The only solution for this is organized labor activism. At an individual level, everybody wants to be outsourced to but not outsourced from and nobody can prevent this at an individual level.
If your point is that the boyfriend should have gotten a greater punishment, then I wholeheartedly agree. About the boyfriend we can at least say that he had the decency to kill himself. However, I understood you as saying that the Justice system was too harsh on Elizabeth and not that it was insufficiently harsh on her boyfriend.

I don't think I'm looking at it from the "Someone who gets 20 years must deserve it" perspective. In fact, I was predisposed to support her. You referenced her as being mistreated by the Justice System, which I already doubt, and linked to an article describing her the same way and without any detail. It's only when I read the horrific abuse that she allowed a person she knew to be a violent abuser to inflict on her fifteen month old daughter that I changed my mind. I wasn't on the jury and I don't know nearly all the details, but there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with what I do know - a mother who lets her daughter be brutally tortured should be in prison.

As an aside, I also noticed that you write as if a single instance of abuse occurred. The news articles describe it as a pattern of abuse over time. Eventually Elizabeth decided to take the baby to the hospital. It's not like she was out one day, came home and saw her injured child, took her to the hospital, and was blamed for it. Instead, she ignored bruises and wounds on her baby, after leaving that baby in the company of a man who regularly beat her. Eventually she did take the child to the hospital, which is good, but it doesn't exonerate her.
> For example an American Democrat might say "I hate sky/fox news with a passion but I think Google shouldnt be making these decisions"

American Democrat here. I would have said that 10 years ago, but nowadays, Fox News is actively working to dismantle people’s right to vote, committing economic sabotage by spreading anti vaccine propaganda, and enabling people that are actively making the planet uninhabitable.

At some point, this crosses the line from freedom of speech to acts of war. It’s completely reasonable for the US to enlist domestic corporations to fight back against foreign aggression.

If that includes going after Murdoch in Australia, great.

>>Focusing just on worker's wages, when there are billionaire property owners (specifically owners of IP) living around the corner from you, is just ignorant and disingenuous if this really is your argument.

Average incomes within the city are the overwhelming determinant of the demand side of housing supply and demand.

A dozen billionaires are not going to materially affect the availability of housing, even if they all buy huge estates. Average income determines what the vast majority of the city's renters are able to afford to pay for rent.

In any case, San Francisco is not even in the top 10 for number of billionaires among cities:

>>Honestly I don't understand why you use these arguments and sources, they seem to me to be completely incompatible with reality.

I suggest you actually read the article I linked to. It describes what economists at large think of rent control, and what studies on the effects of rent control have found.

>>You keep mentioning rent-control, but I have never said that it's the measure I am for. You do realize rent-control is not the only policy that a city or government can use and enforce right?

I brought up rent control because you wrote the following, which implies cities with rent control have had a positive experience with it:

>>I’d expect the opposite, as you see in countries that have rent and ownership controls.
Isn't that just being incredibly lazy. Surely a reasonably experience person like yourself should be able to read the error message and at least get a rough idea about what the problem is. Then from there explain how you would fix it on the CLI and try to map that onto the GUI. Most Git GUIs map fairly closely to the underlying git model.

Why not just say the truth "I could help you, but it's not my job, so I'm not going to"
Updating software is as old as space systems that had software. Even the Voyager probes could receive software updates and were updated many times. Curiosity famously was launched without code to do the landing sequence, it was sent over the air while Curiosity was in cruise to Mars.

I think what is novel about this satellite is that it has a software-defined radio and a phased array antenna, and this press release is just so dumbed down that it has lost all technical meaning.
It seems to be that in order to support sustainable farming one must decidedly be OK with supporting a less efficient and more expensive system.

Would it be better for the environment if this guy just went out of business and the goods were produced as efficiently as possible on as little land as possible in order to satisfy the demand?

Im curious if anyone has ever studied or modelled what the environmental impact of agriculture would look like if it wasn’t highly mechanized intensive farming and was instead decentralized and sustainable. Would we even be able to feed everyone? Would the land use for agriculture increase?

I could be wrong on this but I remember reading somewhere that the total amount of land used for food production in Europe and North America has actually decreased as things have become more efficient. This seems like a good thing vs using more land less efficiently?
The pendulum swings both ways. Unfortunately, I have seen far to many instances of episodic products that are excessively drawn out and waste my time.
Pseudoscientific is the default state of the mind.

Propaganda research became behavioral economics, advertising, marketing, and various psychology programs, but surely that’s not been used socially to titillate biology and insert desired talking points in that excited state from childhood forward.

It can’t simply be we were easily mesmerized by what are really banal statistics extrapolated from speculating on the movement of political scrip in an era of imperialism that’s now faded. Humans have never succumb to nonsense group think before!

Believing one has transcended their biology is not limited to kooks who think they can live on light alone.
The article specifically mentions competition from New Zealand lamb and talks about food miles. Food miles are not necessarily a good comparison for total carbon footprint.

UK lamb production is very energy intensive.

From the paper's abstract:

This paper assesses, using the same methodology, whether this is the case by comparing NZ production shipped to the UK with a UK source. The study found that due to the different production systems even when shipping was accounted for NZ dairy products used half the energy of their UK counterpart and in the case of lamb a quarter of the energy. In the case of apples the NZ source was 10 per cent more energy efficient. In case of onions whilst NZ used slightly more energy in production the energy cost of shipping was less than the cost of storage in the UK making NZ onions more energy efficient overall.

Wow, I’d never call version control simple. Actually it’s fiendishly hard. Git makes some simplifications (!) to make the problem more tractable.
C is a great example here. If you write a lot of C, you really have to understand pointers very well. And quite a lot else. That makes it a bad tool for many purposes, so most developers do not use it, and fewer use it every year. It's just a bad tool for modern purposes.

The same applies to the git CLI. And really, to git. The right tool for a small group C-using kernel developers 15 years ago may not be the right tool for different people doing different things today. Let's hope it goes the way of C.

Honestly, it sounds unbelievable. I absolutely can believe that people go through life without learning to read. I'm a college teacher and I've met them.

The lengths he went to in college, however, seem so incredible that I am skeptical.

Pretty much. The only problem with this is you'd prevent genuine innovation in print technology, but a requirement that all printers use some open standard (even a novel one published by the manufacturer) would fix the problem well. The universal availability of third party cartridges shows that if you build it, they will come.

...Actually if you don't publish a standard, they figure out how to build it anyway, yet here we are. So as far as I can tell that's not the issue. Though it would at least stop vendors from haunting people with scaremongering about third party cartridges. Clearly there are enough people buying ink from the vendors to make the subsidy model viable. Maybe more standardisation would at least shift this attitude and make more people (e.g. organizational purchasers) see it as a genuine choice as to who to buy from.

I’d love to see a source on that. Can experimental features not go away without notice at any moment?
I get you disagree with the GPs post but “noob” isn’t offensive. What’s offensive is their lack of support for colleagues (which reads like a potential issue with their own ego: where they didnt want to be shown up in an unfamiliar UI). But their post reads exactly the same if you substituted “noob” for “newbie”, “junior”, “inexperience” etc.

What we need to do is get passed this ridiculous mindset some have that not knowing something is a bad thing. We all have to start off somewhere and “noob” is just a common term for describing that. Case in point: I’ll readily post “noob question guys, how do I…?” on Slack to give context that I’m asking a potentially basic question and basically don’t really know what I’m doing. For reference, I am the most senior on my team and yet I have zero issue highlighting stuff I don’t know when asking for help. And that’s exactly the way it should be.

There’s no shame in being new at something. What there should be is shame in wanting to mock newbies and shaming and those who don’t offer up their help to others. Being a noob should be celebrated as someone new joining the team rather than added to our dictionary of inappropriate terms.

You mean "incredulous", and the responses 'addingnumbers gave to the question I raised are in every respect what I was hoping someone's would be - measured, thoughtful, thought-provoking, and elucidatory of a possible chain of events which I had theretofore not considered.

Their behavior here has in every respect exemplified the highest among the reasons why I continue to value participation in HN discussions - sure, I've passed the occasional glib comment about the place betimes, but I know no other place on the public Internet where such worthwhile discussions reliably occur.

I'm glad of the light 'addingnumbers has shed - not, as they also noted, by trying to say what did happen, but by describing something that might have which had not and may never have occurred to me. ('dogma1138, too.)

Of your own participation in this thread I regret I cannot honestly say anything so laudatory.

A couple of easily added aliases to .gitconfig and my CLI can do everything your GUI can do, in a portable way, and much easier and faster IMO.

Nothing to learn or even forget, either, as the CLI is actually the easier part of the job.

So, you do you, nothing wrong with that, but the CLI is here to stay.
I feel similarly, hardly ever print anything, but when I need to print I REALLY need to print.

The frustrating thing is the cartridges are often dried up, the printer needs calibrating, or worst of all, the rubber rollers that feed the paper no longer grip the paper properly and cause serial jams.

I end up printing at fedex/kinkos.

> Where would I, or some other temporary migrant, live if not in someone's house who rented it to me? My owning a home is irrelevant.

Why does the housing need to be supplied by private landlords? There are places that have a lot of social housing, like Sweden. Let the government build and own property, it works well. It also means people from different backgrounds and occupations can all live together, instead of e.g. redlining, which devastates minority communities.

As it stands now only the rich are able to move into cities, with low-wage workers having to commute from far outside the city, which is a pretty disgusting shift if you think about it. Imagine having a crappy cleaning job, cleaning offices at night, and you have to travel hours for your job because you live so far out [1]. It's a reality for more and more people, as the assault on labor intensifies.

Did you RTFA? It's like 20 lines of text, that's exactly what it explains. Any entity with the ability to print money can simply buy a dominating share of the hash power and force all the honest miners to either sell out to them or go out of business.

the network is only global and decentralized to the extent that the miners operate with a profit motive. The government that prints the world's reserve currency can afford to print more money than honest miners can afford to lose. Game over.
> One must also consider whether it is a medium of exchange at any given point in time, if its used as an unit of account, the variable storage/protection/transportation costs, durability against the elements, fungibility, accessibility, liquidity, etc.

Yes, there are many commodities making many tradeoffs as money. Over time, through trade and travel, societies adopted gold as the premier base of money, because of its superiority in the tradeoffs they cared about. Gold was chosen by the market as the best monetary medium.

Nobody chose fiat. Dollar bills originally represented redeemable vouchers for gold stored in a bank, and so while the storage/protection/transportation costs of paper notes is/was superior to carrying gold bars, those vouchers were worthless unless you could reliably redeem them for gold. Those paper notes are worthless if people didn't trust the bank/government issuing them, which is how bank runs started. Eventually the gold peg was removed, and the continuous debasement of dollars has somehow been accepted as feature, not a bug. Every decade unto infinity, dollars will become worth less. This does not work in the long run. We are in an era of great economic productivity thanks to technology, but I fear these gains hide the weaknesses in our monetary systems.
The point of semi-unusable DRMed crap when L1 released keep getting WEB-DLed?

Very likely it's not the Shield now which leaks L1, but an actual key recovery because they get the stream even before it gets watermarked in the secure domain.

My guess, it's Qualcomm's debugging TZ applets. They cannot really revoke keys because they will take down a giant amount of Snapdragon based handsets for which manufacturers don't bother to put a single OTA.

This is also likely why Netflix uses such a silly restrictions as refusing to run on old Android version numbers on some Snapdragon handsets, which are easily root bypassable.

While I emphasize with your feeling on unions, having seen first hand how they operate, your tact is not convincing anyone and is just virtue signaling.

The thing that I never see addressed with unions is what they are and what they do. The easiest way to look at unions is thus:

Unions exist for the explicit purpose of enriching their members(not necessarily all equally), at the expense of all others.

I have two issues with unions:

1. They have been given this deity status as an unassailable good thing.

2. Federal Union laws that force employers to fire the employees they hired to work during the strike, even if they can be reasonably certain that union employees that used violence against property and person during the strike are the ones they have to bring back.

Want to bargain as a group? Sure, more power to you. But either side should have the option of walking away and severing all ties. The union can do this, the employer is held hostage by federal labor law.

>"... 1. Recognise that internal resistance is on your side ..."

I disagree somewhat, and I have a different explanation.

---

Each one of us is born with talents (gifts) and some weaknesses.

If we grow up, and then become adults in the environment that does not discover our talents, and, opposite, emphasises our weaknesses -- then we become:

- unhappy,

- dis-engaged,

- often resort to cheating as a way to 'pad up' our weaknesses,

- often blaim others. Sometimes rightfully so, sometimes not.

The environment in which we grow up -- does not really depend on us. Depends on parents, state of peace, state of economy.

Yes, we have to be adaptable, but when the adoptation requires us to compete in fields, eco-systems that does not emphsize our inborn talents -- we do not do well.

We are not all meant to be technology visionaries, data scientists, lawyers, public speakers, and surgeons.

But a society, an economic system that emphasises one of the above (as an example), is forcing the rest to 'adjust'.

That 'adjustment' - is the friction. But it does not just depend on an individual.

Really, a global solution is the one, that takes advantage of the different talents we have. That should be the purpose of statesman (not career politicians), that offer to dedicate their service to their country (or the world).

And, certainly on a personal level

- honesty,

- work ethic

- rejection of ideologies that justify 'achieve whatever using any means necessary',

- rejection of unfair biases (biases based on inborn characterists that 'lock down person's fate)

Would have to be part of that solution.

Believing that you always have something unique, something specially good, specially powerfull about yourself -- has to be emphrasized, at a personal level.
I will never get a more relevant chance to bring this up, so has anyone heard of Napoleon Hill’s(Think and Grow Rich) other book?

It’s called Outwitting the Devil, where he interviews the devil. He refused to publish it during his lifetime, and his estate also put off publishing it for decades because it contains strongs critiques of the educational system, the government, and the church as being tools of the ‘devil’ to keep the population confused, ignorant, and demoralized from a young age. It was considered too controversial for its time and I found it to be a thought-provoking book, very different from the “here’s a secret to success/power within/what they dont want you to know” genre. Instead of “think positive” it’s “here are all the tricks the ‘Devil’ is using to try to sabotage you.” If you like self-help books its a fun read/listen.
