Yeah, apparently they are really difficult to open. That’s why I’ve been considering a 5th gen instead.

I have the 6th and 7th gen nanos. Lately, I’ve been really tempted to get a 5th gen classic. The larger storage, modding, and rockbox would be really cool.

Productivity has increased by orders of magnitude in the past 100 years

wtf are you talking about

Roughly a 2x productivity boost will counteract a ~ 50% reproduction rate, simple economics. We just choose not to even try to have a system that would allow that

Here’s an idea: don’t make your economic system rely on the fact that every single person reproduces

Is there a more reliable source than “HR News” ?

Yeah no. It is quite bad in many places all over the world. BUT. Big cities in Sweden are especially bad. By law you gotta queue to get a long term lease, and this queue can be 10+ years in Stockholm.

And yeah funnily enough, this is due to their rent control system. Maybe it could be implemented better, but their current system leads to terrible outcomes.

The Swedish rental market is abysmal

An LSAG signature proves that the signature came from one of the announced public keys, but it is impossible to know which.

I mean I just took the users word for summarizing the thing accurately, but doesn’t seem too complicated to me https://crypto.stackexchange.com/a/112036

Either way, it’s not about this specific idea. It’s just that you need some technical way to combat bots, be it cryptography, web of trust, subjective moderation etc. If it’s open source, there will not be enough volunteers to do moderation

This kinda app would need at least an attempt at a technical solution to the bot problem. An open source app can’t just pay people to kick bots out. And even the paid apps that can are drowning in bots.

Something cryptographic maybe. Tor is kinda magical, makes anonymity possible while the each machine knows who they are talking to. Maybe something where you can show that you are “a verified user” without showing exactly which one.

I don’t think that many people are buying shit quality products second hand

Well-functioning second hand markets encourage buying quality products new, cause they have resell value. If the quality is truly shit, nobody would be paying money for it, especially second hand.

A few thoughts:

• Depends how much money you are spending to buy those clothes. If it’s almost the same as the price as new, it makes it easier for the people who buy the clothes new to keep buying more and more stuff.
• If you aren’t spending a lot of money, this is like the opposite of fast fashion. You are making the life cycle of those clothes longer by buying them.

PS. I don’t think we should individualize things like this. A significant chunk of the clothes we buy – and other things as well – are made under miserable conditions and/or by children, and it’s very difficult to avoid all of that. It’s a systemic issue that needs to be solved on a systemic level.

Yes, for example hypothyroidism

They might be increasing in weight due to absorbing more water into their body

I have a few (internal) web pages like that at work, they do the job but yes they are ugly

Have you ever seen HTML without CSS? It’s ugly as hell
