Treating kids like grown ups is very important for development.

We have a very difficult time recruiting workers to existing manufacturing plants that have very competitive salaries.

Developed country out in the middle of nowhere. Prices are very high vs the US. Source: kiwi living in the states.

$6 from the farmers market.

This is actually a really good lens per Ken Rockwell with very little downside. Ken is unbiased in his reviews and leaves lots of good details to back himself up.

As a kiwi that left for the US, things are getting a bit strange in New Zealand. So many folks are becoming openly racist vs. what I see in the states. Granted, I don’t live in the south, but still… I was shocked when I went back to visit at the rhetoric being used.

That’s a really great point. I like to reserve my Friday afternoons for side projects or learning. This gives me something fun to look forward to and keeps me in touch with engineering.

*makes up the info for you.

Biden is commiting genocide? That’s an interesting take.

That’s what happens when you stimulate an economy that was already doing well and then pass the buck to the next guy.

The breakup of the chemical industry has done nothing good for investors. Haven’t they learned from what happened with Dow and DuPont?

I like how you skipped over the part that they are already represented by a union and a second union is attempting a hostile takeover with violence. These two unions have been competing since 1998 when AMCU broke away from NUM.
