Also, the time cost of preparation. I don't think there's a common understanding of how much time working class people have to spend on work. It's frequently on the order of 50-60 hours across more than one job, plus the atte

The people who claim that pay is based solely on supply and demand don't have a fully-developed conception of pay dynamics, historically or otherwise. Who you are - or rather, who is likely to be doing your job - absolutely helps deter

It's the same as any other higher-level skill: the faster you can perform the lower-level functions, the faster you can iterate. Your medium of expression also influences the speed of your thought. You'll notice that people who sp

It's also assumed that anyone not using the "low barrier to entry" platforms is a professional (or else, trying to make a professional product), which, ironically, raises the barrier to entry for anyone trying to get out of t

When we do, it's largely for the negative purposes of extending blame to all within a group, not obfuscate or diffuse blame, as is the case here.

Which is fine. But no one cares to humor the notion of a link between the lack of accountability for individuals within companies, when wrongdoing is apparent, with the way we scrub individuals from company interaction with the public? I do

If it's "not quite live," then they don't "already do that." There is value to being part of a first-class experience as it plays out, even as a second-class observer, that's over and above dealing with a

That depends on the tech. An egg's an egg, but you can get anyhing from 2012's top-of-the-line 65" for $400-$500, to an 8K OLED with a subwoofer built into the back or an attached sound bar or whatever for 5 figures.

I'm glad you came to this realization, I just wish it had come from one of the many cases where police severely injure or kill innocent people, rather than from a(n egregious) case of property damage.

This might be one of those "it's a feature, not a bug" dealies. Software is now subject to similar rules of decay and planned obsolescence as hardware and material objects. Guess you just have to go buy a new one under whatev
