UnitedHealthcare Group should be in the picture as well, with Andrew Witty $18.8 M (from 2021) 23.5 M last year, according to another commenter.

Witty is the CEO of the group. Thompson was only CEO of UnitedHealthcare - one of the parent conglomerates’ many subsidiaries.

Is everyone 5 days behind LW? I don’t quite really grasp how exactly there is a 5 day lag, shouldn’t Lemmy be close to real time? I don’t fully understand what’s going on in those charts but it looks like the delay will be gone in a few weeks/months?

As far as hosting it on a different instance, this is just kinda a playful experiment. If it goes well anyone can copy the list and put it a version of it on their server.

I clicked 5 of the links in the lemmydirectory github/wiki list and all of them the last post was 1 year ago. That’s what kinda sucks about all the indexes is that they’re either the extremely popular communities which show up in the communities tab, or extremely dead communities. The goal is to get a list of extremely active smaller communities and without changing Lemmy source code myself, this is the next best thing I could think of to make a list like that.

I hadn’t seen it here, I was scrolling through several pages of new communities and it was pretty much the only new active community.

I was trying to find some new communities to create an index for everyone (!index@lemmy.world) - or rather a community designed to allow people to make suggestions and upvote/downvote the actual “curated” list without moderator involvement.

It is locked for new posts by design, everyone can comment. The idea is to have 5 main posts and a discussion thread. The 5 main posts can act as a user voted community list, and I can change the layout if anyone has suggestions in the discussion thread.

I figured this would actually be a fairly quick way to build a curated list without any moderator involvement - essentially commenters and voters would create the list.

I don’t think there is but at the same time I think an over reliance on the sanctity of neutrality benefits those who lie and misinform (ie current right wing news/media control political machine)

Something tells me they’ll enshitiffy too. It would make me uneasy storing all my passwords with a for profit corp, on their servers.

read the article. The writer isn’t advocating to ban them now, no one is. The title isn’t Why don’t we ban fossil fuels now.

The point of the article is that we can try to innovate alongside fossil fuels with renewables, but petro companies are actually finding new efficiencies and reducing the costs of oil extraction. The IMF predicts $15/barrel oil by 2050. Oil will take another century to go away unless it is “banned”. No one means they’re going to make it illegal, but to effectively put a heavy hand of regulation on industry to cease fossil operations and to switch to renewables.

are they? If you add their utility and total negative externalities they are essentially un-useful. We have the technology now to phase them out over the next 10-20 years. All that is lacking is the political will.
