The problem is, if you're going to fall back on that perspective, Real Life (TM) has all those things too, and it will continue to do so, for essentially free. There will be clusters of that sort of thing somewhere, just as there are "retirement communities" and "bedroom communities" and such. Universities certainly aren't bringing anywhere near enough value for their marginal improvement on those matters vs. what would exist without them to be worth decades of crushing debt.

If you surrender on what the Universities have to offer intellectually, then you're putting them in a position where they're going to be competing with generalized social forces that can create similar clusters of demographically-concentrated appeal without having to pay administrators and deans and speech police and all that stuff, and the universities will never be able to win carrying around such baggage.

"And I don't think that atmosphere or energy can be easily recreated virtually."

It can't be recreated virtually. But it can be recreated without a "University" attached to it.

If what the unis were offering was, you know, proportional to the gain, maybe 1/5th to 1/10th the cost they are now, then maybe it would still be worth it. But paying gold-plated prices for "social experiences marginally better than what you could put together yourself if they weren't there" is not a sustainable plan, or an adequate defense for their practices.

Viva la disaggregation.

> Cops can hold you for some amount of time, generally around 24 hours without cause.

This isn't totally true, at least not for the casual use of "cause". Cops must have "reasonable suspicion"[1][2] to detain, during that detainment they can discover more information which creates "probable cause", and probable cause allows them to arrest.

My guess is they were arrested for what is commonly called "resisting arrest"[3]. The way resisting arrest laws are unfortunately written, obstructing an officer in their duty is enough, they don't have to actually be resisting arrest. Basically of the cops told the CNN crew to get off the street, and the crew didn't, that would be "resisting arrest".

Minnesota's law:

> obstructs, resists, or interferes with a peace officer while the officer is engaged in the performance of official duties

Note that they were arrested, you can hear an officer say they are under arrest, but they haven't been charged or convicted. I doubt they will be charged. It is up to the county district attorney to press charges (the same DA who isn't pressing charges against the officer who killed George Floyd).

The press in the US are usually given a lot of freedom, and are allowed to be in places that the police don't allow regular citizens (riots areas, wildfire areas, etc.).

Police carry guns. Legal is not relevant.
The issue is that the rules are being enforced selectively. Just this week Twitter fact checked Trump's opinion on mail voter fraud by linking to other experts' opinions. It seems more like a move to influence the election rather than enforcing the rules.

This is actually a better argument for independent status than de jure in my mind, because countries essentially "opt-in" and go out of their way to make special rules for dealing with Taiwan. There's no default recognition by virtue of UN admission and having diplomatic relations or some other standard international measure.

I'd say that puts it above many countries that might have wide de jure recognition, but limited, ineffective, or largely chilled diplomatic relations, like North Korea.
> This is simply not true. Police may not keep you detained if they do not have probable cause or reasonable suspicion that you have committed a crime. However, in real life, they do this sometimes, even though it's been ruled unconstitutional.

They don't have to charge you, so they don't have to prove it.

> They don't suffer consequences enough, though, and depend on citizens not knowing that what the police are doing is wrong. It's also difficult due to the "thin blue line" BS where cops are elevated above the rest of society.

The police themselves hardly ever face consequences; the settlements come from the taxpayer.

Indeed, this is related to our (experimental) addition of a performance rating for the hardware environment we're testing on. This is rendered as the big number on the composite scores page. Theoretically, our benchmarks covering a diverse spectrum of technologies could be useful for measuring hardware and network performance. But a full run of all test implementations takes 111 hours, and I suspect few people who want to measure hardware performance would be willing to wait that long. So we selected a subset to use for hardware measurement, hence the icon you see.

Your opinion is reasonable from a contractual standpoint, but, contracts aren’t all that matters.

Universities have a variety of tools they use to lock-in students. If the universities gave students the ability to take the semester off and get a refund before it started your argument would be strengthened. Most universities did not offer that option (if any).

When you build an org with a massive cost structure, you cannot survive big risks. We are seeing it playout in a number of markets, but education is about to be changed forever
The person you are replying to just pointed out the race of relevant parties.

Come again? First, the post doesn't rise to the level of "accusation." In fact, it explicitly leaves open the possibility that it's a coincidence.

Second, should we just not mention statistically relevant variables? Not report on facts? Do you doubt that race played a factor in this specific case, or that it is often relevant?

> I hear reports about still getting regular use several years later

Yes, a percentage of the population is no doubt into it. My point is that it's honestly surprising at this point, given how good the tech truly is, how uncompelling the overall experience is. The vast majority of people just don't feel the need to come back.

> VR being dead tech

The tech is great and getting better all the time. But that's not enough for it to be transformative the way smartphones were.

And yes, I know, there's no requirement for AR or VR to be the next smartphone. But we do at some point need another paradigm shift in hardware to enable another wave of software innovation. This I think is why there is such animosity between VR proponents and skeptics: one wants to play some sweet games and the other wants a massive world-changing wave to ride.
They probably wanted it internally to track where their billboards were, and it was easy enough to make it public at that point.

What source claims the other crew to be only a block away?
Either of them. CNN essentially controls the story. The cops could have thought they could have quietly gotten rid a potential source of trouble.
> it’s not reasonable to demand universities operate at a loss to provide the remote education at a rate less than it costs them to operate

it's not reasonable to expect students to pay for the costs of operating a university when all they receive is a glorified khan academy experience.
That would be a pretty good idea. Just need to come up with some way to limit access to only the own citizens for sensitive information. Maybe if only certain trusted people had access, and they would do it as their job, and then they would report their findings, and investigate wrongdoings they found, and then we would give them money to be able to read those reports about government wrongdoings... hm, how could we call those people?
So what's wrong with hitting spam?

> In my opinion, it’s not reasonable to demand universities operate at a loss to provide the remote education at a rate less than it costs them to operate (which I suspect may be happening already in some cases).

I think it depends on the endowment. If the University in fact has a lot of money, then I think they _should_ be operating at a loss while taking advantage of their cushion. But yeah for the majority of universities not in that situation I do agree with you.

On some level the people involved here were civil, but it seems like a pretty dire problem when the police want to get rid of journalists.

It would be great if the police could figure out how to serve the public in a way where they could be proud of their work and want the journalists to help the world see the good work they're doing.
Permitting petty crime would be a better solution than many alternatives. One such worse solution would be, for example, proactive, racially and economically discriminatory policing, ruining fragile, impoverished, limited-opportunity lives and breeding distrust, while simultaneously ignoring white-collar crime in rich neighborhoods.
Anecdata from my little corner. My 'non-profit' university's president is at 800k, his VP is 500k and multiple other admin officials in similar range. It is hard not to have a bitter taste as they just offered the students $500 grant application for their COVID19 trouble.

Three reasons.

One, the electoral college itself is tied to the political power of many low population states, so any serious adjustment to this process is a pretty dangerous subject for some states, making any country wide changes very hard to start.

Two, the shift to direct election of the president (minus the electoral college) was not a planned change. If one day in the 19th century everyone decided to change, then scrapping the EC would've made sense. Instead it has been a slow process happening over at least a century to arrive at our modern system, hence the presence of vestigial artifacts like the electors themselves.

Three, the process of how electors are selected is delegated to the states, which is part of why it took so long. So for example Pennsylvania and Maryland went to a system by which one party won the entire state at once in 1789, while it took South Carolina until 1860 to abandon per district results. Maine never adopted the winner takes all approach, and assigns two votes by district and two by the popular vote tally.
In this case, in the video, Jimenez asks the police whether they'd like him to move somewhere else, they don't respond, and then they arrest him, so it is quite hard to justify the claim that they were resisting arrest even on that definition.
How does nakedness justify escalating the situation to voilence? "The law is the law" is just an excuse.

When people talk about systemic racism they're talking about how the system operates as a whole. As I've commented elsewhere, people need to educate themselves about systemic racism in this country.

"So You Want to Talk about Race" by Ijeoma Oluo or "Me and White Supremacy" by Layla Saad are good places to start.

Intel Frost Canyon NUC 10 Review (With Intel Core I7-10710U Comet Lake)
What you're basically saying is, "sure, this and various experiences show that this kind of policing might make things worse, but hey, at least they have good intentions". Well, plenty of terrible things have been done with good intentions.

This is one of the things I really dislike about a lot of politics, I see it all too often. There's a problem, so we need to do something in the name of fixing it - doesn't matter if it helps or not, we just have to be able to say we're doing something. But maybe we should step back and look at whether there are better ways to deal with the problems.
What could get the cost down even lower?
Nope, not what I was saying at all. I was making a statement about personal risk tolerance. A contract is more risky than FTE because your risk of the company being done with you before you are done with the company is higher. If you are unemployed and need to get back to work then you'd usually take what you can get. If you are choosing between opportunities or leaving a FTE job then be aware of the risk, even if the company is Google.

The neutral companies, such as utilities, online hosting or financial providers serve nearly everyone with little objections - they defer to the law rather than any internal policies. The more selective companies such as newspapers and TV channels are expected to restrict who can get published.

By representing itself both as an open platform and as a company with progressive values, Twitter has put itself into an awkward in-between spot and is bound to create such controversies.
I did some development on AIX machines in the early 2000's... AIX 4.3, I think. Our customer was an all IBM shop and they felt Linux was too immature, so all their critical apps ran on AIX, with full high availability (HACMP, anyone?) and a shared storage array. Coming from mainly a Solaris and Linux background, "smit" actually made the machines a joy to administer.
Yup, that's the "magic" part.
Hello, I'm a founder of HashiCorp and I'd like to explain this.

First, this document only applies to enterprise evaluation software. This doesn't apply to our OSS software and this shouldn't be linked anywhere near our OSS except in the context of signing up for an enterprise eval.

Most importantly: why is this here? This is NOT a political statement. This is a legal requirement. The encryption we use in Vault is subject to Chinese export control laws and it is illegal for us (by Chinese law) to sell in China.

To be able to sell Vault within China we'd have to restrict the encryption that could be used within Vault to government-acceptable versions.

We don't do this, therefore it is illegal for us to sell in China. We have to include this line in our enterprise terms.

Georgia tech offers a fantastic online CS masters program for $6.6k (1/6th of the cost of on campus degree).

They actually do have to articulate their PC. If they don't, again, you can sue for civil rights violations. Not saying it doesn't happen, it does, but it's not correct to say they're "allowed to".
So your degree is free unless other people are willing to pay you to have it? In which case it costs you money? You already did society a favor by studying something other people care about instead of studying something only you care for. Why not just raise income taxes? Serves the same purpose without making people salty about college major choice. You already pay an effective 50% tax rate between income, sales, gas, registration, property taxes, etc. when you’re in that “sweet” spot of earning a great wage but not being wealthy. No one ever gets rich off paychecks.

While true that younger people are less at risk than older people, that risk is non-zero and significant.

You also ignore that students don't isolate themselves within the walls of the college. They are a part of that community, using dining and retail facilities, traveling home, visiting nearby cities, etc. That puts their parents and families at risk, locals at risk, etc.

It's been my default search engine for years now and it seems to be fine for me, even with highly-technical searches. I'm resorting to !g less and less, and most of the time I don't get better results from that, either.
I think it's definitely worth asking, but IMHO it's unlikely that crimes such as these would result in less reporting:

> “Major crime complaints,” such as murder, rape, robbery and felony assault.
> ...
> The scientists found that civilian complaints of major crimes dropped by about 3% to 6% during the slowdown.

>“The cessation of proactive policing corresponds roughly to the relative decline in crime that earlier research attributed to the effects of mass incarceration,” the authors noted.

The article is careful to include the researcher's caveats; ant further study would have a better chance to address the question of a decline in major crime reporting rate. However if somebody tried to report a major assault and was turned away from reporting, I'd hope that the story would get reported on. And if people were assaulted but more fearful to go to the Police than they were before, hopefully there would also be reports. But with the police harassing individuals less, I would think people would be no less likely to go in.

And of course murders are pretty much impossible to not report. But in the time period there may not have been enough to notice a statistically significant decline.
Actually they had been filming continuously, and they had been previously told by police to stand where they were standing, and they had received no new instructions from the police since then, and there was an all-white group of reporters standing in a similar position on the other side of the police who did not get arrested. I understand the desire to come up with an explanation for what happened, I really do, but the fact of the matter is that police arrested these reporters for no reason.
If taken at face value, it suggests a protective effect of low insulin resistance as measured by the TyG marker. Everything else is interpretations and chains of logical reasoning.

Neither of you are particularly wrong necessarily, but a third option is that someone could be sedentary and eating carbs every day and have low TyG. It's common to state that "activity XYZ will provide action-at-a-distance medical benefit ABC" because stating accurately what's going on takes more words that sound less certain:

"Paleo and keto diets may weaken Covid-19 by lowering insulin resistance"

"A healthy lifestyle may weaken Covid-19 by lowering insulin resistance"

But it's really worth saying it like this, even though few do. (And yes, these aren't 'maybe' enough, but they're an improvement.)
