Then those of us able to get more might be pushed into taking the risk of making our own company and competing against the major players who are currently controlling the market by paying more than God to keep talent focused on selling ads instead of creating value?
But seriously this is not just a privacy thing. It's also an accessibility problem. Why is it that we have lost the art of just making a web page that does stuff, and then enhancing that functionality?
My response is. You lied not me, and I know how many recruiters emailed me this week and you don't. Please don't play those games, I am here because I want to be. Lies make me not want to be.
Yeah I'm replaceable, but the pain of that replacement is usually more than the pain of making a sales guy eat some crow.
The job market seems to be tight because the folks hiring are unwilling to pay folks to keep up with the inflation we're seeing. It's not worth it for many people in a family to take outside work when childcare costs so much more.
How do you suppose to quantify that? How do you suppose the Fed should quantify that? How do you suppose the parent poster can justifiably say we're at full employment without a hand-wavy appeal to authority?
I won't agree or disagree with your comment, I will just say that the parent poster's comments are all unsupported by data. Clearly, we had a realm only two years ago with (1) millions of people more in the labor market, (2) inflation at 1/4 of what it is now.
We also have been told for two years that inflation like this was impossible, despite editorial after editorial from non-Keynesians saying that we should expect high inflation and supply shocks. This is because supply shocks inevitably happen when capital is mispriced and aggregate demand is forced via government spending. The notoriously smooth supply chains (ha ha) of Soviet command economies was not a historical aberration generated via inflation.
So I won't be listening to the people who have been wrong for two years. Their economic model is wrong, and we can expect their predictions to look like the "Cloud of Points" section of the Phillips curve from the 1970s [1].

The FRED numbers saying who is seeking work is the data and far supersedes the source you're not even naming. I'm guessing you're upset because a certain % of the population isn't in the workforce. Well, that's not what full employment is. Random commentors are on the internet don't decide the "full employment" really is. The term full employment applies to those people that are seeking work and can't find it. Unemployment is quite low.

"Inflation like this". I'm amazed that we've returned to inflation levels that were the norm for many, many decades during times of relative prosperity, and inflationistas think that they've suddenly been vindicated. No, I'm sorry, 7% isn't the Zimbabwe Republic inflation you've predicted for decades ad nauseum, and no, we've not suddenly adopted a Soviet command economy.
Ultimately I only have anecdotes. But I suppose we could look at the child-care sectors employment growth vs other sectors to see if it's recovering at the same rate as the rest of the economy.
Not very strong evidence but I think it would support the idea that more families are taking care of children in the household economy rather than the cash economy if it is recovering less quickly.
Being opensource doesn't imply the game server will allow modified builds to work. Being able to see the code doesn't mean you will find a suitable way to circumvent the anticheat.
That being said, I agree it would be harder to maintain an open source anticheat effectively.
How would hardware attest to the game server that the player cannot see through walls, and that their aim is not nudged (subtly or overtly) in the direction of enemy faces? Keeping in mind that the cheater has full control over the software running on their computer, so they can decide what to send to the server. Also the cheater doesn't need to alter the game itself, they could access the game memory and implement their aimbot by having a clever mouse-driver.
I think it's a choice with lots of positives and negatives tradeoffs on both sides (in-kernel anti-cheat vs userland anti-cheat), where any choice is not gonna make everyone happy.
How much data a in-kernel or user-land anti-cheat can easily be detected by observing the traffic that flows out from your network, so it really doesn't matter if it's open source or not.
The biggest roadblock to a open source in-kernel anti-cheat is not "exposing the amount of data they extract from you", but rather it exposes how the anti-cheat is working, which is working against the efficiency of the anti-cheat. If you know how they detect you're cheating, it's much easier to overcome that hurdle.
In most cases, security-by-obscurity is obviously flawed, but when it comes to cheat/fraud detection, exposing how it happens makes it's core value less efficient.
This has interesting implications for the events of the past 2 years in general given how little power any of the levels of Government had to prevent protests from interrupting their exercise of power and monopoly on force.

Part of why so many people disbelieve Covid is because there was massive protests worldwide. Yellow vests in France, Farmers in the Netherlands and india, BLM in USA. But most relevant...
China marched in and took over Hong Kong. They'll never have another free election. The coincidence that COVID leaked out of a lab at basically the same time is pretty improbable.
(And that could actually happen. Say the state decides that they don't want to do X, but state or federal law says they have to. Well, fine, but there's a fee for X. The state just requires that you have to pay it in gold or silver.)
