But all of those other headlines are wrong and misleading as well, in their own way.
The "court"(s) cannot "block" Trump from doing anything. They don't control the military. All they can do is "say" something about the "legality" of the actions of the commander in chief of the military. The first two headlines that (according to the link) "beg to mislead" are closer to accuracy on this dimension -- the courts said something.
True! There might be other solutions, like having management treat people as they themselves would want to be treated. That kind of thing just sounds fairly unrealistic.
I hope courts worldwide continue to punish Amazon for these kinds of things. They need to change the calculus — to ensure that the total operational cost of hiring people to do these terrible jobs is much higher than using robots.
Purpose is a really helpful way of organizing thought about the world.
But “purposeful” does not mean “having to do with the concept of purpose”, so “teleological” ends up being a pretty useful word. Despite the smell of old books it carries.
This has been available for a while but it's great to see some acknowledgement especially since the most recent data set was stuck in 2019 for a while.
I see the number of children a couple has as a vote on how many people should exist on earth. If you have 0 or 1 child as a couple, you are voting that there should be fewer people. If you have 2 children, you're voting that there should be about the same number of people. If you have more than 2 children as a couple, you're voting that there should be more people on earth.
With that context, I can clearly see why nobody in a city would want to have more than 2 children.
I liked "The Friendly Orange Glow: The Untold Story of the PLATO System and the Dawn of Cyberculture" which sounds related... I hadn't heard about PLATO before, and the book was strongly redolent of "online culture".
One value of an unordered unannotated book list is in reinforcing books you've already read, and providing a little extra push towards the action potential on the ones you haven't.
