almost all of these cryptocurrencies have been down since January and it hasn't recovered to those higher levels ever since.

...Outrage --> Hate --> Gratification --> Outrage --> Hate...

Step 1. Outrage: Strike the audience with some gross injustice - true or not - it's always useful to exaggerate. Make sure to use an echo chamber so no one can diffuse the emotion with a different perspective.

Step 2. Hate: Define a target. Demonize this target to create an emotional investment by the reader. Pile on ancillary "facts" to give the illusion of rigor. Truth is irrelevant as few will research independently.

Step 3. Follow up with some form of "justice" (usually better to do this at a later update). It doesn't matter if the subject was really hurt, as long as you can make it appear that the "bad guys" actually won in some way.

It's a good question, which has been extensively studied over the last few decades in the medical context. The industry phrase would be "Patient Reported Outcomes" if you'd like to explore further.

After many papers and lots of clinical trials, it's widely accepted in the scientific community that the answers to both of your questions are "yes". E.g. see this FDA paper[1].

Of course, it's possible to design your questionnaire badly and there's an art to this, so it's right to be skeptical/cautious about putting this into practice. But you seem to be getting at a more fundamental epistemic question about whether the approach is possible even in principle, which has been thoroughly investigated.
