‘Them’ is also a valid pronoun when you don’t know or are unsure if gender!


If my family didn’t accept the fact that I’m aroace, I would forget about them and change my life.
Thats an insane amount if privilege to think that it applies to everyome everywhere.


If its of a certain size yes, but the planes that actually crash everyday don’t get reported widely because they’re tiny aircraft


If you listen carefully, you can hear them moving the goal posts from “countering Facebook knowledge” to “must be universally better in every scenario”


Why only the past?


No, but being wrong makes you wrong.
There is a world where the NDP is a viable candidate, and Layton proved that.


I’ve never found it more useful than the rubber duck my first senior dev gave me.
Explaining the problem and explaining your code has been more reliable to me, even if to a rubber duck. (Well now he has friends but still)
That doesn’t make it not a tax. It makes it not an income tax.
Sorry auto correct got the best ofe there. Just what a tax is.
Its just a charge levied by the government. You think taxes are only income taxes, but thats just one type of tax.
In the same way tarrifs are also taxes, so would be making an employer pay for govermenet benifit, would also be a tax.
I don’t think you understand what a century tax is. Because thats what that is.
If they’re not paying enough, why are we subsidising them? Why are they still benifical?
Do you think if Walmart had to pay all of the food stamp costs of their employees, do you think Walmart would dissapear and replaced by nothing?
I also encourage you to look up how much federal tax Amazon pays
Same statement. They don’t pay corporate tax either.
Look, I’m not trying to assign humans a lower value or anything. I’m just saying that from an accounting perspective, most employees are just a necessity to keep the thing running, like electricity. The process of R&D is a bit of an exception and some businesses will even give their software or other intellectual property a value in the books and depreciate it over time. But even then, the investment is into the product, not the people. Because the people can bail on you at any time, barring some special exceptions.
I’m not gonna muddle the expense vs investment, because either way, your still devauling the actual humans in this. Trying so say your not, then dobjuag that, undermines the first line.
Thats my issue. Is that the language we use to talk about real people matters. And talking about it like they don’t contribute, just expense is a huge part of it.
What, the 0 dollars the billionaire pay?
If they don’t contribute their share to taxes, why would I as a citizen want them?
He could’ve made more money if he didn’t have to pay it. Similarly to the raw materials, electricity, and every other unavoidable business expense.
Citation needed with data. Because I’d argue pay on the factory is also proportional to quality output. So would they have still made the money with a worse product?
Nope!
Information can only travel at the speed of light.
During my undergraduate CERN did this experiment (a decade ago now).
And they had the shocking result of the second wave function collapsed faster than c.
That was until a clock was found to be loosley connected and caused a timing error, that would account for the slower than c speed.
No, stable is two years away, hence the early access
