"EU tech sector fights to have an EU judge reset the scoreboard to zero after decades of losing the game against Microsoft"
A tax haven is a nation with low to no taxes, where foreigners can operate for tax purposes. The term you are looking for, and almost had, was "tax avoidance". Tax avoidance is perfectly legal. It is tax evasion that is…
Now imagine he was offered 6 months pay to not show up ever again!
And you just presumed everyone on that list was in the "down" group. Why?
There are more important things than money. Having your name dragged through the mud, having people presume you are a disgusting sexist before they have even met you, these are things that can destroy a person…
Comments do not fall on a spectrum between "absolutely sexist" and "absolutely not sexist". Comments exist as fixed points in space, and the observers fall on a spectrum of "absolutely going to call the comment sexist"…
The problem being highlighted here isn't bad communicators. The problem is good communicators being incentivized out of communicating. It says something about you that you could not comprehend something that obvious.
Imagine if the person in charge of AI Ethics converted to a fundamentalist Christian sect. Their ethics changed and now they think LGBT people should be discriminated against explicitly. Nobody supporting Margaret…
Yes, ethics is agnostic to one's personal convictions when it is your job. Same as how defense lawyers leave their personal sense of justice out of their jobs. Same as how sports referees don't let their childhood…
Compare that to the economy Germany could have had.
Not really. Unions often operate as guilds, restricting access to potential employees and restricting the trade of members.
No, people will read it as a variation on jupyter, as intended, and jupyter is pronounced (by pretty much everybody) as jupiter. So Jupystar is pronounced like Jupistar. Jupis, like lupis. People try to be too clever…
Jupyter is pronounced like Jupiter. Jupystar must therefore be pronounced like Jupistar.
One line, one idea. That's the goal. Your eye doesn't need to move if you can get the information you need from the first 30 characters. Two lines, one idea. That's a recipe for cognitive disaster. It forces you to read…
> Redemption is to just try not to be a jerk. Motte and Bailey. Telling people you aren't a racist and didn't mean the thing they consider to be racist in a racist way is in no way denying the other party's feelings are…
"Fake news" was first used in the 17th century. Today, it is a term deployed by President Trump against news outlets he doesn't like. But he didn't invent the term. He heard it from someone using it against news outlets…
Perhaps, but wouldn't a better example be the actual purity spiral occurring in open source?

Feminism wasn't just standing around doing nothing. Grifters and frauds exploited feminism and attacked games and game players. Feminists fell for the grifters and fraudsters grift and fraud and dutifully went after…
> I think most people agree racism exists and is bad. Sure, by the definition of racism that you and I would use. But not by the one that's been weaponised in these purity spirals. By their definition, as explained by…

What sort of solution is this supposed to be? I mean, who thinks the reason homeless people are homeless is just because they don't have a roof over their heads? Spend money on mental health services! It's not rocket…
Oh great, another non-economist getting famous for criticizing economics from a position of comprehensive ignorance. Modern economics has more than enough critics WITHIN the economics field. People who wouldn't say…
Turning over the leaseholder has a cost all by itself. But more importantly, there is also the reputation damage you'd sustain by doing this. Consider, any perspective leaseholder who googles the property could find…
Almost every "movement" is a teen movement. They're the ones who feel most passionate about, well ... anything, the ones who have had the least life experience countering what's being "revealed" to them, the ones with…
