  6.  @pokey013  Yeah, its not that I hate him personally or what he's done or that I'm jealous that he is way superior to me in a specific field (or perhaps in other computing fields which he might be, but I don't know cause I've not seen much of his work outside the one he claims expertise in) he's definitely very knowledgeable on, (I don't exactly care to be experienced in kernel development and I recognize its importance even when it doesn't much interest me) nor that I think he's done nothing of note, its that he acted and referred to himself as an expert in a field, which is fair because he has a lot of knowledge and experience on it, in a fairly arrogant manner as though he's some prolific member of the community. (which I get as a Linux nut myself, but even so there is a modesty you should have for that) And that's not to say he wasn't at some point (though he is definitely not one involved in devising say the Unix model of software, which is one of the most important things Unix gave the world) but he hasn't been for a long time. This is what kinda pisses me off about him, the arrogance of expertise. And thing is I can sweep that under the rug under conventional circumstance, but his knowledge and experience is completely irrelevant to the case and he doesn't know anything about statistical analysis most especially. I wouldn't really say anything about him, most especially not disparage his accomplishments (which I don't doubt are many legitimate ones) if he didn't make claims he couldn't possibly make in regards to a field he seems to know nothing about. (and I mean accomplishment in the past 3 decades, not the ones going back to say Unix, AIX, and Solaris)

  9. Keep in mind, public trade is hyper-regulated regulated by the government and ESG is owned and operated by economic NGOs with WEF and US subsidiary backing, Bungie made every Halo up to Halo Reach with passion and drive, Nintendo and many Japanese and Korea companies do not have this problem and are none of them are publicly traded in the US (most studios in Japan and Korea aren't publicly traded at all) and do not fall under US public trade regulations nor are even eligible for ESG even if they did follow through. And keep in mind, when Japanese businessmen noticeably fail a business, they don't go into government, NGOs, the WEF, or often even another big name business, they are shamed out of the industry almost entirely, so if they fail they are punished for it. Japan and Korea (ignoring half of Sony as they are publicly traded in the US) don't make good products off the backs of being better people, their incentives inherently align with the consumer base so egregious investments are discouraged else they will not only lose money but their job that makes them that money. This is not a capitalism problem remotely, like aside from historically good and bad games always existing then and now, the Far East does not suffer at all from the Western gamedev problem despite being just as if not more capitalist, notice in fact how much regulation and government intervention public trade (specifically American public trade) has and how the companies that have since started to succeed the most and are the most consumer considerate have absolutely no public trade fueling them, a lot of the issue is not just a government issue but it is a massive part, look at manga/manhwa and anime, or even the new indie comic scene, compare it to the comic and media scene in propagated exclusively in Hollywood? The only somewhat big name alternative of late has been the Daily Wire, which in the least you can say has put out a lot better stuff regardless of whether you agree with them or not. All the big name companies in Hollywood are publicly traded in the US from Disney to Universal to Warner Brothers, that's not a capitalism problem, in fact if anything I'd argue its an anti-capitalism problem driven by incentives that require satisfying the board over the customer which only happens specifically because the business is required by law to do so else the government will come after them, even if stockholders got mad nothing happens unless those with all the money were to sue over fiduciary responsibility. You can even see this with Disney right now, did you not see the latest shareholder meeting from Disney? It was literally nothing but politics, people asking when they'll get out of it and complaining about taking positions in politics they shouldn't, or say not paying for de-transition surgery when one regrets it despite paying for transition surgery, and then Bob Iger just accused everyone are not knowing what "Woke" even is, that it doesn't exist, and that Disney is not woke. This all costed him massive in stock, but who is gonna sue over fiduciary responsibility? The board voted him for another year with 94% approval despite shareholder disapproval. I say it should be fairly obvious the problem is especially evident that its American intervention and regulation that most caused this issue and public trade is the biggest problem of it.

  19.  @iezdubz  Well the argument that there's a middle man that takes money and thus jacks prices is a Marxist argument, not a free market argument, (in fact it spits in the face of the American Founders who agreed with John Locke, which requires a rejection of free market opposition) its anti-market and demonstrates that he doesn't understand anything about basic economics. First off insurance companies aren't allowed to compete, foremost they sparsely are allowed to compete across state lines (only under permission of the state) but also because the Federal government regulates and controls the very existent capability for an insurance company to exist, they can decide on a whim to reject the development of a new insurance company, which drives down competition and supply, which both drive up prices thanks to the basics of supply and demand. The monopolies exist off the back of the government restricting and regulating the companies, and the more regulations you put, the more red tape you introduce, which drives up the price of developing a company thus raising the barrier to more competition, as red tape costs a lot more money (bureaucratically and legally) to get around. Now this aside the New Deal also outright banned mutual aid organizations, especially at the community, neighborhood, and regional level, as well as between friends and family. It used to be that mutual aids would help each other voluntarily, you pay in to a community thing with no real middle man and it was the mutual aid members that decided your coverage, some mutual aids, like fraternity societies, would also require you to assist them in certain task, volunteering, or fundraising in order to keep coverage. And everyone voluntarily joined these, it was especially common among churches. Insurance should be allowed to freely compete under free association, which is implicit in the 1st Amendment, but because people are simpletons they reject the basic responsibilities of free association while wanting all the privileges. Free association means the government is not involved in the deals you decide to make, and when you do charity and community becomes the biggest factor. A moral society relies on charity, an immoral society relies on legal oversight.
