> It is interesting to note that, a few years ago, an employer received positive notices for elevating all of his employees to a higher salary of $70,000. The effect was basically to bring several lower paid employees up to the level of those who were better compensated. Rather than being an unqualified success, the reform brought dissension.

Had the OP's author actually read the piece he linked to showing the move was a success with everyone except critics with a row to hoe the OP would make more sense.

Evolution of fossil fuel compared to consumption.
without formulating a thesis, it takes a long time for natural processes to yield "fossil fuel" in terms of millions of years if dating by isotopic abundance is not fudged. We are burning/using fossil fuels and releasing what was apparently captured over millions of years, over a span of [a couple hundred?] years. there is a decompression problem here, we dont have the slack space in our ecosphere to allow this highly concentrated resource to be opened up full bore like we have done.

>If the rent is too high why not just give people money and let them spend it on rent?

This doesn't work because the money will go straight to landlords. Rent prices simply increase across the board. There's even an argument that indirect improvements, like building parks and improving infrastructure, generally does not benefit renters since it drives rental prices up. Landlords reap the majority of the benefit.

Building more would definitely help, but that is directly against the interest of existing landlords. They will fight it hard since it will generally erode their views and decrease their property value.

We really need a solution that incentivizes higher density where there is high demand.

The shock was profound to say the least and according to some literature seems to be crossing into accidentally deadly territory in unfortunate circumstances. Fortunately no injuries/deaths happened.

Htop Explained Visually (2017)
Often times, what one thinks another should do may not be immediately obvious or even remotely close to on another's radar. The beautiful (and sometimes ugly) reality in America is anyone can start a business, and pay some employees. Within that range, you have infinite samples on the "this is how a well oiled machine should run" to "I am doing this for the first time, trying to do the best I can and I hired a few people I know"

Should you be required to know all of these things beforehand before starting a business? Who am I to judge. Ultimately these types of comments display the pure position and perspective of privilege that is so typical on this forum. I am not saying that is a bad thing, we typically talk about the elite companies, and what types of business practices should be followed, just know that this isn't anywhere near close to the majority of American businesses.

I am not one to participate in the current "woke" culture, but

> It takes almost no financial discipline to set aside enough for a couple of months worth of salaries.

This statement drips of pure privilege to me. A couple of months worth of salaries? Are you kidding? Sometimes you have to worry about paying rent on time! We all aren't bootstrapped, VC-backed unicorns. Most of the businesses out there earn every single dollar and have to make tough decisions such as whether or not to pay your employees on time or call the Hobart technician to repair the dishwasher so you can stay open. Oh by the way, the Hobart guy said you need to replace it and it will cost you 10,000 dollars. I think most small business owners are fortunate to have even a couple of weeks set aside.
I'll use a bit of Haskell in my response, since that's what I'm most comfortable with and what we actually use for our work. Hopefully that's okay.

We can define a data type of expressions in our language, with addition, multiplication, etc.

data Expr = Addition Expr Expr | Multiplication Expr Expr | ...

Then we need the type of an interpreter which consumes program inputs and produces an output. I'll leave this abstract for now.

data Interpreter = ...

By map, we just mean that we can write a Haskell function with this type

interpret :: Expr -> Interpreter
interpret (Addition a b) = (+) <$> interpret a <*> interpret b
interpret (Multiplication a b) = (*) <$> interpret a <*> interpret b

Why does the "j" have a larger dot than the "i"? Is there any reason for this? It just looks like an error to me.
Thank you for the response. I wasn't trying to suggest that it was a requirement, simply that it seemed odd that there would be no fallback whatsoever. I guess I'm behind the times.
Before I submit a bug report-- is there a good reason that the zero isn't dotted in this font?

For example, executive order numbers have both "O" and "0" appearing in them. But I'm sure there are stronger examples in various gov't depts. where those characters can occur in sequence and create errors. Not to mention any code snippets that already appear in government web sites.

I suppose the extra ink could be a concern, but we should be moving away from paper printouts anyway. And as we do that, extinguishing a small dot in this great nation's zeros would be an important symbolic first step in combating climate change.
This page looks like you could delete most of the style stuff...
Huh? No one disputes that the countries handle things differently. But if you want to say that one way of handling things is better, and the only evidence you give are better outcomes, then inputs ought to be similar. But if one country has 30 times or 3 times the input (corresponding to oil or most natural resources, respectively), then this is a very poor comparison unless you do a lot more work to correct for it.
Plenty of websites out there being kept up by volunteers without hardware access, the original owner having died or otherwise gone MIA. It's not always possible to add https, particularly when the site owner died 10 years ago and someone has an 'agreement' with the hosting provider to keep a website up as a memorial. No, I don't have any specific examples right now, but anecdotally I occasionally come across a website that's been in such a read-only form for as long as a decade due to family members being willing to continue paying the $15/year hosting fee, but not having the technical knowledge, passwords, or interest to fix problems. Sometimes there's evidence of a partial upgrade (the search engine stopped working due to a php upgrade), or a forum that has been converted to a static site entirely (the login buttons don't work either). In any of these cases, getting LE working is almost certainly more trouble than it's worth for whoever is currently paying the fees.
wow i didn't even notice the 500 on clothes a month. holy crap
Of course you call emergency services.

In a country with 300 million privately owned firearms, if the police receive a call ostensibly from a hostage-taker threatening to murder several people, they're going to respond in a much different manner than if you call for medical assistance.

This is why SWATing is so pernicious. We let basically anyone buy seriously dangerous weapons up to and including assault/battle rifles, let all of our police match firepower, and then dramatically underfund mental health services such that murder and hostage-taking is a regular occurrence. Just a stellar combination for internet 'pranksters' to exploit.

> often difficult to develop a data science tool covering many use-cases

yes ; yes. if you find the right niche a tool can be very valuable, and it should be possible to estimate or compare the value provided by the tool to the existing process without using the tool.

I worked in a domain where software was used to automate or optimise business decisions as part of a large, expensive construction project. Some components of the work that my colleagues & I did could arguably be framed as data-science (more accurately operations research), although a lot of the work was just software development. Occasionally there were small consulting projects for clients where the output of the project was a report summarising some modelling/simulation with recommendations.

The bulk of the work was building software tools used by the client to automate and optimise business decisions. The value of such tools could be evaluated in a few of obvious ways: How much labour cost did the tool save the client by automating away previously manual processes? How much value did the tool provide the client by making better business decisions than the previous process? How much incidental value did the tool provide by forcing standarisation of previously ad-hoc processes? (e.g. capturing data required as inputs, data quality...) How much did the client pay for the tool? (the above points would inform this one!)

The tools I worked on were used as part of the planning / design process. When they were effective, these tools directly identified designs that would be cheaper to construct than designs produced by the previous process. The value of these construction savings could be estimated and was much larger than the value from automating previous manual work. In at least one case, prior to a sale to a very major client, there was a benchmark & comparison done between the client's existing process and the new process using the proposed tool as part of the business case to fund the sale of the product & related integration work.

> Having money isn't everything. Not having money, is.

Apparently what this pithy aphorism means, for those like me that have never heard before, is that[1] when you have money it is easy to say that there is more life than just being wealthy, and that when you have no money your financial situation negatively affects your entire life.

> Same with food

If you have no food to eat it will not be a matter of it affecting your life, as there won't be one to live in the first place (beyond the number of days of living off body fat). This is what the word "need" refers to.

> and sex.

If you are saying that not engaging in sexual intercourse with one's fellow human beings negatively affects one's entire life (as if it is a fact, and not one's own feeling), and as sex is not a need like food, it can be safely said that your pithy aphorisms are of no use whatsoever to anyone looking to critically ascertain the facts of the matter instead of blindly following whatever is the latest belief being promulgated by the masses.

"Russia invades neighbors" is worse, as they intend to occupy and annex. America invades with some idiot idea of democracy or projecting hard power, only to leave.

Russia invaded far off lands when they had the capacity, don't think they wouldn't do it again if their economy and population weren't shrinking.
Thank you, this is one point people miss. The other is the value of the real estate and it's increase. Sure, you might not get that 36,000 a year but that is completely dwarfed by a 23% increase in the median home price, bringing it to $1.4 million[1]. You could rent for 10 years or just buy and sell it off a year or 2 later.

So, while it is true that not renting would mean not getting that $3000 a month, it really comes out to chump change when you consider how the price of the property has rapidly risen.

>Just how is this a good advice if it's a bad thing if most men do it?

Because if you don't your outcome is worse than it otherwise would be. It's like weight cutting in boxing. Ultimately it serves no purpose. Both fighters do it so neither gets an advantage. Neither fighter can stop doing it, however, since it would give an advantage to the other fighter.

>A better advice would be for men to understand this tendency of women, what it means to be attractive to women and make an informed decision if they want to play the game of becoming more attractive to women.

These aren't mutually exclusive options. Making yourself more attractive will, of course, increase your chances for success.
