You have Musk-y dick so deep down your throat it's in your stomach.
That's a pretty simple regulatory change to cap HOA fees as a percentage of rent for affordable units though. Obviously the developers will fight this, and the rich tenants will never exercise or swim near poor people,…
The free market will always distort regulation to suit the elites that profit from those distortions. Either through government or monopolistic corporations. As long as private property is enforced through the threat of…
What does that have to do with anything? If anything it should be cheaper because the risk pool is much larger and the population density is much higher. A big part of Canada's healthcare cost is due to the huge…
You've got some interesting points here, but it definitely reads more like conspiratorial thinking. What realistic difference is there between "The States" and the federal government? In the end you're still going to…
If you think a small amount of affirmative action compensates in any way for the massive systemic barriers facing poor people or black/indigenous people in this country you should give away your money so your kids can…
It's cultural appropriation, and it's understandable you feel it's silly or offensive. Part of what makes it uncomfortable is the appropriation of culture for little more than vapid monetary gain. Like you said, it's…
> The point of socializing healthcare is making other people pay. Yes. Especially you personally. Honestly, I don't even care about socialized healthcare as long as your tax rate is > 90%. Think of it as a "stupid…
So now not only do I have to spend several days on the phone each year with my insurance company, on top of figuring out which plan I want every new job, but I also need to watch a bunch of videos about…
Luck isn't involved as long as you can ensure your sampling noise is uncorrelated with the incoming wave, either by direct insertion of dither or characterization of environmental noise. Regardless, your point still…
Missed the edit: > Socialism and capitalism are not opposite ends of a yardstick. I am _not talking about socialism_. Limiting the ability to own property or trade _is the same thing_ as limiting freedom. One has…
The boots of the oppressive global capital class. > I didn't make a single value judgement in favor of one system or the other! You asserted that the abolition of capitalism would result in depravation of freedom. That…
The OP was obviously referring to abolishing capitalism in favour of socialism. So either you're being so overly pedantic it's impenetrable, or you're just very obtuse. > You've called my individual thoughts,…
This is absolutely not true, and is a fundamental misunderstanding of socialist systems of government. There are even variants of socialism that embrace markets and competition, and almost all allow ownership of…
Nothing about abolishing capitalism implies that people will not be free. Arguably they could be more free. Not every socialist state needs to (or should) emulate the USSR. You should try reading The Conquest of Bread.
You're doing exactly what literally every expert on white nationalism says that white nationalists do to make their abhorrent views appealing to a wider audience. Either do some self-reflection or admit you're a white…
Based on your other comments, follow your leader.
Your comment is an exceptional example of fascist propaganda, and illustrates how it can spread in "polite society". It even includes a cute attempt to hide it by suggesting you're "not a fan". However, you're not even…
It's a ton of work to start a union, one that can and has absolutely cost people their jobs, both historically and recently. It seems unlikely that it's just "lefty political signalling". Perhaps you can point to…
It would be valuable to provide some sources for your claim, because as-is this reads like propaganda. Perhaps the causation is reversed, and industries with terrible working conditions and low raises tend to attract…
Along those lines, "The Conquest of Bread" by Kropotkin exposed me to a new way of thinking about liberty and political self-determination.
It's quite telling of HN that this perfectly reasonable comment is the most downvoted. I also enjoy the ignorant response implying governments are responsible for worker protections, not the organized labour that pushed…
> quickly reducing the implicit bargaining power that we've enjoyed for the last 10 years. Why not codify that bargaining power into a series of employee-owned organizations that are able to negotiate for salaries in…
A single resistor is seriously not challenging to get right. If they can't do that they sure as hell shouldn't be making a cable.
That's fair. I'm quite liking KiCAD for personal projects these days. Feels like the good parts of Cadence (unix-y, super scriptable) without the cruft and bizarre UX. Sadly it's not nearly powerful enough for 'real'…
