Your argument boils down to: we can’t fix our broken system because our system is broken.

You’re either a right wing troll trying to convince people that nothing can be done, or you’ve internalized the nihilism they try to implant.

“Nothing can be done to solve this, says only nation where this regularly happens”

This is one of many reasons why electing judges is dumb.

Electing judges is dumb as fuck.

I mean, to be fair, electrical engineering is one of the most notoriously difficult to grasp disciplines.

People don’t generally have a great intuitive sense for how pulsed electromagnet waves propagate through 3d space and time.

I’ve used the advanced systems analysis math I learned in university as an actual calculation in my job precisely zero times.

I roughly think about how those models apply to situations and how that will effect the various likely outcomes and behaviours etc on a literal daily basis.

University isnt just about training you to do a job.

If you’re talking about the chicken and egg problem in the abstract, i.e. how do you determine “what caused what” in a system that feeds back into itself… the answer is that in feedback systems, determining blame or ascribing one or the other as the cause is simply meaningless, and you need to examine how the system behaves as a whole, and how the different parts contribute to the output of the system in various configurations.

LA is also just a car culture city. When you’re poor in LA, you drive a shitty car, when you get rich in LA, you drive a fancy car.

When you’re poor in New York, you get driven around by public transit. When you’re rich in New York, you get driven around by a car service.

It’s obviously not so black and white, but the percentage of rich people driving sports cars in LA vs rich people getting driven in luxury cars in NY, is probably similar to the percentage of poor people driving in LA vs poor people taking transit in New York.

Nope. You can literally just send them the exact fields needed for processing a transaction.

The dev of Lemmy is an asshole, full stop. He’s also incredibly pro Russian and pro Chinese, but first and foremost, he’s an intolerable asshole.

You’ll get banned from his Lemmy instance if you dare to suggest that Russia or China issue propaganda.

And he is a large part of the reason why all the “tankie”, i.e. pro-communist Lemmy instances, have cultures of such obnoxious anti-intellectualism.

Their assessment of the charter of rights and freedoms is nonsense.

We have one of the stronger constitutions in the world, one that actually provides positive rights for it’s citizens, not just negative ones

I.e. American rights are all framed as the government not doing something to you, Canadian rights also include ones that force the government to do things for you, like provide health care and clean drinking water. It doesn’t mean the government always does, but our courts are far better at holding our governments to account for functioning the way that normal people expect them to.

The notwithstanding clause is problematic, but it is not the death knell that post is making it out to be.

Microsoft’s been pretty open about using Linux for at least the past decade or so.

They kept building it into Windows which eventually resulted in WSL, largely because they use Linux servers but Windows workstations.

It was about 5 years ago that they publicly released Common Base Linux Mariner (now called Azure Linux).

Like, so much insanely cleaner than your food.

Sewers are the giant pipes with all that air at the top.

Your water pipes are filled almost the entire time, and the trunks are literally constantly flowing. There’s little to no air for anything to grow with, and at the very beginning there’s almost no bacteria since it’s treated water being pumped in. All on top of the that copper is a natural sterilizer.
