That's how it works in other countries. Unions are per industry, not per business, because per business is... weird and not really helpful.
The union negotiates salary ranges for the entire industry, so it doesn't matter if one company is being difficult, their organisation (the one that organises the employers of that industry) have agreed to the ranges on their behalf.
If you need to go on strike, the union members employed at other businesses can help cover wages. Your union can also call for sympathy strikes at other businesses, putting additional pressure on the misbehaving company.
In the U.S. capital got sympathy striking illegalized as part of the Taft-Hartley Act around WWII, because labor exploiting network effects was just to unconscionable for the time.
See, this isn’t complicated. Privacy in the sense of Limiting Government Overreach is completely different than privacy in the sense of The Unwanted Dissemination of Embarrassing Personal Information.
The problem has nothing to do with the societal resignation you’re talking about. It isn’t even true. People are resigned that they cannot really prevent the dissemination of embarrassing information (some people would call that “growing up” ha ha). They’re not “resigned” that government overreach is inevitable.
The problem is that a lot of people WANT government overreach, as long as they perceive that it’s against the Other. That’s the problem. Advocates have failed because by conflating the two issues, they make no headway.
how do you figure? absolute SAE rate increases 2 percentage points. nothing changes about relative SAE rate. does it change anything about your choice between different health technologies? no.
The SAE rate increases 2 percentage points on average, as I understand it - not necessarily uniformly across interventions. It could be the case that medicine A has 4% SAE in healthy patients, and 5% in unhealthy* ones, whereas medicine B has 3% SAE in healthy and 6% in unhealthy - and without testing on unhealthy patients, you don't know that medicine B is riskier for those patients than A.
It could be that I'm totally misunderstanding, and that every medicine has the same elevation of risk of SAE for unhealthy patients, but that seems unlikely to me. You do have 'doctor' in your username though, so I'm probably embarrassing myself here.
*apologies for the healthy/unhealthy terminology, I don't know the right lingo to use here.
I don’t know. Just run Linux in a VM on macOS. What exactly is Apple not permitting you to do?
Asahi would have 100x more adoption if it was about better virtualization of Linux on macOS. It would be a DIFFERENT product and I guess that’s the point, right?
> Just run Linux in a VM on macOS. What exactly is Apple not permitting you to do?
High performance GPU for VMs, for starters. And the amount of crap that even a bare-bones macOS needs to load (and that consequently hog resources like RAM and CPU time) is a goddamn joke.
Apple makes excellent hardware (laptop, phone, mini...) to the point I'm willing to pay more for it, but I would prefer a lot to customize my SW. And so I avoid their hardware.
You cannot uninstall Music.app indeed. There is one toggle that hides all of Apple Music. It completely hides it, to the point that a link online to the service will error out.
I tried this for a virtualized full screen gnome desktop environment but the latency was unbearable. I also couldn't get passthrough of command/caps lock etc to the virtual machine stable. Finally connecting an USB device (like a yubikey) didn't work seamless.
another POV is that solutions that require no long term "durable workflow" style storage provide exponentially more value. if you are making something that requires durable workflows, you ought to spend a little bit of time in product development so that it does not require durable workflows, instead of a ton of time making something that isn't very useful durable.
for example, you can conceive of a software vendor that does the end-to-end of a real estate transaction: escrow, banking, signature, etc. The IT required to support the model of such a thing would be staggering. Does it make sense to do that kind of product development? That is inventing all of SAP, on top of solving your actual problem. Or making the mistake of adopting temporal, trigger, etc., who think they have a smaller problem than making all of SAP and spend considerable resources convincing you that they do.
The status quo is that everyone focuses on their little part to do it as quickly as possible. The need for durable workflows is BAD. You should look at that problem as, make buying and selling homes much faster and simpler, or even change the order of things so that less durability is required; not re-enact the status quo as an IT driven workflow.
Why are real-estate transactions complex and full of paperwork? Because there are history books filled with fraud. There are other types of large transactions that also involve a lot of paperwork too, for the same reason.
Why does a company have extensive internal tracing of the progress of their business processes, and those of their customers? Same reason, usually. People want accountability and they want to discourage embezzlement and such things.
Interesting thought but how do you sell an idea that sounds like...
"How we've been doing things is wrong and I am going to redesign it in a way that no one else knows about so I don't have to implement the thing that's asked of me"
Haha, another way of describing what you are saying is enterprise sales: “give people exactly what they ask for, not what makes the most sense.”
Businesses that require enterprise sales are probably the worst performing category of seed investing. They encompass all of Ed tech and health tech, which are the two worst industry verticals for VC; and Y Combinator has to focus on an index of B2B services for other programmers because without that constraint, nearly every “do what you are asked for” would fail. Most of the IT projects business do internally fail!
In fact I think the idea you are selling is even harder, it is much harder to do B2B enterprise sales than knowing if the thing you are making makes sense and is good.
You: That's ridiculous! We need one universal union that covers everyone's needs. Yeah!
Situation: There are 15 competing unions.
