Yeah, sure, tax land at whatever rate. Our rent would just go up to compensate. Thank you very much.
This model does not resemble a free economy at all. Not only it doesn't consider the wealth-creation aspect of a free economy, but it assumes people "wagers" their wealth. No society does this and is a terrible model of…
impressive, I know many (allegedly) brained organisms capable of much less.
my point is that the value of the work is not directly related with its productivity but with its availability, which doubled during the last few decades.
I feel this discussion always misses an important point. The value of something has nothing to do with its costs or profits. The value of things (labor included) is subjective and is normally related to its scarcity. In…
Does this means that Emacs will now be usable on remote desktops such as x2go? It tends to close by itself and, if I remember correctly, it was related to some redrawing issue that, I hope, could be solved by this.
Could this endeavour be detrimental to the environment? (Please read my whole reasoning before calling me a Climate Change Denier or something like that) I understand that humans are changing the Earth's environment,…
But here you are not talking about coal. The alternative is not a more polluting fuel, is another person that is also very unhappy his opportunity was taken away because he had the wrong gender. We all agree that…
Where I live doctors are only allowed to give prescriptions for the generic chemical compound and are forbidden to give prescriptions for specific brands. They may suggest the use of a particular brand if they know of a…
No need to add more definitions when the ones already there are good enough.
Not a libertarian nor a bitcoin fan, but I have to disagree with OP. First, he postulates a gedankenexperiment where bitcoin replaces the dollar, but since it tends to appreciate in value, no one actually spends their…
They do say that they adjust for "patient characteristics", although they don't go into much detail. Also it's important to note that physicians that have a large volume of patients don't have a higher mortality rate on…
Not only that, but it fails to consider that many times, a large wealth, is not built with an extra 1% per year, but by one large hit. People have failed 20 years to then become rich on one good idea. You could call it…
I'd just like to point out that the "war" developing is not so much between advertising and ad-blockers. I think most of us would be fine with advertising on some page you are visiting. The real problem comes from…
It could be that I'm misunderstanding the problem, but I don't think that, in general, makes a lot of sense to define functions acting on NA values. What you really want are functions acting on arrays that may be…
