Just because somebody pays you 300 you are not necessarily worth it. And just because someone else doesn’t have the luck to be able to access such a job she’s not automatically worth only a 1/30 of you. The question is not what someone

You are right about consumption and throwaway society issues. At the same time, i dont believe the reason people can’t afford diapers is that they are expensive to protect the environment... plus creating lots of trash shouldn’t be a privi

The importance of this person is the part where i agree. But defining this person important is independent from the action of loading this person with guilt and financial, career relevant or social sanctions . That makes access to the impor

It’s also about how it broke. And who broke it is sometimes the person who can say a lot if not most about that. Therefore i don’t recommend teaching to never talk about tge person who took an action that lead to a disaster, but rather enco

I admit i don’t understand the details of that case fully and have no time to waste to change that... What i can say: To me it seems like oracle only bought Sun to squeeze out money from it’s “intellectual property” as hard as possible, giv
