Im scared of such arguments. And im telling you as a libertarian.
No, private companies should be regulated and shareholders cant be the only voice to be heard.
I mean, what if starbucks shareholders decide that, lets say, african americans are no longer allowed to buy coffe on their shops. Would it be ok to allow it?
Wondering from where it comes the optimism in this thread for this ban.
Ive traveled to more than 40 countries, and lived for some time in 5, all of them with public prison monopolies. In all of them the prison systems turn to be terrible. And by terrible, I mean that the US prisons look like 5 stars hotels compared to them.
For reference, I was in most south american and caribbean countries, Spain, Portugal among others.
I tried to use FF, but Im really used to the Chrome experience. Brave is literally the same experience (maybe the only difference that I notice is the height of the tabs, which seems to be a little smaller than Chrome).
I dont use Chrome because generally I try to avoid Google products when possible.
I have no idea, as I mentioned im not familiar with that, and I've never signed up on the ad platform / solution / whatever offered during the installation.
I just decline to join that program during the setup, and never ever popped up again. If I could hide the red triangle on the right of the nav bar, i'd do that as well.
Since Brave is usually roasted around here, I just want to say thanks to the devs. I'm a Brave user and the experience is fantastic. Two things: I was a Chrome user for many years, so switching to Brave was not traumatic at all (same user experience, plugin's compatibility) and also ad blockers work as expected.
I've never pay attention to the included ad solution. Im not interested on it.
Im strictly speaking as an end user.
This is a very similar experience that I had my 8 yo kid, though its not something that exclusive of Roblox.
Same thing happened with Nintendo Switch, Minecraft and Youtube.
If Peterson is not of your like, you could still take a look at some of the papers and studies referenced in the article from credible sources[1][2], before drawing conclusions from an unrelated subject (whether or not he read the Communist Manifesto).
My point since the beginning of this thread was to reflect that sorting terrorist attacks by extreme ideology flavours is not something infind particularly appropriate. That was not the point why i linked it originally, but just to expand on the numbers presented by the previous message.
Wow, so much downvoting for just stating an obvious thing, that extremism is a bad thing, no matter the ideology behind it.
On topic, I can't talk about 2018 because I dont have hard facts about it, but from 1992 through August 12, 2017 the distribution sets that 92% of killings were extreme islamic related, followed by a 6% of extreme right groups.[0]
Again, I find it very inappropriate to try to classify this by ideology. No extremism is less bad than the next one. No matter if its right or left, religious or any other type (remember rajneeshpuram?).
Personally, as a non american I have suffered much more of left-wing terrorism (like bombs on subways; kidnapping, torture and killing), but again and again, it doesnt really matter.
"Neoliberalism", or the story of one of the dumbest terms used on economics. No liberals -or "libertarian" for north americans- consider itself a neoliberal. No existing bibliography talks about it, only detractors of traditional liberalism. Then why to add the neo prefix to it?
Newspapers shouldnt think if a particular opinion provides "a gain" or not, even if most of the times they act following that principle.
Other than that, I dont see a specific support for coups on some of the extracts mentioned in the Article (Argentina, Chile, Brazil).
I can have a vote, but government will still force me to pay tributes at gunpoint. On the other hand, im not forced to buy most of private goods. At the end, the evil organizations are those that became monopolies, no matter if it is public or private.
Mainly because most governments around the globe have the monopoly of public force, creating the perfect ground for arbitrary decisions. Its not black and white, by those defaults seems accurate.
Not to undermine your point, but you have used the worst possible example. In the top 1000 of worst prisons around the world, most if not all of them are not private. Just take a look a Brazil prison system as en example.
World is not black and white. You can always criticize Facebook for their brutal user information sharing practises, or lack of curation to try to avoid fake news. But at the same time its possible to recognize that not everything on FB is fake news. Or in this particular case, that letting people share and communicate is not reprehensible.
I no longer use fb, instagram and twitter. Was not a premeditated decision though. Just lost interest on them. I found traditional forums like hn more enjoyable.
I will definitely give ncc a try. Our published npm artifacts on Artifactory are big, mainly because we are forced due to company policies to bundle node_modules into them. Npm installing them on our on premise instances are the main bottleneck of the deployment process.
Javascript has evolved enough during these years to a point that is no longer a "joke". Theres yet some kind of inertia from past, when JS was basically a form validation language, but current state of language is a complete different story.
The only remaining question to know is how many layers of shit, unnecessary complexity will IBM add on top of the preexisting shit, unneccesary layers already added by Red Hat on their products.
