Those are indeed failings of western companies and governments. Those failings do not justify ignoring CCP actions toward Uyghurs

Where is your evidence for this?

By evidence, I mean

  1) empirical, not anecdotal
  2) from a non-partisan source

"Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead

Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to doc.tidalcycles.org. If you visit this site, attackers could try to steal information like your passwords, emails, or credit card details.

What can you do about it?

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it. You can notify the website’s administrator about the problem."

(Another UX nudge... the logic tool uses a folder icon to get to the examples, while th graph tool uses an "Open" button)

IMO, they'd be much more helpful/accessible with some default examples. For example, the graph algorithm and logic expression tools just drop you into a blank canvas.

Nevertheless, the answer to the title's question is: we'll all be living in abject poverty while you're yelling "told you so"

Not even close.

People do immoral, unethical or illegal things if they see an advantage in doing so.

People have been doing such things since well before the onset of recorded history.

In some circles, it's even celebrated (Uber, AirB&B...)

Your second link lists only St. Anthony Family Practice Residency Program as an affiliation.

I can't say one way or the other whether your assertions are valid. But your choice of sources warrants caution.

Always means bad

You don't have to be an asshole to be creative

edit: To be perfectly clear, I'm not accusing or disparaging the poster. I'm stating a general principle

$59/month for access to high quality data such as this is a no-brainer!

Little to nothing in life should be treated as a dichotomy. In this case obsessing over global news vs complete avoidance are both poor choices.

Similarly, while global events may not always be directly actionable, in other cases they are. Ironically for the author, the initial onset of Covid was one of those cases.

As kind of an acid test, I searched for "Repo Man" (in Films). It doesn't seem to be included in your database. 21 other films were displayed instead, none of which seemed particularly relevant.

This isn't a complaint. This aligns with my interests, and I hope you succeed. But the back end needs more work.

Each ends with a hard "g", followed by a soft "g" (like Khashoggi is pronounced)
