The technology-will-save-us mentality is part of the reason we are here. We live in a society that doesn't do anything unless it makes money for some set of decrepit old men. We had the means to avoid this (strict vegan diets, ground b

Okay, so say AI & MBAs are successful in replacing the labor spend of corporations on every level? What happens to "the economy"?

You should read the CJR link. The "shared sense of identity and community" is being descendants of the victims of the slave trade and not the color of their skin.

Even with Tech Salaries, $1550/month is hugely damaging to your finances. I can't imagine trying to pay that on less than $15/hour.

Kind of goes to show that the entire "I bought an SUV so that I feel safe" is a manufactured problem.

I think that a good way to do this would be a triple-poison pill approach. Google et. al. are capable of policing the advertisements on it's platform, there is just not the business will to do it. The triple poison pill approach: * Eve

Why would Youtube care to police bad actors? They are taking this money directly to their quarterly revenue.

Honestly, that would be the much more dangerous attack to a company that must meet torque specs for safety. You can throw out a torque wrench, recalling already produced products on the other hand... "We've hacked your torque wren

The push into audiobooks feels like the start of the ehshittification of Spotify Premium. With an artificial limit of 15 hours of listening, can we expect to have to start paying for specific albums or releases?

My ISP absolutely was replacing ads with "Locally relevant content." I've got that email somewhere buried in my inbox.

You have to remember, you (the car buyer, employee, or shopper) aren't the target for these awards. These award companies market to mid-senior level VPs who have spending power and want to approach senior company leaders with a good st

I hope it does help stop these disruptive events. F1 (and other sports orgs) come in and tout that they drive business for local businesses and city councils just lap it up.

Non-Competes are absolutely sprung on employees and I am an example of that. The company I worked for was acquired and the 2 year non-competes were high-pressure "Sign it or you're fired" conversations. So I sit at the same d

I am too. My last energy bill was $39 for 174kWh for a house built in 1926. Considering that I pay ~$12 in grid connection fees, the payback period is functionally never.

You are shifting the reduced amount of energy that your car consumes. So even with a coal-based grid, it is a net-positive. The MPGe rating is a great indication of this.

And the vast vast majority of this farmland that could be used to raise human-edible crops is used to feed domesticated animals. While humans die of starvation.

Whoever green lit the decision to use a female NEMA plug plus a specific converter box should be banned from product design. It would have probably been fractional cents more expensive to use a male plug on the snow blower.

The Pool concept of horizon is very interesting. Libraries & Library Management are absolutely the worst part of EDA/E-CAD. I wonder where the Return on Invested time happens for this concept.

I'm sure your CEO got their bonus though, if not a premium on the bonus because they lead the company through such hard times.

Almond milk predates coconut milk by several hundred years even. I remember reading an account by a European man stranded in North America of almond milk but I couldn't find the source again. https://www.merriam-webster.com&

Why is that the unethical "tipping-point"? Why doesn't this farm address the other ethical issues with dairy farming like Sexual Assault, Forced Pregnancy, Mutilation, Infanticide, or Murder? The answer is that it would not b

This is ethics-washing. FTA: "Since October 2016 our calves have stayed with their mothers for 5 to 6 months." What happens month 7?

Most of that page is dedicated to how "nicely" that farmer treats his herd. But, there are a few omissions. How do they care for cows that are no longer capable of becoming pregnant? [0] How do they control the size of the herd w
