What people? What is the definition of success? You can't appeal to something happening in the real world if you don't say what you mean. You can paint up any world you like in you…

Well, that's a good thing. Being "neutral" _is_ taking a side. It means you're taking an amoral stance even in big questions. Every organization has a stance. We're just become use…

I've also had terrible performance with Eigen when compared to LAPACK. Would not recommend unless you want to spend time profiling performance issues.

"You people"? Is your paranoia getting to you? 20% is an interesting number, though. The percentage of Palestinians who were Arabs in 1918 was around 90%. I wonder if that might ha…

I'm going to need some more basis than that. Otherwise this is just the good old "Anyone who criticizes Israel is Hamas" trope.

Ah, yes. So if Piker, when looking at the Houthi/Israel dichotomy, is more sympathetic to the Houthis, that means he adopts all of their positions? That doesn't follow. Not even a …

For me, the only one who has ever used the standard terms as a floor has been the employer. The union has always backed me up when I wanted higher pay. I'll give an example. I've h…

Those legal protections are easily eroded without unions. Just look at Finland. Here, the current government first made it illegal for unions to strike when the government takes ac…

Was this in the US? In the US, anti-union action by the government and employers has been extra egregious historically. This has obviously impacted unions in the US. There's also L…
