Great. Does 996 require the schedule that it implies? If so, respectfully, those excuses are moot.

So you want to work from home with top pay, top benefits, control over your assignments, control over Ai competition, and control over CEO salary. And you're couching this as the reasonable ask of oppressed labor and want to organize o

No, it's all a part of learning to read and understand language. If a child is having that much trouble with it, which would be unusual at grade-level, then the book is above their level. At that point, the child should probably be scr

I'm not a fan of basic income due to its inflationary effect that all-but neutralizes its spending power. I also think that the monetary system is inherently imperfect. To put it mildly. It is structurally unfixable and there is no pos

Reading could be less important if reaching one's IQ potential is less important. The content doesn't matter much, aside from basic literature references that constitute a part of English literacy. Though, relatively more complex

Knowing how to read is partial literacy and the first step toward literacy, regardless of anyone's lust for pretense. From an academic perspective most academics are illiterate.

To be generous, what this meant is either that you were below the reading level for the book or you misunderstand the core skill of reading and using style in the English language. Reading and understanding when rules are broken leads to kn

I disagree. Reading style ("flaws") is a major part of literacy. Even for people with learning disabilities. If you aren't on the reading level for a specific book, that's another issue.

This essay is stream-of-consciousness assertions and predictive guessing, if not wish-casting. Like all such essays, it can be refuted with two words: "I / We disagree" (with the logic). I don't agree with many of the as

The past two times I rented a car, I later received a bill from the rental company for supposedly unpaid tolls (plus fees) that I had most definitely paid. Renting a car with any liability exposure is a recipe for frustration. As far as I&#

The whining and flailing about threats to democracy are as sincere as their future level of contentment with Apple leaving the EU. I hope that it can and does, rather than allowing their product to be compromised by for-profit companies who

Your analogy isn't analogous. Apple is not a network, let alone a public one. There are scads of hardware options other than Apple.

Points for the most insane answer possible, no offense. No idea what you are talking about. Given that you work for the video game industry, perhaps your comment is in a sense perfect.

Your games are mediocre now. It's better to have a mediocre game that one can play, than an exceptional game that one can't. You're free to make games now, and yet it's most often hard to justify money for a game that is

Full employment transitioning to mean middle class job, or replacement income, would be wild. Point the way to the line for rigid economic class assignments.

Its rational to treat receipts like toxic waste. They need to create a law governing their toxicity, if for nothing else than almost everyone will continue to be unaware of it. Including cashiers. I don't know how people justify handli

Since you are from a country other than the one in which this site originates, and are asking where I am from, maybe first you should post where you are from. If your country did not have cops, who would enforce the laws that are enforced?

I mean, its not totally fine. It's psychotic (divorced from reality) and immature. I grant you that its not against the law. But see the fact that you have to skew the nature of police force in order to fake your point.
