Interesting map. Any idea why right is split as

center -> center-right -> right -> far right

and left split as

center -> left -> radical-left -> far-left

Is there a different shape in the parties’ identity and stance or is this due to translation perhaps?

You can have a mesh-like network with auto switching between endpoints on Flint 2 too. I set it up here over the weekend with a clean OpenWRT flash. Even managed to keep IP addresses the same so no worries for any home automation.

It takes some clicks or commands to get there. A wired connection would be nicer but you can use wireless network mode Access Point WDS to create a wireless backhaul too. Fast roaming is supported so I think it behaves similar to mesh.

Multiple VLANs should become a thing for this network in the future.

If these motors are also light, then they could be interesting for motorcycles or other light vehicles. Less losses means less cooling is necessary which may mean no external cooling system has to be fitted lowering complexity and weight.
TL;DR: Chains are better in tough conditions like mud and are easier to repair. Belts are great outside of these conditions.

Yeah, I can hear it that way too. Thanks for sharing your interpretation.

I guess I’m not so triggered because it looks like the movement is towards change from the current system rather than violently overthrowing it. I hear it as “the current capitalism is bad”, somewhere she calls it industrial capitalism. “People can’t afford a house over their heads” sounds to me like a goal to make that happen. Perhaps she has a different view on what afford means than I do because it indeed doesn’t need to mean possess.

In today’s sensationalist tendencies I half expect people to make quite extreme statements to express even the smallest desire for change.

If I looked at the video and interpreted in the most positive way, I did not hear that.

I understood taxation should be distributed differently in her view, the resulting funds should be distributed differently, and that people should be able own a house and have food. She clearly wants shared housing (but that was a side track and it could be fractional ownership I suppose but you could hear a different thing too).

She also seems to hold the opinion that capital is overvalued in the current system and work is undervalued. I guess that’s hard to say, a person without any tools will not be able to build a truck so I reason machines are quite an important part of the mix. But maybe the logical contribution of capital should be disconnected from its societal value. We could tax capital a bit more and work a bit less, for instance.

I’m no professor in economics or anything and she’s only one of them, so perhaps the current situation is perfect, but I do feel wealth distribution is a bit skewed today.

I believe the parent post is nicely sketching out what a “best” move is. I have seen no better approach myself. At the same time I see what you see. The best approach isn’t all that great. If you’re lucky and find the right people it could work. There’s a lot of luck involved there.

That’s why I do think there should be some regulations indicating what is tolerated. It seems to me parent poster may agree (and thus also woth your take).

Since GDPR you can tell the school you don’t want pictures on platforms you disagree with. You may miss out on seeing the photo’s, you might come across as crazy, but you can (and you should). We were given a choice at the cost of extra paperwork and some limitations.

Even without the addiction problem of these platforms we should nurture and find a good society around us. It’s a valid take to try and find likeminded people.

I don’t think that’s the end of it. Given the state we’re in, the network effect, and the fragile ego of developing kids, I suppose we need a stronger push.

AI enforced age verification or logins which allow you to be followed anywhere is not the solution in my current opinion, it’s a different problem. The problems are the addictive and steering nature of the platforms which seems to be hard to describe in a clear way legally.

I wonder how “these platforms” should be defined and what minimum set of limitations would give us and the children the necessary breathing space.

I’ll reply to this random one with that statement. There’s no winning move as a parent.

Problem is being locked out. If your kid is the only one not on social media and all other kids are, your kid will be socially left out.

All kids are on a chat platform you don’t support. What do you? Disallow it and give them a social handicap that might scar them, or allow it and take the risk?

The same goes for allowing images on other platforms. Since GDPR schools seem to care. Yet if it’s a recording that will be put on social media you can explain your 4 year old why they weren’t allowed to participate… It sucks.

I don’t know what the right way forward is. I don’t think this is it. Something is needed though. We should at least signal what we find acceptable as a society. Bog stupid rules which are trivial to circumvent might be good enough, or perhaps some add campaigns like we did with smoking (hehe, if it’s for something we support then adds are good?).

Regardless, the current situation clearly doesn’t work. It would be great if we could find and promote the least invasive solutions.

It’s a general purpose programming language, assuming Common Lisp.

There are many variants though and you’ll find some for very specific situations too. The beauty is that it can easily break out of the comfort zone it was made for, so elisp (from the Emacs editor) allows you to do all sorts of other stuff such as browsing the web or handling your mails.

When you get comfortable with the strange naming, lisps can become a safe and fun place to play. Many variants have all sorts of escape hatches when you’re getting yourself in trouble which makes a bunch of plot-twist requirements changes very feasible to tackle.

Anyhow, we use Common Lisp for some web services which see much reuse across apps.

I’m also very happy with this option. It does have a (brief) learning curve.
