No, I acknowledge that there's a good few paragraphs more of the superficial, doctrinaire nonsense you have been parroting than was immediately obvious to me here. Enough to be worth pasting through GPTZero, more than enough to say anything novel or interesting, and what a shame you never got there.

One example to shut you up: about the first thing every serious critic of The Moon is a Harsh Mistress addresses is that it's intentionally and explicitly written with about two-thirds of an eye toward the American "revolution" - hence the correspondences between Professor de la Paz and Benjamin Franklin (with a generous dash of Jefferson) on the one hand, and Mannie as an obvious George Washington expy on another. These are intentional similarities! Heinlein mentions it explicitly in Expanded Universe (don't hold me to that, it may have been in Grumbles from the Grave) and it's treated at length in one or another of the crit histories I've read, or maybe it was the Patterson biography, I'm not reading back hundreds of pages of diary notes for your lazy ass. It may have been the novel's own preface! He was intentionally loose with the correspondences, both in character and in plot, for narrative and didactic reasons, and that has proven a fruitful vein for both critical analysis and outright criticism over the years, and you can't even talk about any of it. You didn't notice any of this. Because you never learned the difference between looking at books and reading them. I'm sure you looked at every page, though!

These essays of yours are, generously, on the level of a college freshman who parties too much, studies too little, and treats English as a dump course. I did more thoughtful work as a high-school senior. For this you feel the need to be secretive? What a joke. Get lost, flyweight.
Any time the trick is to get humans "to just do" $thing, that $thing wont happen. Because humans.
It’s supposed to be paid for by people who’d rather work to earn just a bit more than UBI than do nothing and get paid, obviously.

The fundamental problem with UBI, like every other feel-good economic initiative, is that its proponents make poor assumptions about how the people who stand to benefit will behave — see all the predictions that the folks currently working in fast food or Walmart will magically turn into entrepreneurs or usher in a golden age of art if they simply had $1000 per month in cash. It’s noble to think the best of others, but they just kind of hand wave away the reality that there’s a non-trivial population that aspires to do nothing more than consume drugs and/or play video games for their entire lives. It’s not everyone obviously, but it’s enough to be a problem. Doubly so when you consider they could become a sizable voting bloc that will continue to vote for whoever promises to increase UBI.

When people dismiss UBI studies that last for just a few years and target a small slice of the population, it’s precisely because these long term negative effects take time and people to play out.

>> A German experiment has found that people are likely to continue working full-time even if they receive no-strings-attached universal basic income payments.

That's because this is not basic income but just an additional, lucky source of income, for a limited time. It's effectively landing a contract job on top of a regular job. I'm gonna go to great lengths to keep both since I can save the additional money and they might have quite an impact on my life.

I'm guessing the target people were not the best paid workers in Germany but still, saving €1200 per month is a lot more than the average of €450 ("According to a survey conducted in 2020 in Germany, the average monthly savings among the population amounted to 451 euros."). So if they were an average family that had a job and saved €450, with the "UBI" they just managet to triple their savings over a period of three years! Of course people won't quit their jobs, they're not stupid.

Overall it shows absolutely nothing on UBI but maybe it shows something on human psychology and rational behavior.

I think you should take a good look at your comments, cause if I lack humility you are doing exactly the same and worse. I'm being called "petulant, indignant, arrogant" and so on... I don't recall calling you anything like that.
I'd prefer people to criticize the features of a website rather than saying "this text was written by LLM, you can't even bother to write your own text". The feedback you are providing is not constructive, it's simply meant to troll a piece of text and red flag it as "AI-generated". Either way, I'm apologizing for my comment.

I am not sure if I agree with his conclusion, but some economists are of the opinion that countries in Northern Europe used the euro as a political tool to protect their own internal markets by making goods produced in the poorer countries of the Eurozone less competitive. If a country’s government could previously deflate their own currency to make their exports more attractive, they cannot do it anymore since they joined the Eurozone.

>There is support for UBI from socialists too. The opposition comes from the "centre - people whose main concern is maintaining the status quo.

Yeah, almost like that MLK guy knew what he was talking about. Changes from the original quote will be italicized

"I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the economic moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the poor's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the libertarian or socialists, but the economic moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the poor to wait for a “more convenient season.”
> If half of healthcare workers quit on the spot, that would lead to a societal crisis. But maybe it would also force the employers to fundamentally change the space, in order to not lose their employees.

In a capitalist society, wages would rise and conditions will improve as people are willing to pay as much as needed for health care.

The problem is that in the current rent-seeking economy (capital gets all the money while work is worth very little) all that money is redirected to the owners of middleman companies that add nothing to the economy. Produce no services nor products. Our current system is very inefficient and cannot last as it is today.

To increase wages and improve the situation of most workers will assure increased productivity and citizens well-being. It is a no-brainer. But it is not easy to implement as the people in power profits handsomely with the current bad situation.
Their goals are similar. There’s lots of different ways of achieving similar ends. I’ve seen a lot more paid commercials from Israel side, but a lot more posts using Palestine’s side talking points.

In that vein, TBH I find it hard to square a post celebrating famous
British humour on a site where any humour, whether good or in poor

calling hypocrisy, just pointing to an odd juxtaposition of values.

I'm over 50 and need reading glasses as well as distance glasses. I actually find working in the Quest 3 better than a laptop in many ways. The balance betweeen (virtual) screen size and focussing distance seems to be easier to balance. With a laptop the distance sweet spot for vision isn't always the same as the comfort sweet spot for posture. I could probably optimize my desk setup to improve this - but the point of a laptop is freedom from being chained to a desk.

If I could get a remote keyboard/trackpad with a better range then I wouldn't need a laptop at all but currently I also use a laptop and Chrome Remote Desktop when I need text entry or a regular mouse.

Not GP but I use Virtual Desktop with decent home Wifi so I can max out the quality settings.

(I can even work remotely if both sides have very fast broadband)

One caveat - this is an alternative to using a laptop and my eyesight is somewhat flawed due to middle age. If you're a 20-something with perfect vision and an addiction to 4k screens then this is probably a step down. For me it's on par with my non-VR experience.
Ha ha - just found this. Thanks for posting. Happy to answer questions if people have them!
That's... not very confidence-inspiring.

Something like the SiA471DJ comes in the same pinout and package, has almost 1/10th the on-resistance, and over 10x the current rating. Moreover, its datasheet does not have such a lengthy disclaimer about its abilities:

If I were in the same situation I'd choose that part for a replacement --- sources online show it's basically the same price, and why replace it with the same failure-prone part just to risk it doing the same thing again? This isn't even a high-frequency application, it's just a power switch.

>> Investing in the stock market is far more common in the US compared to the EU for the average person (something like 60% versus 15% of people in the EU).

Is this accurate? For example, 80% of the UK has a pension and those are invested (partially) in stocks. Unsure how this works across the rest of Europe but 15% seems really low.

>> The EU is bigger than the US in population terms, but when it comes to raising funding for a new startup it’s hard to look far beyond the borders of your own small country

Completely agree with this. As much as the EU is a single market, in a lot of ways it falls short. Even if you're in some of the larger capitals you still end up looking for funding within your country. What do you think the solution is? Is the problem language? The completely different tax systems in each country? The spread of things (e.g. less concentration in one or two cities the way tech is in the US)?
Well, yeah, or else they'll release software with memory leaks, which could become a dependency of some big project and bring down some important things and have real effects on some other people.

Or, yeah, because if my child can access streaming without a child lock, they may not recover from what they see.

Looks like we should protect each other as much as we can, using UI!
I think that would be pretty bad UI for people who actually use more than one profile, as a) it'd be very easy to use accidentally use the wrong profile and b) it's not super easy to switch the profile when your within one (and making it easy probably lands you at the current design).

At the same time, the existing one is fine for people (like me) who only use one -- as GP says, on a TV it's just a double confirm, if designed well. That said, for accounts that only have a single profile, I'm not sure why you'd show the select in the first place. Hide it by default, show it when the user creates a sub profile. DOS didn't have a login prompt.
>There is no "what if I accidentally clicked no but want to reverse that decision, where do I go" problem.

Yes there is, you now can't find the setting, because it doesn't exist, and you need to wait for it to reappear based on some unknown trigger.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
Apologies for the inconvenience — the issue has now been resolved.
I think it would certainly redistribute wealth from going into the pockets of the top 10% since they'd have to make their workers' jobs more enticing or get out there and do it themselves.

Global fertility seems to be at 2.3. We are in no danger of dying out, at least on the basis of fertility.
Actually I would enjoy a low tech, less integrated and connected experience.

I like interacting with nature, people more than swiping in an app.

I like old tramways in Lisbon more than flying taxis. I like small Greek buildings and even baroque and neoclassical architecture more than glass and metal buildings and skyscrapers.
You could take a normal laptop and remove the screen.
I was wondering the same. I’m not in this industry, but perhaps rockets are not typically given human names, so it’s a joke? Also, it’s spelled Venessa rather than Vanessa, so maybe it’s humorous because of the misspelling.

> Well, that’s the thing. It kind of does. And these days there’s an argument to be made that the world doesn’t value children enough. As long as fertility is below 2.1 that’s objectively true. It means we’re dying out.

We, as in humanity, are not dying out. While statisticians observe sinking fertility rates globally [1], reproduction is still going strong. In fact, humanity is still growing.

Layoffs are for companies to reduce the size of their workforce and lower operating costs, skill distribution remains the same – there are various exceptions to ensure this.

If some employees are underperforming they should already be on their way out. That also is a process protected by law (no at-will employment here), otherwise layoffs would just be an excuse to expedite firings without going through the necessary steps. In short, being employed assumes you can perform at a satisfactory level, which makes sense to me. The flipside is that hiring is a much bigger commitment as people are not disposable.

Voluntary severance packages are usually offered ahead of layoffs, and include compensation based on years worked, so things can balance out a little.

The whole regulations are more about the social impact. Younger employees have an easier time re-arranging their lives and finding new jobs, are less likely to apply for welfare, and still have time left to switch careers, so this benefits everyone.

Monty Python was hardly the only show that featured men dressed as women. Drag has actually been part of British entertainment for a long time. And, honestly, I don't really see the big deal, as long as it's not done with a hateful agenda.

Little Britain's poor taste jokes would've happened regardless of Python, because of its centuries long history of crossdressing.

Many of their takes also involved kicking back against society. Put a man in a woman's position and suddenly the things women endured daily become absurd. Have a man make a crass suggestion towards another man like an asshole would to a woman, and suddenly it becomes absurd and weird. In isolation those events could be considered homophobic, but between an animated politician eating the queen and a farmer explaining that his sheep are flying into trees to nest, I don't think such pessimism is warranted.

My take watching Python is that the actors very much knew that misogyny and homophobia are stupid as a concept. They didn't shy away from portraying society as it was (and unfortunately, still is), but they weren't necessarily trying to take anyone down.

The fact many Python sketches are offensive these days says more about how society has aged than Python, in my opinion. When Python has a man in a dress, it's just a silly character, but when in modern media it has become necessary for such things to be a statement for (or, even worse, against) basic human rights.

I think the strength and weakness in Python is that they'd make fun of anything and anyone. That include sensitive topics that haven't changed as much as they should have in the last century.
Oh, sweet! I really like the faithfulness to the original subject, while still being useful with a mouse.

I was actually going to write a theme for a project I'm working on that is meant to be styled like an inventory terminal from an auto parts store circa 1995, which was all some kind of TUI, so your theme is a great inspiration!

I don’t know about valuing kids - maybe they are valued enough, in a very direct sense.

But, as a parent of three kids, it’s very very obvious that modern western society is not really made for bringing up children in a good way. I could list multiple reasons, but IMO the most important one is that raising children with 1-2 parents, and not as a tribe or colocated big family, is super hard and a non-stop grind. It’s not possible to retrofit this kind of support with government mediated interventions, like gratis kindergarten, financial support, etc. You are always the first and last in line, as a typical, western parent. I can totally understand anyone who doesn’t want that kind of constant stress and often unhappiness in their lives.
Interesting. I used to have problems using such apps on LineageOS due to their dependence on this Google Push Messaging service (don't remember what it's called) and also dependence on Google Maps services.

(Grab is like Uber/Bolt but used in different regions of the world.)

Camera quality of LineageOS was really bad.

A voyage was the catalyst for switching to iPhone as this seemed back then the best option to LineageOS and I couldn't risk not being able to use such logistically relevant apps.

Especially in Asia you have to be ready to install and use whatever app is required and not being able to might be seriously handicapping.
That’s great to hear and Anubis seems cool!

These days she's independent of the field financially, and has been pretty forthright about condemning bad behavior within it. It's inevitable that insiders will turn on her, because she turned on them. They being angry about it doesn't mean anything by itself, you'd need to decide if her points are legitimate or not without reference to those she's criticising.

Everyone loves their car, but hates everyone else's cars. Remember, your car is transport, everyone else's cars are traffic.

Saying "people love cars" is false. Some people love cars. Those are the ones doing their own work/maintenance/restorations etc and just spending time in the garage with their cars. A few more people love driving, they don't just love cars for their own sake, but they will go and just drive for fun. But most people don't do any of that. They just use cars as part of their boring, routine lives.

You might as well say US people fucking love washing machines or knives and forks.

Yeah it's really great, before switching to GrapheneOS I used LineageOS for years so battery life is already good in that case. But the whole access control, and checking every few months which apps are hardly used is just super practical. I don't do online banking on my phone though, I guess for people who do it's not feasible. The only thing I don't like is that it only works with Google Pixels
This looks really cool! Thank you for building this and it just works.
Seems like a great idea, but I'd be nice if the project had a simple description. (and not use so much anime, as it gives an unprofessional impression)

This is what it actually does: Instead of only letting the provider bear the cost of content hosting (traffic, storage), the client also bears costs when accessing in form of computation. Basically it runs additional expansive computation on the client, which makes accessing 1000s of your webpages at high interval expansive for crawlers.

> Anubis uses a proof of work in order to validate that clients are genuine. The reason Anubis does this was inspired by Hashcash, a suggestion from the early 2000's about extending the email protocol to avoid spam. The idea is that genuine people sending emails will have to do a small math problem that is expensive to compute, but easy to verify such as hashing a string with a given number of leading zeroes. This will have basically no impact on individuals sending a few emails a week, but the company churning out industrial quantities of advertising will be required to do prohibitively expensive computation.
