So they didn’t do it. The buffer is just more money in the same bucket they just hope they don’t have to use, but they have direct control over neither. Emergency powers should probably transfer to an impartial body of possible recipient analysts so funds cannot be used as political fodder.

Ah sure, but are they just counting that 45% of stolen goods are food items, or 45% are only stealing food, and if so, how can they know that? What was the percent previously?

Oop I meant they are not you are, but yeah, who knows

I mean they can tell you item counts missing and total value, but how are they counting percentage of patrons? Unless you are extrapolating from catching people and assuming some likelihood of being caught…

Ends up in semantics though… Contested only requires 1, and highly or widely is not defined, and who is a qualifying contributor is not qualified, and who is a qualifying arbiter is not defined.

Depending on how invested he is in the feedback, he may not even realize currently it’s being read outside the context of the wiki editing neutrality issue he was talking about for the article.

I know nothing about his politics, and can only talk about the semantic concepts.

Maybe if we consider accidents. I don’t really understand how they can even measure this in the first place, maybe a poll but that’s very unreliable methodology and sample monitoring would need a crazy large N.

This doesn’t appear normalized to cost increases, which might outpace the rate, which means theft is down. I seriously doubt half of all people are stealing food.

To play devil’s advocate, due to the formulation of his edit suggestion, he may have meant how to depict the claims is being highly contested (on wiki) and should be more neutral and specific as per who is claiming what… And said it badly.

Already explained why… Lots of positions are just nice to have, but are subsidized already, entirely, by other positions that generate all revenue. In many cases you don’t want the business to go away entirely, and in many cases the business wouldn’t even fail, you’d just end up with the optional positions terminated, so those employees make 0/hr instead.

Another poster already contributed a valid solution of UBI.

This is likely a reasonable solution.

This was always the case. Most people couldn’t Google factual info previously either… I’d almost be willing to argue the rate AI is wrong might actually be less than the previous rate of the average person left to “do your own research” …

But it’s also possible AI being fed presupposed answers embedded in the questions combined with prevalence of disinformation farms + no scientific consensus truth authority could lead to an ouroboros effect, greatly amplifying bullshit seekers and magical thinkers over time.

Assuming 25/hr minimum living wage: There are optional positions within businesses that are nice to have, but very simple, but can be opted to be done for any number of hours a day up to full time, and cannot be justified to carry 25/hr… You could have a company offering menial work on razor thin margins, but some people like working there, like scooping ice cream, which could not otherwise exist at 25/hr. There are small businesses that people want to work with that don’t make enough to pay everyone 25/hr (ex. some small gyms). There are cases where low revenue businesses could pay with future equity, but cannot afford 25/hr now. You have to account for these cases in your rules.

Historically they make noise but don’t actually come out to vote though.

People are legit sitting 15+ feet away and thinking a 55 inch TV is good enough… Optimal viewing angles for most reasonably sized rooms require a 100+ inch TV and 4k or better.

You’re wrong, and adults usually enjoy little moments like that from the past. You should fix this

Have you tried to make it right?

I don’t think she has what it takes to come back from where you’ve gone. The next democratic president will have to match or exceed the current regime change policy and be able to ignore laws and norms and gerrymander to get enough power to do anything. Dems have nobody cutthroat enough to do these things.

It was utter shit and deserves more hate than it gets.

Do not have substantial discussions on an app. Move towards a first date immediately and if they don’t respond they weren’t real anyway. There are a few types on these things, bots, ego matches, scared or ego chatters, real daters… Real daters understand a match means a date in the real world and will actively engage in making that happen… Everything else is just noise to throw away.
