People make mistakes all the time, hopefully it's mistakes they learn from. You can't simply fire someone for being incompetent, unless it's so bad and beyond the pale.

I pretty much break the display of my phone or the display's connector breaks. There's now a yellow vertical line on my phone. Maybe I should replace it whole before the display connector went kaput. Replacing just the display mea

No connector? USB-C connections are pretty useful and are not at the mercy of unreliable wifi connection and wonky inductive charging or lack of inductive charging infrastructure. Do I want my phone to not break and still work even if it&#x

The concept you're looking for is desirable difficulty , not too hard but not too easy either.

I don't know what to tell you. Georgism was contemporary to the industrial revolution. The book Progress and Poverty , as described by wikipedia "investigates the paradox of increasing inequality and poverty amid economic and tec

The orbital are literally scarce resources, as are radio spectrum. If you have people just doing whatever, you'll get Kessler syndrome, especially as our orbits are filled with more satellites each year. Similarly you just can't h

Nope. Land is important because everything rest on it. Even radio spectrum and orbitals can be regarded as a form of 'land'. Georgism doesn't exist in a vacuum. It wasn't like they were formulated during when the time wh

Before the industrial revolution, even though money existed, "wealth" really meant "land" rather than "capital". The industrial revolution didn't really change anything about land. It's still a fund

Most of our stories portrayed AI as a threat, most famously SkyNet. Also, I would be cautious about making predictions about the future.

Who will be able to afford all of this if they're not getting paid?

Less car usage means less money spent on car related infrastructure and better flow of existing traffic which leads to further economic growth as space freed up can be repurposed for something else which lead to increased tax revenue.

Tax cars further. They take up way more space than the average pedestrian and required more infrastructure to support and maintain.

Freedom of speech is not freedom from consequence. Obviously we shouldn't start riots, but if you make hate speech, there may be consequences accordingly.

Everyone believe they need copyright, therefore it is the status quo.

To me, buy in is necessary, especially when they will eventually become adults and free to make their own decision and it will be much harder for them to control their addiction especially when there is no more guardrail or when you no long

We should have our judges confirmed by a randomly selected jury.

I would think you need a buy-in from these kids that they agree these influences are harmful and that they don't want it in their lives or at least moderated it. Otherwise it's an uphill battle to regulate those influences.

Well, it's true, as you have admitted. It's a legal weapon because if people use patents, you should have a patent portfolio just to be able to conduct business if money is no object. I'll concede that it's not really vi

It's not needed at all. Valid prior art is a defense to patent infringement because it outright invalidates their patent. Full stop. That's the best leverage out there. It's better than being able to prove non-infringement,

It's just a way to get a seat at the negotiation table. If they sue you, you could potentially countersue them for patent infringement. Yes, it's all a bunch of bullshit, but that is what you get when you have a flawed notion of h

Being well-rounded and having exposure to a bunch of topics is valuable to an extent. However, in my experience most of the people making a real difference in the workplace and academia are not particularly well rounded. You can only prog

92% of adults know how to read to varying level.[1] The number, while high, is not satisfactory. Clearly, we also want adults to be functionally and not pass a super low bar of being able to read a sentence which 92% does not care to disti

We shouldn't need crazy people to push the boundary. Rather, the crazier you are, the more likely you will flame out. People who are "weird" and yet are entirely functional are the best of both world and a much rarer combinat

Standardized tests are tool for systems to be able to compare and work toward a uniformity of outcome. Expecting it to help anything beyond that is a foolish errand. Public schools need to educate million of people each years with differing

I don't think college teaches people how to learn, and if they do it's only by accident. There's a body of knowledge on how to teach and how to self educate and it takes a long time for systems to incorporate these knowledge.

I missed out on theater and improvisational comedy only because I pigeonholed myself as a computer nerd and engineering type and almost nothing else. I found that I have a certain knack for it and really enjoyed performing.

Boeing also deleted a lot of software code they deemed not necessary despite being a hard requirement. They also shouldn't had an issue to the point that NASA lost confidence in Boeing. We all make mistakes, but some mistakes are being

We've tried a few decades of fat positively and just pretending that being fat isn't a personal failure, and just a symptom of society. Fat positivity? It's not really a popular position, and is in fact regarded as a loathe

Sure, there's a lot of value. There's also a lot of slops and negative value. These days I don't even use wikipedia that much even though I googled things constantly. GDP is a very gross measure of things to be sure, but also
