  • You're right. There's zero Jewish representation in the Arab world while Arabs make up about 20% of the Israeli population (and hold positions of power within the country). Israel is a tolerant society while saud, Qatar, etc. are largely intolerant of Jewish existence (they genocided their own Jewish populations).

  • Milley says military is not woke: ‘I’m not even sure what that word truly means’
  • The right doesn't use language genuinely, so personally I don't really care to consider their usages. The actual definition of words doesn't matter to conservatives, it's not how their brains work. That's why it's so easy for them to form a big tent party, they just need to say meaningless feel good phrases like "law and order", "1776", or "make America great again" to attract voters. That's also why when they get power, they dissolve into infighting and can't govern at all, because it turns out those phrases mean different things to all of them.

  • Vivek Ramaswamy proposes mass federal layoffs as more GOP hopefuls look to slash US government
  • You're sort of right but painfully wrong on so many things. The US government doesn't mint its own currency, it borrows from the Federal reserve. Congress spends money into existence (by borrowing from the Fed), but then we pay back the Fed via taxes.

  • What is a well known 'public secret' in the industry you work in that the majority of outsiders are unaware of?
  • Poor auditing? Mate, they only audit for you doing what you say you're doing. And if you say you play peek-a-boo, and the auditors watch you play peek-a-boo, you're golden. ISO auditors aren't experts at whatever it is you're manufacturing and measuring, they are only experts on ISO standards. ISO trusts that you as the manufacturer are the expert in what you're making.

  • What is a well known 'public secret' in the industry you work in that the majority of outsiders are unaware of?
  • ISO9000 is a joke. They don't care what you do, they only care that you do what you said you're doing. So if your inspection process is "we play peek-a-boo with the widget and if it's still on the table when we open our eyes, it's good to ship". ISO only cares that you have a peek-a-boo procedure and your inspectors are trained on how to play peek-a-boo.

  • Supplier Caught Distributing Fake Parts for World’s Top-Selling Jet Engine
  • Most metal parts testing is destructive. I.e., once you test the parts, they are destroyed and you can't use them anymore. That's why the trust I certificates is so important. They certify that metal from the same batch passed those tests. That's why it's a huge safety risk if the certs are fake, there's no guarantee that the metal can meet the requirements, and no way to test without breaking the parts.

  • Jordan Peterson learns that freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences
  • Your argument is purely semantic and not really substantive unless you define what a "bad person" is. That'll be different to everyone, so without a common operating definition of a "bad person" your point, while technically true, doesn't really mean anything.

  • Tesla founders
  • Ok but the Wikipedia for Tesla's history says that musk specifically did not take a role in company operations, he was just hypercritical of design.

    So technically he shouldn't be a co founder, he didn't fill that role.
