Who was they? When in the late 80's. Where was this published? What does "2000 or so" mean?
Well, everyone's favorite AGW guy, David Suzuki did so. I do remember a few things from back then, of course there are others as well but I'd have to actually find the papers from gradeschool they gave us.
Well, he is technicaly a scientist, but Zoology and Climatology aren't exactly the same field, and a TV program isn't exactlty a peer reviewed journal.
What, increasing inequality - no, that was Maggie. Less liberty? It was Maggie that passed the Putin style law against "homosexual propaganda". More division? Yup Maggie again.
Please give me examples of "left-wing" governments, by your definition, that you would like to see emulated elsewhere. One of the things I often run into in these discussions is people who support "left-wing" ideals comparing their ideal government with actual governments and then saying, "See, my ideals for government are better than yours."
And vice-versa of course.
Left wing governments I have had personal experience with:
Labour, UK 1974-1979 Partie Socialiste Francais 1981-1993, 1997-2002, 2012-...
In neither case did things descend into poverty and repression.
You can get an ATT "Go Phone" SIM card and a nice plan for $30/month which is what I have for my wife... more voice, SMS and data than she ever uses for her smartphone.
In France 20EUR (27 USD) gets you unlimited calls and SMS to French mobiles and landlines, unlimited calls to European landlines, unlimited calls to US and Canadian mobiles and landlines and unlimited data (speed capped after 3Gb/month).
The fact remains that even if the Open ZFS code base was re-licensed they would still have GPLv2 compatibility issues with any other reasonable licence choice.
Did not the person who "actually wrote the CDDL" say in public "Mozilla was selected [as the basis for the CDDL] partially because it is GPL incompatible. That was part of the design when they released OpenSolaris."
Yes, some other licenses are incompatible with GPLv2, put to claim that the incompatibility of the CDDL with GPLv2 is the "fault" of the GPL is absurd.
I understand that in Europe they define those terms differently, since almost everyone there accepts the idea that the solution to problems is greater government power and the only question remaining is how that power is exercised.
Nope,
Right-wing = defense of entrenched priviledge. Left-wing = liberty, equality, brotherhood. (and sisterhood too, of course).
The communists did many things wrong but they at least they saw some value in scientific research and managed to turn Russia from a medieval kingdom into a modern technologically advanced country.
There is no need for them to "support" a compatible phone.
Apparently they refuse to activate phones they don't "support", but the trick is to activate the SIM in a "supported" phone and then transfer it to the phone you want to use.
I suggest you contact your local consumer advocate or anti-monopoly authorities, Verizon seem to be behaving in anti-competetive ways that would get their arses kicked where I come from.
Slashdot Mirror
Yes, everything is up for grabs, but the way you "dissent" is by doing science, not "debating".
The problem is step (2), which is a lot of self-serving bollocks.
No, step 2 is correct. It's just that "unusually intelligent" should be read like "differently abled" rather than "very intelligent".
It's unusual to see people as dumb as many slashdot posters.
(Whether this applies to this post or not is up to the reader to decide).

Scientists. [sic]
This source is dated 1960.
New Scientist.
The year 2000.
So, all scientists are called Robert Cushman Murphy now?
Robert Cushman Murphy (April 29, 1887-March 20, 1973) was an American ornithologist and former Lamont curator of birds for the American Museum of Natural History.
And 1960 is "the late 80's"
And "New Scientist" is a peer reviewed journal?
Hide the decline... Hide the decline...
Sorry, I don't see what this has to do with the divergence problem, could you elucidate?
That's pretty good, I remember back in the late 80's that they said that it would all be gone by 2000 or so.
Ah, you remember that, do you?
"they" said.

US' higher expenditures are explained by the availability of much better treatments.
And we know they're better because outcomes are better in the US.
Except they're not.
Whoops.
Well, yes, they did.
Price went up by a billion or so each time.
(Haha, only serious).
Soviet Russia and China are your canonical examples of "Left wing government"?
Tsarist Russia and Imperial China were havens of freedom, equality and harmony?
Couldn't that $16 billion have been better spent devising sneaky new ways to deny medical care from the people paying into the healthcare system?
That would be alot better for the shareholders and executives, and would probably only kill a few thousand people.
What part of "UK NHS" do you not understand?
Anyway, everybody is thinking of the shareholders, the lucky shareholders of CSC who got 10 billion GBP for nothing.
Zowee!

Any other reasonable licence choice?
BSD isn't reasonable now?
If your definition is correct, why are the results of every "left wing" government less liberty, greater inequality and more division?
Examples?
Which came first, CDDL or GPLv2?
Did not the person who "actually wrote the CDDL" say in public "Mozilla was selected [as the basis for the CDDL] partially because it is GPL incompatible. That was part of the design when they released OpenSolaris."
Yes, some other licenses are incompatible with GPLv2, put to claim that the incompatibility of the CDDL with GPLv2 is the "fault" of the GPL is absurd.
You Trots failed to feed and clothe your people
Where have Trots been in government since Lev Davidovich moved to Mexico?
(Answer - the USA, lots of the early neo-cons were ex Trots).
I understand that in Europe they define those terms differently, since almost everyone there accepts the idea that the solution to problems is greater government power and the only question remaining is how that power is exercised.
Nope,
Right-wing = defense of entrenched priviledge.
Left-wing = liberty, equality, brotherhood. (and sisterhood too, of course).
Government is a means, not an end.
Bad as all politicians are, right wing ones are still a lot less scaring than our new overlords from the left.
Where on earth do you live that you can talk about "our new overlords from the left"?
The communists did many things wrong but they at least they saw some value in scientific research and managed to turn Russia from a medieval kingdom into a modern technologically advanced country.
Don't forget Lysenko.
So Verizon aren't doing VoLTE?
You don't have a multi-petabyte array with mission criitical data at home?
Because the CDDL was specificly written to be incompatible with the GPL.
In fact, I'm wrong.
The verizon LTE network does use SIM's.
There is no need for them to "support" a compatible phone.
Apparently they refuse to activate phones they don't "support", but the trick is to activate the SIM in a "supported" phone and then transfer it to the phone you want to use.

Oh, sorry, you are living in the previous century.
Say Hi to Ma Bell for me.
(Those who give up freedom to have a working phone network...)
(P.S. I really am sorry, didn't mean to troll, I just forgot about those wierd non-sim networks).
