They're likely thinking that if someone were to argue against such legislation, they could take it all the way to the supreme court only to be disappointed in the final decision? Thinking they'd end up deciding that this sort of legislation is indeed "necessary and proper"? That's just how I read it, though. They could mean something entirely different for all I know. ;)

> Gen Z is also grabbing power: America now has more than 6,000 Zoomer chief executives and 1,000 Zoomer politicians.

I can’t see most of the article—does it go on to qualify any of this? Or to compare it to other generations at same age? What’s the median size of the firm these “chief executives” run? What does “politician” mean? School board? Town council in a city of 1,500?

In general I’d like to see a lot more use of median through all of what I could read and what I’ve seen in this thread, and less mean.
Ideally you'd want businesses to voluntarily operate in these places but it's hard to get them to. It is difficult to operate at a profit in these environments. Margins are worse because poorer populations can less afford luxury items. Costs are higher due to increase in theft, the need for additional security services, and insurance.

In recent years there have been high profile closures of big brand stores in major metro areas for exactly these reasons. Proposals to address grocery store closures include regulating them in San Francisco with a lengthy 6 month notice period and other requirements. In Chicago the idea has been floated for government run grocery stores.

While the jump to call such moves "the moral equivalent of slavery" is a bit extreme, they do exist in the realm of compelled behavior and against liberty. In the case of SF it's with regard to making it more difficult to exercise the decision to close a store, which may require the operator to take financial losses for longer and incur additional compliance related costs. In the case of Chicago, it's using tax payer money (which is collected through threat of incarceration) to operate a service that's traditionally provided voluntarily by a private actor because it yields them benefit (profits).

I doubt ad targeting actually uses AI, at least not in the quite heavy form we currently associate with the term, but the rest of your point stands.

However, I am not sure if using examples of something currently considered crime will work well, especially as people will actively deny anything other than petty violations like speeding. It is valid of course, in particular when combined with inhumane regimes and authorities, or even regular ones that do not see lightly on people airing their dirty laundry, but convincing others takes more than just having a correct argument...
I agree with you that things are currently quite bad, and need to get better. From my UK centric viewpoint, over the last decade Brexit, climate change and the pandemic have proven fertile ground for diverting peoples' attention away from societal issues that have not been addressed, or have even exacerbated by wilful neglect of basic services by Government.

But I have the feeling that that well of constant culture wars has run dry, and people are becoming more wary of being drawn into endless fruitless debates about these things. And after looking up form their smartphones they've finally seen all of the signs for Food Banks, noticed that the weather has gone insane and that the price of biscuits is inhumane and asked themselves 'how did we get here?' 'how do we get back to a better place?' and will hopefully agitate again for a better society.

I think the best way to get rid of a horrible law like this is indeed to enforce against the people who wrote it. Enforce equitably, and enforce equally: the same misery everyone else already knows. If ministers worry about their private communications being read by strangers—if that makes them feel fearful, paranoid, violated—then let them feel fearful, paranoid, violated, just like the hundreds of millions of other people they would enforce those feelings on.

JavaScript, Lua, and Qt have all given me cases of single-threaded concurrency because you can poll the event loop from inside a function. (I don't remember what loop I was using in Lua)

So you don't get memory unsafety (except in Qt) but you do get immutable variables changing when you're not looking at them.

Actually maybe it was c#. I wrote a coroutine in c# once and I regret that I did not make it an explicit state machine. Having to re-check all my shared state after each await point made it worthless.

I would argue soda is a lot more impactful than alcohol if we talking about cumulative deaths, financial cost, or quality adjusted lives lost.

The reality is that there is many ways to compare the characteristics of different substances. There are long-term impacts, short-term impacts, ld50, moral impacts, dose control, chemical addiction potential, chemical addiction rate, Etc.

You have to understand all of these to make sense of why different chemicals might be considered differently.

Like it or not, When compared to a lot of drugs alcohol has a high ld50, High dose control, and low chemical addiction rate.

You are unlikely to OD on a drink because the dose was high and there is too much alcohol in it. You are unlikely to get chemical withdrawal and cravings from infrequent use.

This puts a lot more control in the hands of users which is an important moral and Regulatory consideration.

Utilitarian analysis of total death or cost to a very bad job of taking into account any of the moral considerations

It also happens on my Raspberry Pi 5 with 2 screens connected over microHDMI. They are dissimilar screens, too: one is an HDMI 27", one is an old HDMI 24" via a converter cable, in portrait orientation. So, both fully digital, and both should be easily distinguished by the OS.

The majority of the noise, even at relatively low speeds, comes from the tires. Additionally the low noise at low speed is an actual danger to pedestrians, which deserves a remedy.

First, Bolton was a civilian. (And if you're going to say that "he's an involved civilian", well, so is the nuclear scientist. Iran doesn't have a nuclear program just to produce reactors.)

Second, of course it's a retaliation. But the killings Israel and the US did were also retaliations. And what they were retaliating for were also retaliations. If you condemn assassination-as-retaliation on the US and Israeli side, condemn it on Iran's side as well.

(And, note that if this is ever going to end, some people who are guilty of atrocities are going to have to be unpunished. That feels morally wrong. But both sides punishing the authors of atrocities leads to the current situation, which also doesn't feel very moral.)

> The problem is that EU institutions are so far and detached from the member states that most citizens are completely unaware of their doing

That's largely because citizens of several countries accept the narrative of their local governing parties that the EU is some "external force" that is outside of anyone's control.

Reality is that the EU is largely formed by members of local political parties sent to EU-institutions. They just send people there which they deem not useful for local campaigning or prefer to become "invisible" to local politics.

Citizens should not accept this narrative, and instead demand more transparency on the activities of the local politicians sent to EU, holding the party accountable for their actions (or non-action) within the EU.

The chart you linked stops before it gets to the cohort discussed in the article. The youngest cohort shown is the 25-34 cohort in 2016 would have been born in 1982-1991 ("gen y"/"millenials"). The economist article is discussing the cohort born starting in 1997. It seems to think the chart gets rosier for the young.

American society now has the same kind of "me-me-me" mentality I see in Asia (both developed like Japan or Singapore, or developing like China and India), the Americas (Mexico, Brazil, Colombia), or Eastern Europe (Israel, Ukraine, Russia, Romania, etc).

The only way to succeed in this kind of a society is to be ruthless. Most Americans are NOT. You even see that here on HN, with people complaining about educated Immigrants doing better than educated Americans.

You need to be ruthless in a low trust society, and it's the same now in the US.

EVERYONE needs SSO.

1. SaaS providers need it so they don't store your creds. If they don't store them, they can't leak them.

2. You need it because 1.

3. Nobody needs SSO any more :-) Actually you only need OpenID Connect which shows up as "Sign in with" or "Continue with", which -- if coupled with a domain name validation on your canonical user ID -- amounts to most of the same value as the complicated SSO / SAML dance without per customer config. It is less work for a SaaS provider to support sign in with than to make an entire auth chain.

My current recommendation to new SaaS offerings is OIDC plus magic links as a fallback. (Many SaaS go a very long way with just magic links, those plus a domain name in email address check can also tie employees to a company, regardless of the company's IdP.)

All that said, SCIM and group-to-role sync, etc., should be EXTRA. You need extra moving parts, and enterprises with information barrier or other compliance or regulatory obligations are thrilled to pay for this.

This is really intellectually bankrupt, whether on purpose or not.

The main issue is that they're basing a large part of their claims on ZIRP-era data, but the economy (obviously) changed completely once the 14-year gush of money was turned off in summer 2022. For example, "Quiet quitting", which the article cites to support its argument, was only possible in the peak ZIRP period 2020-2022 and today is unimaginable. Really, I would expect The Economist of all outlets to grasp this.

Also, the article is very light on specifics, e.g. it says "Their home-ownership rates are higher than millennials at the same age. They also save more post-tax income than youngsters did in the 1980s and 1990s." OK, but how much? If it's a few percentage points or less, that's largely noise, but if it's a double-digit amount, it's a genuine difference. As it is, we don't know, so the "unprecedentedly rich" claim in the headline is unsubstantiated.

Besides this, a bunch of areas related to inflation and prices are handled sloppily. For example, the article says Zoomers are paying about the same percentage of income as previous generations for housing and education, but it doesn't look at the quality of either -- I wouldn't be surprised if Zoomers are getting less for their money (less square feet of housing, degrees with worse job prospects, etc.). Also, as someone who lives in a southern European country, I can tell you that plummeting unemployment numbers in places like this (they cite Spain's and Greece's in a graph) are due to people emigrating en masse in search of high-paying, year-round jobs.

All in all, my biggest takeaway from this article is to confirm my impression that The Economist today is intellectually sloppy and baldly makes arguments with weak or no evidence in support. I'd gotten that impression after having subscribed for a few weeks not long ago, and this article, which I might have written off as a fluke otherwise, cemented it.
The laptop story was very sketchy and treated with suitable skepticism. And now that we have a clearer picture, it's not interesting at all. While the laptop itself may have turned out to be real, I'm not aware that the contents have ever been authenticated and the fact that the story was only trumpeted by Rudy Giuliani makes it campaign propaganda. We didn't learn anything about it, but we did see Hunter's penis entered into the Congressional record.
Also some millennials entered the job market around the 2009 crash and it was brutal. It would set your career back years behind and it was a tough damage to undo later.
The Commission doesn't "dictate" policy. They are the body that has the power to initiate legislature, but the Parliament (the democratically elected part of the EU orgs) has to vote on them.
