>As a visa holder you should generally respect the laws of your host country.

... and terms of your visa.

>To the extent that the laws of your host allow you to participate in political action you should feel entirely free to.

You are taking a risk that a citizen of that country does not. If a citizen gets arrested as part of riot/protest control, they'll get released in a short amount of time. You, as a visa-holder, may get your visa revoked, lose your job and get deported. You may have issues with visa renewal or reentry (because typically visa terms allow for arbitrary revocation and lots of discretion is given to border agents and issuing officer). But it's your life. Take any risk you want.

> US murder and incarceration rates are more or less solely caused by the war on drugs

That's what you would expect if drug trade is the most profitable crime, no matter if drugs are the reason these people went into crime in the first place. If you can't afford your expected lifestyle within the system you go outside the system. Once there you choose the crime with the highest profit per risk factor.

There's plenty of countries that penalize drug ownership that have order of magnitude less crime than USA.
One argument against sortition is that you might occasionally get someone who was hopelessly unsuited to the job, whereas, proponents of conventional elections might argue - their system would obviously never do that. But now we know they're wrong, so that's one more reason to consider sortition.

I don't really understand who's buying the two-port 13" MBP with its 8th generation CPU over the MBA or the four-port MBP, both with 10th gen CPUs. Now I really don't understand it. Maybe Apple is trying to guide people toward one of those other two models. You're at $1500 by the time you've upgrade it to 16GB. The four-port which comes with 16GB starts at $1800, but gets you a current generation CPU which is faster (2.0 Ghz vs 1.4 Ghz), has double the CPU, double the Thunderbolt ports, and double the memory. Seems like a no-brainer for $300 more.

I personally just purchased a maxed-out MBA. I went with the MBA because I prefer the form-factor and don't want the touch bar. If I'd been willing to accept those, I would've gone with the four-port MBP. At no point did the two-port MBP make any sense to me.

Edit: it's $200 to upgrade the RAM in the MBA as well. I wonder why the MBP was only $100 in the first place.
>Apple probably have to place custom order to the memory chip manufacturers for a low-yield production

> "we had a great team and incompetent senior management."

Whether or not it's true, I think you'll find this sentiment from any engineering level alum from a big company that died.
surely, you meant WWII?
Don't they offer to remove ads or something like that?
Great. Since the whole country is not in lockdown, let's examine a region which has been highly impacted:

* Select "Excess deaths with and without COVID-19" for the dashboard

* Enter "New York City" as the location (New York state as a whole shows a similar trend)

New York state was locked down March 20th. Notice the marked increase in non-COVID-19 related deaths starting March 21st, increasing steadily into April (almost 200% higher than predicted number of deaths). The tooltips also say that this data is still incomplete, so these numbers could climb.

Now maybe it's unrelated, or maybe it's COVID-19 related that was incorrectly assigned, but you seem fairly confident that it's unrelated to the other factors the OP mentioned. I don't see how you can reach that conclusion given the data available at this time.
> society [...] depend on having babies,

But civilisation doesn’t depend on maximising births, and actually probably would benefit from more resource intensive to produce artists, musicians, dancers, etc - is the other side of that argument.
It is very very important, but I used "polished" and "as polished as". "Not polished" doesn't mean it's not stable, or everything breaks. It means there are several small annoyances or some things that could be improved. And it is highly polished compared with how I remember it. It's just not on par with what macOS was a few years ago, which I definitely think it's not nowadays.

Also, I only recommend that people TRY it, not make the jump.
Indeed. It's pretty funny when people pick their sides based on what companies are involved. They basically loosely implemented AppGet's API. AppGet, being permissively-licensed and open source, could've simply been forked or what-have-you anyways. There's nothing Keivan was actually holding back they had to interview him to get.

That being said, I think it's likely a loss for Microsoft: Keivan obviously had thoughts they considered of value, and he probably would've been a solid hire. The PR hit from this probably costs them more than a year's salary for an engineer, so they probably should've considered the risk here. The fact that Microsoft engaged in a "dick move" is obvious, and for what? Something that feels like a tack-on side project by a couple of Microsoft engineers, that'll probably never graduate to mainstream adoption?

CA’s booms and busts now, for the state and city governments, is almost purely centered around Prop 13. The NIMBYs won. Unless you have owned a home for decades and have insanely low property taxes it’s extremely hard to weather these cycles. NIMBYs gain from the booms, and relax during the busts.

And as a result of Prop 13 the state relies heavily on income taxes, when people leave or lose their jobs there goes the state income.
Given that the person who wrote the apology has apologized for the apology not being upto the mark, I think we can say that the apology missed the mark.

There is absolutely nothing Free Software has been an obligatory enabler for SAAS.

Actually if you admit the existence of SAAS and regardless of its own issues, it using Free Software is still strictly better than it using only proprietary software.

And in regard to owning your own data thanks to proprietary software on your own devices, in practice this is just plainly false now: look at Windows 10 vs most Linux distro.
> San Fran was simply unpleasant - the people were rude (young and old) and everything cost too much. The taxes were insane too.

Tangential, but I feel the same way about NYC. I have lived in SF for ~3 years and have now been in NYC for ~4 years. I guess cities, that are HCOL, tend to exacerbate the (low and high income) class disparities, and maybe also heighten residents' stress and reduce their patience levels?

considering the comparison to a well known and broad job description -construction worker, the list being used for this top 10 number does not have a large number of occupations. and considering that you clearly undersdand that, your comment is pushing a false narrative using misinformation. and considering that this forum is not a place for calling people losers and purposely dense clowns, i won't.
You are correct, but I believe my fundamental conclusion is also correct. Simply put there are a few reasons you can’t fire someone and almost infinite number of reasons you can. California has more protections than others but the balance of power still overwhelmingly stays with the employer.
I've always thought that sortition should play a greater role in democratic systems, as a counterbalance to the flaws of voting, namely: the ability of money and power to influence elections and the advantage that charismatic people have over uncharismatic ones. Technology plays a pretty big historic role here, too: there are definitely American presidents from before radio/television that wouldn't have become presidents if they ran today. E.g. some of the Founding Fathers were fantastic writers but awful public speakers.

Edit: adding some more details:

Yet for every Washington or Adams, there is a Thomas Jefferson — a president who was such a bad public speaker that he declined to deliver a State of the Union address to Congress, instead beginning a century-long tradition of sending congressional members a letter...

https://www.pbs.org/speak/seatosea/standardamerican/presiden...
A great advantage of sortition is that it removes the need for campaigning and political parties, so the lobbyists have nothing to grasp on. Another one is that it is scalable - if you have 10 separate issues, you can draw 10 groups to work on them.

That is not the purpose of the AGPL. If you were trying to use the AGPL as some kind of trojan horse to get access to someone's deployment code, then it should be no surprise that it didn't work. Perhaps your codebase is just hard to contribute to? Is it possible your company has not given enough incentive towards outside developers for them to contribute back? It doesn't even have to be money, it starts with making some mutually beneficial promises and then sticking to them.

In general I think it is wrong to try and characterize Amazon's developers as being some kind of strange beasts who have somehow figured out how to use open source better than everyone else. They are the same as every other corporate developer in that they'll always take the easiest and cheapest path to success.
Under EU law, 20% of a country territorial water have to be use as a "fish recovery area", essentially no-fish zone to help the stocks regenerate.

This worked well in the North Sea, but it seems that those zone are not respected at all by English Fishermen in the English Channel (i only have anecdata from partisan fishermen so take this with a grain of salt).

The Bretons think the french coastal police only prohibit French nationnals to fish in protected waters and do nothing about English fishermen, and this is causing ressentment. Most fishes they catch in the english channel are not consummed by the UK but sold to French consummers anyway, and this is not really helping (also the support for free market is dropping real fast around here).

The opinion in britanny right now about fish is "please no deal!" Most of them don't care if the access to UK waters is cut: they know that if the English channel fisheries can't sell in France, they will soon start to sell access to those waters.

Tbh, i'm starting to think this is the best long-term solution. Either we lose something big and we will be renegotiating terms shortly after, causing short-term losses but long-term gains, or nothing of importance really happens economically and everyone is happy.
Yes, of course. The point is that Keynesian macro and appropriate tax policies are a much better policy response than austerity can ever be.

The UK has the advantage of printing its own currency so it can engage in monetary financing if the situation warrants it; an option not available to Euro economies.
