> And the key bindings are lousy.

The key bindings are incredibly configurable and recent versions have added a really nice GUI for it (over just manually editing the JSON configs).

https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/keybindings

The configuration of key bindings has been put through the ringer by the vscodevim extension, which has long been one of the "first customers" of the key binding configurations. If Vim can bind a key to it, for the most part so can you. There are very few functions in the application that you can't key bind if you wish.

Furthermore, extensions can contribute key maps and there are key map extensions based on a number of other editors already as extensions. A link right below the key binding configuration takes you to a recommended extension list.

It is interesting that VSCode defaults to a relatively small key map, encouraging you to explore commands through the command palette instead, but VSCode seems to make up for that by giving you a lot of power to customize as you see fit (and extension capabilities to share those customizations with others).

In my church experience part of the annual general meeting isn't imitating a corporation meeting - it _is_ a corporation meeting. This is because the church has wisely put its earthly assets (mostly the building and operating money) under a corporation.

My experience comes from presbyterian churches which have some highly analogous features to corporations deriving from theology and predating by thousands of years the modern corporation. Thus there is a annual "Congregation and Corporation meeting", which is really two meetings for convenience held at the same time but which are formally started and ended separately. Participation is almost identical save that the "Congregation" can have communicant members that are minors and therefore not legally voting members of the earthly corporation.
I have no real interest in ever trying to live in one, but as an outside observer, I find the question of turning one of these into a cheap habitat to be a fascinating question. Kinda like the whole Tiny House thing ("How are they going to fit a bed, dining room, computer desk and composting toilet in the same 6x5x6 space?"), except the shell of it is cheap enough that when one falls off of a container ship no one cares and now you have the question losing x inches of wall to insulation. It's a total ship-in-a-bottle kind of thing.

So yeah, it's the ultra esoteric functional programming language of housing solutions. Not as useful in the real world as you'd like and it may only have worth as an academic question, but it gets the creative juices flowing.

Online courses are great, but they don't replace everything.

The MOOCs don't work well because they are 100% virtual. What they need is a bit of in-person, human touch. I'd like to see a system where online courses are being supervised by "educational coaches" who are not necessarily experts in the field, but experts in motivation and maximizing results.

Imagine a remote location, where there are no universities. A number of people could take completely different online courses there, monitored by the same coach. The role of the coach is mostly to witness the effort of the student (great for motivation) and counsel the student as to how to apply his effort most efficiently. The coach could help organize local study groups as well, if there are enough students. Technical questions could be handled by online forums and the MOOC staff. The training of the MOOC counselors could be a MOOC course itself, to spread the system organically.

The amount of money the university got from those grants would be lower, though, because they'd have to pay the grant writers. That sounds bad. What if instead the professors just applied to larger grants and worked overtime? That's what they do right now, and it works.
Unions are great at establishing entrenched interests.

If you need to qualify to join a union, or to do a specific job in a union, the qualifications will be owned by the companies which are politically powerful.

Imagine being unable to qualify as a C++ programmer unless and until you've qualified on Microsoft Windows and Visual C++.

Imagine being unable to qualify as a Perl programmer at all, because Perl isn't one of the technologies owned by a major corporation.

And, of course, doing freelance work, or contributing to Open Source, makes you a scab, stealing work from Poor, Honest Union Workers.

This is true for occupations like sales where the litmus test is professionalism and the ability to stick to goals. However, you will lock yourself out of occupations with degree requirements for credentialing and those with domain knowledge you gain through school like Chemistry.

Most of my Liberal Arts degree equipped friends are in sales while dabbling in their art on the side. A few of them sell a book or script every 3-5 years. The rest of them went back to school for a Law Degree or an unrelated Masters degree.

War? Please describe a scenario where Seoul doesn't get obliterated in the first 30 minutes of fireworks starting.

If the DPRK doesn't achieve victory within 72 hours then yes of course they will be flattened, but nonetheless a DPRK victory is within the realm of possibility. Seoul may be reduced to a smoking heap, 20M dead and 10M having emigrated, and it will be a Pyrrhic victory, but it could be a victory nonetheless.
My guess would be trade imbalance. If you can't find something to put in it, re-using the container means paying to ship it empty.

Basic income without universal housing, healthcare and education is more-or-less a poverty sentence.
This may be unpopular, but:

1. She has more than $200K in student loan debt which is her doing. I've met many who do not want to take responsibility for their student loans - they'll prefer to go to schools whose tuition is over $40K/yr over schools that are under $10K/yr. And then they'll insist on going for several years to a grad school without funding (hence more loans). I always tell people: If you cannot get funding for grad school (or at least after the first year of grad school), then get out or change schools/departments.

2. When I was in grad school, no matter how much people gave advice, most grad students refuse to consider their ability to earn money based on the degree they are pursuing. The few wiser ones in liberal arts would work towards gaining marketing skills (often in software, but not necessarily) and did fine. Same goes even for tech fields - consider if what you're doing a PhD in will get you a job.

I do agree there is a problem with exploiting adjuncts, but adjuncts also need to own their station in life. Over 15 years ago, when I was in school, I knew adjuncts who were struggling as much as is shown in the article (having to travel to different towns to teach in multiple schools to eke by), so this has been a known issue.

Honestly I don't get this sentiment. NK isn't some rationalistic actor. The NK problem can never ever be solved by diplomatic resolve. This goes beyond mere saving face, or diplomacy. This is simply about maintaining and expanding power. That is sometimes you need to be confrontational. Sometimes you need to stop being Chamberlain, and start being Churchill. Preferably before it's too late.

What else is their development of nuclear arms about? NK is a signatory of the NPT. They broke their promise. They've broken their promise multiple times. What they're looking for isn't a resolution to their situation, if anything they want to prolong it as long as possible. What they actually want is to win, and emerge "victorious" in the face of US "oppression".

Personally I think while China's interests are in maintaining a peaceful region, we must be wary of the relationship between NK and China. As there is a possibility of another game being played. Perhaps China wants to annex NK.

There's nothing wrong with getting an English degree. Practically any uneducated person would benefit greatly from four years of college level writing courses no matter the level of "usefulness". The problem is the overarching mentality of the culture which says "you have X degree, so you must now try to use it for X". If you judge English degrees on the same level of a job training course it doesn't make sense. They have different purposes entirely. The point of a liberal arts education is to sharpen the mind and create better decision makers and thinkers.

Substitute basic income with whatever form of safety net you prefer. My point is that the government shouldn't be intervening specially on behalf of adjunct professors, because we have an easier time relating to folks with college degrees than to ones working retail or food service.

It would cause mass casualties but by no means would the metropolis be 'obliterated'. There certainly wouldn't be 20 million dead unless everyone within the Greater Seoul area rushed north and threw themselves into the beaten-zone.

Assuming, of course, that the artillery troops follow their orders to fire.

We should just call it "libel".

The credit issuer fails to adequately verify the identity of someone applying for credit (the thief) and lets them take out a loan in your name. The thief defaults on the loan. The credit issuer commits libel by reporting that you were the thief to the credit reporting agencies.

There are two crimes contained in every case of "identity theft". Everyday consumers are affected by libel. Credit issuers are affected by fraud (enabled by their own negligence).
I fear i must invoke Poe here...
Let's take a simple example. I loan you $10k to buy a truck. Not too long after you get it, a meteorite hits you and your truck. Disintegrating both completely. You have no money in the bank, insurance, or anything for me to get my $10k back.

The truck (or student loans) was still paid for. I thought I'd get my money back, but I didn't and that is a risk in loaning money. I can write that off as a loss in my taxes, and recuperate some of the losses, but definitely not all.

So in our student loan case somebody still has to pay off that debt. Either it is by a massive loss to the companies that loaned the money (let's ignore the possibility of them being in the green) or the federal government purchases the loans and writes them off. And if the loan companies are forced to write them off then that is written off as an expense and can greatly change how their taxes are calculated (see Trump). Which the "pays for" is that purchase or tax deduction/rebate. And now the entire tax paying population pays for (which tbh I'm personally okay with). But it still gets paid by somebody. Somebody "loses" (maybe not in the long run, but in our short game).
I'm sure they also have the same business issue that a lot of these personal services firms do. If I come across a particularly good handyman (or whatever) when using the service, you can be sure that we'll trade cards and I'll probably be calling him directly for any relevant task in the future.
Universities are like dictatorships where only staff has a vote on if the top executives should stay in their job. Since professors are tenured and are therefore not beholden to anyone, the top executives are highly incentivised to increase the pool of voters that they have leverage over in order to create a stable coalition. This pool is administrative staff.

This problem is further aggravated by the fact that students often choose Universities based upon reputation and are therefore rather insensitive to price increases, so extra spend on administrative staff is easy to find. In addition to this the government gives away student loans that matches rising tuition costs and because you can't get rid of student loans in bankruptcy it is an attractive asset class even for private lenders.
Nope. You're going to have to elaborate on why there's an asymmetry, not just restate that there is with big words and an unrelated analogy hoping we'll believe it.

I want to comment that academics provide such an incredible amount to the world we live in.

In a time of bullshit thought leaders and companies like Equifax who will tell you obvious lies, the academic discipline with its rigor, criticalness, and policing against self-promotion is a kind of last-bastion for intellect in the West. And even that is sort of cracking.

BTW one country has already tried the “you can only get useful degrees that have immediately available needs route”. It was the Soviet Union, in which everyone was an engineer, to such absurd levels Gorbachev got his degree in “Steel Metallurgy of Ball Bearings”.

> No one is telling the students that they're spending 4-12 years getting an education which is worth less than what they're paying for it.

I think that some fault lies with unrealistic expectations. Every liberal arts graduate student knows that there are only enough positions for 1 in 10 of their cohort, but each firmly believes that they will be in that 10%. Worse, many who are talented enough to actually be in that 10% self-sabotage by being unwilling to move to locations they perceive as less than desirable.
If you have a pool of applicants for a job, all with no relevant experience, it's an easy filter. You filter out all the people who haven't proven they can do something they agreed to do for 3/4 years.

We're not talking about the "plumbers", we're talking about the "bosses", and I'd suggest to you it's a bit of a stretch to call an institution where corporations have a very strong influence on the selection of bosses as something that is truly democratic. Representative or direct democracy is required to counteract the influence of the rich and powerful.

Not only is it not common knowledge, there are still some who vehemently deny it is true, insisting that the Copenhagen interpretation or Bohmiam mechanics are still tenable, and that the "measurement problem" is still a problem. To this day I regularly fool even card-carrying physicists with the EPRG puzzle.

> it sound like relativity is considered simple

Conceptually, it is simple, but even relativity is often presented incorrectly. It is not that the speed of light is the universal speed limit, it is that it is the universal reference. Everything is always moving at the speed of light through space-time. The only thing that changes is what component of that velocity is moving through space and what component is moving through time.

Please elaborate. If you are trying to forge your own path, it will definitionally be more stressful than being an employee. As a founder, you are responsible for all of the jobs you've created, and for those employees' livelihoods. Furthermore, there is quite literally nobody else to blame but yourself, unlike in the case of an employee or executive. That is stressful.
