At this point I'm at the brink of advocating for violence.

I can't understand how people is so relaxed talking about this issue, seen large swaths of people in the west becoming poor and homeless.

It's not like we don't know what to do. It seems our elites don't really think it's a pressing issue. As long as they keep extracting wealth, they're fine.

Since the poor has no effective tool to overturn this situation, I think it's time for people to take justice in their own hands. It's the best way to send a message.

Maybe realizing their investments and their safety are in high risk will make them move their asses so we can have social peace.

We can't have millions of people becoming homeless and be like it's nothing.
> I don't know if it it was or not, but a few counter-points is not proof.

Literally no one in politics thinks about purely short term issues actually. I *disagree* with my political opponents, but that's because my vision of the next 30 years is grossly different than their vision of the next 30 years.

-----

This isn't about "counter-examples". This is about you failing to provide even the first example of short-term thinking. What exactly is your "short term" problem that was messed up here?

Brexit, in particular, was never supposed to be a quick-and-easy process. I think it was an idiotic idea, but everyone knew it'd have short-term pain. You can call the UK Brexit crowd stupid perhaps for misreading the future. But they weren't thinking "short term" at all.

I've got criticisms of the Brexit crowd, and that has more to do with xenophobia, europ-phobia, self-centered thinking, etc. etc. But it doesn't actually have to do with "short term vs long term" thinking. If anything at all, the Brexit crowd was very forward looking (just wrong / incorrect about it, if anything, misjudging the short-term effects of Brexit's decision)

It will be interesting to see how that plays out now that interest rates are rising. Honestly it feels a lot like 08 all over again. Somebody decided to go and get another home as an investment property, they leveraged themselves but took advantage of the low interest rates and a 20 year mortgage, it was a smart idea at the time, prices kept going up, they could just keep bumping rent because where would anyone else go, everywhere was getting more expensive.

Interest rates go up, there are problems with people affording the rent, suddenly their unit is sitting vacant for a month, or two, or three. They drop prices to increase interest, it isn't enough. Suddenly they need to flip the house, but because interest rates have gone up demand has gone down, everyone who was getting on the rental property gravy train suddenly isn't so interested when they're paying 8% instead of 2%, so the house is underwater. The bank forecloses and sells the property for cheap they don't want houses they want money, this means demand for other houses that are now overpriced becomes even lower, the dominoes keep falling. Suddenly tons of people that looked to the RE gravy train find themselves in over their head for taking out debts that seemed like a good idea at the time.

The only honest answer I can give there is, "I don't know". So far as I'm aware, Twitter hasn't alleged that, no evidence has been presented supporting such an allegation, and generally it seems a heavy burden to present a court with convincing evidence of a conspiratorial theory like that, but I can't categorically say what Elon Musk's motives weren't.
Too bad? Hilarious.

Stay in your concrete hellhole, and stop acting like you know what's best for everyone else. If I wanted to live like you, I'd live where you do. And no matter how much you want my area to change (because you clearly can't stand for people to live in ways you don't agree with) it's not going to.
> We don't tolerate people hoarding other scarcities

Can you give me an example of something we don't tolerate being hoarded? I genuinely can't think of anything. People seem to be allowed to accumulate whatever they can afford to, if they choose to. If it's on the market, that is.

"Surely" is the opposite of science. There are as many kinds of surfactants as of acids and bases.

I sold my houses in a booming market for a $70,000 loss intentionally. It has a nice effect of lowering the value of all my neighbors homes and housed a deserving family.

Little did I know when I went to claim the loss on my taxes: I could not claim the loss at all. Since it was an owner occupied house and not a house owned by a corporation, it did not count as a loss I could deduct from my income nor from my capital gains.

Houses are meant to trap and enslave common people. It decreases their mobility and roots them in areas they otherwise would want to leave. When you gain money from a house, there are all kinds of benefits. When you lose money as an owner, there are no protections for you.

The system is a racket designed to continuously inflate home prices.

Everyone participating in it should be ashamed for making their children serfs & homeless while they live in castles.

The mental model many people seem to have is "foreigners will pay us exorbitant amounts of tuition for a prestigious diploma, and education isn't actually valuable so we might as well send them back home".

And it's only mildly surprising people think this way. The median American does seem to go through an educational system that takes all their money and gives them a diploma without actually providing valuable expertise in anything. But the experience is exactly the opposite for the best immigrants, who only sometimes pay much tuition (PhDs in STEM in particular very rarely pay with anything other than their labor as teaching/research assistants), and gain enormously valuable expertise. It's completely asinine, but perhaps not so surprising.
I don't want higher density for the same reason I don't go on vacations on cruise ships and don't use public transportation. People are gross and assholes. The more people the more chance of tragedy of the commons, and once it sets in it is hard to stop. Most college educated Americans lived in college dorms, and went on to NOT want to live in shared building environments. It's not about racism, it's about not wanting to live in high density areas, hence buying homes with ZONING LAWS that guarantee me I can live how I choose. If I want high density, that is what cities are for. Stop trying to TAKE my (property) rights away(that is what zoning laws are, guarantee of my RIGHTS as they related to THE LARGEST INVESTMENT I WILL EVER MAKE IN MY LIFE). It's great to have an opinion, but to project onto others in order to make yourself feel superior and manipulate power dynamics is why this country is falling apart. Every action you take should BUILD and add value, not simply tear some 'other' down. But that would be hard, and BUILDING society is hard, and you would have to endure others having a right to their opinion. To quote Julius Caesar “It is easier to find men who will volunteer to die, than to find those who are willing to endure pain with patience.”. You are a fine soldier for your cause, but your argument shows signs of a poor citizen.

Now, it's about 25%. In the future it will be 50%, the 100% - the trend is going in that direction. Millennials and the generations after will look at era of home ownership like the "good old days" while coughing up 75% of their income for rent.

You are correct: PhotoStructure is not preinstalled on PiBoxes.

Renting for life isn't the same thing as being indebted for life. You can move out at any time and the landlord doesn't have any hold over you. Doesn't sound much like peonage to me.
You're correct that the data comes from data providers. What you may not know is how both Oracle and Salesforce implemented these products: They create a common identifier and copy all the audiences / attributes from the data providers in to the Oracle / Salesforce data cloud.

So they indeed did not collect most of the data themselves (although Oracle owns a few of the biggest data sources...), but they are the ones that have a central database with 5 billion+ identifiers in it and tens of thousands of attributes for each identifier. So they are really not as innocent as you suggest they are.

When someone wants to use the data, that customer pays Oracle. So it's Oracle selling the dataset. That they then pay a fee to some of the data sources really doesn't change that. Especially not since they own several of the data sources themselves.
It's easier than writing a driver for FreeBSD yourself, I suppose, although I'd probably just get a USB Wi-Fi dongle instead of worry about walking into a meeting and my Wi-Fi driver VM crashing :)

I think most people who are against the rentier economy would agree that there is great value in all of those things, but that they shouldn't be a for-profit enterprise. One way to obtain that value without landlords is for the state to buy land, subdivide it, and build dense housing units available to citizens who live in them at a reasonable, or even subsidized, cost.
I'm sure they had more than one shared interest. There's certainly tech, for example, given that it's a tech conference. But the focus tends to be on alcohol when everyone at the event is handed a beer ticket.
>14.5 months on average

The system is different for everyone. It depends on visa types, country of origin and a bunch of other factors.

Also, the 14.5 months on average is just the time it takes for USCIS to process the N400 application for naturalization. The actual time it takes for the naturalization is 18-24 months. And the biggest part that comes before you apply for naturalization for most immigrants is to obtain a Greencard, which takes the longest time, in some cases more than a few decades.

I make heavy usage of multireddit.

I have four for cool images and art, two for funny things, one for discussion oriented subs, one for news, one for stupid edgy memes, and others for minor subs.

I could share a list later. I use each depending of my mood.

What's important for me is avoiding political drama, violence oriented subs or justice subs which have really disturbing content I don't need to see (car violence, street violence etc). It's difficult and requires time to evaluate each sub.

I have already left a sub because the content started to be too violent, for example /r/unexpected

> Fortunately there's a constant supply of energy into the earth system, so conservation of energy is not violated!

I read versions of this argument all the time. What I find amazing about it is that proponents dismiss conservation of energy without realizing that without it, there would be nothing to talk about.

CoE is at the CORE of global warming and is THE relevant scientific principle that rules it.

Why?

Earth could be thought of as an isolated system in space. Energy-in, energy-out.

If the planet emits less energy than it receives, it gets hot.

If the planet emits more energy than it receives, it freezes.

Everything we are talking about has to do with the principle of conservation of energy and its application at a planetary level.

If, for example, we somehow capture 20% more of the solar energy we receive on the surface and do not return it to space, we will cook ourselves. In other words, any so-called solution that seeks to transform solar energy into magical beans to precipitate CO2 from the atmosphere has provide solid accounting of how it will affect energy balance. After all, a CO2 reduction solution isn't so unless it can operate at a planetary scale. And, because of that, it will require an astronomical amount of energy and matter to work.

Something --anything-- of that scale that is claimed to work in decades, rather than tens of thousands of years, will require energy and matter at probably an unimaginable scale (is that larger than astronomical?). This places it between impossible and fucking dangerous.

At one end of the scale we just can't pull it off, end-up causing more damage and pollution than we ever imagined and waste decades and resources that could have been put to good use.

At the other end of the scale we deploy something that might kill half (or more) the life on earth, permanently damage ecosystems, food supplies, weather and more.

Do nothing, then?

No.

Just don't do stupid.

I’ve encountered Bush/Obama types who believe in free movement of labor and capital trying to redefine it as a reference to Jewish people to avoid discussion of the merits of their ideas, if that’s what you mean.

Sorry, but globalism is an important phenomenon for discussion, just as capitalism and socialism and communism were in the 20th century. We’re not going to make the obvious label to describe proponents of that ideology taboo based on some completely contrived dog whistle. (Not only contrived but non-sensical given that Israel has very traditional and non-globalist views of what it means to be a nation.)
In supply constrained areas, more SFHs are physically impossible. And the more people who are allowed to live in their preferred multi family units, the more SFHs available to those who prefer them.

We don't block SFHs anywhere, there's no minimum density. However we block higher densities nearly everywhere.

So blaming the people wanting higher density makes zero sense.
My answer depends on what you mean by “productive.” I can produce the most working code per hour in SQL. I also get paid the most per line of code for SQL. Replacing 300 lines of application code with 20 lines of SQL gives a net reduction in source code (if that’s what you mean by “output”).

I can write working application code fastest in C, meaning the most lines of code per hour. That doesn’t necessarily translate to what I call “productive” in the sense of something that solves a business problem and doesn’t incur long-term costs.

I can write PHP code very fast too, from years of experience working with legacy PHP projects.

I think of “productive” as making the most money for the time I spend. Programming languages have little to do with that measure of productivity.
Ah sorry about that! I was just picking a random spot in Ohio that was kinda nearish the Great Lakes. I guess I moved to Far East. Did you like it there?
Ya I think per building would be a good metric. We need higher density housing. Megacomplexes accomplish this.
Eh, I think from a Bayesian standpoint its valid to think that if somebody has a last name that correlates with a group that doesn't drink, and that person also argues against drinking that they're more likely to be a member of that group.

But that's the key part "more likely", and not something definitive. It's the thinking that that inference is definitive is where it crosses the line from trying to be understanding about another culture to becoming a racist argument.

I agree though that its definitely flirting with that dangerous assumption.

Azidoazole Azide is another classic from the "take a nasty little functional group and build a whole molecule out of them" family.

https://www.science.org/content/blog-post/things-i-won-t-wor...

Fulminates and Azides are known for their physical sensitivity, they're the primary explosive used for the primers in gun cartridges. Azides are generally more sensitive than fulminates - mercury fulminate is an older primer compound where mercury azides are quite unstable and reactive.

Azidoazole Azide is basically an azide group bonded to an azole ring... azole is like pentane except with a nitrogen ring. So basically just one giant pile of nitrogen bonds looking for a reason to un-bond.

See also, Hexanitrohexaazaisowurtzitane, although the name isn't nearly as suggestive, but that's a nice little molecular diagram right there too lol. "Thrillingly nitrogenated", would probably be the description.

Apparently GitHub hosts over 50 million projects.

SourceForge in comparison seems to have 500k projects.

GitLab seems to outright hide the number of projects they host.

I'm not sure that the number of companies hosting their projects on any other service would have a meaningful impact on results.

That depends on the computing system. You're right if we're talking about the processor level (on any modern processor), but the "signed ints" in C or C++ are not a field at all, since INT_MAX + 1 is undefined, as are -INT_MIN and INT_MIN - 1 (and many many many multiplications). Also, as someone else was pointing out, unsigned short arithmetic is not well defined either.

> I read the full whistle-blower complaint

The content of the complaint is all that matters, and it should be judged on its own merits. It never matters who said what, and attempting to make it matter is ad hominem fallacy; it is what is said that matters.

That said, I can't quite fathom why Twitter's cybersecurity matters any more than the cybersecurity of any of the myriad of online forums, HN included: the "data" simply isn't all that important; it is all public, it is all talk, and talk, as we know, is cheap. Say Twitter is completely overrun by foreign state actors who delete everything. The outrage is going to be minimal. "Dang, I really enjoyed mouthing off on Twitter. Oh, well."

People with kids dont tend to have deep hobbies and exciting travels. Thinking about it, most people without them dont have hobbies they are super invested in either. There are some people with those and it is interesting when they talk about it, but most of them splits time between work and familly, putting a movie on top of it here and there.
> You’re well within your rights to enjoy alcohol. Please, however, make certain that your enjoyment does not come at the expense of inclusivity and the safety of others.

My enjoyment of things is never going to include everyone. There just isn't a lowest common denominator. Diversity in work and in life is all about recognizing that people are indeed different and treating that as something to strive for, not to avoid with words like "inclusivity". Diversity means that nothing includes everyone. People should feel free to opt out without trying to get everyone else to as well.
Are they using an especially unusual choice of surfactant in roundup? Wouldn't it be trivial to just go to one with a better safety profile if it's not the active ingredient? It just doesn't seem like a plausible conspiracy to me that Monsanto would be going to such efforts to hide the side effects of the surfactant they are using. I'm not saying it shouldn't be studied, I'm just saying this doesn't seem like such a huge "gotcha" to me.
