Oh, nice, Windows 11 will fix Teams!

The one problem with that is that I need to know I'm not being told about a meeting to take a print.

Well, my local mail service often has less lag than Teams...

It temporarily deletes my meetings just before they happen, so that I don't have to attend them!

Of course, when I open it later, the meetings are restored, with the original date, and no trace of the deletion. So not attending them is quite hard to explain to others. But it does save me from attending!

As long as it's not a water poodle...

is the first in the history where companies own the country

Hum... You need to learn some history.

Stuff like history, art, and how a fucking analog clock works

Well, I don't exactly disagree... but one of those things is completely different from the others.

I would agree more if we were talking literally about "how an analog clock works" instead of the convention to reading them. But it would still be a niche knowledge that you can take from Wikipedia if it ever becomes relevant to you.

Kids these days do absolutely still know how to read analog clocks.

Besides, they probably shouldn't put effort into that. Those things are close to useless nowadays. It's mostly a case of schools being conservative... but then, it's not that much of an effort, so there are more important things to care about.

Do you know what “Exchange-Value” represents?

An attempt of pushing some amount of subjectivity into his value theory, but still in a way that keeps it objective and still fails to predict trade.

None of the LTV hold up. For a start, it predicts that people won't ever trade. That's quite a big flaw because, you know, people do trade. Theories of value predicting people won't trade was a big problem by the time Marx was young. His one doesn't solve the problem at all, but well, it wasn't a problem anymore when he published.

The family of theories of value that predict that trade happens are called "subjective theories of value".

For example, the entire labor theory of value doesn't hold up on the real world and Economics had already better explanations for the phenomenon it was trying to explain.

In that it ignored the previous half a century of (well tested) advances on the area and just made claims that were already known not to hold on the real world.
