I think the parent post was referring to the anti-environmentalist aspect of the new administration. They're not going fund remediation efforts while attempting to dismantle the EPA.

I'm legitimately wondering what you recommend from among those options.

No one has time to verify/double check literally everything they're told. And if they did, they wouldn't have the time to learn everything that one would need to know to verify everything. It's impossible. Therefore, som

Sweet, it's basically data on HN users then. Only 13.4% of HN readers use Firefox. For shame. But seriously, it's interesting that safari is top by quite a margin.

Are you sure? Is this recent (last 6 months)? I enabled it and tested multiple versions of Proton with no success. Did you have to do anything else?

I wouldn't say always. The last time I ran such a script, it didnt break anything. Granted, I did as the repo readme expressly and boldy stated, more than once, that 'anyone using this should read through the list of commands&#x27

Isn't that just saying "if you take the cube root of the number, it's a smaller number"? I don't mean to be facetious - I'm struggling to to see what other consideration this helps with.

It's a matter of opportunity costs as well. If you want to be able to do plumbing, wiring, framing... you likely don't also have the time to learn the potentially vast amount of knowledge required to adeptly navigate the legal sys

It's a little much to say almost everyone does it wrong. More likely, since it's something that catches your notice, you probably have a bias for noticing/remembering when it's incorrect and not noticing when it's c

That was one of my first thoughts as well. The article sells this increase as a necessity, but with no note of whether that was to maintain profits or operating costs, further research may be required. My feeling is that it's the forme

Profits? I mean, I'm guessing the trend can't be wholly disconnected from the massive layoffs in the tech sector over the last year or so. Probably not the primary driver, but companies are always looking to maximize profits and,

I think this depends on your doctor/clinic and where you are. The last one I took home just had an oxygen sensor and the skin probe/patch. The doctor said they get (hand wavey) 95%+ of the same diagnostic capability from the simpl

Non-profit simply tells people what the incentives/motivations are or are not. The average for-profit company can't be trusted/expected to do what's best for anyone outside the profit structure (e.g. users or the public

This is why definition of terms is so important in discussions of this type. The word socialism/socialist has been bastardized and propagandized beyond comprehension now. Socialism covers a broad range of potential policies and structu

That seems like a much more recent and much smaller phenomenon. The censorship and attempted or succesful modification of school curricula (esp. evolution/biology and sex education) by 'right wing' christian groups goes back
