What we learned from COVID? That oil is worthless in a society without consumption. That healthcare has to be public because health is public. That 50% of jobs can be done from home while the other 50% deserve more than they're being paid. That we live in a society not an economy
I don’t like paying higher gas prices either but it’s incredible that people will buy GOP outrage on gas that’s $5 instead of $3.50—but then excuse GOP for keeping the min wage at $7.25 instead of $15, insulin at $1200 instead of $35, & paid leave at 0 weeks instead of 12 weeks.
Did I miss the announcement that U.S. oil companies are patriotically ramping up production to ease the price of oil? No? I didn't think so. Maybe we should take their $440B subsidies paid by the government and use them to give low income people a credit for gas purchases.
Seems like if fossil fuels drive the climate crisis, fund wars, tear through Indigenous lands, endanger Black lives, blow up, are priced By OPEC, pollute oceans, cost more than renewables, cause earthquakes, and are in limited supply, maybe they don’t do much for energy security
9.1/ I'm exploring a carbon currency (CC) with a new tokenomics model:
The amount in circulation is pegged to the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.
The inflation, therefore, is the amount of new CO2 released (currently 2ppm every year).
Folks building forms, please stop running your field validations on every key-press. I don’t need to be yelled at that my information is wrong while I’m putting it in. 😬
NPM has reverted to a previous version of the faker.js package and Github has suspended my access to all public and private projects. I have 100s of projects. #AaronSwartz
