Minimum wage laws when instituted were racist. To this day it still detrimentally affects individuals trying to enter a work force by creating an artificial barrier.
Currently, there is a push to increase the minimum wage to $15. If I oppose this on my concept of what it is, a vestige of systematic racism that contributes further to that system, then what do I make of proponents of the increase who argue that voting against it is racist.
The entire endeavor is a waste of time, the politicos will do what they want and then tell you why we should hate Eurasia.
Google tv on the outside of the cardboard box shows the old version without the latest version.
When you update the system to the latest version, it installs a forced ad rotation on the top. You have no control over that content, and there is no way to get rid of it. Pass.
Metrics:
It is easy for them to keep track of metrics, including the following:
* did someone pause on a post, mark it
* time on page,
* whatever other crazy metric you can show to advertisers
* in-line advertisements
Also, the walled garden makes it so you get the endorphin hit of clicking the button and it can algorithmically entice you back with notifications and other engagements.
Green new deal is absent of nuclear energy and does not include anything about base load mitigation. Instead there will be magical battery storage.
The affordable care act included chiropractor and acupuncture.
California is under a strict lockdown that has been admitted in their documents that it will never return to green and the WHO is returning to their previously held statement that lockdowns hurt the poor disproportionately and do not provide ultimate success.
Masks do not work, then work, then only special types of cloth (two layer gaiters no, two layer cloths, yes).
HCQ with zinc does work in early treatments until endorsed by a party leader, opposition locks out doctors (trained medical professionals) from using the drug in certain states with no scientific backing.
Science in the political realm is non existent if it interferes with the scoring of political points.
It is not Republicans / Democrats are anti science, it is the political positions each side is beholden to that drives these narratives and then are used to make the opposing side look dumb.
The three fifths compromise was reached to reduce the effect that you are bringing up. The northern and southern states saw the writing in the wall for slavery when the constitution was signed.
Virginia’s part was already merged, Maryland should remerge.
This is a good use of twitter to apply engineering and figure out issues.
The problem is that PG&E’s incentives are significantly misaligned to not be successful:
1. Crazy renewable edicts that do not have base power assumptions (see blackouts over summer).
2. Maintenance programs that are not overseen by a third part. This story. Please read just to see the sheering off of the c hook and the fact it might have been 100 years old!
At the onset of the Coronavirus, the media and medical advice was to NOT acquire masks for daily wear to prevent spreading. My knowledge from Asian nations encouraging masks wearing to spread the disease was counterfactual to what the government was saying.
The people at Star Slate Codex supposed that this was to limit a run on masks.
Dr. Faucci just last month admits, yeah we lied about it at the beginning to prevent a run on masks.
The conspiracy folks in this case were correct. I am not including myself in the echelons or intelligence the SSC provides, but smart people were able to suss our this was a conspiracy.
Enforcement is the state forcing its will on you eliminating the individual’s ability to evaluate risk. Eric Garner is dead because of government rule flexing you suggest.
The government should buy ads showing the efficacy of face masks and use the ad council to pretty it up.
If you have politically connected individuals flouting the rules, people will salami tactics their way to not wearing the masks.
> Enforcement is the state forcing its will on you eliminating the individual’s ability to evaluate risk.
Except that the primary benefit of masks wrt covid is to significantly reduce the likelihood of the wearer to spread covid (by reducing how much spit escapes ones mouth). So the decision to wear/not wear is not directly about the decider's risk, it's about societal risk.
The last study you quote says "this highlights the importance of safety practices including face masks and ocular contact precautions in preventing the spread of COVID-19 disease.". Another is a meta-study of very few low quality studies. The osha guidelines are essentially just explaining that respirators are important in some settings, which nobody serious doubts. Another just determines that respirators are more effective than cloth masks. Doh.
Just quoting a bunch of half related studies doesn't make a fact.
How is it half related? The first study I cited states:
> There is limited evidence for their effectiveness in preventing influenza virus transmission either when worn by the infected person for source control or when worn by uninfected persons to reduce exposure.
I cited multiple studies. No idea where your "bunch of half related studies" is coming from. Your comment comes off as condescending.
Journal of the American Medical Association has a more recent publication on this question with current results from Covid-19 data as opposed to earlier viruses[0]. Their conclusion is the same as the consensus conclusion here on HN, that masks can play a significant role in preventing the spread of Covid-19.
