The biggest problem facing Amazon workers isn't unionization. It is the not having alternatives to earning a similar wage in more humane conditions.

That's not necessarily a given. To be fair we also technically live in a democracy with a democratic process. Many would argue that the views of the majority are not reflected.

I think it does matter. This is an issue that is affecting black people. White people who are protesting should be doing it to support them, not to hijack their movement and running it how they see fit.

The fringe elements are blending into the crowds. The poor protestors are getting gassed. Let's not create this narrative that the majority of protestors are out to loot and damage property. They're not. And most of the ones who a

The media and the government are both very clear that there are fringe elements (both far-left and far-right) infiltrating the protests and trying to derail the efforts. So everyone is going out of their way to separate protesting from loot

Yes. The system is inherently unproductive. Pumping more money into it like giving a sedentary person more calories and expect their physique to end up like an athlete's. But you can also pump that money into the hands of people and ha

On second thought, I was wrong. Believing in fairy tale magical solutions without caring to understand the complexity of underlying problem, is a quintessential human characteristic. So I correct myself, believing in socialism is very natur

Except you can't really have such a thing as a large group of people have an equal say in control of anything, c.f. democracy. It is the mechanics that are the issue. If you are talking about workers being "shareholders" then

The 'ism' is about control, not about benefit. Philosophically I agree that we need a better system the benefits everyone, and I agree with the gist of your comment. However saying we need socialism skips over the most important p

Unless they're stuffing their wealth in mattresses that wealth is spread everywhere in economy. Also a lot of that wealth is based on market value of assets which ebb and flow and inflate and crash. It is not based on sucking cash out

Did he do everything to maximize the position of the corporation and the shareholders or did he act mainly in his own interests as a shareholder? There are no overt acts, I agree, but that also means a good DA can convince a judge that cer

Nothing you've said contradicts my assertion that consumer demand drives production, which causes emissions. Nothing that I've said contradicts your point that management and regulation matter. You're subscribing to an either

We're beyond incentives. We need taxation, aka carbon tax. My point was that the "capitalist" is not running that production line in isolation, it is the end consumer demand that drives that pipeline. So yes consumer demand i

Carbon neutrality is a necessity, as is population reduction. I am not advocating for one over the other. Either alone will not work, not short term certainly not long term.

I agree that it can be reduced, my point was that it is directly tied to consumer demand and human activity. It will still be a none-zero number after reduction. No business is out there emitting methane for shits and giggles. As I said els

Not really possible. Ultimately it is human demand that is driving climate change. Even if you have a magical technology that cuts all emissions today by 25% -- which would be truly magic -- you only need a 25% growth* in population to offs

Per the article, most of the sites were landfills, dairy farms, and natural gas facilities. All of those are directly controlled by consumer demand.

The whole point of USB is reduced wiring. Side channel interrupt would not have made sense. "Polling" doesn't involves the host CPU, adds no latency. It is done by the USB controller, which sends poll packets to the device. T

Huawei sells 5G equipment. Think the equivalent of routers, switches but for cellular network. If they have backdoors then China can intercept and disrupt communication across many countries. That's the concern in a nutshell.

You can implement all the encryption/authentication at the application layer, depending on your use case. USB can stay as-is. In theory sniffing attacks can extend to anything. The basic problem is that: 1) All electronics create EMI.

Professional setup has much tighter tolerance than 3dB. I was using 6dB as an example. Usually you're trying to kill peaks that are 10-20dB over. This kind of debugging is very routine. You do it manually with E/H field probes and

This is useful when you fail your EMC testing. You have a baseline measurement and you're looking at relative change. For example you may have be over the limit by 6dB at 430 MHz. You would take a reading using this setup, and normaliz
