    Good (ish) though, obviously that 1000 isn’t coming linearly, it’s with progressive taxes, so it’s going towards subsidising food for everyone, so the baseline cost is lower.

    Personally I think that only staples (grains, legumes, root vegetables, maybe squash) should be eligible for subsidies, but even then it’s good.

    I work in advertising, I know, it’s just that in the industry it’s pretty well known that Google, Facebook etc. hugely overinflate their numbers as they arbitrarily decide that it definitely did have an effect on you to make their systems look better

    The problem is the ones with all the data have no real use for it.

    Google, Facebook, etc. tell you they have data, sell you the ad, run the ad on their own site, then tell you how well the ad did, but not in absolute terms. All in a black box. They don’t actually have to use their data, as they’re the ones grading their own work, they can just flaunt it to get buyers onboard.


  • One of three:

    • People whose cultures didn’t value them/were disconnected from the original creators eg. Egypt
    • People who ran empires and were just going to destroy them for a new palace or something anyway eg. Ottomans in Greece
    • People who were forced to give them up in the face of a much stronger miltary power eg. a lot of the Chinese & Indian stuff

    I don’t think there’s anything unethical about keeping 1 and 2 as they wouldn’t exist otherwise, but 3 should be returned and replaced with other items from the collection or replicas


  • Anything territorial with a social structure (wolves, horses & boars being great examples of successful domestications, otters and falcons for in-progress domestications and foxes and raccoons good candidates) are prime domestication material as the human can become the social leader and they won’t be as inclined to leave what is their pack’s territory

    That said, it takes thousands of years to fully domesticate something, which is why “semi-domesticated” otters and falcons just sort of help out with hunting without being “friendly” enough to be predictable


  • Frankly you don’t even need to use AM/PM for casual conversation… “I’ll see you at four” almost certainly doesn’t mean 4am unless it’s very clear from contextual information, same for verbally booking appointments

    It’s just things like travel timings etc which are likely going to be written anyway where you actually need that clarification

    Source tarballs are often super sensitive to environment and distro such that you’d need to modify them to work on the specific distro/with the specific dep versions and so at that point, just precompile binaries?

    It’s also much quicker for the end user, nobody wants to wait 5-60 minutes for their package to install unless you’re making modifications to it
