I think this is done on purpose but not as an immigration move. Its a play against universities, a political enemy of Trump.

At the same time this is happening, they are waiving the degree requirement for federal employment: a nice little monopoly rent universities had, as well as the immigration one. Americans might not appreciate this but not only colleges subsist on international students: they subsist on them requiring degrees for visas and to get preferential visa treatment. It's a path to residency.

I would have much preferred that there was a semblance of Rule of Law, and it would be more like discounting college degrees entirely for immigration and remove special visa privileges for students, but this gov is stupidly against immigration.
Hey there. Not sure if you will see this since I'm late to the conversation, but here's a suggestion.

Just do what you want.

If you don't want to do anything, keep trying/looking for things. (Don't force yourself to 'enjoy' something. If you don't want to keep doing it after just a little while, it's not the solution, so stop.)

For me, it was video games. I loathed people who play video games. But for me, it was a starting point to start enjoying life again.

You have to start simple. More complex values come later, from having a simple foundation of simple values.

I don't want to trivialize your problems, but I just though I would share this since "Do what you want" is not advice I really ever see, so maybe you haven't tried it yet.

It just goes back to considering who your target audience is in order to market your blog. There is no reason why niche blogs should lean on SEO/target ads, when they could more effectively just directly advertise in like minded niche placements and capture their desired base. If you have a website full of videos about car repair, buy ad space on vwvortex forums. You can't ever possibly know all the disparate secondary interests of your target audience (although FANGs are trying to model this), so stick with what you know, your niche.

TD is not far right. 4chan is "far right". 8chan is "far right". But there are regular far left threads on chans advocating for all kinds of radicalism (including violence) as well as making legitimate talking points - no one gets banned, even though the sites primarily lean right.

The only "side" interested in actual free speech currently is the "far right", unlike left leaning forums and media outlets which explicitly censor one particular point of view, regardless of whether it is backed by legitimate science which should be open to discussion.

Censorship has undeniably become a leftist problem, if you insist on reducing the high dimensional space of political leanings to a single myopic dimension. Unbelievable that in 2020 people are shamed for going to the last places on the internet where discourse is unrestricted.

The spectrum also had contention for video memory access; The memory map was:

16K->32K: "Slower" RAM (ULA/Video has preference so may delay CPU)

32K->64K: "Faster" RAM (Same RAM, but nothing other than CPU accesses it)
I used this a while back to record, and the free version has some major limitations (low res, wrong aspect ratio, can only use selfie cam).

International students should be allowed to stay as long as they're full-time, and are accepted into an accredited university with the intention of attending in person.

I guess the gray area here is that colleges, many of them being for-profit entities, are facing big drops in enrollment and can essentially sell US citizenship in exchange for tuition payments. Once an online course system is set up, the only cost is generating new user credentials.
Everyone wants a youtube replacement, but I'd rather see more options for niche content. It might not be doable for most people to create something big enough to give something the size of youtube a run for their money, but someone could make a site that is basically a private bit torrent tracker that people could upload their own videos to. They could court advertisers, or offer a small subscription to be able to log in for more than free content. Then you'd just need a way of finding sites like this.

> Modern conservatives aren't responsible for cancel culture and elected Trump precisely as a counter-reaction to cancel culture.

I'd like to see some data behind this assertion. Even what proportion of Trump voters used "anti cancel culture" as even ONE of, if not the main, reason why. Vs. "not hillary", or he was the name on the Republican side of the ballot, or "he says what he thinks" or "the wall"
Can you point to an example of where an idea has become a crime? Specifically, an idea or action that has not already been criminalized? I am not in full support of this, but all I see are people losing their jobs in private companies for at best being stupid and at worst bring harmful to their co-workers and creating a toxic oppressive atmosphere at work.

Lets inspect these ideas that are being deemed unsafe and why they are and then make a judgement.

Every time I dig into this subject it just turns out to be a bunch of a privilaged people bemoaning an inability to keep spouting their ALREADY DISPROVEN ideas like they are some novel creation.
So because it was a smaller number, they’re less important? All I’m asking (and it applies to everyone of any political ideology) is where is the outrage when your favored party either allows or is responsible outright for deaths? Also, unintentional deaths are in the same ballpark as coronavirus deaths, why don’t we criminalize vehicles, bubble wrap our homes, or avoid anything that could possibly harm us? It’s a fair question in my mind.
Not in the scenario I described. You implemented a solution using lambda and api gateway. Hundreds of microservices later you may realise you could save considerable money going unmanaged. By that time your lock in is costing you an unhealthy amount of money and there is no easy roadmap to mitigate it.

Again, everything must be planned beforehand. Savings could also be marginal, but it could also be significant. In big enterprises, where billing is north of a couple of millions of dollars, every percentile you can save is justifiable.

Everyone here seems to be unaware of article 7, section 3:

> The most important thing to realize is how success will be measured...

I think this could be applicable in general sense too, so that your team understands the value system that you establish. People are smart, professionals are even smarter, so they figure out the incentive system quickly. Placing a right emphasis and staying consistent helps to communicate this.

Another thing that adds to the notion of unblocking is to establish a culture of "a long enough before calling for a backup", that is to try your best to crack a problem by yourself, but have a way to recognize a being stuck and allow to call for a help with no shame or sense of failure. In my view, this has both a culture and a protocol aspects.
Please make the ENTER key work. This is nice and light. A more compact display without HRs would be even better--more like HN!
No, they're not really loans, they are basically free money.

They only have to be paid back if you end up firing the workers you were supposed to keep employed with the loan. If they stay employed then your "loan" is fully forgiven.

I think Discord's Achilles' heel for enterprise is its UI unfortunately.

There's no way that my company would adopt a platform so "fun" in the way Discord tries to be. Animated characters, a logo which looks like a gamepad, etc...

It sucks, because I use Slack for work and mostly Discord for personal use (mostly dev communities for different companies), and Discord is far and away a better experience. If Discord provided a "cleaned-up" offering for orgs like mine (finance), I think it would be an instant hit.
Have you been paying attention to what BLM has been saying?

What do you expect these people to feel when they are being accused openly of white supremacy and Nazism, simply for not going along with leftist politics? That's a unilateral carte blanche to be violent. Punching Nazis is great but it's a serious problem when you are far too loose with labels, as we've been watching. Silence is violence, right?

I assure you that the millions of non-white immigrants who [reluctantly] lean towards Trump are not white supremacists - but all it takes is a single accusation to literally ruin a life. When that is the status quo, it isn't surprising to hear people say that they are voting right like "their life depends on it" because it increasingly seems to.

Regardless of the justification, you cannot deny that BLM are presently the aggressors, openly rallying to explicitly subvert US institutions. Not everyone has to agree with the culmination of the long march through the institutions.

> I see that as a plainly xenophobic motivation.

Why is that? The pandemic drags on. Half of the country remains under severe restrictions. Schools and summer camps are still mostly none-existent. Why would a country continue with exemptions when similar privileges are not granted by many originating countries?

> Students ... paying through their teeth ...

Do you have any sources for those students typically paying through their teeth?

While other countries close their borders to visa holders due to the pandemic, we don't do that in most cases. Only if your particular institution doesn't need you to be here. This rule is not void of fairness. It's compromising a difficult situation.

I'm not naïve about the bigger picture, which certainly doesn't make this any easier. We have a gravy train setup for higher education, with students paying full tuition, often displacing the local population. We have higher ed with signaling power to schools across the country. We have political disagreements with the biggest origin country. And we have a pandemic.

If there is just one student saved from coming here, that would've caused an elementary school to go into a month long covid19 shutdown in September, then this by-the-book enforcement is worth it to me.
I would never assume a University would adjust their attendance plans for a semester just for foreign students alone. That wouldn't be very rational, or would it be?

> "there ARE safe and unsafe ideas"

A nit to pick: The consequences of ideas can be safe and unsafe. The words "The police are racist" can be questioned, examined, and judged accordingly. The _result_ of the ideas and how you process them are the issue here. Gasoline is perfectly safe if left alone. But thrown in a live fire it will cause major damage.

Discarding ideas simply because others might abuse them isn't the right way to go about this.

> "someone who lived this story should tell this story"

I feel that there is a danger to this argument. It is in the same vein as what I have encountered before: a refusal to hold any sort of meaningful conversation due to an intersectional party who claims that their point is "more valid" because of lived-experience. And they would not allow anyone else to say anything because they were not <insert intersectional crossroads here>.

This promotion, if left unchecked, can mean that the person lives within an echo chamber and can be very unhealthy. They are unwilling to have other people influence them. It can be very detrimental.

> Do you support massively more funding for education?

We homeschool, so I'm not really a proponent of state-run education. However, as a parent just talking to our children and fostering good relationships with everyone around us should be a priority. I'm for the idea that this concept starts within the home and then extends out. Kids mirror what they see at home.

Does it count if only the edge is in the picture? What if it's almost completely out of shot? Let's also slow down the loading of the images to a crawl for no reason and sometimes even if you manage to wait for all of them to show up and select them all correctly 20 times in a row we just say you fail anyway and send you back to the beginning.

There's no point in creating the line if you make the line endless. I'm not surprised Oracle of all places is doing what you've described, either.
As a Swede that did not agree with the strategy at the time (it was hugely risky), given what we know now, I'm starting to think it was the right decisions (for the wrong reasons). The reason the economy is in trouble has more to do with that the rest of the word shut down, it being a highly export dependent economy. Sweden did not shut down, practically nobody wears a mask (still), social distancing is minimal (crammed subways, buses and beaches), schools have remained open, yet there has not been a single death in the worst hit area of Stockholm for the past 5 days. Again, I think given the uncertainty and lack of evidence in March, not shutting down was an extremely stupid risk, and Tegnell and crew have shown to been wrong at practically every turn, but at this point you have to look at the evidence and reassess. It would seem Stockholm has reached the point of significant herd immunity, which is probably true for other hard hit areas like NYC. Less hit areas will probably have second waves, and unless a vaccine is here soon, my guess is most of the world will go through the same thing eventually.
Ah, but when you use a large cloud, you're not just paying for the cost of the server. You're paying for access to a large high performance network and storage system that is extremely close to your server. Replicating those properties will cost you far more (well, it depends on your specific needs) than the cloud provider.
If we're going down the route of regulation, and browser control, would it be a step too far to require standardised metadata in a cookie?

That way, each cookie could describe itself as login, tracking, optional functionality etc.

You can then penalise on cookies that purposefully violate this, and allow the user to centrally opt in or out of each type.
Dammit, just play the right notes
> Religious organizations. It's one thing if something like a local YMCA gets funds, but a church outright getting funds without proving it is going to public services (why don't we just have better public services?) is not proper. Churches already don't pay taxes.

They still have to pay their employees, which is the point of the PPP. Those employees are paid from the funds that come in via donations, which are likely down during the pandemic (especially when many couldn't hold services). Put more simply, their income is down the same way my employer's is, as a result of the pandemic.

> a church outright getting funds without proving it is going to public services

The requirements of the PPP require that at least 60% must go to salaries.

> Churches already don't pay taxes.

Their employees do.

That's $50k/year to put Harvard on your resume, and the privileges that follow.

Love or hate the top Ivies, they open up doors (or at least fast-track you to the door) that remain closed for a lot of graduates.

If your only goal in life is to maximize your chances at some cookie-cutter prestigious professional job / career, then $200k isn't too bad. The ROI is going to blow most everything else out of the water, as far as education goes.

> $50,000 a year for a Harvard undergraduate course exclusive of accommodation and food

Please don’t throw this number out without understanding how it really works.

55% of Harvard undergrads get some sort of financial aid. Much of this aid is in the form of grants that cover tuition. One simple example — if a student’s family makes $65k or less a year, tuition is free. Above $65k, there is a sliding scale, and financial aid officers have quite a bit of latitude to work with people with unusual financial situations.

To be fair, I think families making $250k-$350k in high cost of living areas might get the short end of the stick in this system, but even they have some flexibility if they work with the financial aid department.
