An informed and empowered populace is a check against imperialism/colonization. Look at the opposition to the Vietnam war, for example. With the existence of the global internet, it has become much easier for citizens to track what the

I think I agree with Chomsky that humans can create a much less hierarchical society. Most of what he advocates for (reducing American imperialism) is a pragmatic step towards giving people in the countries of the world more direct control

Sorry, I forgot to mention that in my comment. In any case, I think there are many countries where the lower number of women in parliament is largely/partially due to systemic/social factors, as opposed to biological factors. EDIT

If, in a vacuum, men and women are equally viable as members of parliament, then a 50/50 split in parliament should be about the average in a society without bias on the part of the system or the people.

Cooperatives don't compensate everyone equally. For example, Mondragon cooperatives set wage ratios between manager wages and minimum wages: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mondragon_Corporation#Wage_reg...

If a cooperative is inflexible, couldn't another cooperative out-compete it? Provided the market is competitive, this doesn't seem like a big problem. One thing I have read is that cooperatives are less likely to grow into monopol

One alternative to capitalism from where we are now is a market economy of worker cooperatives. The market can still allocate resources, but the profit/surplus is distributed more equally (between the workers.) By encouraging the creat

I use them fairly frequently; I find them useful for establishing a causative relationship between clauses.

There exist more modern shells like Fish Shell and Oil Shell. I haven't used them, but they're probably nicer to use than POSIX shell. I'm sure they have pipes and stuff too.

The script does accept input from a pipe, just as Awk does. Specifying a delimiter seems like it should be doable. To answer your question, I mainly use this for counting lines of code: cloc --by-file --csv src/ | awk -F, '&

You would probably need a wrapper script to do this. The script could periodically clear the screen and call "barchart" with the new input data, re-rendering the chart from scratch. "barchart" is a very simple shell scri

Similar to the second quote, English speakers nowadays (at least where I live) say things like "I have the flu." In this phrase, I believe "the flu" refers to the ailment in general as opposed to what affects the speaker

The article mentions that car safety standards do not take pedestrian safety into account. Surely these standards should be based on a complete picture, even if the revised standards do not end up incentivizing smaller cars.

The article says the organism tries several approaches in succession to escape the unpleasant carmine. This still isn't super advanced behavior, but it's interesting considering the organism is single-celled.
