Oooh anecdata time; I can’t tell you how many times software engineers have just put libs in a dep file to avoid recreating the wheel. Reusing existing software is not equivalent to expecting users who want share pics to learn from 8088 on

That’s an overly reductive to prove a biased point. Typical users do not have the same motivations as programmers. The market for connected devices does not have to conform to your expectations. It’s really exhausting pointing out how your

What criteria are being used to determine this is what we want? People also want heroin and we use literal impact on society to curtail use. Freedom of reach is what we’re talking about limiting; right and left seem to both demand they have

Yeah I’m not going to read your mind. If you have something to say use your words to provide context, not vague insinuations. My point is Musk is in a position to be demanded of by government agents.

You’re admitting to not moving any goal posts whatsoever and just designing mathematical art that’s correct given existing constraints? So it’s good science to color within the lines not try to redraw them through new experiments we CAN con

Powell raised rates and said he was going to bring pain to households, layoffs ensue, but they have no bearing on the actual world. Ok, I’m done here.

Yes there is actually: https://www.nytimes.com/1997/02/27/business/job-insecurity-o... Not saying I agree with him 100% but Varoufakis makes similar claims after being in the room with IMF’s leadership.

An origin story that, if true, we weren’t there, means nothing. The justification to avoid change now is, often but not always, the impact it would have to employers ability to hire. It’s a problem that can be legislated away with public sc

Coupling healthcare to a job is exploitative. Those business owners are not owed anyone’s labor. If they can only survive given politically correct shackles on social agency, they should not exist as businesses.

Peddled Mitt Romney’s 1990 health plan in 2010? And what did numerous states do since to make it worse to slow/prevent change? Lawsuits. Being socially behind the rest of the world by 30-ish years is about right for the US. That it was

ERs do not turn people away, but much of ER traffic is due to skipping preventative care due to lack of financial resources or insurance. Refusal to avoid the outcome of more serious health issues by putting funding into it is because that

We never tore down patronage networks. Trickle down is essentially the same mechanics in the abstract, hidden by contemporary coded virtue signaling, and legal jargon. Families that benefited from 50s-60s social programs legislated them awa
