I'm genuinely curious.

Wow. I'm marking my calendar. This is incredible.

Some people don’t want to work

All we can be certain of is that they don't want to spend most of their lives under a dictatorship, and that's fair imo.

Quit the bad ones, join the good ones.

It's literally a recession. IT just experienced historically massive layoffs over the last 6 months. Could you be any more out of touch?

I know exactly why we don’t have such an amendment.

Why?

If you live in the US, it's absolutely legal, and even if it's not then it doesn't matter because you live in the US under a dictator (your boss).

According to a Marxist definition of communism (classless society) neither Cuba or the Soviet Union are or were communist.

"Communist" Cuba has 64 physicians per 10K population, which is 2nd in the entire world for physicians per capita.

During the pandemic, they were sending droves of doctors to Europe. They offered to assist in NYC but Trump turned them away as our population dwindled. Famously, when a British cruise ship with ill passengers aboard was denied by ports in Florida, Cuba took them in and saved many lives.

And you can trace the origins and overwhelming priorities of the Federal Government to bare brutal bourgeoise capitalism.

Socialism or Barbarism.

Quality masks require actual capital investments, so longer term commitments. Toxic hand sanitizer can turn a profit with practically zero capital investment. This is precisely how capitalism works. Socialism or barbarism.

That's a disgustingly low bar. Have some self-respect.

Because Visa and Mastercard lobbied congress and the current administration.

"Americans are survivors and Americans will survive this because America is the greatest country in the world!"

Stupid article, but funny that the title gives a nod to Karl Marx's "history moves in a straight line" analysis. Liberals have been furiously criticizing this idea for 150 years.

People working in healthcare generally do care about improving health outcomes.

If you knew the first thing about capitalism, you would know that what one "cares about" has only the most contingent relation to the end product of their labor. In other words, what the workers care about is effectively meaningless because the workers are not in charge; the profit is.

No, it does not. I have read the full text and it was garbage to my mind; another nonsense apology for liberal society's degeneracy.

Liars (humans) are often unconcerned with facts or truth either. More often these days, they are only concerned with profit. Are unconfirmed lies in the pursuit of mere profit somehow not lies?

It was given a sequence of words and tasked with producing a subsequent sequence of words that satisfy with high probability the constraints of the model.

This is exactly the sort of behavior that produces many of the lies that humans tell everyday. The "constraints of the model" are synonymous with the constraints of a person's knowledge of the world (which is their model).

Maybe if the media wasn't effectively an appendage of the state and transparently lying on a regular basis, citizens would be a lot less vulnerable to bullshit.

people already cannot tell whether code has backdoors

I was feeling crazy after reading that.

Where and how is the democratic oversight implemented?

What democratic oversight? This is the United States we're talking about lol.

The question was not about unionization, but the accomplishments of said unions, which remain to be seen. Unions that lack the strength to strike are a net negative.

The mayor elect didn't even support Bernie Sanders lol.

DSA membership has been nosediving for the past 2 years because DSA is effectively an appendage of the Democratic Party.

If its immoral to have more or different privileges than someone else, thats literally communism

This is not quite the Marxist definition of communism, but it is a lot closer than I would expect to find on HN. I am surprised.

Teacher strikes and unionization efforts have been winning

In the aggregate, it is in fact replacing programmers; just not all of them.

Absolutely. It's such a load of bullshit.

This issue was with the ASRock WRX80 Creator R2.0, so I got the R1.0 version instead. Now I'm wondering if it resets the bios on wake.

It distracts from the economy. Simple as that.

I think we just have increasingly lower standards. It's not a word.
