I find this optimistic, suggesting that the rot can be stopped with some consequence? The rotten "populace" in the country seem to love their corrupt politicians, and it's because they're corrupt too. Meritocracy began i

I thought my previous comment made that obvious. And unlike in the private sector, mismanagement in government is a given.

We never talk about social welfare programs? Odd, I hear chatter all the time. How about we never talk about rewarding management-by-breaking-things?

I can rephrase it then to they owned themselves in this case by being so damn gullible, thus further entrenched power given to the insurance industry.

The "libs" who lobbied for so-called universal healthcare? They further empowered these corporations and now they want to get rid of them. The libs owned themselves on this topic, obviously.

Ever done any work for a US health insurance company? You won't find many conservatives. You will find many "free lunch" advocates who spend half their day lobbying to protect their job and their industry. They are playing po

Could be the other way around. Failed leadership in the ruling class is promoting culture war and strife as a scapegoat. Quite easy to see the rise of race hate correlated with bank bailouts and occupy movement. Immigration won't fix t

I'm not mad at congress, I'm mad at the fools who keep voting for them.

I think when certain very talented creators get "demonetized" and they have a bad experience with customer service trying to understand why, and maybe suspect the criteria changed without they're knowing, it's relatively

Fascinating. So do you think government is essentially doing a great job at protecting freedom and maintaining decentralized power structures? Or are they too busy building company towns?

Are you suggesting that our universities are teaching short-term thinking cowardice and greed? Or is it just certain programs? For a while I thought it was "STEM" programs that alluded most to easy-money themes in academia, with b

> you might find the clients or the brigading groups that were talked about above to be either in the right or in the wrong This is implied in the fact that no details were given, so I just find it incredibly strange that anyone would co

Sorry, just asking questions in a manner I thought was appropriate following your response with the words 'disastrous' and 'emphatic'. Honestly it's unclear how or whether you think this brigading issue should be ha

Reminded me also of the Taguchi loss function. To paraphrase, quality is optimized when you manage the variation of a measurement in relation to its target value, instead of emphasizing the acceptable limits. It was seen as an improvement o

Fredrick Taylor was the one who developed so-called management science and obsessive measurement, paving the way for Deming to popularize a more balanced or holistic approach, ie. akin to actual science.

The article mentions about selling kits, so it's pretty obvious that his videos would be at least partially motivated by commercial aspirations. Yes? I called the comment silly as it seemed to be saying "I not only disapprove of t

Try to understand that the economy is structured on a system of laws that facilitate the provision of jobs and goods/services by companies, while minimizing harm and maximizing fairness. Are you anti-regulation in general, or saying so

Are you singing praises of mob mentality and wanting to protect US democracy at the same time?

Exactly. I read this as a much broader critique of the scientific community. As YouTube is seen as a mass media company, it's not hard to accept their content decisions. He didn't fight it. I also believe any company that markets

Twitter makes its money as a marketing engine. Who can say what marketing is deemed intentionally deceptive? I'm not a Twitter user either but it seems to me an obvious question.

Actually it is a logical fallacy to interpret one's rejection of a proposed solution to be a rejection of the problem. I'm not arguing any specific case for it, but it does seem to be quite common and problematic in civil discou

Another problem is when so many people take a politician's words at face value. It simply doesn't work like that.

by equality_1138 5y ago
It could be that when someone doesn't trust your solution, you call them out for not believing in the problem. Logical fallacy.

Many would say our political economy is built on insatiable consumption, and is therefore incapable of cutting emissions to such a scale to materially impact climate change. It makes no sense to blame 'Republicans' and/or &#x

Healthier way? This is wrong. First, to admit your goal is to crush your competitors is completely appropriate. That is the exact way the market is supposed to work. Thoughts about hiding this inherent part of any businesses strategy is, we

"A bank doesn't need a full-time development team for example." How else will all those SVP's at your bank justify their fat salaries? They NEED more minions. Same goes for VC ecosystem. Funny how everyone has a scapegoa

Not disagreeing whether the author hints at some bias with these choice of words, but to interpret this as "anti-capitalist" is absolutely over-the-top. In fact it shows a clear lack of understanding about markets.

> feels like the article has some anti-capitalism undertones... What a knee-jerk sensationalist review of the article. It makes a fair point about why some consumers like the stores, and others welcome its convenience. Is that some major

It looks like you are trying to trick your person about when you sent your message. Because of an introverted personality concern? Seems like a weird use of a timer to me.

Completely different issues, maybe. Notice that the major media outlets started pumping stories about racism right about the time of the occupy protests. This is how politically motivated segregation works in general - make the commoners fi
