I don't think I understand what you meant by "expectations," and I don't know if you meant this comment to be anything but an ideological thought, but this is what I know: Capitalism runs off of inequality of all sorts.

While I found many of the author's assertions to be ideological predictions, this sentence made me happy: "So much depends on the balance of forces between capital and labour at the moment of its implementation." Historically

Sorry, that was the point I was trying to make as well: https://thecurrentmoment.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/product... The increasing gap between wages and productivity symbolizes growing exploitation — the inequ

So, to sum up... Our wages stopped rising in the 1970s, because: * Decreased demand for US workers — factories closing to move to other countries; technology replacing human labor; increased capitalist competition with a global economy cons

My keyword was "hardly," as in the capitalist class does not care about the climate. My intention was not to demonize individuals and generalize all people into two types (those who are rich and hate Earth and those who are poor

Despite the fundamental economic problems with this proposition listed elsewhere here, I'm just floored by the political implications: There is hardly such a thing as a "climate-concerned billionaire." Mostly there just exist

I don't know if it was what she was going for, but the faux-rust really makes it look cartoonish/surreal. I really like it.

You believe that HTML won't be deprecated by 2040, but JS will? You also believe archive.org won't make an effort to store JS files within that timeframe? The reality is that the modern web depends on JS, and the argument of depre

I don't know exactly what your definition of success is, but products of hyper-specialization do indeed make money. Etsy is eBay for home crafts, Twitch.tv is Justin.tv/YouTube/Ustream for video games. And of course there are

Visualizations like these certainly have their place, and I actually appreciate that the OP didn't offer commentary in this case. This graph acts as a blank canvas onto which people project their conversational biases. Each person has

Interesting. I would hope that the safety net is at least something like 90% successful, but I haven't done my studying at all. Thanks for your insight into exactly who falls through the net.

Ah, I understand now. Thank you for expanding — I agree with your criticism.

Because of their embracing of the free market, it's often accepted that China is not a communist nation (despite being led by a communist party). Actually, this situation is pretty much just capitalism at work. It really has nothing to

Sorry, I didn't mean to trample over your experience. I tend to focus on aggregate data which leads to ignoring nuances of the human condition. You're right about deployment size, but it's exciting to see those numbers growin

People tend to want to work, really. But to your point, many people can't find work that pays the money they need to survive, so they become depressed. Also, people often lose their jobs. There have been several studies/deployment

If I'm not mistaken, the OP is postulating an avoidance mechanism for the front ("victim") car, not the rear car. Indeed the rear car is at a higher risk of injury than the front car in read-end accidents.

I think Rust has promise as a web dev language. Here's a quick list of the key libraries currently in the ecosystem[1]. Up until now, I've only ever used interpreted, dynamic languages for web development. In contrast, Rust offers

I mostly agree with your analysis. As someone who is doing web development in Rust, what should I fear of missing from a language like Go or Java? Is it just an ecosystem thing? Java is a more popular option for web server development over

Are you unconvinced that an entirely homogeneous group is unwelcoming to people outside the group? Diversity in groups is perpetually self-limited by images like this. Marketers abuse this phenomenon to divide and conquer demographics. It&#

I respectfully deny your simplified definition of "hate speech" and reassert that history has decided that hate speech is to be prevented (unless we regress completely to a pre-civil rights society). Your supposed "justificat
