Just to clarify, that base needs to be a lot more flared for it to be safe. Otherwise it definitely looks like Alito's style.

Well obviously the flight attendant job is entry level and meant for teens living at home with their parents! It's not supposed to provide a living wage until you're more senior.

Republicans Flock to Trump’s Trial, Risking Control of the House Floor ( www.nytimes.com )

"The House was in session at the Capitol on Thursday, but thanks to the latest procession of Republicans reporting for duty in front of a Manhattan criminal courthouse to show support for former President Donald J. Trump at his trial, the party risked ceding its control of the floor,” the New York Times reports....

Law and order is a euphemism for free minority labor. Build the laws to keep jails full since those lameo historical killjoys made outright slavery illegal.

It's cool, you just have to drop a grand every year or two to enjoy that gorgeous screen. Think of it like a subscription to a 15% prettier screen for only 5x the price over 10 years.

You might want to rephrase your satire disclaimer. It read to me like "Kari lake fabricated all this," and I already have enough reason to dislike her without something like that.

I mean if they need to raise the prices to pay a fair wage and fewer people can fly, so be it. They're not running a charity and these aren't volunteers we're talking about. They're people working full time jobs to support themselves.

I feel like there's a threshold after which you just can't even question the fairness.

Like if he lost with 20% of the popular vote is he really going to say it was rigged?

It won't happen but the devil's advocate in me wants to believe that at some point his copium runs out and he's humbled.

For one, her title is a question. She's also writing an opinion column. So no, not stating a simple truth.

Maybe it's just a few of us, but it does seem pretty obvious to me that such an article is chumming the waters and the outcome of seeing a few sharks is wholly unsurprising.

I'm not saying it doesn't suck for this person, but product market fit is a thing for open source too. If people need it they'll use it and contribute until something better comes along. If not, your idea wasn't the one. That doesn't mean it's not possible. Nearly my whole life runs on open source software, so it's pretty clearly sustainable.

over the years, using "open source" has become an excuse to avoid paying for software

Um. Yes. And to be blunt: obviously. And in return, I give away software I create for free whether people need it or not, and try to give back in the form of contributions too. But I've never once given up my day job for it. Would that be nice? Maybe. But open source software is more frequently sustained by passionate people using and expanding it for their own projects and not by expecting people to pay you for your efforts when you're likely not paying (nodejs, github, ahem) for the software you're building it on anyway.

I have a wife. No amount of money at the moment could convince us to move to Texas even to try making it better. The risk is already too high.

Would you teach your kids how to pirate?

My gf and I have had discussions about teaching morals to kids. In that vein, I asked myself, would I teach piracy to my kids? Yes, it’s technically illegal and carries inherent risks. But so does teenage sex carry the risks of teenage pregnancy, and so we have an obligation to children to teach them how to practice safe sex....

Louisiana lawmakers vote to remove lunch breaks for child workers, cut unemployment benefits ( www.nola.com )

A Louisiana House committee voted Thursday to repeal a law requiring employers to give child workers lunch breaks and to cut unemployment benefits — part of a push by Republicans to remove constraints on employers and reduce aid for injured and unemployed workers....

Sadly I doubt they'll legalize it. It might take too much income away from the poor landlord class!

Yes but are we doing depth first or breadth first? Or maybe Dijkstra if we can come up with a reasonable cost function?

Taxes have that feature too, sadly. No system is perfect.

YSK : Dark patterns among large companies are becoming more mainstream ( youtu.be )

While it is no secret that exploitative practices are interlaced with capitalistic tendencies, the practices are becoming intolerable. Signing up to pay usually takes only two clicks that are prominently visible whereas cancelation options are hidden away in deep settings requiring multiple clicks. Pricing often feel arbitrary...

Free money has dried up, so competition is drying up a bit too. And without free money, the big guys are feeling some squeeze and now want to extract the rent they always planned to eventually extract.

I watched them mindlessly for a while, starting recently. But then the algorithm just started showing me like the same 15 videos and nothing else. One or two new ones here and there, but it's definitely fully lost any interest I had.
