This is terribly sad! Almost satire

I mean there are alternative models. Lee Kuan Yew from Singapore famously opposed the "helping the bottom kids at expense of the top ones". Is it really the right thing?

>straight up threats because kids would learn things "they shouldn't be"

What do you think is behind the threats? Do the teachers fear being replaced or is it coming from a different set of people?

Until we see something like this,

The company is liable for $10 per hacked user minus 100X the bounty spend for that year.

Some are good but then think about it this way, most of them look forward to leveraging debt. Which easily puts them in a position, (with for ex. the current high interest rate environment), in which they are trapped.

And ^ above we're just talking about the ones that seek long-term investment. The ones that look for a quick flip in 6-10 years? Hard to trust them

The direction of genetic information flow. And yes, multiple cases of the Dogma not working that way. That's why it is, literally, "dogma"

Some people took it to heart

The direction of information flow

It's a good rebranding. It was getting ridiculous 3.5, 4, 4.5,

The FDA only cares about outright, immediately dangerous things. See how long they delayed with asbestos and thalidomide. Over long time frames, you are on your own

Card is a permanent %2+ tax, how does it compare?

In the US cash is more convenient for paying dinner. Instead of the awkward dance of check -> put card -> bring back -> tip. You just pay it with tip, can easily round up or down a bit...

Current thought in political circles is the problem is the fertilizer, nitrogen must be reduced.

Thank you! At this point we reapplied but left thinking, what if we had filed a motion? The main thing was they did not know how quick it would have reopened and I risked running out of authorization in the meantime.

They did not strike me as particularly knowledgeable as to getting a Congressional office involved even though I brought it up. Just big-tech provided lawyers, not sure how effective they are when the process deviates from usual

Feyerabend, for one, but that's getting quite above you...

Yeah, the way it's done in my country is the founder and his existing investors pool into a holding for the 51% which the founder controls. Then, they cannot sell around his back

Sane people would say "I don't know you" and hang up.

The CEO did not have 51%.

I've seen small towns adopt cash only payments to curtail this. Why should the tax pay effectively a 2%+ tax on the economic activity of the town. Imagine a bunch of people living there, transacting with each other, 2% tax for every movement?

Time to go bigger on metals and crypto

This is analyzed in that classic economics text The Wealth of Nations, neither capitalists nor urban workers win this one.

There are three components that get paid in business. Labor, capital and rent.

Rent is low in construction as it is not tied to a particular location; you store the machines and tools anywhere.

Increasing the supply of labor will just ensure that the providers of capital get to keep more of the profit.

Mexican construction workers, make usually the minimum wage. About 10 USD per day

The form of iron "supplementation" universally added to flour in the US is little more than that. There's some theories that this impacts gut bacteria, particularly the ones associated with B-vitamin.

Iron shavings -> bad bacteria -> poor Vitamin B status -> intestinal lining damage -> celiac, allergies and autoimmune

TLDR; bread in the US makes people sick, not in Europe

Also, AFAIK they don't add iron shavings to it

I've researched this issue, the Scandys doth protest too much.

Yeah, it's like a religion at this point. There are many meaningful debates to be had but people just react very emotionally and dogmatically.

What is the degree of human causation? How much can be imputed to solar cycles at any given moment of time? What % of CO2 is produced by humanity? Is there a possibility of actual catastrophe? Should pollution reduction and cleanup be prioritized over carbon capture/reduction?

Denier is such a loaded word, call them skeptic. In this case at least, seems their skepticism was warranted.

I had a BMW with encrypted CAN or very similar to what that would be. Would refuse to use a new module unless you had the dealership key. Which my mechanic managed to get from his friend at the dealership but still...

Needless to say, never again

It was never done for climate reasons. Purely economic and geopolitic
