Perhaps it is naturally occurring and not artificially reproducible (or possible for US to reproduce). Why should we assume that it is? Because we have reproduced other things? That doesn't necessitate our ability to create everything

OK but I'm saying I wasn't miserable and it was a better job than working retail to me. I agree it would be great to divide resources and labor in a more intelligent way I'm very open to ideas, but for now the reality is tha

What? You seem to be misunderstanding my statements. My first points were about the streetview product. Scooping up passwords is obviously not the intent of that product, maybe that was an error or they changed the core product at some poin

Street view is debatably invasive. I understand this might seem hand wavy to someone really concerned about privacy issues, but 1.generally speaking I would think VERY few people care about an image of their property being on street views.

It is actually possible to operate without relying on Google or any other big tech firm. Who is forcing you into these privacy dilemmas? All of their services are a choice you are making. You don't need to accept any of it if you don&#

I also did this and have younger friends who still do. I much preferred that job to a customer service one where I had to deal with angry people all day. I was also sorting via zip codes and enjoyed the physical work... I don't underst

That's something you just can't predict. No one knows what people will be thinking "generations from now". You seem to be projecting strongly.

You refuse to accept that there's a possibility of something in a domain you have no understanding of... That sounds like a very illogical refutation in itself

This data is interesting, but in the blog post the judgment made about it(or heavily suggested) that it's due to stereotypes and discrimination is a very broad stroke and it can't all be attributed to that. Maybe that is a part of

'"White males are privileged" is a reasonable statement to make with plenty of evidence to support it.' Is it though? I think you're going to need to be a lot more specific than that to make a reasonable statement.

Fair enough, though I'd say discounting a raised price is a borderline case for regulation. That is obviously deceiving and dubious at best. As I said you might feel good getting that discount, but it's an illusory savings which i

Never said anything about policing PRICES... The sales pricing is dirty not illegal. Businesses should be free to price things however they want, but that doesn't mean certain sales pricing isn't a dirty trick. And it's DEFIN

Businesses can set prices however they want, but that doesn't mean anyone has to buy it. But when shady pricing and sales come in the consumer feels better because they think they're saving and don't realize they are being de

But this is placing a giant burden on the consumer to do legal level language analysis of a sales pitch. That's not going to happen, so that kind of language is taking advantage of the average person since they aren't going to do

It's a function of men being the main family provider for most of history, that's a fact not a toxic element of masculinity. Saying that has negatively affected people and assigning it a label is fine, but how is this issue relate

Except this isn't an area where there is toxicity related to gender roles. Women work as much as men do, and this CTO has an attitude that treats everyone equally. Where does the toxic masculinity enter this scenario? "a male empl

What does this attitude have to do with being male? They have children also. A woman could just as easily have this viewpoint and your anecdotal story doesn't provide any evidence to the contrary. Calling this toxic masculinity isn
