>Instead of working and paying for her own health care

There was no choice. She couldn't afford to pay for healthcare with the new job. What would you have done?
Veggie burgers don't grow on trees - they are highly advanced industrial end products with million-mile supply chains. I don't get why people can't just eat vegetables if they want to be vegetarians. Instead of being unhealthy from eating too many grams of well-understood macronutrients (where dieting is easy, just eat less), we're all going to be unhealthy from eating to many micrograms of beef simulating molecules.

People live where they can get housing.

When the route was finalized a bunch of housing speculators bought up a strip of land all along that corridor and build apartments and townhomes. There's something on the order of a mile of route down near the Central District that is virtually all new construction.

I was curious about the progress of the LR project so I drove the at-grade sections a couple of times during construction and a lot of those properties were for sale/lease about the time they were still stringing wires (and then the city allocated like 8 months for system testing to follow construction prior to launch). So there must have been people buying houses a year before the rail was there.
Can you really blame her when the result of the system is being given these choices:

1) Don't take the pay rise (career stagnation)

2) Keep health care and advance her career (abusing the system, technically, yes)

3) Keep both jobs and advance her career (lose health care)

You don't need to be an expert on game theory to realise what the best decision to make in this situation is. I agree with you in principle that it shouldn't be right to do this, but the system is, well.. shit. What else could she have done?

>The bartender in this case is somewhat abusing the system.

She's choosing to get healthcare, a reasonable choice, 100% legally. The other poster made it clear she could not afford the jump from medicare to the open market.

If you're worried about the policies I suggest you take a closer look as to who wants to limit how those systems work... time and again it's NOT people pushing "socialist policies".

The idiosyncracy is what allows it to poetic, in the fantastic sense. The degree to which it is precise is what matters here, though. Since I don't speak a word of Chinese, so I'm drawn to the characters. This obviously leads pretty much nowhere, of course, but it is an interesting exercise.

your post seems to be entirely negative onwards from that paragraph, although the development of the two characters is pretty straight forward. I didn't find a cursive soho style variant (perhaps because I don't remember the correct name of the style?) but it's notwithstanding, as far as I can tell, it's rather late.

There's still some restrictions:

Using his concept of "first principles" Solar City isn't a long term viable business. Residential solar only makes sense as a sort of a green washing stepping stone to grid solar. I'm glad we did it and got the public excited about green energy, but solar panels should be installed in fields except in very exceptional cases.
Right tool for the job.

Sometimes it absolutely makes sense to have input/calc/output on the same "sheet" or set of "sheets."

Unfortunately, most people don't know how to set up a spreadsheet in a way that makes this work (clearly delineating the input/calc/output sections with data validation, formatting, protection etc).

Of course, if you were to make a solution that "forced" these choices on the user they'll cry about losing their freedom.

So we are stuck with spreadsheets in many cases.

And then there are the cases where using a spreadsheet makes no sense. I'd say it's about 50/50: Half the stuff currently done in spreadsheets makes sense, half of it would be better done elsewhere.

I've managed to move more than half of our previous spreadsheet workload out of spreadsheets and into more appropriate software systems.
"Another important strength of this data is that it is adjusted for purchasing power to measure tangible realities like square feet of living area, foods, smartphones, etc. This removes the confounding effects of factors like inflation and exchange rates. Thus, an apple in one nation is counted the same as an apple in another."

I think the issue is that there seems to be some sort of health coverage cliff, where if you make too much money you aren't covered by government programs, but you still might not be making enough to pay for health coverage yourself.

15 years ago, we just did without health coverage, but we were young and healthy. Not everyone is as blessed.
The texture is nifty, the taste is whatever soup it's in. Its the kind of food with no taste of its own, but it speaks up whatever it touches.
I hope that's not the case. I'm much more concerned that although these might help the environment they might not be great for the health of the people eating them. These "plant-based" foods aren't exactly food that humans or animals have ever eaten in their diet. IMO the better thing is if you want to cut back on meat, eat a salad. These meat replacements aren't anything you can cook up at home so be wary.

> it seems like all the big-box stores and manufactures have abandoned real full-grain leather for synthetics or even cheaper leather alternatives (PU, "top grain," "corrected grain," "genuine," etc).

If we're specifically talking about full-grain leather, I suspect that it's because consumers have this unrealistic ideal of "unmarked"/"mint" leather that's hard to achieve, at low prices, on large pieces of full-grain leather.

Isn't the system broken if getting a raise is actually the opposite? I'm in the same situation in Georgia: We actually have a pretty great program through Medicaid that provides free health insurance for kids 6 and under and a very low rate for kids older than that.

All 3 of my kids are on it. My salary is just under the limit for a household of 5.

I would love to make more money, but it would have to be a raise of about 20% to cover the difference in premium for my kids to be on my private insurance plan. I'm thankful for the program. Without it, I was forking over 20% of my salary to the health insurance company. It seems stupid to allow myself to fall in that margin, no?

If benefits aren't graduated, then you can have a hypothetical situation where you can earn $25,000, and receive $5,000 of benefits, or earn $25,001 and receive $0 of benefits. In this hypothetical situation, every dollar you earn between $25,000 and $30,000 is extra work you have to do that doesn't net you any additional dollars.

There's a whole separate discussion to be had about what taxes should pay for, but I don't think it's abusing the system. I think there's no question the bartender would work full time at a job that paid enough to pay for all of the living expenses and the healthcare, but that's not one of her options. Her options, according to the anecdote, were to work X hours for X money, or to work X + Y hours for X money.
Can someone check me on this? It seems that by equating spending/consumption with wealth, the things that cost us more (healthcare, transport, telecoms, etc) than other nations are being counted as wealth when really they're just overpriced and the profit (generally) goes into someone else's pocket?

At a very basic level, if my quality of life is shitty because I have to work too much and I wind up buying dinner more because I can't afford the time to cook, that's counted as "wealth" in this calculation. I could be misinterpreting it, but I don't see how.
I probably would have made the same choice.

I'm not sure what parallels you're trying to suggest but they're probably not valid ones. 'Meat' being used strictly in reference to animal flesh is a relatively recent development. It's shorthand, in fact, so those truly concerned for linguistic integrity might opt to use the original term, "flesh meat."

> The OECD data is particularly flawed because it is based on “income,” which excludes [...] healthcare provided by Medicaid, free clinics, and the Children’s Health Insurance Program.

Don't many of the other countries offer some kind of "free" medical service for everyone? Should they add this to the average income of those countries?

Anecdote time. Here in Argentina we have:

* Free hospitals and free ambulances for emergencies, and even some standard procedures. The quality and waiting time may vary. It's free for everyone. Should they count this as
"income"?

* Also we get a compulsory 5% discount of the salary for additional healthcare that is controlled by the working union, this includes dental care. The quality and waiting time may vary. I'm not sure if they would count this 5% as income.

* Also you can pay a private medical plan or pay to a medic for a consultation. The quality and waiting time may vary, but it's usually faster and you have more options to pick a good medic hopefully.
In that case, the title is very misleading.

The "study" cited was done by the very website citing it, and designed expressly to refute a NYT article that the author didn't like. I'm not going to defend the NYT as a paragon of level-headed reporting, but when your only source is yourself, that's a red flag. When your website is literally named "Just Facts", as a preempted defense against the narrative-heavy articles it actually contains, that's a red flag.

America's poverty situation and cultural challenges are extremely complex. Nobody chooses to be poor. Plenty of poor people - I'm sure not every single one of them - aren't able to change their situation despite plenty of hustle. Welfare alone isn't the solution. But making reductionist blog posts on the internet in an attempt to justify your own urge to write people off as morally bankrupt solely based on their finances isn't helping anyone at all.
Intel still has the marketshare and last time I checked, AMD instances in AWS have less than half the performance than similarly priced Intel instances.

I agree. But again, I'm not 100% against algorithmic recommendations. Same way I'm not always 100% for human curated recommendations either. Both have pros and cons.

What I liked back in the day was the original netflix recommendations when they first started. From what I understand, they did it where they matched movies you like/dislike compared to other people that roughly liked/disliked the same. Then they recommend movies and guess how you might feel over a movie you haven't seen. Those I have watched, but haven't rated yet, the ratings were pretty close to how I felt about said movie. Then, it always seemed like the end of the list of recommendations was an oddball film. I loved those odd ball movies. Always out of my "known territory" of films. 70% of the time, yea, never ventured to watch. But the 30% that I did end up watching were always worth it and never regretted. That's the system I like. A decent mix of the pros and cons from both worlds.

Performance depends on what toolset you’re using and how large your data set is.

For small JSON documents, like a package.json file, jwalk is around ten times slower on my machine: 0.03 seconds, vs 0.004 seconds for jq.

For larger documents, like the 1.5 MB GitHub API response tree.json [1] in the jwalk corpus, jwalk on mawk takes 0.37 seconds vs jq’s 0.11 seconds, but jwalk uses just 1.18 MB of memory, vs jq’s 5.81 MB.

Other interpreted parsers don’t fare as well: JSON.awk [2], which only runs on gawk, takes 0.8 seconds and 27 MB to parse tree.json; JSON.sh [3] takes 201 (!) seconds and 43 (!) MB, and JSONPath.sh [4] takes 7.4 seconds and uses 1.7 MB.
