The same mechanisms could be applied tho. The frequency and power limitations are in place because the stuff doesn't work without them. Radio broadcasters and equipment manufacturers have an incentive to cooperate on this.
Anarchism as a political stance isn't an absense of governance. It is the stance that governance should be collaborative and, to the extent possible, voluntary. That means reducing heirarchies of all kind to the bare minimum needed to acomplish a goal.
For standardized things such as these examples you've given, they already work in an anarchist way. 802.11 is created by the ieee lan/man standards comnitee, which takes input from a lot of groups to formulate the standard. The standard itself is fully opt-in, you don't have to implement it as written, your stuff just won't work unless you do.
Safety and effectiveness of medical procedures isn't determined by a standards body, but rather by evolving consensus among medical professionals. What one thinks is safe, another may see as risky. As an example, in the US tonsil removal used to be considered safe and done often. Now its considered a last-resort procedure.
Sure, there are related non slur words, but those aren't applied to people. "To retard" is a verb, not an adjective or noun. "retardent" is an adjective, but describes the action of soemething, not a quality. Using the noun or past tense adjective is the slur.
And language doesn't have logic. Like, its pretty weird to suggest it does. Why is fuck a curse? Because its a curse. Why do we call blue things blue? Becabse they are blue. Language and logic rarely intersect (except in lojban). Language is determined by usage, and the usage of that word as a noun is as a slur.
Thats not what he is being prossecuted for. He is being prosecuted for publishing secrets given to him by someone else, an activity that American journalists have engaged in forever and part of standard journalism.
Its also concerning because Assange is not a US citizen and was not in the US at the time he published. So he is being prosecuted for sonething which may not be a crime, which was done in a place the US has no jurisdiction, by a foreign citizen.
Meanwhile, white people have entry rates as expected for their proportion of the general population, and asian applicants have entry rates twice what you would expect: 12% of the population is taking 22% of the seats.
These numbers are American, but thats also the country where "diversity quotas" are an issue. What we can see from the outcomes is that the opportunity is given out unequally from the very beginning, and thus even with an entrance process with a bias towards black people, the system as a whole is so biased against black people that half as many are able to participate
If a person thinks more people should see an unpopular opinion, they snould upvote it. Theres no karma here. The function of up and down vote is promotion or relegation.
An upvote means that the content should be shared, a downvote means it should not.
I got consistent when I got a 5 year journal. Each page is one day, divided into five sections. Seeing that I would be revisiting it next year really helped motivate me, and reading previous years entries helps even more. Now I have several journals, and for the other ones, I either write in it when I do my 5 year, or I keep it open and jot in it all the time. The trick often is to just write something in it, and then its easier to keep going.
Also think about why you are journaling. Self reflection? Set an alarm. Memories? Read back in your old entries. Planning? Make it front and center so you look at it right away.
I don't have the privacy concerns, so this other bit might not help as much, but I also use stuff thats pleasant to use. It does't have to be luxury, but try going up a step. For paper, skip moleskin and look for a rhodia, leuchterm, or midori notebook. For pens, try a fountain pen like a platinum preppy, pilot kakuno, ot lamy safari. If you prefer ballpoint, skip the cheap ones ans get a Uni Signo gel pen or Pentel Energel gel pen. Having nicer stuff can really help motivate cause its nice to use.
being born rich isn't merit either, but it has lasting inpacts on HS grades, SAT scores, and placement in scholarly competitions. How do you propose to ensure schools aren't full of people who just bought their way in?
Swords were a personal defense status symbol. They were fairly expensive, required training, and were often legally restricted deoending when and where we are talking about. This is why they continue to have sich mystique.
Even if the inequality is completely accidental, shouldn't we do something about it? Like, we don't have to make everyone millionares, but if the system accidently makes some people suffer, shouldn't we try to change that?
