I love the phones Nothing makes. And they are offering five years of Android updates and seven years of security upgrades on their upcoming Nothing phone 3.

> Technically, the provider only really cares that the ads played, not that you were paying attention to them. Advertisers do care about them. It's just that they don't have a way to track/measure it.

I believe the opposite happened. People found out that there are huge groups of people with wildly differing views on morality from them and that just encouraged more hate. I genuinely think old school facebook where people only interacted

It's a great indicator. Just not a guarantee.

1. You do realise that not every house help is on some work visa where the employer takes away their passport right? That's illegal. These things happen a lot in arab countries not just for house helps but engineers too. Wanting to hav

This is every job. The rich paying the poor to do something that will bring them value. Every work visa is slavery by your argument. The reason cleaning as a job icks people out is because they see it as a "lesser" job. I am fine

I think its going to happen. We keep underestimating China. US manufacturing is in the gutter. And it certainly doesn't help that we keep deporting our best minds back to China. They already have 5x the US population. They have a lot o

The selling point looks to be this: you get all the advantages of server side rendering but with the flexibility of react client side components as well. Being able to just use react components for composability on the server side is pretty

Lets extend your logic then: VAT is another thing that mostly just hurts the country introducing them. Is the United States trying to free Europeans from the tyranny of their government? Americans should also stop paying sales tax and incom

This is like saying income tax is a tariff because it stops people from buying more imported product.

You do realise that our debt comes from absurd govt spending and not the lack of nike sweatshops right?

The US could just tax the rich more and spread the extra wealth gained through offshoring. But no.

Politicians should just come out and say this to the people. Oh you can't afford a house? Oh you cant afford healthcare? But we are the richest country in the world. And the system is fair. It means you didn't earn it. Duh.

I know. There is no reason to believe in #2. Its an emotional response. And so you cant change it. Just like you cant use logic with a flat earther. And that's scary for the rest of the world. I just hope no wars happen.

America is the richest country in the world. That is the payback. Yet somehow the working class is screwed. People don't want to admit wealth distribution is the problem because that would make them "communists". It's an

Money over ethics has been the norm for a long time now. A lot of us unfortunately work at companies that actively make the world a worse place.

So I think people just have different lines. In your case a threat is over the line even though no action has happened yet. I've worked with managers who made very racist jokes towards me all the time. It was bearable in the beginning

by tock 2y ago
I'm genuinely curious. You would be ok working with actual racists who would be happy to see you dead as long as they are capable? Because its just their opinion? I'm guessing you draw the line somewhere.

It's the banks fault for terrible investments not the customers. Any customer would withdraw their money if they knew their bank is on the brink of collapse. Many banks have no problem taking on unnecessary risk because they believe th

India's AQI issues mostly stem from crop burning. AFAIK cars have to comply with BS6 which is pretty similar to Euro 6.
