Making 400k and paying rent. Highly regarded.

Sorry, but you are trying to argue that black is white. It's pointless.

Do you not understand what sorry means?

I'm not insulting you. You're just wrong and you don't have the capacity to admit it.

Here's an example

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Severn_Crossing

It was built by a french company that specialised in bridge building.

The maintenance was not performed by the same company

Specialisation of skills is how you utilise capital efficiency

Sorry, but you are trying to argue that black is white. It's pointless.

You then present my argument back to me that it is expensive to have two specialised teams.

A maintenance crew does not build bridges. It would be too expensive to have architects and engineers sitting around waiting for a bridge to be built

It's an inefficient use of capital, which was my initial point... Just saying socialism fixes all problems is naive at best.

They are two different things you moron.

I have worked in civil engineering, maybe when you finish high school you could too!

You really don't understand why it would be more expensive to have two completely different crews?

🤦‍♂️

Hope he goes back to normal school for a while to make some friends and get laid

A monk asked Joshu, a Chinese Zen master: `Has a dog Buddha-nature or not?'

Joshu answered: `Mu.'  

Translated Mu = no thing

Rationalise that!

Lol. How many maintenance crews are pouring thousands of tons of steel reinforced concrete?

How many architects are maintaining bridges?

It's ok to admit when you're wrong you know?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 7 months ago (10 children)

Yes, one is construction, one is maintenance... These are different things...

Why do you think bridges need rebuilding? How many times has Arkadiko Bridge been rebuilt?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (12 children)

No, that'd be a stupid thing to think.

People who maintain bridges are not the same as those who build them though.

If your bridges constantly need rebuilding, you're not building very good bridges.

That's the fundamental difference.

Western philosophy is all about thinking, a separate sense of self, rationalism

Eastern, Buddhism, daoism etc is the opposite
