"Robert Reich says that Disney wants us to believe it sat down and had a sweet, little reasonable confab with Jimmy Kimmel, and that's why Disney has brought him back.
As Robert Reich says, this is bulltwat.
Here's what happened:
"Shortly after Kimmel’s suspension was announced, Disney stock dipped about 3.5 percent and continued to trade lower in subsequent days."

@cstross I started responding yesterday but got fed up and had to hit Save and come back.
As you might expect, a lot of the questions (at least as far in as I've got) tend to assume that you agree with the proposal.
Real estate once drove China’s economic growth. Now it’s holding it back.
As China signals bold moves to revive its economy, all eyes are on its collapsing property market. Can the government restore the confidence of would-be homebuyers? #press

>"Using a DAW on Linux kind of seems silly to me"
I totally get that. I do a canned podcast, for which
Ardour on Linux works great for me.
If I were a musician / mixer / masterer I may feel differently.
I just think it's cool that the Linux audio software is much better than it was just a few years back.
As for the stack devs I don't really have an opinion as I don't follow what's going on there.
In ~2009 I was interviewed on video for something intended to go public, related to this conference we used to have for Microsoft Exchange that was canceled in the early 2000s and was being brought back.
As part of the process for all these behind-the-scenes interviewers, they had a person whose job it was to make us nerds relax on camera.
So the interviewer’s technique for doing this was to tell everyone a joke up front to get them laughing on camera (and get some good b-roll).
