—Q:”Does Propertarianism rely on markets for healthcare?”—
1) subsidy for survival(underclass),
2) insurance against tragedy(working class),
3) commercial insurance (middle class), and
4) commercial insurance and payment for research and development (upper class).
That is what I recommend. These are all market solutions. And they are the best market solutions that I can define.

HANDLING HOSTILE DISCOURSE WITH ONE QUESTION
—“You don’t let the enemy dictate the terms of the debate. You just kill them.”— Jerrick Harald
There exists only one form debate: perfect reciprocity. All the rest is negotiation until we reach a point of perfect reciprocity. If you are not engaging in perfect reciprocity, then you are engaging in negotiation. In mere negotiation we are outside of reciprocity, and therefore violence, fraud, cooperation, avoidance, and boycott are all on the table.
Always ask “Are we are engaged in a debate, wherein we speak cooperatively with perfect reciprocity? Or are we engaged in a negotiation in which we attempting to determine whether we may cooperate? Or are we engaged in threatening, to determine whether we will engage in violence?”
“OK, so you are threatening me, right? Then I will respond with violence.”

YOU DON’T NEED TO UNDERSTAND WOMEN, REALLY
—“Understanding women is not difficult. It is useless.”—Francesco Principi
This statement appears humorous but it is profound.
Even if you do understand them, it’s irrelevant because you cannot change them.
We only need understand that which we can use, change, or avoid.
Understanding requires reason, but women are far less rational creatures out of evolutionary necessity, and as irrational creatures
Rationality is necessary for crafts, hunting, war, and politics. Women live in a world of absorbing and reacting to events, not constructing possibilities.
Raising offspring with other women is not a matter of supply but of demand.
You do not need to understand women, just enjoy them, love them, try to make them happy if you can afford to maintain them, do favors for them to buy options on the future if you can’t, or avoid them and let them be women otherwise.
This is a VERY WESTERN approach to women, in which they are free within the affairs of women, but not empowered to interfere in the affairs of men.
Women can NEVER understand men because they cannot imagine our simplicity, our needs, or our severity. They can understand our feelings that are similar to theirs, but not our perceptions or our ambitions, or the feelings they do not share.
The best we can do is love them – meaning accept them for what they are; and limit them – meaning prevent their externalization of harm to the tribe due to their impulses evolved for her and her offspring, just as we prevent the internalization of men’s harm to individuals within the tribe due to their impulses evolved for the world outside of it.
And the best we can do for both is to pair off into couples and take care of the interests of the other. Because we are compatible if we are not equal, or even that similar.

Go ahead. Say it. Women are another asset. The most valuable asset. They are along for the ride. All else is a signal luxury.

Women are naturally dysgenic in politics out of utility. Men are naturally eugenic in politics out of necessity.

THE RELATIONSHIP ECONOMY
Men trade money, labor, affection, and friendship, for sex, care, affection and friendship. It’s just a matter of whether you’re buying sex (prostitute), and affection and friendship (girlfriend), or care (marriage).

If women don’t interfere in the affairs of men, then must grant them safety in exchange, and attempt at all times to save them from fear. If women interfere in the affairs of men, then we must only treat them as men. Which they universally object to, by using all forms of name calling. That is the source of feminist argument.

Sequence: Writing a sequence encourages you to think about the difference between a set of choices along a spectrum. This is call “Deflationary” reasoning. We call it ‘analytic’ but this term is questionable.

—“Why spend time on becoming specifically a _web_ developer?”— Maxim V Filimonov
I think if you study comp-sci at a university there are more intellectually interesting, and more profitable, problems -where you can work with better people.
I think consulting and travel working on system integration is always financially more rewarding. And if you are curious about the world, certainly more interesting.
I think that if you want to practice a craft for money there is nothing more interesting for people, and I am not sure there is much more *achievable* for them.
Web is largely marketing and social. System Integration is largely business related. System and driver development is for engineers. And this reflects the structure of all other technological crafts.
I prefer to work on business software, even if my specialization is user interfaces. But I recognize that it’s my bias.
My view is that:
(a) Browser alliances are holding up innovation and driving up costs – the standards movement was NOT advantageous, but inhibitive.
(b) Javascript is trying to please the bottom and causing us tragic problems across the rest of the spectrum, and driving up costs world wide.
(c) Java is and always was a horrible technology by which to circumvent failures of operating systems.
(d) Microsoft is holding up innovation because of the network effect, the availability of rents,
(e) Apple has abandoned professionals and therefore competition with microsoft.
(f) Google has failed in its attempts at defeating microsoft’s monopoly (because google sucks at UI).
(g) that the future is just javascript and ilbraries and the ‘node’ technology that circumvents the server burden.
The browser is already the OS, and JS is already its language.
