You can only be overexploited if you are underdevelopped and vice versa.


It’s important which word you choose, since both words bring with them its own implied solution to the problem. If we call it “underdeveloped”, the implied solution is to foster development. If, on the other hand, we call it “overexploited”, well…


Then the only solution is for larger more powerful countries to voluntarily give up their way of life. In which case those countries will be in a tough spot for a very long time.


I would disagree because in my opinion it seems that there are some parts of the western developed world where levels of exploitation are increasing.


Also worked at Okta. Can confirm, pay is surprisingly shit.


Are the figures on Levels accurate? https://www.levels.fyi/company/Okta/salaries/Software-Engine...

Seems fairly par for the course?


Don't know about the comp levels but the title / experience / pay seems totally whacky - a staff-level engineer with a total of 5-7 years of experience? IME this role is for very experienced ICs who don't move into management but are still key leaders.

Has title inflation followed the general trends of post-secondary grade inflation?


Tyler, anyone who understands economics would know that in a true economy, you would not even have had to work at all to resolve the issue. The infinite and unfortunate truth, is that such a low amount of people actually understand anything about economics. They idiomatically and unquestionably believe that economics are to be conflated with politcs. Which is the root of the primary issue. A primary issue out of which a cyclic abundance of subsequent issues abound and are used in an ever revolving manner so as to keep what is known as the Establishment machine turning. However i have made peace in that i have recently accepted the vastly regrettable fact that the weakness and propensity for humanity as one to disillusion and misunderstand not just the most basic externalities but even those internalities surrounding our species will simply never expire.


If you think any social program should be subsidized, then you simply dont understand economics, youre just being fooled by politics. A politcal system that may have played to your advantage, but also disenfranchised a much greater number of people. Theres no point giving you an economics course here, But yes, in brief, the truth is everyone could afford healthcare, and true healthcare, not sub par programs, if we had a real economy. One that is not political in nature. I also come from an extremely impoverished background, and am too now doing well for myself. I work in a field that has shown me that we are literally being scammed from right under us. However know that i fully understand your incentive and i know it is a good one, you wish to give everyone equal opportunity, so i am not at all questioning youe motive as i know its genuine and well hearted, but also try to understand that you are unfortunately living in complete ignorance.


Good thing you're not a ceo.


Nah this guy is right.

Tesla has that product reality distortion field much like Apple has. Would've made a great purchase.


A truly stunning font.


The answer is simple: Theyre weirdly shaped because transportation systems are not privatised. This forces businesses to accomodate to older routes and geographical layouts, making cities not only weirdly shaped but also monotonous in progress and boring.


Did you read the article? In fact it claims that part of the reason for the lack of good public transport in the US is due to the extreme fragmentation present in some counties. Cooperation between neighboring cities is lacking, making planning and securing sensible infrastructure projects a much harder task compared to a ‘monolithic’ city.


What youre saying has nothing to do with my comment.


Its not a companies fault. Its governement.


No it’s the companies fault. Export restrictions can’t be applied indiscriminately. Laws are open to interpretation and they have interpreted this law in letter not in spirit.


Its not too good to be true. These are simply the effects of true non crony capitalism at work. Decentralisation of everything is forcing the crony status quo capitalistic system to change, thus pushing the boundaries of progress further than before. This is simply the beginning.


Until Robinhood exhausts its runway, is acquired by a traditional finance firm, or is run out of business by FINRA complaints because they kill options trading for hours at a time for their users during market hours [1].

Best was when they exercised out of the money expiring options. I wonder how much they lost on that.


Youtube is not even close to being a netflix competitor.
