It seems kind of silly to expect all media companies to immediately cover a story that broke less than 12 hours earlier.
But it’s starting to happen. Happy?
Are Elon Musk and Vladimir Putin Talking? https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/25/business/dealbook/musk-putin-trump.html?smid=nytcore-android-share
Is Wall Street Journal not American?
Price increases seem to take long residence in people’s minds. Prices are noticeably way higher than in 2019. Whether wage increases make up for that is kind of beside the point, psychologically. Collectively, big price hikes are traumatic.
Economists correctly talk about inflation as a rate of price increase, and they correctly consider real wages as a useful metric of well-being. But economists are academics and we use the word “inflation” in a colloquial sense, in a politicized real world, where it means “I have noticed that prices rose is recent memory and every time I go to the store I feel cheated.”
But to be clear, it’s not in my top 10 either (mine starts with climate, democracy, and freedom). Just sharing how I see the disconnect on inflation as a hot topic.
I know this is a meme community and probably not the right place to ask. But the meme prompted my question and I promise this is a good faith question.
If labor is entitled to all it creates (i agree! In principle), who determines what that is? For example - someone operating an injection molding machine might “create” a million doodads in a year. But the machine and the material and the electricity and the QA of those doodads are all created/done by someone else. How is that divvied up?
Personally I am leaning toward UBI funded by a capital tax, along with a functional labor market, as kind of a solution here. But I’d appreciate any easy-to-digest references.
Not even a concept of a plan?
If Raffensperger doesn’t personally handcuff each board member he is Literally Hitler
Seriously though I would appreciate OP’s thoughts on what additional actions he should take
I would love to see a detailed technical explanation for how this would be possible.
I design battery-powered electronics for a living and I can’t think of any design that would let a battery explode with the violence these did, let alone on command. Unless it were deliberate.
IMO at least one of those omitted words was not unnecessary
That’s kind of an unnecessary leap.
NYTimes reports that IDF claims Hamas killed them shortly before they were found. I thought I recalled seeing elsewhere that they were claimed to have been shot, but I can’t find that source at the moment.
Of course, how credible is the IDF?
From the article:
Conscientiousness, one of the Big Five personality traits, is defined as a tendency to control one’s impulses, be persistent, act dutifully, and live up to one’s obligations to others.
Conscientiousness has been linked to a variety of positive traits and behaviors, such as responsibility, dependability, hard work, goal orientation, self-control, and leadership. Some conscientious people, however, happen to be dogmatic, inflexible, unquestioningly obedient, and intolerant of uncertainty (i.e., they tend to see things in black-and-white).
Nah, I was born in 1987, and 2012 is definitely when it went to shit with the “tea party”
Well I wasn’t conscripted to be on his detail (and neither were you) so i guess they didn’t do all they could
Yeah.
I fear that my original comment might be misconstrued so I just want to make it (probably annoyingly) explicit:
FWIW I fully believe Trump did this and worse, but that’s just me
The lawsuit itself appears to be real, not fake.
The allegations may not be true.
It’s subtle, but there’s a difference
I assume MFBR was supposed to be MFBC, and you can see their summary of why they assessed the Guardian that way Here
We’ve probably already seen the major stuff from the house committees investigation. If this does anything, it will only make it a little more fresh
Regarding flight: where to? Of similar “democracies” Europe and Canada have similarly troubling trends. Scandinavia? Australia? SE Asia? Are they any better, really?
I understand the gripes about NYT wrt trans rights and Palestine and general “both sides” bs, but within this context about endorsements it’s worth noting that they are publishing a big series of pro-Harris editorials in the last couple weeks of the election.
