Start with an interpreter just running on a website. Low barrier to entry is key at the start

It’s small steps, not medium steps dammit!

The social contract of tolerance

Immigration helps with healthcare though. We get working, tax paying adults, and skip the expensive child phase.

Messing with immigration numbers would throw off other systems too. Makes way more sense to just directly fix the problem of not enough housing. It’s not like cutting immigration would do anything to reverse the problem anyway. Housing looks like it’s just an excuse to blame immigrants, because somehow the solution always seems to be blaming immigrants.

I though pharmacare was one of those things that paid for itself with the single point of negotiation and reduced need for emergency care? I don’t really remember the numbers…

Simple fact of the matter is that that sounds really inconvenient, and needs justifying. If there are readily available biodegradable options right there, why on earth wouldn’t you use them?

It’s whoever the right wing chooses as the next target, right?

Only way out for me I see in the long term is to live with like tons of roommates and practice my ultra-dense room arrangement skills.

I think the core problem is that any move the government makes to reduce housing costs will piss off everyone whose primary investment is their house.

Correct solution if not for that would be for government to directly build a fuckton of housing.

Incorrect solution would be to reduce immigration. Immigration is good for other reasons. Cutting it off would weaken the country.

I want to know more

I like the sound of that. Pharmacare seems like an obviously good policy.

Are there any decent arguments against it?

Legit quite nice. Think I’m missing a joke.

They are pretty convenient though. Are there any sustainable alternatives?

Like with straws, I know for fact that there are non-paper biodegradable ones.

Also, with discovery of plastic-eating bacteria, how is the definition of biodegradable shifting?

Edit: Obligatory mention of industry regulations being more effective in helping the environment

This has none of he jank that ai generated images usually have. That is significant.

nushell is taking the same route I think

Same one as before I think.

Damn, I wish rust had that

Ah yes, but have you considered the gargantuan confirmation bias of anyone willing to map debunked wolf social dynamics onto humans?

Honestly, that feels like giving them too much credit. Chimps are fucking terrifying. The more I learn about them, the more I wonder “jesus fucking christ, how badass/insane was Jane Goodall?!”. Those things are the closest things to real demons I’ve ever heard about.

Edit: well, aside from particularly unhinged humans

Chimpanzees do, though (source). and they’re closer to humans than wolves.

The whole alpha wolf thing kind of sounds like projection.

I think you’re being downvoted for this because, even if it’s a good point in isolation, it’s in the direction of “trans person bad”, and thus indistinguishable from a transphobe adopting the point without believing it. You gotta include a few instances of “_____ did it really well. We need more like that.” to balance it out.
