Having racial diversity at all levels of performance doesn’t mean that you’ve made it fair,

Agreed. Having diversity in winners is not proof that the game is fair.

I’m asserting that lacking diversity in winners is absolutely proof that the game is rigged.

And more importantly, I’m asserting that the people being loudly angry at measuring diversity are usually the same people rigging the game - and that they are specifically rigging the game against all of the rest of us, not just against any one minority.

The people rigging the game love to make a big loud vocal deal about our differences, because they know that united we can and will systemically dispose of them. They’re terrified of our power if we stand together.

Oh, neat!

We need a 91% tax bracket on income beyond $600,000. We need some sharp incentive for the wealthiest among us to avoid.

This is a fantastic idea, and it wouldn’t actually require eating any of them, necessarily.

Everyone is going to just tell you to install Linux Mint, and enjoy, but my deeply original opinion is…

That seems… overpowered.

Her mother sounds awesome.

That’s what I’m taking from this, as well.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

I agree with you in principle, but I kind of liked XP. It had some great features for retro gaming, which I don’t recall seeing before then.

I don’t love the idea that Nazis can lookup that I voted against their propaganda when it appears here.

Brings new meaning to the words “People centric security”. Humans with integrity are the remaining defense, when the computers fail.

In this theoretical, we already know the dark skinned runners were forced into a later start. That’s easily documented and confirmed.

So we enact policies that correct for late start times. That’s equitable.

But we measure the diversity of skin tone of when people cross the finish line. If we don’t see diversity there matching the race entrants, we can take that as evidence that the race officials are still corrupt.

Corrupt race officials hate this approach.

That’s an episode of Black Mirror, right? Lol.

Good call! And maybe we tie the boulders in the bridge ceiling to something, while we’re at it.

I could almost go as far as not routing incredibly hot plasma through the helm officer’s control panel, but I think I love tradition too much.

So…my process (which you just accurately described) could be replaced by an LLM, after all? Hooray! Monkey feed isn’t too expensive, but a million mouths is still a million mouths.

Poverty and other lack of opportunity are how we target programs that elevate people toward equity.

Diversity is how we can objectively measure outcomes - whether people in positions of power are actually applying the above principles.

I would have a deep meaningful conversation with two betazoids at the same time.

This comment right here, Section 31 officer.
