Is this like those photos of apple store where the employees stand outside to high-five anybody who bought an item from the store? I feel sad for those who are so insecure that they need constant approval from their peers.

But you travel to get somewhere not to be in a vehicle for X amount of time. So why would any metrics besides per-distance be more relevant.

I will keep this in my monetisation handbook. "If I had cancer I would be wiped out which is why XYZ is no longer free. thx for your support"

The point I am making is that war has and will always be part of human societies and therefore all technological progress will be applied to warfare. There's no point to complaining about potential use of new tech in war the same way t

there's no such thing as free will so choice is a red herring anywa. You are what you are, whether you 'chose' to be is pointless to talk about.

modern open-sourcers don't care about software freedom. They want free contributors and marketshare so they can 'monetise' and 'exit'. Gotta learn to spot the fakes.

All the open standards are still out there. Just because now there are 2 billions slaved to walled gardens doesn't mean all the good stuff disappeared. It just seems like everything is walled garden because the wall-to-unwalled ratio h

It's the only option because it's the best option. Without plastic what would you package things with? Everything is shit by comparison.

Name the way to create incentives that doesn't involve money then. Many have tried, non is successful. Pricing, supply, demand, are ways consumers indicate their interest in products and services, and recycling is very low value, becau

Why don't we just sit around a campfire and sing koombayah and hopefully everybody's problems will go away? If you don't care about money, then just give it all to me. If you do, then these people do too, which is why it&#x27

What annoys me is the consistent blaming on the 'industry' and 'profit' when industries only make thins people buy. So why do people use single-use plastic? Because they are lazy, and it's convenient.

It is not a globally suboptimal outcome. She chose to have 3 children without a strong financial foundation. This is why she has no money. Groceries don't fall from the sky. Somebody has to make them. So the option here is to either ta

meanwhile the guy who's perfectly fine driving for uber is eating cheetos at time and you will never meet him. it's like being a doctor and complaining that everybody is sick.

You can choose to not participate in Uber's system. You can not choose to not pay tax. Well, you can choose that but you will go to jail and be potentially sodomised.

It is acceptable because the woman chose to be a mother of three. She chose to do it without financial stability. If you jump into a river, other people should not be liable to bail you out if the water is faster than you thought (or never

You are not entitled to live in a particular city at a particular price. If a property owner can make 17% more, why should they make 17% less so YOU are more convenieced?

Yeah. Not to mention the really nice dinners Uber lawyers took the prosecutor to to discuss the case.
