You can buy any of a number of EVs for quite a bit less than 50K. And they'd be replacing an equivalent ICEV that's going to be replaced anyway, for a use case that will not 100% be replaceable by public transit.

Comparing the US to Hong Kong is severely biased. Though it does explain why many people on HN are so delusional about what problems public transit can and cannot solve. Even in Europe, which everyone says has much better public transit than the US, the vast majority of people own cars. They're useful, and denying that just destroys the pro-transit argument before it can even be made.

This documentary really frustrated me. It seems the documentary creator wants to tell two stories at once but he conflates them. There is one story, the story of the financial maneuvering to take control of intellectual property. And there is another story where a mercurial creative is a nightmare to work for.

These are two completely distinct stories (IMO). The only way they connect is that the CEO who wrested financial control of the IP uses the difficult personalities of the creatives to justify firing them. So the conflation is: was it legally and morally justified to gain majority control over the IP vs. was it legally and morally justified to fire a difficult employee. It is a strange/absurd way to find some kind of journalistic balance and it just felt extremely amateur to me.

Kurvitz and Rostov legitimately sound like a nightmare to work for, as is often the case with single-minded and purpose driven creatives. They probably should not be in management positions. But there is almost no way anyone could say they didn't get finessed out of ownership of their creative work. I have no idea if it was legal but I do not see anyway to see it as moral, no matter how bad of a manger they were.
That's a great system. We call it a "deposit" and but we only use it for beer here. For a long time, beer was only sold at specific beer stores so it was natural for people to return their empty bottles and cans to the store for the deposit.

It seems most -isms inevitably leads to the superficially similar situation of a tiny elite either having total power or owning (almost) all resources, and thus power. Most would still prefer capitalism as at least it offers more personal freedoms and a chance of upward mobility.

I think the recent rise of anti-capitalism gets it wrong. Capitalism within the context of a nation can be made to work in a way that whilst imperfect has a reasonable balance.

It is specifically global capitalism (globalization) that is the problem. It allows for corporate super structures where workers nor governments have any leverage. Worker's rights cannot be defended so it's a race to the bottom. De-industrialization has hollowed out the middle class. Corporations pay little to no taxes. The triangle of government, business and worker that would ordinarily come to some kind of workable balance is gone. It's a never-ending stretch in one direction only: business.

Similarly, global capitalism allows corporations to hide all their dirty externalities. Dumping toxic trash in other countries, sweatshops, wrecking the environment, you just place that shit out of sight.

You would have considerable more outrage if a company would do that in their home country, close to their customer base.

I'll end with the uncomfortable truth that the above has led to the stagnation of the West and various global problems. At the same time it has significantly uplifted the general wealth of many developing nations.

Marx was, I think, of a very different mind about revolution than many of his later followers: I suspect that to Marx, a “socialist revolution” was more like the Industrial Revolution and less like the French (or, perhaps more to the point, Russian) Revolution.

Marx wasn't against providing concrete steps addressing coherent real issues adapted to the conditions in particular places (see the program for the German Communists that is often presented as an appendix to the Communist Manifesto). But the utopian end-state society was, in Marx’s view, rather far off.

There are already some divides for personal/corporate (see e.g. the "Work for hire" rules), and purely functional works are already limited in how copyrightable they can be (see e.g. [1]).

Once you get away from purely functional into things like textbooks and word-processors, things get complicated quickly. If I write a word-perfect clone, that's pretty darn functional, yet I probably make lots of creative choices in the process that are hidden from the user. If it's a word processor with its own peculiar interface, there are even user-visible creative choices.

Did you perhaps mean aesthetic versus functional? If so, then that's even more of a treacherous area. How many people have Minard's famous chart[2] hanging on their wall for aesthetic reasons? Or what about e.g. Dr. Suess' books. Are those aesthetic, or are they an educational tool?

The claim is Price’s Law, originally an observation about academic publications in a field - half of them come from the square root of the number of contributors, now taken as a general MBA style business rule of thumb. One which joins nicely with evaporative cooling, the idea that the top performers also have the most skills and experience because they are working harder, have the easiest time leaving for another job because they are the most driven and have the better work history to talk about, perhaps the most contacts from the more work done.

And together, there is likely to be a big overlap between the most useful employees and the ones who have the easiest chance of leaving. Lose sqrt(employees) of people for any reason where they self select - e.g. cancelled bonuses, deathmarch project, austerity measures, return to the office - and it’s likely to hurt disproportionately.
You didn't do anything wrong! It's just that if you consider two principles: (1) frontpage space is by far the scarcest resource HN has; and (2) repetition isn't good for curiosity, it follows that we need to try to keep a fair amount of time and space between similar-ish topics.

It's also in the interest of the follow-up post because then community interest in that-type-of-thing can focus on it specifically instead of getting split between semantically-overlapping threads.

I hope that makes sense!

It's a lot easier to argue against Marx than against Marxism, just as it's a lot easier to argue against Darwin than evolution. Marxism as a school of thought has evolved quite a bit since Marx, who any non-crank would admit was wrong about a host of things.

Marxism is largely descriptive, and so many people claim that it cannot be falsified. But there are ways you could falsify Marxism:
- Capitalism could mediate class conflict out of existence
- Capitalism could grow indefinitely without producing business crises
- Wages across the world could become roughly equal in terms of purchasing power, regardless of the country, without an economic crisis.

Now, these would have to happen in the actually existing world, and as such I can see the resistance to labeling them as falsifiable. So how would you falsify orthodox economics?

Along the same lines of attributing cancer deaths to radiation exposure. When it occurs immediately, one would more or less directly attribute it, but when it manifests later, you still acknowledge that it was a large contributing factor. Even if contributing factors are % of individual deaths, summed up over the population, it adds up many deaths. Similarly, one could look at # premature deaths in the presence of pollution.

> I guess no one was willing to put in the infrastructure.

This is kind of surprising. I remember when I was a kid (not that many decades ago), things like milk, soda, yogurt etc. would come in glass or ceramic bottles under a subscription service. [For context this wasn't in the US]

Every time the delivery day came, you would set out (sometimes a crate of) empty bottles that were then exchanged for the same amount of filled bottles. They'd then wash and sterilize the old bottles centrally and refill and recap for a future delivery.

Thing is, I don't recall buying drinks this way being more expensive per-bottle than what it costs today. Perhaps slightly more inconvenient since you had to remember to set out the old bottles, but it's not like people don't do that anyways today with their recycling...

Germany like many other Europeans would absolutely be considered a socialist country by most US standards (holding no distinction between socialism and social democracy).

This is a big part of the confusion, intentional as far as I can tell, generated by people trying to eliminate taxed, regulations, and worker protections in that they can flexibly do things like point out how Sweden is wonderful and has no minimum wage, so we should do that too, when the reality is inverted with successful universal collective bargaining guaranteeing everyone much better wages -- something that would probably get the national guard rolled out if US workers pushed for presently.
I always thought it would be interesting to try a "momentum limit" rather than a speed limit. I wonder how fast that would get people to move to lighter vehicles.
Specifically for the US and Germany literacy results, I see a difference between these and past methods of measuring literacy. In the first link, the most basic sample question required the user to interpret a simple table. The second and third level questions required users to navigate websites, including a task of finding the correct link to navigate to the correct page of a site.

I think this establishes a great point that we have an ever changing society with growing demands, where we now need to consider much more than just reading words. Internet literacy is a huge barrier, and it’s great to see it getting measured and accounted for as countries continue to adapt education to the changing times.

That's not correct. If every company was worker owned as long as the goods and services produced are traded on the open market as an exchange of value, that would still be capitalism. If "worker-owned" actually means government owned, however, then you're correct. Capitalism requires private ownership of the means of production.

This doesn't add up to me. The priorities of corporate executives are to please the board of directors. BoD priorities are to please shareholders/investors.

If employees are happier and more efficient working from home, it satisfies the priorities of all the above parties. If RTO makes people unhappy and either less productive OR makes them not want to work for that employer, it goes against the incentives and priorities of all the above parties.

Again, says who?

Depending on your definition of capitalism, corporate charters pre-date capitalism! Corporate charters were rights granted by governments to pursue economic activity. What we define as the introduction of "capitalism" was the granting of individuals without nobility the rights to corporate charters.

Today, a corporation is still a government defined-entitity for the purpose of generating economic activity.
