What a truly devastating outcome. Amazon has no idea how to run healthcare, and they will apply their "squeeze the customer, squeeze the provider" ethos to it. I'm so sorry for all the employees and patients at one medical.

I have. I've lived here for nearly 40 years. I've been active in politics here and I've experience with both the data and the anecdotes. Seattle has less crime then it did 40, 30, and 20 years ago. The past three years were e

The goal is simple - individual discrimination and systemic discrimination are fundamentally different things. And systemic discrimination is what has been used to oppress minorities in the US for as long as the US has existed. Indeed, I be

https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/data/is-seattle-dy... Look at these graphs. Crime has consistently fallen. The article you linked is discussing a recent uptick after a stable period of low crime. They&#x

There is a categorical difference between an individual discriminating based on race, and a dominant culture discriminating based on race.

Seattle is doing tons of stuff. They recently upzoned a huge amount of the city, approved ranked choice voting, approved social housing, expanded rail, fixed a major bridge failure before it failed, and plenty more. Crime rates are down, th

My point is that people other than management influence your career. From interviews to mentorship to peer feedback there's lots of places where discrimination can creep in.

Interesting. It seems like the mRNA itself breaks down in most cases like expected, but sometimes the particles/packages that contain the mRNA don't ever get opened, meaning the mRNA is never processed or exposed to the body.

I've lived here almost 40 years. In the past 15 years homelessness has risen by 50% but so has population. Rent has doubled, but crime is falling. In fact, we're seeing record low property and violent crime rates. The last couple

I would assume that anywhere you work, the opportunity for discrimination exists independent of who is a manager.

These problems don't go away if you ignore them. And your solution of not "importing different cultures" sure sounds like you want an ethnostate...

I've lived in Seattle for almost 40 years. The homeless issue is not really unique to our city, and there's a hugely complex systemic set of issues causing it. (Not least of which is the incredibly high median income driving up ho

Eastside also buses homeless folks out (or at least used to). They very much care about the facade of cleanliness on the Eastside but not about people nearly as much. And yeah, agree with you and the parent poster - the issue isn't uni

Housing has gotten more expensive and there's been a huge wave of immigration to the region. I've lived here 35 years, the resistance from single family homeowners on any push to improve is staggering.

Workers, maybe it's time we started collectively pushing back? I don't care if it's unions, or work stoppages, or guilds, or industrial action, or what. But they've been squeezing workers too hard.

Both can be true. Just because one is worse does not make the other ok. A worse situation does not trivialize a bad situation.

People do this all the time with any web connected service that accepts data. People use open strings in AWS services, like lambda function names, to store arbitrary bits.

Steam responds to DMCA, as far as I'm aware, and doesn't have a separate process.

Valve could, hypothetically, be the target of a suit for damages if they do not comply with the DMCA counter claim. Odds are good that valve will just do everything it can to be by the book and get out of the way.

So, if they aren't the copyright holder (as in this case) they have committed perjury by asserting they are.

I mean, there is. It's perjury. And the target of a false claim can sue the party who made the claim for damages and attorney's fees.
