Expo is a huge bait and switch that makes it hard to fix down the line. It's all rainbows, butterflies and QR codes at first, until something goes wrong or you outgrow expo. Then you're in the 5th circle of hell where you've

I'm as far from a marxist as you can get. But we right now have this unholy union of capitalism and weird cultural norms, together enforced by the state. Example: instead of people having generational households and wealth, we're

It seems to be a tactic some nefarious companies are resorting to. They dish out titles like candy to capture cheaper labour and to "upcycle" people in their career ladder. Managing Director, Head Of Research, Chief of Staff,etc.

The first thing we need to do, in my opinion, is tackle inflation by getting government out of the picture. I think inflation is the root cause of a large chunk of what we don't like and complain about with capitalism. I have yet to ge

At the very least we have to concede that investigation and likelihood of prosecution is proportional to the noise that is made in the media and by vocal voices. It's a thousand tiny little decisions that affect the direction on the ag

I don't know what to tell you. My guess would be that they all enjoy the leisure lifestyle that's not disturbed by children. Maybe they're scared of having children by the possibility of them being bullied at school due to th

It's a huge host of reasons and they all have a tiny cumulative effect. Also after a while it also reaches a tipping point in that "all my friends aren't having kids so why should I". The reasons vary based on who you as

They really are bad, I don't think people get the full extent of it until they experience it first hand. I've been in client meetings where the devs (and managers) from an offshore Indian consultancy were in. Putting aside the hug

I was more referring to the people recording police and the way they treat them while they're doing their job. But this online database is just a lighter form of that. Accountability sure, all good, but this can quickly turn south and

Of course, I'm an anarcho capitalist. I think the power that police are given and use is both scary and not healthy for society. They will abuse it, and they will escalate violence. But I also understand that at this point in time, soc

We don't even know what kind of society we could have if the value of 99.9% of peoples labor (mental or physical) dropped to basically zero. Our human existence has so far been predicated and built on this core concept. This is the ult

Having a 1 on 1 with each report every 2 weeks is the problem here, not the amount of people. Where did this 1 on 1 stuff make it into the manager bible? You do your job and if you don't like something, ask for a 1 on 1. If your senior

What do you think the children of people committing said crimes do? They mimic their parental figures. Child on child violence is a real thing and ignoring it just let's them turn into adult versions of the bullies they are.
