Universities have, IMHO, two reasons to exist. One is to further knowledge. The other is to teach. Just because info is free doesn't mean it is easy to learn, easy to digest.
But. Mamdani just had a good PR campaign. The bar majority of the "good" work he has done was actually some by someone else, the state, former administration.
This isn't a "changed"title. The title matches the linked "newspaper" article. But the op was saying that the research paper the article talks about has a better, easier to read, title.
Why are you comparing apples to oranges? Implementing a speed limit, it size limit on a computer is just idiotic. It works be again to saying, no you can't use a calculator to do the arithmetic, you must use pen and paper, because I said so. Which means who ever doesn't implement this arbitrary speed limit is going to eat you for lunch. This is a Luddite argument.
Yeah, I can argue against it. How much time did he spend on it, how much is games on the user the (as in, is this a common use path or an uncommon one) you may have doubled the speed but did it go from several seconds to a few, it a split second to a half split second? Are there other things that should be implemented before speeding things up. Etc etc.
As someone who lived in the West my entire life, not many people would call a couple of swing sets and a slide a park. A playground maybe, but not a park. Now I believe the city would officially call it a park, but that doesn't make it a park.
It shouldn't be. Of course I think sometimes it has to be. But it is supposed to represent the employees in a collective bargaining agreement. That is it.
You could argue they should be involved with some politics around labor laws.
Personally I think the American banking system is garbage. The technology is awful. But the government requirements are too onerous and potentially unconstitutional. The government doesn't need to know who I am, the bank doesn't need to know the customer.
19k is a fairly small business. I mean it isn't "small business" but it is small relative to many others.
Large companies aren't anytime new. Ford had 100k in the 1920s. Then you have places like new York City government that has 309k people.
I would prefer to have many smaller companies than a could of big ones. But 19k isn't really that many people
Ignoring the fact that we aren't using money for rocket fuel (that is people are benefitting from us spending that money) the potential upside is immense. There are a time of resources available in the asteroids and a moon base makes mining those resources easier and cheaper.
Because it isn't a free market in the USA. And those that regulate it don't seem to care. Or maybe it is those that have been granted a monopoly do everything they can to retain said monopoly.
Things would be different if we actually had a free market
Lockstep? Once the major company did it, it was easy for others to follow. No conspiracy here.
You are right, it is about controlling labor, watching the workforce, justifying the office expense. But I think a lot of your questions are just coincidental.
As much as I enjoy working from home (been doing it for most of the last two decades) there are some advantageous to new hires working in the office.
California, by density, is that highly populated. I didn't really like the idea is "hey we need to build something that uses a toxic process, by just don't build it here. Build it somewhere else." Unless that somewhere else is in outer space.
"Their work is, by nature, uncredited." Uhm... Most graffiti is actually just a tag, the artist's tag. So, most graffiti is literally just the artists credit.
And, by definition, they are vandals, not heroes.
The title clearly states that the average founder doesn't grow old as fast as everyone else. I assume ur actually meant that the age of the average find increases 6 months every year. So, no, not very clear
Well, no. You can't just revoke a license.
As far as owning the software in the device, I works would argue that you do own a copy of it. I'm sure there is some buried tos claiming you just own a license to run it, and I know this is still being litigated. But when the average person purchases someone their expectation is that they've purchased it, not licensed it.
You won't make 100% of the users happy. In fact if argue you would make the majority of the users unhappy. I don't want to have to realize my browser for every web site. Is rather have a website that is fairly easy to read without me doing anything. I think most people would want that.
