There is no doubt that the unpaid internship is exploitative, moreso than the already discouraging/tiring path to a first job programming. But I also think you were right to accept it as a step towards launching a career. It's something you will never have to do a second time... onward and upward
What was the situation in 1973? I don't think we're actually in the worst stage of automobilism right now, honestly. I think we're still in really bad shape in North America, but the worst of it must have been some point between the time Gorz is writing and like 2010. All conjecture, not basing this on anything but impressions from some reading on the topic.
I believe as individuals and society we are over reliant on unnecessarily advanced technology and should seek alternatives to distance ourselves from this.
I feel about the same way, to the point I don't even really want print media to die. We're still looking at something right in front of us, but at least it isn't a screen. I've been framing it mentally as part of an intentional relationship I want to have with technology, and I think generally others should consider this too. Adopt technology selectively and critically, don't just let them foist new consumer durables on you, LOL.
Think it'd be pretty easy to tell a kid you can't, or just not inform them that there is an opt-out process in the first place, but I could get it if some people object to the lying by omission
Makes sense, a limit as strict as 8 minutes for the youngest kids seriously inhibits basic communication, so really this either has to iterated on or a great deal of parents will just opt out so it has no effect.
I am writing in C (the CLI, which I'll just have the bots use) and have never used any databases, would using the sqlite interface straightup with C and some cursory reading of docs be too much, do you think? Course I can switch it all to c++ and then there appears to be at least one nice ORM
BTW, do you guys think I should use databases for this? The one formula uses a list of 4,000 easy words, and storing lists of common proper nouns will help with flagging them. Also, I could probably get vocab level data for tens of thousands of words... better in a DB than a ginormous hash table or trie?
lmfao american conception of "terrorists", just video game mobs that kill anybody and everybody. what issue would the IRA have with a bunch of internet Marxists who are probably entirely pro-Irish republicanism
To quote @Giyuu: I do not not live in China/am not Chinese/do not know [much of] the language/etc. But from the outside, it seems that due to reform & opening up, Chinese go through much of the same shenanigans we do, whether it will be eventually solved through planned economy or not. They have bosses, landlords, and cops; they work too much and compete for stressful jobs and rigorous education, and there is sure to be some amount of corruption even with the victories of the Tigers & Flies campaign... a friend from Tieling, Liaoning province personally complained of his folks having to pay bribes but did not get into why.
I think a modern socialist planned economy fit for our situation would come out with a very pemanent, modular, and repairable cell phone. It would resemble an Apple product in no way, making use of open source hardware and software and with an ideological commitment against planned obsolescence.
Glad to hear the automobilism is being rejected. Really it was one of my biggest worries about the direction China is going, that there seemed to be lots of cars, but I had yet to make an investigation and I like what I'm hearing :)
It's a nitpick, but we mean the class right? Gotha programme etc., workers as individuals need to contribute some value to the commons and society more broadly, sort of thing. But that's still the workers getting everything: First as an individual and second as a member of socialist society.
I played it for a couple weeks until I got tired of it for now. Me and the gf really like it!! It is an awesome continuation of the TerraFirmaCraft vision.

Great magazine, loved the articles about modern sailing ships and sewage handling by aquaculture.

40 minutes is completely workable!

Wow, I'd think somebody in a shit gig like that would be induced to develop some solidarity

I'm considering starting a lemmygrad whitelist server with a couple mods. Maybe you guys would be interested!
comrade Jacob must have studied something well-compensated or become very skilled to pull 70k a year!
