Do billionaires work monday to friday like all 9-5s?
  • I think the argument makes more sense when applied to villainize billionaires. Like there’s makes more money and then there’s makes many orders of magnitude more money. You’re much closer to a millionaire than a billionaire.

    Then “anyone with money then me” becomes “anyone with 10,000x more money than me” and you can see where the arguments starts to make sense again. Did this person work 10,000x more than me? Obviously that’s impossible and therefore someone must’ve been exploited.

  • The argument is usually there’s no ethical consumption under capitalism. As in every part of the system is exploitative. The computer he used to program exploited workers and natural resources. The clothing he wore made in sweatshops. All the food made by exploiting animals, etc.

    Therefore those with the most money must’ve cumulatively exploited more than others regardless of how they made the money because the exploitation is unavoidable.

  • Open Source 'Eclipse Theia IDE' Exits Beta to Challenge Visual Studio Code -- Visual Studio Magazine
  • Huh? Every IDE has had this feature for decades. Eclipse, all of JetBrains products, even NetBeans. This is like the most basic feature provided by IDEs.

    Also with the development of first party language servers it’s relatively easy for new IDEs to integrate.

  • [article] Japan is inventing trains
  • Your link doesn’t show Switzerland at the top except their network is completely electric.

    Having been to both countries without a car, Japan is not subpar in terms of local services. They’re very different though because they have such different size and population densities.

  • This prototype turns your car’s windshield into a giant AR display
  • HUDs are something I thought would be gimmicky but it’s actually really useful. Eg. for navigation it can show you where/when your next turn is without having to take your eyes off the road. It works really well in my experience.

  • Why Americans aren’t buying more EVs
  • Feel like this is what Fisker should’ve tried. The Ocean had the right hardware but it seemed like they spent too much effort on their infotainment instead of getting the basics right. Then target the sub-$30k market with a car that drives well with decent range and fewer gimmicks that just works.
