Just say what you mean.
Democrats are the party of the wealthy now, btw.

LOL! I bet that was an American insisting cows have testicles! Maybe the Agriculture secretary?

If they identify as a COW they can still have testicles ;-)

I you drink enough that the PFAS in the beer is a concern to you, that means you drink so much you don't care about your health since you drink so much beer in the 1st place, which is not good for your health! That is really the point of what I was saying.

Nobody cares about old history where people can only drink sewage; also, bottled water is way cheaper if you are too poor to have safe drinking water you shouldn't be buying beer.

Not that people are rational. I knew an addict who didn't drink beer because "that stuff will fuck you up" while he ended up in jail while high on some mix of illegal drugs driving recklessly under the influence in a drawn out police chase. no kidding! drunk driving is bad, he'd never do that.

The guy almost never tells the truth. This is just to sound good. He streamlined H1B last time but couldn't / didn't change the cap on workers. It became easier while he sounded like he was against it last time. He can't legally set this fee but the law doesn't matter anymore. This will have EXEMPTIONS for his "friends" besides it sounding like it is still a bargain that won't really deter large companies. They may even write it off on their taxes! Except big loopholes and exceptions for the "right" people.

Computer Science is a flawed degree but you are way off! It was a math degree initially and it was theory bound. It became corrupted into software engineering. It sounds better so the name sticks but it is more of a software engineering degree today. It really should be a math degree that has nothing from industry in it. Let them research new algorithms and have very few job prospects. If you want software engineers, then make a proper engineering degree! Stop this widespread false advertising!

Even so, industry will bitch because businesses don't do job training anymore and externalize all responsibility they can. You can't learn all the specialization out there in the industry and the things you do are possibly moved to "legacy" by graduation. Software Engineering needs to cover the common themes and theory not a specific framework. The industry needs a professional union... laying people off rather than training them or allowing self-training is a shitty thing to do. No worker should be loyal to a business that is just going to fuck them 1st chance the new CIO or CEO gets.

I've seen deported students. didn't finish their degree. I've seen self deportation too.

Why you would stay in the USA as soon as you had a chance to leave..after the degree? You are not treated well and somebody you upset can accuse you of anything and you are deported. But we'll fix that as our already declining education system gets further harmed by Trump over the next 3+ years. It is already so poor that many students don't see hardly any difference between online learning and in person learning.

There is a real, for-true Lord Sugar in England. He's got the Donald Trump role in their version of The Apprentice.

Like china. It's illegally being attempted in the USA now in some places; big tech places... subtle and getting more clear with time. It's begun the push but will things be so corrupt that we backslide into it? Losing the weekends that took so much fighting to get a century ago?

We're already backsliding a century back in other ways.

Max Headroom, anyone? It was illegal to turn off the ads.

I'm just waiting for the Blipverts.

Yeah, I think we hit ultimate Poe's Law there.

My fridge just makes a noise when the door is left open. It's kind of annoying when I'm putting a lot of stuff in.

This is different. It's not financial like Munich was. This is digital sovereignty. You can't buy your way into that.

The Left assumes the Right is just the same sort of Cult of Personality that they themselves are, just on the other side.*

*(Sadly, as an old school conservative, I'm actually just as or more troubled by the what-we-formerly-called-neoCons and activist Republicans who DO act just like Dems just marching behind a different flag, cf the FCC/Kimmel thing I think is a conservative own-goal because it is asinine the US gov't is 'weighing in' on the content of some mid-talent late night show with like 120k viewers. Likewise most of Trump's bombast just gets in the way of what he's trying to do.)

They don't realize the Left and the Right FUNDAMENTALLY see the relationship to power differently, in a different framework, and with an entirely different context.

I know the global climate change strawman is pretty much everywhere. I've been fighting you morons on this for 30 years since IPCC 2. That's back when they left their sources online - eg tree ring data - so I could gophur it, throw the raw data into excel and see there was NO SUCH TREND as discussed.

"Climate is changing" well yes it's always changed
"but now it's warming" yes we're coming out of an interglacial, duh?
"no, HUMANS are causing this" they really aren't; the climb of temperature is basically identical in scope, slope, and timing to the previous 30x-40x spikes we've seen in paleoclimate reconstructions every 120k-ish years for around the last 4 million years. Temp spikes, then settles back to a rough norm.
"(increasingly shrill) THIS TIME IT'S PEOPLE you fascist!" well, now you have to explain a) how you can discern this is different from one of those, b) where the previous usual expected spike went, and c) how the earth's climate systems that responded to the previous repeat events won't do exactly the same thing.
"grr but 97% of climate scientists agree!" that's been debunked so many times I'm not bothering to do it again. How curious that people who make their living and gov't grants from declaring the sky is falling, insist that indeed, the sky is falling.
"fuck you nazi" yeah, right back at you.

The funny thing is I *absolutely* agree that human activity is very likely increasing the warming to some degree, or if not that, it's probable that a longer steady warming over centuries was suppressed by heavy particulate load from the industrial revolution; our SUCCESS at (and economic changes) clearing/reducing particulates has resulted in the system 'rebounding' likely appearing to be sudden warming.
I also agree it's stupid to shit where you eat, and we absolutely need to work on stronger efforts to clean water, clean air, and a cleaner environment wherever possible.

I just think that this whole discussion is a bullshit trend that the ecomarxists and left have barnacled onto and my failing to genuflect to their Catastrophist Creed and Holy CO2 Ghost marks me as an apostate. (shrug) I don't give a shit.

Is that ELI5 for you? I don't expect to change your mind but occasionally I like to lay it out there on the ridiculously small chance someone other than you reads it.

You dumb fuck already complained that "I was only talking about a study of northern cities" so it's a little hard to claim that you don't know precisely what data I was referring to.

Although I will agree you're pretty convincing at playing stupid.
