This is a strange topic for HN.

You essentially just linked me a document that admits they have to fudge the data to get the result they are looking for because the actual readings don't support their conclusion. It also makes no mention of the fact that Every 25 to

This is a very good point and I agree. We are actually in a 300M year low as far as CO2 goes. The rise in CO2 is arguably not even a negative thing.

Geo-engineering is serious stuff and has been banned by the UN if I'm not mistaken.

My friend, NOAA and IPCC have been proven to purposefully manipulate the data to achieve their political agenda. These orgs build all their charts with Models on theorized data even for dates that have already passed. Their models do not fa

Don't worry. The globe has been in a cooling period for the last 18 years despite a 6x increase in emissions. The only people saying we have a climate crisis on our hands are the political organizations that wish to implement taxes and

The law isn't the only way to solve this problem. Just because I agree there is a problem doesn't mean I must support the blunt force of legislation to fix it. It stands to reason that outward imbalance begins with inward imbalanc

Hmm yeah, that's an interesting point. I've always be curious what happened there.

I actually wouldn't advocate for anti-trust action, I'm just pointing where there is perceived imbalance caused by the dominance these tech companies have.

Thanks for pointing that out. Updated the post to be more specific.

Read the class action lawsuit recently filed against Google by James Damore. That at least in part answers this question. Also check out Project Veritas. edit: made more specific.

I get the impression they bought the company expecting Neistat would allow them to tap into his vlogging audience to spread their political agenda so he would become something like a new-wave news anchor. I expect it went something like thi

I tend to agree and I always got the impression that Casey was far more motivated by his vlogging than running beme.

A company with a brain hires a lawyer to look at the issue when an employee expresses concern that the company is breaking laws with their hiring practices. Firing someone who expresses those concerns makes the problem infinitely worse as w

That is how it works but punishment under civil law is based on damages so there is no punishment if there are no damages even if found guilty of breaching the TOS.

This isn't a step toward anything. This is a ruling of laws as they exist today - and an obvious one at that.

Google expects people to work with people who openly hate white men. Just take a look at some of their twitter feeds. Damore expressed no such opinion of women he just has a broader explanation for under-representation in tech other than se

That isn't an argument. People who call for genocide can be charged with a crime. There is no reason to remove the content from public record until there is a conviction, and even then there is an argument to be made to leave the conte

It already is, just some people want want to extend the law to force people to think & behave the way they want them to. American law covers everything necessary for every individual to live a civilized life where they can pursue happin

Are you saying facebook is ignoring court orders from the German authorities to have content removed?

People are obsessed with this topic because they are looking for justification to steal from those wealthier than them. Its textbook Marxism.

This would not help. Land in of itself is not that valuable. What has value is what people develop/produce with the land. Or location to those who have developed their land. Property rights are better thought of as extensions of human

Providing capital to those with talent IS providing value. Thats why entrepreneurs exchange a portion of their company for the capital - capital has value and helps the entrepreneur. Money doesn't appreciate in value by doing nothing.

With UBI everyone will have more money but overall production would drop which is the only meaningful way to improve peoples lives. So people would be worse off because prices would adjust to the decreased supply and the increased demand of

What do you mean by "allow"? You're getting into sketchy territory there.

In other words, the 500 wealthiest people added a trillion dollars of value to the economy this year. Edit: you all that are down-voting need to learn how the economy works.
