Probably not. I don’t live in that state anymore. If I moved back I could probably get a state job, but I’m not exactly in a position to move right now.

Also the benefits were not that great from what I remember. Ima few years in private industry, I was making more than the director of the department with a better benefits packages. The only people making good money in state government there were tenured professors and football coaches.
Oh? Since it's demonstrable, please demonstrate how impractical that is.

Once the writing was on the wall for Musk's takeover of Twitter, I quit. After being a daily user for many years. It was not easy, but it was also not impractical. And I'm better off for it.

I don’t want to like “exception that proves the rule” here, but I overgeneralized the area. I think Scott is in Oakland and runs in pretty specific circles. Probably very different from Hayward. And then Chicago isn’t exactly typical Midwest.
I agree with you. I also believe that raising the alarm via social media is a good first step toward building shared understanding and focus on this problem.

If you haven’t heard, arbitration agreements are the shit.

Law firms have caught on and have figured out how to spam claims at corporations.

In arbitration, there is no option to combine cases into a class action suit.
Labor Theory of Value: The value of a commodity can be objectively measured by the hours of socially necessary labor required to produce it.

So the "value" of a commodity is fixed at the time of production.

But what is "value"?

It's not the utility ("use value").

It's not the market price, which changes over time.

Marx and others try to map "value" to price (Transformation problem) and try to measure exploitation of workers using profits based on selling prices, so there's an attempt to consider this "value" as the correct, instrinsic worth of a commodity.

Consider a brand-new in-the-box iPhone. It has a fixed labor-theory-value, yet its price and worth go down every year as new models come out.

How does labor theory of value help to understand this?

Mainstream economists had moved to a subjective value model even before Marx's death. See the "Marginal Revolution".

This explains that the value of the old model iPhone is reduced because it is less useful than competing newer models, reducing the demand for the older model.

Yet according to labor theory of value, its value is determined by its production.

Thus "value" is best understood as a measure of a cost of production, not as a measure of the "worth" of a commodity.

Wasteful labor? More cost, not more worth.

Increased skill? Reduced labor cost to produce.

Better tools/automation? Reduced labor, reduced cost.

Where's the misunderstanding?
Very likely you'll need to write a postal letter. Sign in with a notary. Keep a copy. Mail original via certified mail.

IIRC Bruce Schneier, years ago, tried to find a car that respected privacy for personal use, and gave up. It wasn't a report, just an offhand comment.

Why would you expect the car companies to not collect as much as possible? They see everyone else getting away with it.

Then why has it not yet been done? Has God touched Flexport on the shoulder and said "We deem Ye worthy to redeem the freight forwarding industry?"

It seems to me that if it's so easy as you describe, and yet it hasn't been done, than maybe it's not so easy after all. Perhaps not impossible. Perhaps doable. But perhaps not that easy. People who work in the industry are not stupid. They don't want to do unnecessary busywork. What are they missing? And why has Flexport not taken the industry by storm if it's so easy to automate?
I switched to Capital One recently. Have a friend who works there.

However the best bank I ever used was I believe a smaller bank, 5/3rd.

5/3rd had the best service a non bloated mobile app and good rates on loans/mortgages. Moved out of the country so I closed the account but I do miss that bank
> Supply and demand does not allow for unbounded rises in prices because demand is never infinite. Rather, prices go up to the highest amount demand will allow for.

Generally, yes, but it's not an absolute.

Each time an employee is poached for more money, that person has more money to spend; done frequently enough, this will increase the velocity of money and cause general inflation or even hyper-inflation.

I'm only speaking hypothetically because folks are talking about 0% unemployment.

A few interesting notes:

> Tesla is only the second product we have ever reviewed to receive all of our privacy “dings.” (The first was an AI chatbot we reviewed earlier this year.)

“if you no longer wish for us to collect vehicle data or any other data from your Tesla vehicle, please contact us to deactivate connectivity. Please note, certain advanced features such as over-the-air updates, remote services, and interactivity with mobile applications and in-car features such as location search, Internet radio, voice commands, and web browser functionality rely on such connectivity. If you choose to opt out of vehicle data collection (with the exception of in-car Data Sharing preferences), we will not be able to know or notify you of issues applicable to your vehicle in real time. This may result in your vehicle suffering from reduced functionality, serious damage, or inoperability.

> Nissan earned its second-to-last spot for collecting some of the creepiest categories of data we have ever seen. It’s worth reading the review in full, but you should know it includes your “sexual activity.” Not to be out done, Kia also mentions they can collect information about your “sex life” in their privacy policy. Oh, and six car companies say they can collect your “genetic information” or “genetic characteristics.”

> Hyundai ... says they will comply with “lawful requests, whether formal or informal.” [from government]
I honestly would give zero fs about what he thinks is best, except for the fact that Cal Newport is the author of So Good They Can’t Ignore You and Deep Work, two books that changed how I view things and I believe made me understand better what's really going on in the world.

Though I didn't become the Taylor Swift of coding, I think that I ended up in a good place in part thanks to his books.

Another reason why this article probably resonated with many is that they see the issue in their own or their friends life. Some can't just simply work, or be with their loved ones, they constantly need something, YouTube in the background, minutes of scrolling through Twitter/HN/Facebook/Instagram, some addicted to porn, etc, and some started to pinpoint this issue to "overstimulation".

No, what it means is that if those people went anywhere else, total emissions would increase because other US cities are not as well-equipped for helping people live without the use of personal vehicles, which are the major emitters in the US.

Surely it is people that are entirely about power?

Perhaps, but capitalism only describes one of many different ways of organizing ownership. It is not about ownership in and of itself. It turns out that we already have a word for ownership: Ownership. We came up with another word, capitalism, because it means something else.

imho there are a lot of steps you can take to make your day-to-day feel better, even if it doesn't give a radical "oh I just turned everything around one day" kind of feeling.

By default, don't have any notifications show on your lock screen unless they're from close family or friends (or you're a SRE whose job it is to deal with problems at 2am, but that's another story). Any app that isn't specifically human-to-human-communication-based probably doesn't need to be sending you notifications at all, ever. Keep track of your weekly screen time notifications from your operating system, and be mindful of having that trend upward.

Set specific times in the day when you're going to look at random communications/email, and stick to those times -- if it helps, set a calendar time for that. The more you can get into that timed routine, the easier it is to reduce the total amount of time spent on distracting things and the more you'll be able to budget your time for deep work.

Social media, it can be really tempting to feel fomo with friends/coworkers/family/etc. You'll feel like you're missing out at first, but that feeling does get smaller and smaller over time. You don't need to cut it out 100%; but what you need to do is eg stop that quick 2-minute refresh of the Gram when it's 10:30am and you really should be more productive.

It isn't a magical self improvement routine, there isn't a promise of happiness, but eg reducing doomscrolling and reading shit comment responses and shit bird app threads and seeing shit clock app videos, it will give you a lot more mental energy.
From Skinner's perspective, given his lack of interest in internal states, it would be seen in responses that are coherent despite variations in stimuli.

For example, I could have a hundred different people ask you where you're from. Ask you in many different ways with many different setups, affects, hints. For most people, there will be consistencies across the answers that correspond to what we might call "fact", or at least "belief". But the LLMs, being fancy autocomplete, will produce things that are only textually plausible, showing much shallower consistency, and more relationship with their prompts.

And that's just in the question and answer space. It becomes even more obvious when we do things that involve real-world objects, physical behavior, etc.
I do agree with most of this. I work with React on a daily basis and, while it has made things much easier than using something like jQuery or writing vanilla Javascript, I do think they're adding features that is making it more complicated to use. I still can't wrap my head around NextJS and some of the things it is doing. I prefer not to use the new features at this point.
I had a similar experience.

I was told “Hey they’re all from <big company>!” as if it was a positive.

I wondered “How is it everyone of these guys buddies worked there and big company didn’t keep them?”

Learned pretty fast why they left / the other company didn’t keep them… (they were all smoke and mirrors and no results).
I can't think of any reason why they would do that other than specifically to prevent looping.
A bit of background on these people might be important here. Andrew is a neuroscientist, but a bit of a controversial one.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_D._Huberman#Reception_a...

>In Time magazine, Huberman received praise for promoting interest in science.[5] However, he has been criticized by other scientists for prematurely applying the preliminary results of animal studies as having potential applications for humans.[5]

>Jonathan Jarry at the McGill Office for Science and Society has questioned Huberman's promotion of controversial supplements. According to Jarry, Huberman Lab has been sponsored by "companies offering questionable products from the perspective of science-based medicine".[14]

Cal Newport is a computer scientist. Zero background in neuroscience.

Lastly, I think it should be noted that while heavy social media use is associated with depression, there's absolutely no scientific weight behind this "overstimulation" rhetoric.

I don't like arbitration agreements generally, and I don't think they should be allowed be used so universally, but this doesn't seem especially obnoxious. It is just the terms for using their "digital services," and so it should not impact the terms you agreed to when you signed up for your account, which probably already have a separate arbitration agreement.

Maybe this will sound silly if you’re not from Texas but having “auburn football” (out of state team) in your twitter bio practically automatically disqualifies you from a major political role.
My point was more about quantities - assume 1:1 elasticity, there are like 11,000 Airbnbs in nyc (assume all investor owned / 100% dedicated to Airbnb), that’s like 0.3% of the housing stock in NYC. If you sold them all tomorrow it would be like one months sales.

My main point being that people expecting any sort of regulation on Airbnb to have an effect on pricing seems naive.

Unfortunately, currency-adjusted capability/cost in (eh, edit, most) classes of US military aircraft and surface vessels has been dropping like a rock in comparison to peer competitors since 2013, which - rather obviously, by this point in world history - by peer competitor we mean PLAAF/PLAN/PLARF.

Most of the reason for this is the fact our peers are semi-command economies, and can steer "commodified" production into dual-use at the tip of a hat. Also, it's called "command" for a reason; they can get away with horrible shit. But another part of the reason is the one that's a bit more obvious: an unholy matrimony of single supplier syndrome with utterly complete regulatory capture. Oh, and assholes, who love the hell out of getting fifteen vacation homes from nonexistent projects.

It's the second one I can do something about, so it's always on the front of my brain (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻
But we don't use juries to determine what is moral. We use them to determine what is illegal. There is a wide difference.
But capitalism has consequences. Those consequences are also capitalism, even if they’re not the stated intent.
But that's the problem, we can explain all of this with LLMs.

> A world where "Realize capital has no market value without labor to work it" is true cannot see power reset in the hands of those with capital as it asserts that capital has no value without labour, which means that labour holds all the power.

Yes and no, the capitalist needs the labour for their capital to be worth anything, but likewise the Labor needs the tools the capitalist owns to multiply the value of their labour.
Since capital gives control of the state (indirectly) the state tends to also support capital which then has a monopoly on violence and can coerce labor through means that the labour itself doesn't have. Historically this has come about in the police engaging in union busting (an example of how capital is power).

As somebody currently trying to find this for US news, I've found that it's much harder than I thought: A lot of focus on summarizing a bunch of things that don't matter, instead of focusing on the things that do. Does anybody have any suggestions?
Whoah... Surely this may not be the only news waiting to come out.. They just need to find out what else they've got during this period..
I hear you, but there was no arbitration clause in my original agreement.
No, it's not zero sum, it's possible to destroy value, i.e. 1+1 could equal less than 2. And it's also possible to create value, i.e. 1+1 could equal more than 2.

In the extreme case even literal bars of gold can become worthless after a few seconds of 'work', e.g. if someone throws them into an active volcano. After which no human individual or group would derive anything from it.

I just bought a Kia Niro. So I read the articles on Kia and Hyundai (Kia controller) and couldn't find any "tests" on them.

So something triggers more dopamine in our brain, and that gives us a desired to catch the thing that triggered the dopamine? Is that it?

Could we say that dopamine is what causes us to experience "lust"?

Do we crave for dopamine, or is experiencing dopamine the same thing as experiencing a graving?

Do nicotine addicts have a lot of dopamine in their brain when they crave the next cigarette? Then when they get the cigarette, does that remove the dopamine (-activity) from their brain?

If you don’t need lending products (mortgage, auto), I recommend Fidelity. Cash Management account is a better checking account, and you can hold money market funds instead of a savings account. Wires in and out are free. Checks are free. Easy to buy brokered CDs and US treasuries (which you buy will depend on your investment objectives and if your state has an income tax). Customer service is domestic and helpful. Branches are not everywhere, but you should be able to accomplish everything online or via mail (ie depositing a check that exceeds mobile deposit limits of $100k daily). No Zelle though, will need to hold an account elsewhere to have that capability.
> don't get ownership over the full value that they produce.

But the value is subjective. A few lines of code is not valuable to me, no matter what context, so I am happy to trade it for a salary.

If I dig a hole for someone, someone agrees to pay me $50 for it. I value the $50 more than the cost of labour to do the hole. Me making holes is no value to me, and infact it's a good workout, so if they didn't pay me to do it I'd just go to the gym and do the same movement for free.

To them, it's probably the start of a fence or a clothesline or something that solves a real problem for them. Much more valuable than $50

The Zoom arbitration agreement includes a specific clause for that which lets them combine separate claims together and only arbitrate 15 of them.

From a consumer perspective it really is a no-win situation. The agreements are specifically designed to make the process as one sided as possible.
