You're already doing it. There are legitimate arguments on both sides of these issues. Couching the Outgroup's opinion on X as "erasing" or "killing" or "dehumanising" just precludes understanding. Re

CEOs who resign in disgrace do not actually do that well. Even on PR terms alone, it's a bad look to hire one as your CEO, even if they can make a good case that they "fell on their sword" rather than actually caused the cata

Think about individual incentives rather than of the role, though. I agree with your assessment, except that an engineer has the incentive to make the product work as specified. A salesperson is given their goals by management, and they are

Big agree. Discover Weekly went from something I was excited about every Monday morning on the train, to something I forget to check most weeks. There's a handful of songs it puts on every few weeks, for literally years now, despite me

There is not much evidence that it does any unique harm when you calorie-match it to regular sugar.

1) I always read this publication's name as "Frontier Sin". 2) "Added sugar intake was positively associated with ischemic stroke and abdominal aortic aneurysm, although the highest risks of most outcomes were found in t

What is the proposed mechanism for Mars getting the outcomes to be positive? I understand the implied incentives, but either there is fraud in the paper, or the methodology should reveal how the scientists contrived false outcomes. Otherwis

The people who consume dark chocolate (harder to overeat, and suggests less of a sweet tooth) are less likely to have Type 2 Diabetes. What a surprise!

Amazing, but surely you don't need to keep getting the shot once you've got HIV.

Almost correct, except sugar consumption has been declining for decades. The peak was prior to 2000 IIRC

I feel like I didn't know anything more by the end of the comment then at the start. Can you word it again but more clearly? It currently reads like a signal of what you have memorised, rather than an effort to increase the knowledge o

Not everyone has to do everything. Not everyone wants to (Openness), or could reasonably do a good job of respecting the host culture and environment (Agreeableness and Conscientiousness).

Another, less pleasant way to say this: You don't want everyone to travel - many people don't have a sense of respect and "light foot" that it takes to travel to foreign places without degrading or damaging them.

Brain drain isn't what keeps poor countries poor - if only it was so simple. India would ban out migration in an instant if that was the key to US levels of GDP.

No, it's to offer them a chance to make a lot of money in exchange for a lot of work. No one is forced to work there and they are not taken advantage of. Any of them are free to start their own channel and outcompete him! It's lit

The bigger the company gets, the more separate it becomes from its founder/face/whatever. Inevitable. (Although this document clearly sets out that this distinction should be fought at every step, so that counts against what I&#x2

Unions are no longer necessary. That's not a value judgement on my part, just a conclusion from decades of declining union membership, with no correlating uptick in starvation or massive reduction in wages. (You may argue for wage stag

The "best YouTube" video is not whatever you think it is, but rather what it is. You can go see what are the most watched videos. How many are softcore porn? (Let's exclude music videos because they have always included that

In the long run it is true. Name a company which has prospered, over many years, without rendering benefit to its customers.

Sure, but a lot of people are besides brain-dead slop-consumers. That doesn't really challenge the proposal about regulating content. (I personally recoil at the proposition of China-like content moderation but whatever.)
