> In some states you have to click into the listing before learning that there's an extra $500 cleaning fee on top of the nightly rate :)

And the “house rules” still require you to clean the place before you leave.

First line in the article:

> Each figure is the shareholder wealth a founder’s company created, now held by index funds, pensions, employees and co-founders, minus what the founder kept.

> telling people it's all "black magic" and "wizardry" (and worst of all, saying "even RF engineers don't understand RF") makes it seem like it's not worth studying.

I think the opposite is true. It being advertised as difficult to understand is one of the reasons I personally decided to study RF Engineering. The prospect of learning something so challenging pulled me in. The Smith Chart helped.

> Springer Nature is nevertheless still selling the empty PDF for $39.95.

I wish I could say such behavior was shocking. Everything Springer touches turns to shit.

That’s a pittance compared to their revenue.

> values that people in the US might care about (freedom of speech, limited govt, etc).

The US federal government forced Paramount to take Colbert off the air. Seems that people in the US don’t actually value these things.

> What values specifically are you optimizing for here?

Probably not being fascist.

So wealthy people can go ahead and violate your privacy interests, but not really anyone else? I’m sorry, but this is a bad answer to the problem. The solution is to fix the redaction process, not to go with some awkward indirect solution that creates its own set of problems WITHOUT solving the original stated problem.

> The Bolsheviks certainly were good at it, yet we don't learn about the 23+ million they massacred in US schools.

Those of us who paid attention certainly did.

>The jokes about "5G gives you cancer" is probably not as funny, if you think about the sleep you miss while you doom scroll.

802.11g was good enough for that, no need for 5G.

Trump equivocated when it came time to condemn people shouting “The Jews will not replace us” and the Proud Boys. Anyone who thinks it’s just about illegal immigrants is delusional.

> The current administration was voted in with an anti-immigration mandate

Given that they’re underwater for approval rating on immigration it seems both you and they have misread the room. Most people’s objections have to do with immigrants who are violent criminals that are going around neighborhoods hunting for cats and dogs to eat. This is what their campaign was highlighting as a problem. They have not been cracking down specifically on those immigrants. For this, they have no mandate.
