Wow… that’s gorgeous. A real community center…

But dismantling NOAA means the data that proves this will be paywalled and beholden to private ownership, so skewed… So the plan to combat your line of reasoning is already in motion. They just need enough Americans to fall for their candidate.

Such incredible bullshit. Tracking is to learn and see where things go right and wrong.

The fact manglement then puts the onus on the employee to cook te books for them is bizarre. Once tasks go over budget you can have a talk about it in a retrospective or something. But half hours… makes no sense.

I miss the old podcast. I never knew that I wanted a long form interview with a taxidermist, a climate scientist or someone that travelled the rainforest looking for new species. But having experts in their field come on and talk about their subject showed their drive and love for their fields. The pundits where really off putting.

If you are truly interested in learning why, I could link you some resources.But the long and short of it is, the US is as rich and powerful because one of their big exports is safety for their allies.

You can bet your ass thatany US allies are watching the shit show in congress regarding Ukraine and wondering if they will be left out to dry if push comes to shove, and will hesitate to back US plays in the power competition with China.

Well then be active in your politics on what the money is spent on, but you rely on stuff paid for by your taxes every day.

Just imagine how much “the strong” will run rough shot on you if the government did not exist. The Republican hellscapes that allow companies to poison communities, exploit workers and more are good examples.

The economic indicators are not indicators that work for the populace at large. We need better indicators.

Just look at china’s economic growth. They have built entire ghost cities and values all they built at market prices, as if they where in hot demand. And this skyrocketed the economy. It was a massive ponzi scheme., but the numbers looked great.

In western Europe, housing is scares, skyrocketing the house prices, this adds to the value of the housing pool, in turn to the total value of the economy… and we call if growth and increase in wealth. But no one who owns their house will be able to cash in that value increase until they die. Stupid indicator if you ask me.

Well the fine system should augment the rest of the measures. It’s not as if you can keep doing what you are fined for. The punishment for repeat offence should and does result in escalation of punishment.

The issue seems to be two fold:

• The fine system did not keep up with reality and the insane income inequality. If fines are setup to hurt equally, like a percentage of global revenue, or of total assets, you can bet your ass they will be effective at stopping undesired behavior.
• The lack of shame, it used to be that getting a fine would actually serve as a signal people understood, but the corporate shield from personal responsibility has gone so far that decision makers just do not care about potential consequences.

The factory must grow!

The number 1 offer google was making to their user base was so far ahead of its competitors that everyone naturally gravitated to it.

They then spent all their efforts milking it for all its worth that the offering was methodically abused by bad actors also only interested in milking the user base (seo optimized, nonsense generated articles, artificial usage stats).

Now the offering is so bad quality (diluted with rubbish) that they will find it harder and harder to compete.

I can’t say I’m not disappointed, I also cannot say I’m surprised.

Also the drive to walled gardens like discord and putting actual content in a YouTube video to be able to monetize it has damaged the web badly.

With infrastructure as code, vm management has become even more easy. A lot of companies are standardizing their vm park based on new deployment and management techniques e Sometimes in IaaS platforms (a fancy name for externally managed, rented hardware) but the VM has a long life ahead.

Absolutely. You cannot claim safe harbor while banning stuff like this.

De-privatize… it is currently a privately owned company. It has reached a point where it could be chopped up, some of it goes to MilSatCom the rest to NASA.

But Starlink is not on in the contested areas is it? At least in Crimea… or did they turn it on now?

This is hilarious, the sitting president trolling the troll king and his minions.

Excellent… subsidize, and standardize regulations. This allows for upscale of production and investment in further improvement. This will make them better and cheaper… hooray!

Electricity is too cheap for these uses.

Make the vendor responsible for actual recycling and this issue goes away over night
