Their job is not what you think it is. It's to maintain the status quo no matter how corrupt or abhorrent it is. The word enforcement says it all.

Not while we allow gangsters to rule the world.

No it doesn't, if it isn't safe already it shouldn't be on the road and needs a recall.

I think that level of historically fidelity was a historical anomaly. We can see it through history where the narrative is mostly dominated by the great power of the time, yet I'm sure there was far greater diversity than what we can s

It strange how the time of day so drastically effects the votes on these comments. They are positive when it aligns with the global east, but then swings negative once the time of day reaches the global west, like clock work :)

Many countries have been forced into mono culture plantation crops by IMF and World Bank, due BS globalisation comparative advantage policies. There is plenty of arable land it's just devouted to non staple production. And so they&#x27

Science is a method nothing more, it's not truth it's only agreed upon consensus. The problem is that consensus can often be purchased. History is littered with so called scientific consensus bought for a pretty penny.

The problem is that we are looking to these systems to solve human social problems. No matter what techno wizardry we put in place if we don't have core values that respect human life, including freedoms such as privacy then it will be

I really thought after FTX people would start to wise up to these tulips. Most people don't care about anonymity, the acceptance of visa, Mastercard, banking and mass surveillance shows this to be true. Cryptos is just utter fantasy, l

Housing is another clear example of governments being solely concerned with continued enrichment of the few at detriment of the many. Solutions nearly always seem to come when these oligarchical groups can be bypassed. I've had to move

Like MLs, like Lisps etc power is trumped by convenience. Whether it is syntax convenience of C, Java, C# Or batteries included convenience of Python. It's a crying shame because we are stuck with the primitive expressiveness of 3rd ge

Every significantly complex software is a domain specific language with it's own ontology. It just that some programming languages make it feel like you only have nouns, and must use some alien syntax.

It's simple, extortion, theft and murder. Like any Mafia. Read some Michael Hudson and you can start to understand how the empire was built.

I've used the CLPFD library, really quite cool. It fits very naturally into a prolog program.

As opposed to the legal bribery in democracy, it turns into an oligarchy, it always does. This is known to be true in the past and observable truth in the present.

It's all a scam. None of it lines up with touted aims. The cost in so called green house gases to mine, refine and transport the materials will far dwarf whatever is saved of 7% or so of CO2 that comes from personal transport (includin

And after 30 years many of us have seen enough corporate propaganda to weary of any so called technological promises.

This filter already exists, don't turn on the computer, don't talk to anyone, lock yourself in a dark sound proof room. I'm not even being all that facetious. Every interaction, every book, every news article is full of cover

This is such bogus malarky. How is it possible to seriously write an article like this without once mentioning money, from what I saw. The value of the money commodity today is not tied to productivity. How much effort does it take to make

Yeah, they rarely go around saying, "I'm the 1%".

Exactly, and it's not that them are actually an evil cabal in control. I feel it's just that they act in concert to guard their own selfish desires. And they could be any of us, there is very few humans that can remain selfless. I

They colluded to enrich themselves without end. Seeking monopoly rents and pushing infrastructure, social and environmental costs on to others to increase the margin. We allow the rewarding of truly psychotic behaviours, there is a reason w

Is there not a way to use the common law system. If the common view is that these agreements are an undue encroachment upon and individuals right to use their time as they see fit, then the cases would be thrown out and potentially some leg

If, and I think it's a big if then it will be the same as every technological advance in recent times. The individuals currently with money and power with monopolise it and impoverish the rest of us. It has happened so many times why w

Well it seems many are hell bent on war so it would hardly be surprising that more infrastructure is deliberately sabotaged.

As real as any math, which is not so much. It's imaginary, just like USD. The lack of link to the physical reality which we all share is in my opinion why all these fiat systems are prone to some form of perversion.

Its a ridiculous statement. Nature, if that's what you want to call it has to all intents and purposes infinite energy. Our ability to release energy from matter is what we have built upon.

They had means, motive and opportunity, and they even said that would do it. When pushed Biden said, "we'll put an end to it (Nord 2)". And the number of hit pieces against the journalist in question is telling. Using wholly
