I was about to write "The Problem we both have is mislabeling" but then i realized that we dont have the same problem.

From my perspective, conservatives/rights often stand out with blatant and harmful falsehoods. Even in your last post is a central self contradiction.

>movements that get grouped under "woke" self-identify with vacuously positive labels that can't be negated

>If I go around telling people "anti-racism is bad", they're going to think I mean "racism is good"

Looks like your "anti-racism is bad" statement is not meant to be negated. I think, what you meant is "racism is bad but what you are doing is too", which, from my perspective, is not equivalent to "anti-racism is bad". Your mistake here is, that you use their "racism"-label and invert it, to make it suit you. By doing so, you reduce the conversation to labels and discard similarities between you (which is actually the most harmful part).

A slight difference in phrasing is deciding if i agree or disagree with you. Is it my fault or yours?
>I believe in democratic societies where if a majority feels something is dangerous, they have a right to make policy around that issue.

So it would be acceptable for those same religious people to stop females from getting the same sort of education males receive? The damage done to others by such actions has to be taken into account.

they mentioned that they need to hire 2 people. so that's a pretty low gross for that. and the expense of running the servers and all that is not included there so net was probably wildly insufficient for that kind of newhire. I'd think spending some money on marketing would have been more prudent.

I'm not happy paying scalpers, but I WILL pay a Discogs merchant to sell me specific region-locked media (for example, Japan-only releases which often feature special remasters, or often bonus tracks and extra media). The cost of buying from them is often the same or slightly above paying through the real site (plus translation headaches), and cost of a reshipper.

Let us imagine that starting tomorrow every single American is granted infinite endless and free access to anything available at any restaurant or grocery store or other food service. Do you think that in 10 years the obesity epidemic would be: better, same, worse?

I have trouble imagining that it would be better. Look at people who come into access with large sums of money for reasons outside primarily mental achievement - athletes after leaving pro sports, musicians after they stop performing, actors after they stop acting, lottery winners, and so on. Some quick searching turned up articles like this [1]:

"The researchers found that the athletes' weight held steady for over 100 years, with the majority of them weighing in at what is considered "normal," -- i.e., with a body mass index (BMI) between 18.5 and 24.9. However, around 1991 the average player's BMI began to rise, and over the last 25 years nearly 80 percent of players fall into the overweight or obese category with a BMI above 25. "

There's a strong correlation between socioeconomic status and obesity, but that doesn't mean it's causal. Obesity is primarily driven by a lack of impulse control. If you force yourself not to over-eat, you could live off of even McDonalds without becoming obese.

> And sincerely, how do you propose that they be stopped from spreading as quickly based on your criteria or correct spread?

Isn't it obvious? I carefully referred to a very specific thing when I joined this thread. You seem to be very eager to force a tired kind of binary free speech vs. totalitarian censorship discussion that I believe you've consistently misread me.
The even more absurd theory in this style I've come across was a crudely designed website asserting that humanity came into existence in the 16th century, immediately invented the printing press, and then a group of monks sat down and produced the entire historical written record in a couple of decades for unclear but presumably nefarious reasons.
Existing contracts don't magically change just because the government changes how the system of taxation works. I'm not saying it's impossible to have a fair system of mortgages with LVT. I'm saying there are a lot of existing mortgages with specific terms already outlined and no legal basis for changing them. Those mortgages will suddenly be far larger than the new value of the property underlying them. Chances are the homeowners will mostly vacate the property instead of paying those mortgages off and the mortgage holder will then sell the property for a small fraction of the mortgage.

In this system, the homeowner loses any value they had accumulated in their house and the mortgage holder loses a large portion of the mortgage. This is what I'm saying the problem is.
> I also believe in constitutional republics where we have overriding laws which protect minorities

I addressed that already.

> The damage done to others by such actions has to be taken into account.

This is something said but not done: look at how the male minority is treated in education, where the female majority speaks about equality while engaging in institutional sexism against the minority.

If Democrats want me to believe they are genuine in those principles, they should apply them consistently.
I must be younger than you. Have always thought 'email' just looks and feels better... but you make good points!

Maybe it has something to do with frequency of use? "email"/"e-mail" must be used much more (and in more contexts - informal, formal, verbal, professional...) than the other examples you gave, so perhaps over time it was "slangified" and the hyphen dropped?
You literally don't know that - the only evidence you have is articles saying that some of the people in the control groups opted to get the vaccine. And "they" didn't nuke their control groups -- you're implying this was something the pharma companies did, not something patients decided to do.

"The control groups were nuked" is something you could claim, which is still overblown because you have no idea how many people actually chose to be vaccinated vs. not.
>"Keep donating or we'll punish you" is an interesting stance.

So taxes but for entities you can't put in a cage or screw over at will?

The only reason it's not formalized with all sorts of rules and process like taxes is because "entities you can't put in a cage of screw over at will" is a short enough list to be handled on a case by case basis.

> https://www.cst.ch/en/what-is-cst/ makes it sound as if they're trying to build small-diameter tunnels like the Boring Company, but using the strengths of the format much more cleverly.

This is ancient technology, literally over a century old.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Post_Office_Railway

No need to name-drop the Boring Company, as it's just a marketing company who bought a COTS tunneler.

Nothing that this company presented was novel. The critical aspect of putting together an railway network through tunnels is a) it's collosal construction and maintenance costs, b) property rights.

The numbers of putting together a tunnel network hardly add up, and ultimately projects fail because there is no way to make the numbers work unless you expect to fleece local and central governments.

It's also quite strange that CST's marketing brochure does not mention at all two of the main solutions to p2p logistics in urban environment: hub and spoke model with the last mile delivered with small electric cars/scooters/bicycles (Amazon already employs this heavily), and drones.
> These 4GL database/programming products seemed poised to succeed in the web era.

Access pretty much murdered them all right before they really had a chance, but Access (while it eventually got web-ish features) wasn't Microsoft’s strategic focus for web.

Simultaneously, a host of new languages and frameworks with much easier on-ramps than those 4GLs were defined against earlier erupted, and communities leveraged their open source nature to rapidly build out ecosystems far better than any of the proprietary 4GLs, so the 4GLs lost most of their original market and had a kind of competition thet weren't prepared to deal with pivoting to the web market.
The advantage of storing in FLAC though is that if you do want to encode to a more lossy format later you are not going to make the file worse than if you were to originally go from say .wav to mp3. Or if you wanted to manipulate the file later for use in a movie or something. Given that tons of players do FLAC these days and storage is relatively cheap I don't really see any advantage to using AAC.
Short links are useful for when you want a URL that you can share but change where it goes in the future.

Short link services will also let you redirect to different destinations based on rules. So you could split traffic 50/50, you could send European users to a different URL, etc.

Another valuable service is that they you let track clicks without having to add tracking code to the destination page, which means you don't have to modify the destination or even own it.

It's not really about link shortening, it's about dynamic redirects and tracking.

You could imagine a site having a URL for a game sale like "shortlink.com/gamesale" and right now a user in London would get sent to "gamestore.com/european-version-of-sale-page?tracking_param=may-2022"
You can't push it out in a single news blurb. But if it were covered as some math/physics/chemistry sections building on each other in secondary education it should be manageable.

It's bad when the power imbalance favours foreigners over locals.

There's nothing bad with Americans coming here, I love them, but there's a particular kind of people that don't integrate and think that having much more money than the average puts them in charge.

I've made some example about tech workers from USA because they are the larger and richer group I know of and it's crystal clear that most of them aren't here to make the city better or become citizens.

Also they are the ones who send their kids to "study abroad", but here you can drink when you are 16 or older, you can imagine what happens when you put young people with a lot of money in their pickets in a place where the rules of their country do not apply and the police is friendly (meaning they usually do not carry guns with them and don't arrest you for being drunk).

But it's not only them, of course and I'm sorry if I made it look like that.

I was just about to upvote you until I got to the part where you start trashing FOSS users as unwilling to pay for software. This is a long-time lie of the Linux-hating Win-Troll crowd, since at least the Steve Ballmer days of Microsoft, and patently bullshit. I've personally paid for more (FOSS and closed-source) software since switching to using mostly FOSS software than during my many years as a proprietary software and MS Windows user, and I'm not alone in that. Humble Bundle proved (before they removed public bundle purchase statistics from their website) that Linux users are not only willing to pay for software, but are often willing to pay more for decent software than any typical Windows user will (and most Mac users, too). We also tend to understand and respect software licenses more, and are generally unwilling to freely sign away our freedoms as easily. Problem is that most folks outside of the FOSS community too easily confuse free of cost and free as in freedom, and assume that the only reason people would use FOSS is because it's often free to download and use. Freedom is the reason I use it, and the fact that it's often also free of cost (even though I still pay for some of it) is just "icing on the cake" as the old saying goes.
I feel your frustration about business not going as envisioned. My current failure rate is two failed attempts to build profitable busines. Actually the second project is similar to yours. Invoice app for small entrepreneurs. Till today I'm the only user of the app. To reduce costs, I made it run completely without server support, all data is stored in local storage and hosted on netlify for free (no own domain). https://moja--fakturazdarma.netlify.app/. It was nice challenge for me to make it work completely without any backend (generation of pdfs using pdfmake, generating qrcodes and lzma compression ...) I still use it for main own invoicing and use to in my resume as work reference, but with zero money income.

Right, so you could see that 30 trillion + commercial number as a loan that the federal government is taking out that they only need to pay the interest on as it accrues(as people spend their land tax credits). This is something the federal government can handle, as the system will more than pay for itself over the lifetime of the tax credits.

A tax credit that gets subtracted when the homeowner defaults equal to the value of the default would resolve the walk-away problem.
> Relatively small numbers of Republicans vote in the primaries, and they tend to be the angrier, more extreme wing. Donald Trump was nominated in 2016 despite a majority of Republican primary voters actually voting for other candidates.

>I’ve only heard the relentless shit all the younger generations started talking about Boomers at some point.

Counterreaction, a lot of voices claiming to speak for boomers, or boomers themselves, have done plenty to claim "it's just young people messing up". Despite the obvious that they have been the majority voter base for decades, have more wealth as a collective, and because of their age and wealth, tend to have different incentives and opinions than the younger generations having problems to do something as simple as getting a foothold in adult life.

NB: the obvious problem isn't "boomer / old", but the nature of the social game as it is (relatively or perceived zero-sum) and the haves voting against the have nots.

>I conclude that every generation since the Boomers has been linearly weaker and less competent

Weaker and less competent how? I assure you, for every argument you'll find, you can find another argument which would flip the script.
Thank you so much for sharing your story! I find it very inspiring! Looking at the suicide rates in the world I am glad that you are not part of the statistics although you were struggling a lot in life.

I wonder if you are applying some selective bias, with that one decision and with that former peer. Did many of your former classmates and peers go off and land dazzling career positions? I doubt it. You probably made a ton of good decisions that you are discounting. A professional would probably apply some CBT techniques to get you thinking about the problem from a different perspective. I am a long time IC and have similar negative thoughts about, should be higher up the food chain, etc., and I find that those CBT techniques help.

This is where your math seems wrong, how come there are 999 plays of pop songs from 99 fans? should be 990, right?

However, if the pop fans listen to 10 songs per day, and jazz fan only listens to 1 or 2, then yes, some of jazz fan's money would go to pop artits.
I’ve used YNAB before and really liked it, this seems conceptually similar. Did anyone use both and would like to share their experience?

take my comment with a bag full of sand, i am no expert, still

when you talk about ARM, you have to license designs from the ARM, inc. Apple with its apple silicon is licensing from ARM the designs and IP from them.

with RISC-v, there is no company to hold you hostage for designs and all. its all open source so you can build your own chip, own design, own tech, everything.

this also means i assume that in the long run, if RISC-v and ARM are on equal footing, RISC-v would be more freer, cheaper because there is no licensing and other corporate stuff to go through like with ARM, inc
I guess the point is it's painting with a wide brush. Not every company needs a charlatan sociopath at the head. The CEO of a lawn care service is probably living a pretty mundane life.
