It's an editorial against the concept, using incongruous words to convey the moral bankruptcy.

I've told bosses before they can have either my early hours or my best hours, but not both. There's so much waste in our work lives trying to fit to some picture of productivity that isn't actually real. We just play the parts we're required to while getting nothing done.

Plus the fundamental insanity of saying efficiency is a single monolithic thing that can only be effectively worked on by a single person. The only reason you have that is because the type of coder these people want to abuse is the same type of person who's bad at designing code. They just keep stumbling on subsuming additional features into the monolith because encapsulation and code design is uninteresting to their reward centers. That's why multiple people can't work on it, not because there's some fundamental inability to effectively partition work during the production of innovative software.

All of these descriptors aptly describe Steven Cheung. I don't know why anyone contacts him for anything. He just produces substanceless verbal diarrhea. You can just not talk to a "communications director" as a journalist.

Plurality.

We can't simultaneously be in a society where productivity goes up faster than wages and AI is going to provide labor for free and one that is worried we won't have enough resources to support the elderly in some indeterminate future.

The retired have already had a lifetime of wages stolen from them to pad capitalists' bank accounts. The excess productivity is there, it's just not available to the broad tax base. Take that back and there's plenty to go around.

I hadn't seen the "blog" discussion before. He's been pig-headed in the past, but that's inexcusable.

There are proactive steps that separate a forced conscript and a bomb dropper.

None of these people voted at all. They literally couldn't vote against this.

The alarms are not going off for women, they're going off for pregnant women, but all these "whatabout men" comments are ignoring that non-pregnant women are also in the ignored group and just making it about men's welfare being discredited. Gives MRA vibes.

Oh look, more fake election results. You need to stop saying things until you can recognize when a "factoid" isn't even remotely close to believable reality.

No they didn't. You just posted a made up a number and did it in the service of dehumanizing a minority population. And the people getting deported (at least now) didn't vote for anyone, they aren't citizens.

This comment is sus as hell. Exactly something a right winger would post to cause mistrust in opposition groups. And even if it isn't, you need to learn some media literacy if you're just parroting an obviously fake percentage like that.

The problem in your logic here is that immigrant children aren't people in their eyes, so fetus or not they can't be murdered.

A REAL MAGA warrior would double down on triggering those lib kids. Van Orden is a RINO CUCK.

This applies to the intolerant trying to gain power to inflict their intolerance on the wider society, not performing odious acts within their own families. It doesn't make sense here at all. We shouldn't tolerate murders because they're murders, not because we're going to end up with a surprise caliphate.

It's because describing a 56 percentage point increase as 56 percent increase implies a totally different result. A 56 percentage point increase on 10% is 66%. A 56 percent increase on 10% is 15.6%.

A) My student government certainly didn't have a budget worthy of boycotting anything.

B) Do it anyway. Boycotts are speech, you're in California, and students aren't obligated to do anything because the school would prefer it. Hell, do it because they told you not to.

C) Don't boycott a specific country. Boycott all countries found to be plausibly engaging in genocide. Or all countries currently occupying extraterritorial land. Or all countries currently engaged in large scale offensive military operations. Give an exception for the US of A because you're so patriotic. Israel is in a small club of rogue nations and we don't generally do business with them.

This is very clearly a first amendment violation. The state can't dictate how you refer to yourself or how others choose to refer to you. This is another one of those cases that shows the judiciary is infested with people who do not even care to pretend to be practicing law anymore.

The leading edge of the Nazi thought machine is already saying it.
