Feather meal is used in animal feed.

Manure is also fed to cows.

"Poultry litter can be used as a feedstuff... There are currently no federal or Missouri regulations governing the use of poultry litter as a feedstuff"


Sometimes EU regulations isn't that bad.

Poultry litter has been banned as cattle feed since 2001, partially due to mouth and foot disease and BSE and to some extent animal welfare.


What does "ESG forces" add to the discussion other than culture-war flaming?


It's a big reason why SpaceX is staying private. To understand this news it helps to know that Musk considers ESG to be the enemy.


And wtf is ESG?



Thanks


The accuracy that people want to actively sabotage Elon's plans for Tesla.


I entered the job market in late 2000. There was no reason to hire a junior engineer when every hiring manager and senior engineer knew 10 friends who recently lost their jobs. I found work on less desirable projects and yes it affected my career trajectory and it sucked. Starting out has always sucked for most people.


Jobs stop mattering when they get power too. It all makes a lot more sense when you realize that party doesn't want economic growth.


The people who should read this article and won't are actually an anti-growth movement. The silicon valley bros I work with are lapping up the sabotage because they want a lower standard of living in America and less science and innovation because they are already comfortable enough. Their sites are set only on the short-term gains of anti-Muslim and anti-abortion sentiment and "though talk" on immigration. Results are not that important. They claim that there would be enough funding if universities funded it with their endowments.

The anti-government sentiment is frankly anti-American. Even the ones who are naturalized don't know the basics about how ballots are validated ("If my wife vote with a provisional ballot, couldn't just anybody?"). I thought there was some testing for naturalization but it must be easy to cheat.

Anyone who convinced themselves that "economic anxiety" was actually a thing should talk to any MAGA or "centrists" about the present state of the economy.


SV bros want less science and innovation, and are anti-abortion / anti-immigration? Have you been to SV?


Maybe they meant before X/Twitter.com, before Google, before Meta, before... wait, what's left? PayPal mafia much? Anduril? Oh you meant startups? That will then be bought by those?

There is an ideal of SF but SV isn't SF, definitely not non-tech SF.

So... you might think of a version of SV that existed, maybe, at some point. It might even still exist as some rebellious employees of those large corporations but in practice people with the money and power in SV I believe now are pretty much with such a stance, yes, sadly IMHO.

Wind has turned, in SV too.



Thanks for bothering with the reference but not convinced the echo chamber is ready for that.

Your account has been repeatedly breaking the site guidelines with flamewar comments and personal attacks. Moreover, you've been using HN primarily for political battle (something which is not allowed here, regardless of which politics you're for or against). Since we asked you to stop doing these things and you haven't stopped, I've banned the account.

If you don't want to be banned, you're welcome to email hn@ycombinator.com and give us reason to believe that you'll follow the rules in the future. They're here: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html.

Edit: the other commenter was also breaking the rules, of course. I've responded to that user elsewhere in the thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45595217.


The utter lack of self-awareness needed to post something like this now should humiliate them, of course it's a throwaway account.


With all those pronouns and not an antecedent in sight, what and who are you taking about?


You don't see how the President could sensibly spin this as a way to send troops into Chicago.


Is it bad to be a threat to democracy? Some people hold a point of view that there is something other than democracy serves their agenda better. I don't agree but it's actually a popular point of view. Are we supposed to be so afraid to point that out that we censor ourselves?


> Some people hold a point of view that there is something other than democracy serves their agenda better.

Well, since they don't believe in democracy, I suppose they won't be too concerned when their opinions are discarded. What do they want, representation?


Yes


I question the president’s cognitive state if he openly stated there would be some “pain” and then when the statistics show he was correct, he attacks the BLA director and claims the economy is booming.

The president and his defenders are playing us when they appear to want a growing economy. They don’t.


Thankfully, the president doesn't need to be fully cognitive to be president, they just need to win an election every 4 years.


What did JD Vance know about Trump’s health when he joined the campaign and why did he keep it from us?


I was thinking the same thing. What if making gold trophies isn't enough and DOJ wants a backdoor? The appearance of values can't be that important anymore because we are witnessing decisions by the company and CEO in his personal capacity.
