But if the situation was reversed and Trump was the email server bandit this thread would be 50% hate on Trump posts.

Thats just how it is on HN.

Money.

The US, Germany, and Japan are all technology leaders. None of those nations leapfrogged into a developed nation by copying others.

Why is it the wrong thing?

Its a funny reference to bring up California. So many responses to GDPR have been a blanket refusal and cutting EU users off from a nontrivial amount of content on the internet.

As a US citizen, I already know that everything on earth causes cancer to the citizens of CA, but its interesting how many product commercials where you see the products are not available in CA.

Frankley, I think alot of data privacy crusaders are going to be even more surprised by how easy it is for ditigal product offerings to cut out users by geolocation. If CA wants fo go down the road of making websites display notifications about this cancer causing data collection, well, I feel like I could make my living just by selling my digital products in Texas.

At some point the regulation makes the business unprofitable.

That poster literally contradicted himself in two sentences.

You bet there are absolutly people who want protection from this discrimination. Those people want it broken down to the concept of nothing more than 'I was here first, you must offer the job to me or I have cause to sue'.

It is one of the hallmarks of union labor management. It is one reason why private labor has a competitive advantage.

If your negociating with walmart or mcdonalds you have nothing to offer in terms of skill. (for the jobs you are referencing)

Those people who have skills worth money like to negociate.

The great thing about that is everone can better themselves and be worth more.

Except for the last 30 years...

If you dont wont to be in debt, dont take the loan. Saying that you not getting your secondary education paid for by somebody else dooms you to a life of serfdom just sounds like you whining

> I would much rather worry about whether my life truly matters than worry about whether my life will immediately come to an end if I can't kill or grow enough food.

I cant help but think negotiating those situtations is exaclty what the human needs to avoid depression. Maybe you chances of dying young are much higher, like 30% vs 1%. But die young or die old, those humans really lived.

I thought the consensus was that jobs was a jerk, but since he was a brilliant jerk its OK to idolize him.

Thats a technical term for something your political opponents do.

Did that premise matter to you when a majority of californians voted to ban gay marriage? Did you jump up and say 'the system is broken'. I really doubt it.

You think this only effects IT?

You think salary negotiations are somehow immune to those same price pressures when we are dealing with the ppl who mow lawns, pick produce, and clean bathrooms?
