But then again it can't be a good thing to reduce the income of the young just so the old can retire earlier.

wow, that just totally blows me away. His stating of his job helps validate that what he says is not just some Joe Schmoe blowing smoke. It's critical to the conversation. And our government has no right to prevent us from using ANY word whenever we speak.

just goes to show that there are short-sighted idiots on both sides of the political spectrum

I find myself struggling more to pull a specific word out of memory than I did when I was younger. I have chalked that up to the amount of information held in my memory, and that my search algorithm isn't very efficient. Sometimes the answers to a question take days to bubble up out of my memory banks.

I have a friend that was turned down by the police force because he tested too smart. We were all amazed what that said about our police force.

I'm in Atlanta, and our company does this too. So it's not just SV that is keeping salaries low.

We would probably end up with Edith Snowden (Like Bradley, er Chelsea Manning). Seriously - with Gitmo et al, why would anyone put themselves at the tender mercies of our justice system when high-level personnel have it out for them?

we already have a Constitution. how many more laws do we need to state the obvious? The problem isn't a lack of laws, it's a lack of an Enforcement group that is above partisan politics.

So that is the price of your soul? Noted.

there is a national healthcare system, just not 'free' healthcare.

I'd say that's why they buy the companies...

Once they begin prioritizing traffic, does this eliminate their safe-harbor status? Could be a double-edged sword for them.

Here's a newsflash for ya: DON'T BREAK THE LAW!!! If they weren't breaking they law there would be no need to send them to jail. I grew up around a bunch of potheads and saw by their example that I never wanted to be involved with drugs. Instead of spending my time getting drunk and high I spent my time in the library reading. I grew up in a trailer park, and now live in a middle-class suburb. Because I was interested in video games, I learned about computers.

Poor people are held down by the chains of their own bad habits, not by rich people.

right, and the decades of classroom time they put in, and the complexity of their field has NOTHING to do with how much they get paid. There will be some bad actors in any group, but to paint both groups with such a broad brush is doing a disservice to the ones that engage in those professions because they have a passion for the law or want to heal people.

echo chamber depending on first (maybe most numerous) adopters that self-reinforces by driving away dissenting voices. I agree 100%

Indoor soccer field.

How about the President release his college transcripts? "Most transparent administration in history"...

not only that, they've created a novel way to trap people inside a burning building. This is a terrible idea.

22. Don't listen when your workers show you a better way. 23. Continue to use one technology "because we've always done it that way" 24. Waste your workers time with bureaucracy.

there have been studies discussing density of population and rising mental illness rates in rats & mice. I wonder if the two are connected?

the Catholic church did a bit of pruning too, in the 3rd century AD. Council of Nicea

and that may be the biggest success of the action: that the leaders have to live with a little voice inside them, telling them that they did wrong there. Depending on the person it could either make them into a total tyrant or push them more toward a democractic view.

"Nobody is accountable though. Who do we yell at? We can't blame the line employees. They are just state machines with no free will [N]. Their managers aren't empowered do anything either except harass you even more." Bullshit. Following orders is no excuse.

so a three year pre-trial detention period is OK with you? What about the right to a speedy and fair trial?

why convert from photon to electron back to photon? Why not just use mirrors to focus light on lasing material and create a laser directed to a solar panel/s on the Earth and then convert to electrons?

or hacker news </zing! I'll just take my hat as I leave>

kind of like an asymptotic line, optimizing for efficiency - we spend more and more time making less and less of a difference. The problem is, with companies the size we have nowadays, even a small percentage improvement leads to runaway success, so every company is incentivized to continue optimizing.

Maybe we should limit the maximum size of a company?
