Other than the fact that you _did_ vote, I think?

My experience reflects yours. Once you have a SINGLE full-time remote employee your team should operate as a fully-remote team. That means online meetings, online communications, d…

I started learning Python web-development with Django, but it really didn't click until I learned with Flask and other "minimalist" frameworks first. It could have been the availab…

Great if you ignore the exported suffering and rape of the Earth.

But there was still exchange value. Furthermore, the scale and ease of purchase of lootboxes vs. baseball cards are incomparable.

Basic economics have moved far past supply and demand curves, imo. Also demand is not the same as consumption. You can manufacture demand.

I'd suggest Elixir if you're starting from scratch and _don't_ have to deal with too many third-parties. It honestly feels like the holy grail ecosystem if you're comfortable deali…

They do not _demand_ others help them. They ask. There is a difference.

> And users DO see the difference from poorly written web apps. While I agree and personally do get frustrated with poor performance web apps... there are few companies that let yo…

The financial uncertainty would be appalling.

Can we blame agents for acting rationally under capitalism?

Possibly because there isn't. The police were created to be state-sanctioned goons.

Also straight up ignoring the millions of people who die under capitalism.

Being _forced_ to sell sex for survival is less palatable. Not the same as flipping an unnecessary TV or lamp.

And looking at other countries it doesn't tighten social classes more than having a 50k barrier... per year.

Since when was societal change a waste of time? Was the civil rights movement a waste of time? Fighting for worker's rights? Independence?

Especially in the US, teachers often have to assume a parental role and take care of children beyond the scope of their "job". The alternative is to watch children you see every da…

Sure, and then the already privileged people on HackerNews end up continuing to blindly exploit the under-privileged in developing nation. That sounds like a horrible solution.

There is nothing wrong with that, but careers under capitalism are about _signaling value_. I hope you find a place (or have found a place) where you're appreciated. :)

HackerNews is at best center-left. Maybe not that. The world extends beyond America where being on the "left" involves drone bombing.

This thread is fun. The problems are X, Y, Z but not A (even though A results in X, Y, Z). Do people think lobbiests and corporations are somehow operating outside of capitalism?

I'm a complete noob when it comes to RPI, but does it emulate these games well despite not having a strong (or any?) GPU?

Wealthy westerners not understanding that their standard of living exists exclusively because of the rape of the third world. People need to try being self sufficient for even a we…
