Environmentalism is not the same thing as climate change.

This is true, but

Fires caused by heat and methane gas sporadically break out and some deep beneath the pile can smolder for weeks or months. Bhalswa and Ghazipur landfills contribute to the country's total output of methane gas.

Methane is the second most abundant greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide, but a more potent contributor to the climate crisis because it traps more heat.

(and needless to say much of that trash is plastic, which releases massive amounts of air pollution during its manufacture.)

Whetstone - a Calm OS by TheRealPanzer in technology

Checking the time on a smartphone is another one of those actions that puts a smartphone in your hand. To untrain this impulse, Whetstone will never give you the time of day.

Arguably trading apps for physical wristwatches and alarm clocks is a prime example of The Unix Philosophy.

Twenty-six years ago, two technologists envisioned a different kind of future: one where humans and quiet, unobtrusive computers comfortably co-existed.

In their prophetic 1996 essay The Coming Age of Calm Technology, Marc Weiser and John Seely Brown spoke of a time when tiny, Internet-enabled computers would be embedded in everything from clocks, to toys, to microwave ovens. When such a time came, they advised, the design patterns of the Mainframe and Personal Computing eras would no longer serve us; instead, Ubiquitous Computing would require us to "radically rethink the goals, context, and technology of the computer and all the other technology crowding into our lives."

This is huge, a total paradigm shift, really forcing me to rethink what a phone is and could be. Thanks, OP.

Do you getting a college education is a good thing? by 8thmonitor in whatever

[–]Countach_3D 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

The correct answer should of course be the knowledge

I don't know that there's a "correct" answer but I would say that if too many people opt for the degree it's time to reexamine what we want incentivized in our educational system.

If your kids go to study liberal arts and are happy acquiring debt so they can flip burgers, so be it.

While this stereotype is rooted in reality, and there are plenty of very educated people making essentially fast food wages, statistically university graduates still make more money than their secondary school-educated counterparts. It is important to remember that this is precisely why many people attend university.

Otherwise they do it to get a fulfilling career by studying something useful, in which case typically the bit of paper at the end is what they need.

But "useful" is hard to gauge and can change a lot in 4 years. (I would argue that pharmacists are useful but the influx of trained pharmacists caused their wages to stagnate. Again, if "useful" were the sole criterion bedpan attendants would be making more than social media VPs.)

Even someone with a degree in Angolan literature or ethnomusicology is more appealing to most employers than a similar candidate with none, and I know of few people with useful degrees who actually end up in a career closely related to their area of study 10+ years after graduation.

Otherwise everyone could get jobs by just reading a book on the subject.

The textbook is meant to be a supplement for teaching, not a replacement for it. Gaps in the autodidact's knowledge are often apparent to everyone else; the role of a professor cannot be replicated by watching YouTube videos.

Caitlin Johnstone makes as much sense as tits on a turtle.

Perhaps you simply ought work on your reading comprehension.

While it may be a hyperbolic to refer to an entire 150-year-old publication that has published Mark Twain, Martin Luther King, Wm. F. Buckley, and David Foster Wallace as "a shitty propaganda rag," I think the central premises hold up:

that Applebaum's piece is incredibly dangerous and irresponsible, and that fears of popular speech are rooted in elitism.

It may be somewhat tenuous to link the two and assign such a position to The Atlantic's editorial board as a whole but as usual Ms. Johnstone + Mr. Foley's analyses provide insight into consensus manufacture in the West.

Even then, the discourse surrounding "gay white men" is pretty toxic.

(not entirely undeservedly, in my opinion, I should add. But just like the also-deserved criticism of professional white feminists, it ends up getting hijacked by this weird determinism and demands for self-flagellation from the worst non-white Cluster-B narcissists.)

And you are correct that we can't all be plumbers and carpenters, but there is nothing inherent to those positions that makes them capable of supporting a family (and they would be just as subject to falling wages if suddenly a flood of new plumbers were trained.)

Thinking of construction or manufacturing as "well-paying jobs" is a category error. Those jobs pay (paid) well because over the course of half a century workers collectively insisted on better compensation (i.e. a larger share of the profits they generate). When the economy shifted and fewer of those jobs were necessary, the jobs that replaced them hadn't undergone the same decades-long process of securing dignified working conditions.

If by "the disastrous effects of globalism" you mean free trade it's pretty difficult to predict which industries will be resistant to the shifting sands of hypercapitalism. Pretty much any knowledge work can be done by AI, or at least by any English speaker in a poor country with an Internet connexion, but the stuff that's "nailed down" (plumbers, manicurists, mechanics) can be undercut by movement of labour from poorer countries too.

The most in-demand position and one of the hardest to automate is medical caregivers but, again, since the workers aren't organized wages remain low.

The traditional question is:

If you had to pick between the degree, or the knowledge you gained while earning it, which would you choose?

I suspect for most grads nowadays, it's the degree.

But if you want a pay bump go to a vocational school, not university.

A true well-rounded liberal arts education makes you a fuller person, a better citizen, Socrates' examined life and all that. I'm aware that degree inflation has made a university education a prerequisite for many white-collar jobs, but the skills learned are tangential at best to most office work and in an ideal world university would be available to all who are willing and able to broaden their perspective on the world, without forcing others who feel like they need to be there just to earn a dignified living.

Did you know there were so many native german speakers in America at one point that a vote had to be held to see what would be the national language and English only just won. You could be speaking / writing German right now if the vote had of gone the other way.

As a language lover I must debunk this urban myth. The vote was only about federal funding for official translations of government documents, the same way many jurisdictions have Spanish versions of informational pamphlets and voting ballots today.

That said, up until the First World War a large number of proud Americans went to school in German, did their shopping in German, raised their children in German, and there was a thriving German-language press. (The publisher of the first German newspaper in the New World? A certain "B. Francklin" [sic].) The most American author ever, Mark Twain, was proud of his second language and wrote a few short stories and speeches in it.

What the U.S. did to German, and ethnic Germans - its own citizens - during the virulent xenophobia of the World Wars, effectively wiping out a language in a generation, is a tragedy, one today unknown by most Americans, of German descent and not.
