An API is like a list of names and addresses. You still have to do all the heavy lifting to make use of that info, but its very very important info that needs to be free and open for software interoperability. This is like if Oracle said you needed to pay licensing for their bespoke yellowbook for the Oracle town, its not an insane proposition legally, just a very dumb one as far as cooperate responsibility. I'm glad the supreme court told them that they can't try to squeeze profit out of it.

PookBear posted:Please stop being a dumbass and repeating this. If the global economy collapses like it did during the great depression and it falls in half, then someone worth 40 billion is now worth 20 billion. money is meaningless, 20 billion worth of wealth in a collapsed economy will buy you more than 40 billion today 20 billion of cash will buy you dirt because its worthless.

AreWeDrunkYet posted:External shocks can upend wealth distribution. From what I recall from Capital in the 21st Century, the world wars were the most redistributive events in western Europe over the last few hundred years. When there are actual existential threats to society, preserving capital structures suddenly falls down the priority list. For a few decades after the second world war, the UK and France were arguably socialist countries (based on public ownership of capital) and saw broad increases in standards of living as a result. But despite that the general trend over the last few decades is towards privatization and a wider wealth disparity again. wars are fought to uphold capital structures, its why capital has all the war infrastructure and keeps it primed

PookBear posted:we went through four years of trump and decrying the constant cronyism and self dealing but now bribes are OK I was pretty sure you've traveled around the world a bit. Its a minor problem in the US and its a way of life everywhere else. What are we going to do to fix bribery in Egypt? Bomb them? poo poo like domestic cash bribes on housing offers are unacceptable and someone needs to 'bribe' those real-estate people with a baseball bat.

The first step in getting rid of domestic bribes is abolishing the police. I consider this an absolute win.

If you for example make it so that speeding was punishable by a week in the local jail that would still have racial and class biased fiscal consequences, as a wealthy individual not being able to work for a week is no where near the crippling act it could be for someone at the poverty line. Equitable punishment is very hard to codify.

Also the police do nothing to stop traffic crime anyway. They don't keep the highways from being Fast and Furious sequals any more than the NYPD keep NYC from being some escape from new york thunderdome. The police don't stop crime.

ASAPI posted:Yeah, that's what I'm having a hard time with. We can't throw everyone in jail for a night if they speed, we would need more jails (which defeats the purpose). Money is a dumb answer, the wealthy don't care. We want some of these laws to continue, I totally want the cops watching out for kids walking home from school, but I also don't care about the guy doing 5-10 over on the interstate. The way to fix motor vehicle violations is to repeal the laws for most of them, as they are useless and only selectively enforced against minorities at the whim of the patrol officer. Also investing in mass transit so there are less cars on the road means less speeding and less automotive accidents.

Do you or anyone you know deliberately drive the speed limit? Everywhere across the US i've ever driven the cars drive at the speed of traffic. That's constrained by a few things 1) Most peoples cars get a little squirrely above 90mph to the point where its uncomfortable to drive that fast continuously 2) Above 75 fuel economy starts to tank as air resistance and rolling resistance rack up 3) People don't want to hit each other and naturally slow down in denser traffic 4) The modern wide grid abominations through suburbia (thanks pheonix!) are the main culprit of people doing 90 next to children playing, which again nobody respects the speed limit on. Hence why despite postings of 65mph or whatever most people are doing 75-80 on your average day, even if the road is empty. Everybody is taught to respect the signage but nobody actually does.

This is so ripe for malicious compliance until it finally hits the courts and get struck. Take a gross system and rub republicans face in it until the bullying finally gets through to them.

Well it sounds like they have to pay a doctor to verify you, which is still gross as gently caress. Does sound like its written to legally also apply to men's teams which means you can bludgeon it to enrage everyone's parents and get it repealed. The point of malicious compliance is to break the system and force them to give up on the whole process. Hopefully the courts just work faster. Or Florida sinks into the sea and takes its whole state government with it.

The food price index is at 125%, which I think is like the highest since 1974 or something? Also lumber price is going to the moon as fast as bitcoin. The ups and down since the 1970's look like noise compared to current cost. e;
