I've definitely never been guilty of this. /s
Alright, I'll never, ever write something this way now. Good to know.
Absolutely not. Demographic data shows it's shit, income distribution data is best explained by a random walk process (neat graphic explainer here), and all the data on startups and investing show that there's no free lunch; capitalism actually does ensure everything gives the same steady return on average.
Every rich person won some sort of lottery. Even the bona-fide engineers are never the only ones that could have invented whatever thing - as technical person myself.
Honestly this seems less evil than a lot of stuff Google itself does.
There's a whole bunch of different movements that got crammed into "environmentalism", and the it's kind of confused as a result. GMOs being another stark example, where anti-science people highly oppose it, conservationists suspect it, and people concerned with adapting to or fighting climate change see nothing but potential.
Apparently they at least tried.
I'm guessing nobody checks anything at this point. They hear a rumour, they bomb it. And, of course, there's going to be a small but significant number of people on the Israeli side fabricating rumours whole-cloth.
Honestly the less rights parents have the better, IMO. They need certain rights just to operate but man, some of them are very shit people.
That's a good point. Supporting all hardware in particular is a pretty big ask. Maybe you could cleverly fit memory management into a small amount of code, but a pile of arbitrary standards can't really be meaningfully compressed.
In the video he states the OS he uses works on the original Pentium processor which came out in 1993. Four years after Reagan went out of office.
I was wondering. That didn't look like an 80's computer.
I wonder if this is actually an effective motivator for most people. It's just way too easy to look away.
