I suspect you're missing the forest for the tree, re labor theory of value.

I would posit the flip side actually, Marx's take that labor has inherent latent value, and its products are the sum of the latent value, which in no way correlates to market pricing is the type of infallible argument that postmodernis

You're conflating "equal" and "equitable". The latter of the two is along the lines of "fair" - a fully nebulous term in this context; its entire raison d'être is to push agenda narratives. The idea o

I'm pretty sure that's the point the parent was trying to illustrate. "Equitable pay" is a merely a political narrative for left leaning audiences - postmodernist talking points always require victims, after all.

Exactly which part of this is new evidence? What you wrote is the basis of the original conspiracy theory, that NTSB rejected. Also we have multiple recent events of a commercial jet being shot down by a contemporary AA system, in each of t

Would love to hear how - validated constraints on input/types/flow is one of the design objectives of Ada. In what way is Rust relevant here?

First thing that came into my mind when I read the title, there's a reason why even stuff like infotainment was being done by whatever QNX flavors. If i hit the unlock button, I really don't wanna have to wait because of some IO s

Really good point there - the overlap of multiple people on all those flights would be very unlikely.

I would bet a large amount of money what you mentioned is entirely false. The PA systems are built into the aircraft, where as wifi is an aftermarket addon.

This is the bamboozle argument that Tesla's been pushing since 2013 model S, while hiding the true cost with the warranty. A decade later, replacement pack for that car still runs you ~$20k, which makes model S cars disposable when the

There is about no way what you wrote can possibly be true; with 5x efficiency gain we wouldn't need a mountain of EV subsidies to get companies to manufacture them and people to buy them. If there was a net energy gain going to EV, the

Flip take : using social media to feign empathy for abstract contexts - ones that you actually have zero emotional connection to - is merely how left leaning people signal their bona fides.

This - the very same people that push far left collectivist ideas like the ones linked intentionally sidestep the fact that every single socialist set up had compulsory labor participation. The only difference is that with the latter set up

So this actually ends up being net benefit for the businesses in the area - having paid meters means there's actual turnover in the cars parked. Before the meter change in Chicago, it would be next to impossible to find a parking spot
