curl is the sandbox. It exchanges packets with the internet and then outputs a safely sanitized byte stream.

Probably not. Why pay someone who's willing to work for free? When he stops working for free, then you pay him. Open source is not exempt from economic principles.

I think at some limit the health insurance pays back the employer, right?

Individuals don't but lots of companies do, so that they can threaten to rugpull it later if you don't pay them millions.

Nice shadow marketing for Kagi in there, linking to a Kagi image result page that asks you to sign up to view it, instead of the image.

They're by structural design but no individual employer thinks they're making a bullshit job. It's a bit like how every vendor sets prices but really, the federal reserve does.

Um, the police will put a gun to your head if you're homeless. To not be homeless you can build on your land or someone else's land. If you build on someone else's land the police puts a gun to your head. To own land you need to participate in the system, and then after a whole lifetime working the cobalt mines the system might just let you get a section of property by the time you die if you're lucky.

Somehow only laborers get price discovered. Amazon hasn't got price discovered, not has Google, in decades. Weird. It's almost like Econ 101 isn't the whole story.

Exactly. I'd like to live in a concrete box - *my* concrete box - but it's not allowed!

Was the world less prosperous, safe, healthy, and abundant in 2005? If you don't measure it in clock cycles per second?

The government that runs the benefits programs. They make you jump through hoops to get any benefits. The first hoop is even knowing that a program exists that you qualify for.
