Also true in decentralized entities.
A handshake is symbolic and can be easily replaced with a different symbol.
It really sucks that people are downvoting your cogent and fact-based response.
I didn't fact-check all of your links, but the first two that I randomly selected showed transit usage increasing over time.
Thanks. Sometimes I suck. I'll do better.
Americans used to spend 15% of household income on clothing, and they got fewer items of clothing in return. I understand that you think it best if the government force me to support my inefficient local textile…
The supply chains that you rail against have successfully delivered the greatest levels of prosperity to the largest number of humans in all of history. They were created not by some mysterious force, but by individuals…
An apology doesn't mean you took an action with bad intent; it indicates you recognize that some people were unhappy with the results of your action and that you care about those people.
I understand that you claim that it enhanced their bottom line, but that makes no sense. I (and many others) will _immediately replace_ a phone that routinely turns itself off under load. I will limp along, for quite a…
The 'Battery Health' screen shows the device specific aspect of the implementation. There's a section titled 'Peak Performance Capability' which will say "This iPhone has experienced an unexpected shutdown because the…
Yes and they have a near total monopoly with their [checks notes] 20% global handset marketshare. You can't just go to Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi, Oppo, Nokia, or anybody else and get one!!
They made a decision to try to keep battery life closer to constant at the expense of performance, believing it was a better UX (slow phone > no phone). I think this was totally defensible, and I also think that the…
It’s kinda incredible what a dumb fucking faggot you are.
Exactly; but Missosoup has strongly internalized the idea that neither blacks nor queers deserve respect; as such he truly doesn’t understand why calling them derogatory terms is a bad thing. To him, it’s insane that a…
The notion that Apple should not be “allowed” to keep some software out of their App Store is nonsense. It saddens me that a person who claims to care about freedom also wants the government to forbid people from making…
It's absolutely what he said. Political correctness is a right-wing term used when they want to call somebody X, but may face social consequences for doing so. It's not a wealthy western phenomena. It's global and it's…
> pretty unique to the wealthier segments of the West and Europe. Thank you for letting me know that Asia has no complex rules about how to address people, and no social consequences for failure to obey those rules.
Your example was also fatally flawed because it buys into the notion that white collar work is not working class. White collar laborers are labor; they are not capital. I make a couple hundred thousand dollars per year.…
It would be more accurate to frame payment for order flow as: "We get private institutions to offer you better than public prices; so you'll routinely buy each share a few cents lower, and sell a few cents higher than…

100 years or more would be a reasonable start if we're going to have perspective.
Go read some old newspapers. It's clear you haven't.

We need to stop pretending that these missed estimates are a catastrophe. They're inventing new things, and there's uncertainty. We'd be a lot better served, as a nation and a society, if we accepted these realities in…
I think it's nostalgia for an age that never existed, multiplied by a US-based demagogue's campaign against facts. Journalism has always been deeply flawed and massively biased, yet still useful. The people of the past…
