The manager-gone-founder has sympathies and apologies for the destructive ideology of his capitalist master. Of course. The majority of managers have this same character -- it's th…

Yep, you're right. There's a belligerent, Randian dream behind that 1000% nonsense that always seems to be accompanied by some far-fetched narrative of climbing the ladder.

You sound like an employee who thinks they're an employer.

Awesome! I used the Intensity Shuttle for USB 3.0 on a Macbook (OS X) to develop the plugin. It costs $190 and works pretty well, but can't capture 1080p @ 60fps (only 720p/1080i).…

I coded the Blackmagic support for OBS Studio. It was only slightly nightmarish. https://github.com/jp9000/obs-studio/tree/master/plugins/dec...

There is no voluntarism in slavery, even if it's of the wage variety. But yes, sure! The employers are the oppressed class. All of us plebeians are so ungrateful of their estate in…

The means of production that you use are privately owned by your employer, that's all they provide. Maybe they also do some managerial/clerical labor to lubricate the interaction o…

I wasn't being reductionist, that is not my world view; I recognize many different hierarchies. But wealth is an extremely important dimension and the one under examination here. S…

I think this is tangential, but you're very correct! This alone makes you question the morality of capitalism. Your employer necessarily steals some of the value that you create, o…

Wages are absolutely hierarchical. The people who have higher wages have higher rank/status/authority. You just pushed the blame off to the market, which needs the exact same moral…

Hierarchy requires justification, and inequality requires justification, since always and forever. You should be required to try to convince someone working three manual labor jobs…

Of course, you're right. "The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles." —Guess Who

Employers are necessarily oppressive and may fire employees over this sort of notification if the listed project or the AngelList profile in general is against business interests. …

> I blame the stock market pressure towards growth. Every capitalist mechanism insists on growth. That's literally what capital is.

Reporting for roll call. Once you get cope with abandoning all of the metaprogramming-heavy APIs a la ActiveRecord that have been front and center in pop web dev, it's quite lovely…

I loved GameMaker so much as a kid. I was sad to see it get taken over by money. :( Are there any modern free & open source alternatives? Correction: I remember the underlying scri…

a) To this end I agree that my simplification is too emotional. b) I typically regard such actions as means to sustain profit, but I won't deny the exceptions to this rule. c) I sc…

I haven't yet read the last volume of Capital, so I am unprepared to take on the line of discussion in regards to the tendency for the rate of profit to fall. Nonetheless, I fail t…

>I'm not sure how factors of production (including durable capital goods) can possibly be an "enemy" of anything. I'm a Marxist. So in the aforementioned sense, capital is only wea…

OP is looking at people who direct and sustain a capitalist enterprise's internal processes. These people (managers, HR) are hired by the capitalists to optimize internally for pro…

Let's Encrypt has a public API for managing certificates. One use case where this is handy is for creating/modifying certificates for each customer-controlled domain/subdomain of y…
