A corporate is literally, legally, a "person", but not a "natural person". AI "unnatural person". And since it's "incorporated", it has a body too :-)

Since a person has a body and an intelligence it's also a non-natural aka "artificial" intelligence.

I assume that you refuse to be paid more than a construction workers then?

Part of the legal definition of a salaried professional is that the job entails the use of judgment.

Outside of the MAGA contingent, people hope to build a better life than the previous generation had. Working 50 years at the steel mill isn't the American Dream.

If you live your life in a bubble apart from the rest of humanity, and you are happy, good for you. If you couldn't find friends in high school, sympathy for you. But most humans are social creatures who put value on having community.

ALEC is a conservative organization with 98% Republican membership.

Most stores lower price on product as it ages, if they don't sell out. they don't waste time negotiating one-off deals for a single item purchase.

Parent comment didn't mention price controls.

That photo is so dark and blurry that I can't see the holes.

How would you enforce that? How would you find and ban AstroTurf? (Thank you, Google GBoard, for the marketing autocorrect built-in)

Marketers haven't overrun those like they have on reddit?

What on Earth are you talking about? Social services are massively underfunded, despite getting a lot of funding, because the need is gigantic.

Quite a lot of that funding is just compensating for some of centuries of theft, from slaveowners of the 19th century to predatory rural banks of the 20th Century to coordinated corporate wage depression of the 21st century.

Surveys are one thing. Votes are another. Voters have consistently voted to put oil companies in the highest seats of power for decades, because they are "pro-business".

No one does. The mining rights are stolen by corrupt governments and then given away to cronies.

Likewise, don't insinuate people are ugly or don't deserve sleep.

For all of the Eastern bloc's problems, education was phenomenal by global standards.

I suspect that's a natural consequence of good people being held down in poverty by tyrannical government.

People are happiest either slightly before they have kids or slightly after their kids turn 18, depending on whether they had children late or early. Childless married people coast through marriage years.

Why is it better to have to pretend to have everything out of control, and for living a healthy life to be shameful instead ideal?

This mentality that success and maturity and health are evil is societal suicide.

It's my older. Aesop published the gable of Sour Grapes.

You overlooking the critical term: variable-length.

Haskell is not declarative. It is a specific form of lazy + graph-reductive. Thinking of it as declarative leads to polynomial exponential runtime cost in CPU/memory and not understanding why or how to fix it.

Strong disagree. I don't remember passwords like I remembered phone numbers. Perhaps because I don't say them out loud, hand write them, and lunch them on a tactile keyboard frequently

I never heard of tui (an ironic name for a gui), but I used ddd.

The authors advocate for run of the mill rdbms plus their sharing system.

The authors are the owners of Google Slicer, a sharding system that enables stateless frontends to connect to sharded data stores (user stickiness).

Iran has zero ability to win a regional war against the US, unless you consider bombing Israel to be critical damage to the US, or if the US has no stomt for Iranian casualties.

I can't comprehend why national governments would engage in backroom deals to allow false flag attacks on themselves, knowing they'd be leaked immediately.

...which Iran claimed was violating Iranian airspace and the shooting Trump claimed was a rogue general's mistake, not a state act of aggression.

Trump is all in on Obama's drone warfare policy

Counterparties don't care if a treaty is withdrawn from or merely violated.

It's disrespectful to deny the agency of the oil companies and military contractors who sat in the White House for many years.

Border disputes does not a rogue nation make. Else Pakistan and Israel and Russia and China and USA are rogue nations, which rather dilutes the term.
