If you want instil a notion of morality, read literature on ethics, and not listen to people peddling laughable stories cooked up before anyone had enough brain cells.

Twice, mind you.

Enslaved nations should rise against the slave master.

This was just another American cool-aid. The strategy was this: cultivate a hyper-consumerist, greedy and gluttonous population at home. Invite other countries to export and trade with the US. Build a dependency from which countries can't unwind themselves out of. Enslave the world and rule over them. Continue the aforementioned strategy while dispensing other cool-aids like "trade prevents war".

Yet, it seems like the enslaved nations still haven't gotten the memo.

The same old cool-aid: the label on bottle reads "freedom". But if you look at the ingredients: greed, gluttony, looting, bullying, spread american culture, slavery, surveillance - the full nth-amendmend package. Dosages may vary.

Please contribute what you can to the starving millionaire executives. With the fuel prices this high, their yachts haven't sailed for days. With their helicopters grounded, how are they going to take their kids to the school?! Come on, have a heart!

This fuckery of US sanctions should end. Nations should stop enslaving themselves to the US.

Would corporate BYOD and bank apps work, though?

I guess I'll say it: despite your good intent and effort, this doesn't explain a thing, not to the majority of people asking the question like above.

This sort of explanation, whilst being technically correct, is right up there with "A monad is a monoid in the category of endofunctors. What's your problem?".

If pay attention to some americans speaking, you'll notice that they find it hard when and where to use 'an' vs. 'a'. You'll hear things like 'a example', 'a understanding' etc. English is hard (for some).

It's not related to the article content, but I can't help but notice the "diversity" in authorship grades: a senior staff, a (regular) senior, and a principal. I suppose grades are a key mechanism by which corporates keep their hamster wheels running.

I'm thankful that, at my $WORK, we're all software engineers by title, from the lowly interns to the CTO. Still, everybody knows who's who and whom to talk to, depending on the gravity of the issue.

Only works with C and C++, though.

Yes, you can read all about how that came about, and how it's going.

> The EU does not have a military to annex any neighbours with. Individual states do, but non are really great powers any more.

You're projecting an American ideal. Not all nations are--nor want to be--America, and we're thankful for that.

This is a positive sign: free-minded, aligned, progressive nations clustering together. Suggested next steps are to form a single market, military, issue common trade currency, move off US dollar, stop trading with the US, thereby restoring sovereignty and enacting your own laws etc.

All, of course, is a ramp to eventually shunning the US: the global bully.

Yes, we can!

It brings tears to my eyes to see 'whom' used correctly these days.

It's called stage-4 capitalism: profit by any and all means.

Is there a name for names that designate the exact opposite of what they convey? Examples are OpenAI, Free range chicken, "People's Republic" of China; and now Anthropic.

Not about soil specifically, but even something as trivial as a prick can kill you -- because, bacteria: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Alexander_(police_offic....

I'm curious: what's the shortest Dan Luu post people have seen?

They should really consider adding an audio version, even if AI generated.

No punishment can undo the crime. So we might has well end the criminal and save the money that clothe and feed them otherwise.

But the larger point is that we should abolish the notion of 'limited liability' about corporations. That'll strike fear into the heart of executives, knowing that the law can come after both them and all their moneys and possessions. Suddenly the thought of 'oh, what if I fuck up?' pop up in their heads. They'll imagine their families begging on the streets for basic sustenance. That, if nothing else, will get them to behave like a normal person.

That's step 1 done. Steps to follow are: move off the US dollar, cancel trade agreements with the US and restore your own laws in your country, evict US military bases from your country.

"The wheels of justice turns slowly but grinds finely". Oof!

I will not stand and watch tabs getting discriminated!

> What does a CEO(and other managers) do really?

Take risk with other people's lives and earn the big bucks for that.

You think the rich will let that happen?
