If you believe programming is not a talent then you won't complain when your pay is not structured the same way that talent pay is.

Your description point to infrastructure decay.
It is a hedging against increasingly expensive work force.
Everything is a social construct if we live in a society. The alternative would be to leave in an animalic state.
These arguments that "such-and-such is a social construct" are akin to "water is wet." Just a statement of fact with no obvious implications.
Surprisingly, even Macron articulated that maybe Western world needs "great story arcs", which is code word for SHARED IDEALS.
War is always an attribute of survival and the problem is that US population is pretty insulated from acute strife on the survival front. But the risks are there and can only be appreciated once you train in geopolitics.
The question is, to what extent the current shape of humanities is aligned to those principles?!
This has to do with a study about the measurement of the impact deforestation of tropical forests has on global warming.
> How big is three billion tons?
Three billion tons of anything is a lot, but it’s hard to grasp just how much — particularly when it’s tons of CO2, which we don’t have any everyday experience in weighing. One way to look at it is that the average U.S. car emits about 5 tons of CO2 a year from the tailpipe, so three billion tons is the equivalent of 600 million cars — about twice as many as there are in the whole United States. Another way of expressing it is that this is the equivalent of about 13 million railcars full of coal, which would stretch about 125,000 miles (half the distance to the moon). It's also equal to the total emissions from Western Europe, including Austria, the Czech Republic, Slovenia, all the Scandinavian countries, and Finland.

Plant a ton of trees and the CO2 problem solves by itself. The problem stems also from the huge deforestation that has taken place in the last couple of centuries.
You mean China, right?
The question stands: should cross promotion deals be disclosed?
Based on how the (down)votes go, I would give it a fair chance to the HN crowd turning into a "general interest" one.
Now it looks like it becomes an issue if you ask somebody to argue his/her statement. And if you praise somebody for providing a specific piece of info, at the expense of being down-voted, even that becomes controversial. What school of thought are you guys applying to this?
And how-come you show up to moderate this one week after everything has settled? This is an ideological witch hunt on your side.
And where can I verify your mod status? Who is to say that you are not simply pretending to be a mod and acting to stifle rational dialogue?!
I have a suggestion: to make things truly arbitrary, please ban me, and then I will be sure that you are a moderator.
For such a sad joke, feel free to ban this account. I am not interested in playing in your box.
My personal impression is that you might be seeing things a bit darker than they actually are.
I am absolutely sure that in real life we would manage to work together on a professional level. No need to fall for the media hype machine. With a deep breath, things are not as bad as they are made to be.
Cheers,
I would love to take a look over your article and digest it. Other than that, one quick question:
Did you spot any inconsistencies between the Bannon that was interviewed on 60 Mins and the Bannon at the time you wrote your article?
Where did he flip in his positions now and then?
Can you point to a public statement where he states that the 'whites' need to be favored and that the rest need to take a back-seat?
Please watch the 60 Minutes interview and you can see and hear for yourself that he argues clearly in favor of the working man, which definitely includes minorities. He clearly states that the black community has been hit hard by the illegal immigration, and being outbid in the job market.
