I was raised Mormon. Finally left in my 40s.

Py2wasm?

So Al Green got booted from the room. Interesting.

God I hate discord.

Well has anything trump has said sounded well thought out. He’s like the villain from Meet the Robinsons

I always go with experiences over stuff. I want to do something with the people I care about and collect memories instead of things. It gives people the freedom to be as frugal or lavish as they want and I don’t have to store or return anything.

The only surprising thing is that Moscow mitch voted with the democrats.

10 people were killed in an oil well explosion in 1955. A large group of people had gathered to watch the well be torpedoed (early form of fracking). There’s a small plaque at the site now. It’s next to a pretty good brewery. https://wchsutah.org/miscellaneous/escalante-well-explosion.php

Well they don’t believe in human rights either.

People who grew up with abstinence only education writing laws for the next generation.

Kind of… It’s really that weird bridge period between the two generations. 1980 seems to be the sweet spot. The further your birth year is from it, in either direction, the less tech savvy they seem to be.

I think they’re all lying, just to mess with us. Not sure why we’re specifically left out of the joke, but it goes back generations.

Stem cells? Does he know what party he’s hitched his wagon to?

Wow. This is serious.

My kids are in a Chinese dual immersion program. I will never complain about English’s foibles ever again. Holy shit is that a terribly inefficient language. Thousands of years of civilization and they’re still doing pictograms. I can’t even imagine writing a program in Chinese. I’m not sure it would be possible.

There is only 2 basic core values.

The right: some people are better than others, and the betters should rule. They differ on what makes someone “better”, but that’s about it. The left: Everyone is equal, some people need more help than others. They differ on who needs the help.

That’s why I said full time worker. If I work for company A, but 90% of my time is dedicated to company B. My effort primarily benefits company B, therefore my compensation counts to company B. Really causes a problem for companies that employs sweatshops.

I like corporate taxes being tied to the ratio of the highest compensated full time worker and the lowest compensated worker. Note that I specifically said compensation and not wages and full time worker and not employee.

If the highest compensation package is stock options worth 30 million and the lowest compensation is an “independent contractor”, that scrapes by on 30k a year. The ratio is 1000, some standard equation would then define the corporate tax rate. Hopefully a ratio that high would be 100%

A few years ago, my wife and I left the Mormon church. That helped a lot. Along that line coffee makes me happy.

I get the frustration, but I also get where the authorities are coming from. Imagine if precident gets set that a political candidate can be mired down in lawsuits, regardless if they’re plausible or not. Then someone like trump comes along and says cool that worker great against me, I’ll just throw a shit ton of made up lawsuits and cases against all my future opponents.
