Everyone lost more than one year of their life. That alone outweights any benefit.

Of course. If you aren't competent enough to make good decisions, you have to make easy ones.

There is still no evidence for that.

No, that's not a lot. It's only 1%. Much less than the cost of lockdowns. Obviously less than 150% of the population gets infected in real life.

No. It's a blog post. End of story, I don't care who made it. Letting someone view a blog post is not a security risk, anyone who treats it as one is wildly incompetent.

This is a blog post.

It's pointless to argue that regulation is theoretically not necessary when it empirically is.

That is not what the article is about.

That would be awful considering how hard it is to measure a developer's output.

Pretty sure that's the origin.

The GPL gives developers an incentive to make their code free, which is better for the developer. It's therefore better for everyone.

If I make my code non-GPL specifically so other people can use it for profit, I effectively donated to a for-profit company. Why the hell would I do that?
43.
by anoncake 5y ago
Because that's what everyone(TM) does. Don't judge what makes sense based on what people do.

Not being able to afford an employee is obviously a valid reason to dismiss them. So is them refusing to work. But the scenario you describe is contrived anyway: Someone motivated enough to work hard won't randomly stop being so. The &

Allow employers to fire their employees without giving a cause for the first few months, giving them time to evaluate them. Problem solved.

I can't think of any country in which the employee has to justify why they quit.

It's how I understood it, and I don't think it's even ambiguous. If you say something is like the flu vaccine that implies you're referring to a property that vaccines in general don't have – you would just have sai

If you're from Monaco or Luxembourg, you absolutely have the right to live there. You can't force people to emigrate because they're poor, that's ridiculous. And moving from a high COL to a low COL area in the EU still a

Unfortunately, living standards differ too much within the EU for that.

So, none. Obviously there will always be some assholes, that should not determine policy unless it gets out of hand.

Possibly.

Ok, let's not use waterfall then.

Yes, there is a natural right to live where you're at home.

I can't argue with that, but if you kill something, calling the result death seems more appropriate.

What? Computers have been made commercially for decades.

When I paid with a semi-broken machine recently, I actually had to sign a slip. I think the machine just read my IBAN as if the chip was a magnet strip. The offline credit limits are more of an optimization.
