Can you provide some articles/material regarding right wingers wanting to lock things down in Sweden? I'm not familiar with Swedish politics and would be interested in reading more.
Stegenga calls these latter two “magic bullets,” a phrase coined by physician/chemist Paul Ehrlich to describe treatments that target the cause of a disease without disrupting the body’s healthy functions.
Researchers have labored mightily to find more magic bullets, but they remain rare. For example, imatinib, brand name Gleevec, is “an especially effective treatment” for one type of leukemia, Stegenga says. But Gleevec has “severe adverse effects, including nausea, headaches, severe cardiac failure and delayed growth in children.”
Also anyone else find this article annoying to read?
The poor do not see it that way. Years of fieldwork across the globe have led Ms Arora to conclude that when it comes to getting online, “play dominates work, and leisure overtakes labour.” Where people planning development strategies imagined, metaphorically at least, Blackberries providing new efficiencies and productivity, consumers wanted the chat, apps and games of the iPhone. Worthier uses tend to follow. But they are the cart not the horse.
freeCodeCamp is the biggest publication on Medium. Our open source community sends Medium about 5% of their total traffic.
But over the past year, Medium has become more aggressive toward us. They have pressured us to put our articles behind their paywalls. We refused. So they tried to buy us. (Which makes no sense. We’re a public charity.) We refused. Then they started threatening us with a lawyer. It's not just us. They are doing this to a lot of publications. And a lot of high profile people from the developer community are leaving Medium as a result.
Medium is a corporation founded by a billionaire who also accepted $132 million in venture capital.
"for this discovery of yours will create forgetfulness in the learners' souls, because they will not use their memories; they will trust to the external written characters and not remember of themselves. The specific which you have discovered is an aid not to memory, but to reminiscence, and you give your disciples not truth, but only the semblance of truth; they will be hearers of many things and will have learned nothing; they will appear to be omniscient and will generally know nothing; they will be tiresome company, having the show of wisdom without the reality."
- Socrates on writing/reading
The existence of hard and pressing problems does not mean all resources should be diverted to them - capitalism.
I feel you're exaggerating a bit much, though I get what you're trying to say.
