Look, I’m not trying to assign humans a lower value or anything. I’m just saying that from an accounting perspective, most employees are just a necessity to keep the thing running, like electricity. The process of R&D is a bit of an exception and some businesses will even give their software or other intellectual property a value in the books and depreciate it over time. But even then, the investment is into the product, not the people. Because the people can bail on you at any time, barring some special exceptions.

I’m not gonna muddle the expense vs investment, because either way, your still devauling the actual humans in this. Trying so say your not, then dobjuag that, undermines the first line.

Thats my issue. Is that the language we use to talk about real people matters. And talking about it like they don’t contribute, just expense is a huge part of it.

What, the 0 dollars the billionaire pay?

If they don’t contribute their share to taxes, why would I as a citizen want them?

He could’ve made more money if he didn’t have to pay it. Similarly to the raw materials, electricity, and every other unavoidable business expense.

Citation needed with data. Because I’d argue pay on the factory is also proportional to quality output. So would they have still made the money with a worse product?

No, time contracts, not space.

Nope!

Information can only travel at the speed of light.

During my undergraduate CERN did this experiment (a decade ago now).

And they had the shocking result of the second wave function collapsed faster than c.

That was until a clock was found to be loosley connected and caused a timing error, that would account for the slower than c speed.

It actually is.

Distance itself is expanding in the universe. Like two dots on an expanding balloon doesn’t mean there’s less balloon, its just the distance itself that expanded.

And the further something is away from you, the more distanve there is to expand. Meaning it moves faster the farther away it is.

What can not travel faster than the speed of light is ‘information’. So we have to wait even longer for light and information about a distant object to get here.

They host relay servers.

Its how they get around networking shenaigins.

You stream media to them, and then it gets passed to you back wherever you are.

Premium allows you to share with friends.

They do, but its bad.

Its just a handled device that stores from only your ps5. Can nor play anything itself.
