"Either a fair and open discussion needs to happen about these things or they shouldn't be part of a workplace at all." Fully agree, where "these things" also include topics the typical activist may not agree with.

Even wilder to call it right-wing, given that I'm a moderate leftist in a social democracy (western Europe). Makes me pretty close to a "commie". Pushing back against government overreach is now also right-wing, as is defendi

I agree that you need a solid reporting structure and complaint handling. Likewise you need a solid case. It's a two way street. Preventing counter arguments is NOT fine, that's the issue with generic claims. You can read in the a

If anybody would say "bring yourself to work" my first response would be "are you really sure"? They're collective lies. Things we tell each other to make us feel better about ourselves. Same for "open and hone

The simplest solution from a company perspective is to not hire activist type employees. It just never ends well. You may very well find the activist's point valid and just, but it still won't end well in most cases. Other than th

I think the fundamental issue in the digital world is that you compete with the entire damn world. When I open a bakery, competition is limited to just a few miles of space. Provided I provide a decent product, I can exist. This idea allows

None, and that's indeed the issue. You can't even see you're in a tab as the entire concept is in no way communicated.

Agreed, and a great alternative is chicken. Delicious, very versatile to cook with and an ecological foot print that is 4 times smaller compared to beef.

Natural and cultural are not the same thing. Culture is made up, nature is not. Overconsumption of meat can lead to bodily issues as does a lack of particular plant foods. Particular meats are processed/digested in different ways, and

If employees can get away with doing little work, that's a management problem. That still doesn't make it an easy problem to solve though. To take the typical scrum/agile method as our context... First and foremost, you'

You can debate syntax forever but the semantic web will never rise without the proper incentives. Not only is there no incentive for industry to participate in it, there's in fact an anti-incentive to do so. Say you've build a wea

They're supposed to be restrictive as to not confuse the user. An in-app browser isn't there to give you a full browsing experience, it's there to do a quick web-only task that somehow cannot be done in the native app itself.

I'm not familiar with the Instagram signup flow but it may very well be that the user did opt-in at one point. The opt-in would of course only be valid if there's also a clear "reject" option.

Same issue when your website opens a link in a new tab on mobile: many mobile users have no idea how to get back. The back button does not work and they don't know how to close/switch tabs. They're barely aware of the concept

What he implied with the term "conspiracy theory" in relation to inflation is that there's a vast mismatch between reported CPI and experienced CPI, hence the reported CPI is a conspiracy theory or corrupted. Typically statem

I generally agree that CPI "feels" to be consistently lower compared to what actual people experience. But you can't have a meaningful discussion about it if you do not list the weight of the price hike in your expense patter

My father has worked in the meat industry his entire life and said that over the decades, he was shocked how unnaturally cheap meat has become. I'm in no way anti-meat, but a lot of people have normalized eating a huge amount of meat p

Thank you for your comment to restore my sanity. It's absolutely mind blowing how seemingly progressive people cheer when authority is rapidly expanded at the cost of privacy and personal freedom.

"what seems to be the most relevant documents won't have all the exact words" In which case it isn't relevant. I typed those words for a reason, any result not containing all three is not relevant by definition.

The dutch word "prestatiemaatschappij" is fitting here, meaning "performance society". It suggests that life is fast, nothing but duties, must-dos, which when fully internalized will also apply to leisure. Relaxing is a
