Almost. I would still want a location sharing app on my kids phones, a navigation app, maybe a sport tracking app. That would be a locked down smartphone with a few apps I would install and no browser access.
I checked the comments to see if anyone pointed to this: I can imagine so many memes with this line :)
I don't think that most competent IT people are pushing for digital-only systems. The people that I see pushing for digitalization are either clueless politicians or corrupt or incompetent IT people selling snake oil.…
I mean that higher end jobs don't want to be in an area where they don't enjoy. They are the higher tax payers and they want to enjoy their lives far from the kind of people that live in rent controlled housing - there…
> New York is a city that people all around the world want to live in I don't know anyone that wants to live in NY. I would not move there for a 7 figure salary. I think some opinions in this discussion are based on old…
I guess many jobs don't want to be in the places where very cheap housing exists. What is the point of earning SV money and live in a bad neighbourhood?
That is the point: as a citizen in a city, you are part of that city and any contract the city is part of. Otherwise, what/who is a city?
That is just a bad deflection, not an answer to the point.
> just being a resident of a city doesn’t give you standing to sue over any decision that has a tenuous adverse effect on you Why not? If you are impacted, why not? When do you have a standing then? Visitors out of town…
If it is a park, does it mean anyone living in the city has standing because their entire city lost the park?
How about we make taxation as a fix amount per citizen and then nobody needs to declare their income OR land? And it is equal and fair, as in "pay your fair share", and that's it: you are a citizen, then you pay $X as…
Yes. Most of the people I see are on the extremes of either hating LLMs or fanatically loving it, but I am somewhere in the middle ground, I think, where I see it as a tool that sometimes helps to some extent. I don't…
At least in the newest headset Sennheiser announced user replaceable battery, without announcing the price or if it is a standard format that you can buy everywhere or a very pricey gold-pressed latinum custom…
First you are deflecting and going in discussions about points that were never made, then you keep preaching a system where you don't have property rights under the nice "think of the children" pretext that it is a…
That is basically removing property rights, when the land is not yours but you just rent it ... you will own nothing and be happy.
I also think UBI is necessary, but I don't have a political agenda on how to force people funding it. Maybe it's me growing in a communist country and hating it to death (communism, socialism and all the variants that…
I don't understand how some people write hundreds of text/chat messages per day. I am communicating by talking to people almost 100% of non-work, most of the discussions are face to face, I write or receive a handful of…
Lacking not just courage, but also character. Wasting company money on buzzwords and dubious outcomes is lack of character.
I am paying taxes in US for over 20 years, don't hold a green card, not interested in ever getting one and not complaining that I don't have the right to vote. How are these things related?
What I did not see in the article or comments is the fact that people dictate how things evolve. People vote with their wallets (or via local councils) in ways that directly or indirectly influence the outcome. The…
In my part of Europe doctors are paid extremely well. Construction workers also earn quite well given the lack of qualification required, a highway worker earns more than a junior developer and even more than many…
I think they were pushed not to have children, if that matters. Pushed via economical measures that made it very hard and pushed via education/indoctrination that kids are bad in multiple ways. My grandparents had many…
Same for me; but what they did not tell, because it was not needed at that time, is that not everyone is capable of going to an university, the admission was tough and the school was hard, so people were filtered by…
Are you sure the wages don't rise in high demand, low supply areas? We all just read the 7 figure salaries for people in AI stolen from one big company to another, what is that? Yes, companies are picky, but it is…
I think the investors should NOT invest if they don't like the governance structure. This is calling "voting with your wallet".
