i agree with the tool analogy. However there's something different between using a tool, and outsourcing the entire content production by only specifying the end result. Whenever a customer ask me to develop an app, i don't consid

we ( the software industry ) have spent the last 60 years intruding in other people's job and automating most of their task using computers. Under the saying "it will remove the most boring parts of your activity, and let you focu

is it a correct understanding that svb actually has troves of money, but it's locked down in bonds noone wants because of their low return value ( yet unless the US treasury bankrupts, they will never default) ? It seems like a very sp

i did buy stocks in 2008 though, and that was my most profitable investment in my entire life. He may have had a point.

everytime i hear someone talk about redistribution i wonder if they're asking to have more money, or if they'd be happy if the redistribution made them poorer.

you've probably never worked in an average enterprise java shop. The religious refactoring of any kind of software to its most generic and decoupled design, under the name of "cleanliness", is quite impressive. it's quit

the bump between 2017 and 2022 is mostly around the 75 yo slice. That's the beginning of baby boomer generation. Meaning this generation has been retired for more than 10 years now. It's going to be 10 more rough years, until 2032

baby boomers are people born between 1945 and 1960. Meaning people between 63 and 78 yo. All of them are already retired, and the oldest ones are starting to die.

le néolibéralisme est une doctrine de critique radicale de la main-mise de l'état sur l'économie. La signification est la même en français. C'est ce que faisaient regan et thatcher, et ça n'a rien à voir avec les politiq

The reason bernard arnault is rich is partly because of tax cuts, but mostly because the luxury industry sells well internationally. The reason french people in general are poor is because france, as a country, is collapsing, because french

We are so far away from anything remotely looking like liberalism.. france has the worst of both worlds : a behemot of a public sectors, costing a fortune, but undergoing enough random budget cuts to make it also very bad at fullfilling it

"france has never been as rich in history". Which number are you talking about ? It seems like a pretty hard fact to demonstrate. If you look at the production of france-based international companies, then you're also includi

baby boomers aren't retiring, they're dying . The pension system has already been through its worst period and managed to not get too badly hurt. I really don't understand this reform. However for me to understand it, one wo

As a student, i remember very vividly that any potential imprecision in the question of the exam was the source of great confusion, especially since you couldn't ask the examinator for explanation (the test was supposed to be perfect).

There’s a problem with this quiz. why would question 100 have the special privilege of discarding all the other questions ? From a purely linguistic pov, this question 100 isn’t a question, it’s a meta-information about how you should reply

If the US were a sane democracy with a proven ability to have pragmatic and purely scientific debate on hot topic, i'd be following you. However, the topic is being highly politicized, and so i'm very sure the doctor and psycholog

It does sound like common sense to me though... I'm still completely astonished that doctors allow teenagers to undergo sex change surgery or chemical procedures before the age of sexual consent, or the right to vote. Either we conside

IMHO the 1950s and 60s were the pinacle of intellectual life ( at least in france). Students were actually "fans" of philosophical figures like jean paul sartre. The trendiest place for youth wasn't a nightclub or a gym. It w

i believe the first lockdown was justified, until we understood what that thing was. That is, 2 months in march/april 2020 in europe. All the rest was pure nonsense, and in large parts due to governments getting their inspiration from
