    The whole divergence into ‘well i guarantee heres 1/2/3 examples of a professional female athlete better at x/y/z than most of you men’ is predictably dull

    And for thousands of years in basically every sport in every society, the competition is segregated by gender. What is the potential “thoughtful solution” here? Because I’ve not seen a single proposal yet, but only accusations of malice for daring to even broach this subject.

    If you’re talking about the question of this poll alone, yes its necessarily a broad question to gauge the general sentiment on various trans issue (not a forensic study of sports). The polling is done primarily online, so there is no incentive or social credit to virtue signal through faking a response.

    Are people allowed to discuss and hold positions on any topic out of principle alone? Or will you gatekeep the discussion by poisoning the well unless the topic exceeds some rarity threshold?

    Being against trans in opposite-birth-gender sports is 77% of those who took a position. Which is the 2nd strongest consensus after being FOR protection of trans in other aspects of society (86%)

    The numbers on there look very sketchy. Numbeo.com crowdsources its values and tends to be accurate. (You can check it against all the places you’ve been to)

    Using worldbank and oecd ppp adjustment, their earnings buys $68k us equivalent in 2022, 74k today. it implies a basket of goods is cheaper in norway than in america in 2024 which seems nuts because norway is wildly expensive

    Adjusted for what cost? like port/terminal specific financials? hard to back it out with granularity due to reasons ryskey mentioned

    I can see an argument that performance metrics for that line of work jeopardizes safety. Seniority rules probably make sense for those jobs, in addition to giving a security blanket. They seem to want their cake and eat it too. For the example $20hr wage (single digit percentile of their pay distribution), the rejected $5 raise represents 25% increase. With $40 wage ($80k annualized) thats a 12.5% raise.

    Anybody who can crane a container from ship to dock can learn how to program as well. Anybody who can unload 15 tons of cargo can learn how to program for God's sake.

    I'm not saying that that outcome will be guaranteed. I'm saying that we should atleast try.

    Was it the gold chain or the transition glasses that gave it away?
