well, you clearly have not enough knowledge on how the press and the politicians' vote works. Hint: both depend on money, so who has the money has them both.

Well, you have to kill me to notice my liver, and still it's not a parasite.

wow, many times downvoted for redirecting people to an up to date situation so they can chose the plan best suited for they convenience. Gosh, HN is getting brutal. Btw, very nice job to the guys at CoCalc in general, as a collaboration tool, and specially at courses based on Jupyter Notebooks. EDIT: and now some guys going through my old posts in different threads giving me negative votes. Really?Wow.Just wow.

You are waaaay outdated. "SageMathCloud is Now CoCalc" since May 2017. Go google it. And it's not free _at all_, except for very basic stuff. Your pricing depends on what you need, from hundreds to thousands of dollars. Not a criticism, only a heads up for the guys reading the comments.

It's amazing how US-UK centered this is. Talking about fingerprints history and not even mentioning the first time it was developed and used in criminal forensics? They talk about novels talking about using it, but the actual first case in which was used to solve a crime was in the 1890s, and the whole technique was invented on site and developed there, in Argentina [1]. But, hey, not english speakers, so probably only barbarians who know nothing about technology.

You really, really have your data wrong. Obviously you have a cliché-type idea of what Mexico it's.

My grandpa military badge.
It reminds me who I am, where we were and at what length we went for the sake of our honour and our people.
I am part of a Nation, I am part of that history. And that badge represents, physically, the proud I have of being who I am. And it's a permanent call to what I have to be and how I should behave.

Nice article, but misinformed. " It’s purely the a century old norm for running factories most efficiently.", based on the Ford adopt of the norm in 1914. That is borderline ridiculous: what they id was go from 9 hours to 8 but with DOUBLING the wages. What do you think was the reason for the improvement in productivity?
In the USA, in Illinois you have a law for 8 hours (with loopholes) at 1867! Chicago saw that year a whole week of workers strike trying to get that. In the next 20 years, lots of cities and professions got the 8 hours. And in 1886, see what happened in May Day and in the following Haymarket Riot.
The real reason for the 8 hours is the anarchist push for a more human treatment of workers'life. Those working class anarchist masses in Europe went to North and South America in numbers, and started there a very strong push for workers organizations, shaping some countries cultural shape up to this day. THAT is the real push for the 8 hours, those are the real reasons, in a history that most of the world knows but in the USA is still neglected and hidden. So, seen an article about the genius of Ford for the 8 hours in 1914 is sad. What he did was doubling the wages, and got an improvement in productivity. The 8 hours has a rich, hard fought and tragic history that is more than 50 years older, and which was usually drowned in blood by those same industrial tycoons.
