I think super-apps are the way to go, only way to prevent one company from monopolizing click-stream data for advertising.

some apps already do this and their users don’t suffer from the same issue (granted, they have different issues)

fr fr no cap 🧢

I see this online, how true is it though? like do I need a bag of sugar or just a few sprinkles.

It’s unfortunate that the solution is as simple as it is and it’s not being implemented.

Yeah I guess if I could add free time and money and make it so everyone is happy I would add it.

I guess, so the law at present seems mostly made up. Like, it can’t deal with glaring issues without a precedent and what amounts to a long-winded ritual before significant issues are considered.

I guess I don’t see why a corp can’t be accountable like how some people who commit petty crimes are ‘held accountable’ (i.e. shot, killed, worked in labour camps).

i think one small addition

1. decrease influence of bribing lobbying

there was an indication 45 would be bad, during his presidency he did a bunch unexpectedly, that means my poor imagination has no clue how awful some of the stuff he implements will be

i’m trying to go to my desk to get started, it’s just, there’s all these unfinished and poor abandoned projects scattered everywhere…

i’ll keep trying though!

yeah this was my kinda sense, why do fans tell me it’s simple? i like brandon sandersons system, doubly so because he has like different implementations of the same magic system in different series in the same universe (‘cosmere’)

huh, thanks for sharing! i learned something!

i think demon every time i read demonym and i’ll never not see it

yeah, that’s true, i guess what makes it a bit off is i’m accustomed to hearing awful things about the US.

yeah fair point, do you think it would make sense to say that some have knowledge of it besides academics & people in think tanks? like politicians i guess

Hm, I think the kinds or categories of differences might be significant. Enough for legislators and policy makers, and I think enough for residents of different countries to get some perspective. If there’s no context or the context is not well understood, how would one know if things can get better or worse in a meaningful way?

Ah ty, I’m learning spanish, is it supposed to be like the word “estadonidense”? i’m learning spanish from south america if that means anything in like word usage

That’s fair. Don’t you think the main point still stands? The US is abysmal for healthcare and is comparable to a much poorer nation which it embargoes?

Hey what is EEUU? I’m getting blanks on my search.

EDIT: It means amerika

You might find Negative Income Tax proposed by Milton Friedman interesting, he certainly was no collectivist.

Hey, are you also referring to Negative Income Tax by Friedman?

Yo, thanks so much for the resources! I found what looks to be the relevant group for calendar extensions, one of the most recent proposals/things is representing contact data with JSON.

This is definitely something I’ll be looking into and hopefully contributing to one day!!

EDIT: whoops, here’s a relevant link
