I’m not opposing the research, I’m opposing the implementation. Spending trillions of dollars because >1% of the population would be inconvenienced as you showed by having to use less developed or more expensive alternative is stupid.
Investing trillions of dollars into dead ends is, however, the enemy of progress. The ressources we’re throwing at replacing existing cars with EV cars would be enough to implement better solutions.
Yes! And you know what, at that point, given the size of a minimum viable car, we could use some kind of algorithm to match people that are going similar places, and put them together to be more efficient. And I bet we’d find that a lot of the large scale transit patterns are common large parts of the population, so we could even use some kind of segregated, higher speed, more frequent vehicle for that.
While we’re at it, we might as well just warehouse some of these vehicles around places where the common cores end and start, and then we would only have to match one end of the trip.
Oh wait, we already have those in operation in China: https://m.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&v=wvNOTZZeYVs
If your goal is to hurt high finance then anticapitalist theories are correct, not salafism.
And of course it didn’t mean nothing, it was a terrorist attack. It just wasn’t any kind of remotely effective attack against finance or some bullshit like that, it was just an attack against the tallest building because what else would you attack with a plane. I’m not the one giving it meaning that the authors of the attack never gave it.
The entire point of financial capital is that attacks against things like their headquarters mean nothing. That’s not where they get their power. All you’re going to do is murder replaceable cogs for no reason.
I never said working class. I said PMC. Ie, not bourgeois. Being a glorified excel formula or a janitor for a parasitic industry does not make you guilty and it’s not equivalent to being a cop or a soldier. The class interests of those respectively are PMC and working class.
95-97% of the people in a typical high finance office are working class or PMC people. The reason why finance is so lucrative is because it concentrated wealth so effectively. I know this because I was an IT guy in a very very high finance firm a long time ago - the vast majority of people are paper pushing schmucks and excel/PowerPoint contortionists and, like, 3-4 guys are partners or whatever and take the dough. And most of the times they’re going to be at home or on a trip sipping martinis, possibly with clients. Another 4-12 people are going to be sharing a bit of the profits in exchange for overworking the rabble. It’s a bit different nowadays since the quantitative finance people took over a lot of it and they only employ people that could work in tech but yeah traditional finance is mostly a PMC trap. The bourgeoisie is too smart to spend their life in a cubicle. At most there would maybe be the replaceable CEO.
The vast majority of people there were PMC at worst, not bourgeois.
You can buy roblox cards in the street, so actually they do
The goal is that now that they’ve been caught pirating lyrics, they have to pay MusixMatch for their lyrics, perhaps on a per request basis, so they lose money by making it available.
Abaya and the male equivalents are mostly adaptations to arid, sunny climates and predate Islam.
I guess it also depends on where, places that get less applicants are probably much more likely to answer back.
It’s good because you can use it to cut through the corporate bullshit, it’s bad because the people most active in it are prestige and money obsessed freaks. If you make a post without stating how much money you make 90% of your replies will be about that.
On the other hand it’s saved me from multiple very very bad decisions, so it’s good in that sense. It would be cool if it was more generalized and wasn’t just for programmers/salespeople/project managers/quants.
Not true, I’ve gotten a dozen or so.
I wonder why he isn’t. It’s not like he can evade trial for it where he is now.
Well we haven’t learned after have a dozen unprovoked wars in the Middle East and North Africa so why would one more help?
Saturation attacks (fire more cruise missiles than it has interceptors to defend itself) are a pretty sure fire way. You can buy 8000 cruise missiles for the cost of a single carrier.
Alternatively, antiship ballistic missiles, super long range torpedoes/unmanned submarines.
