> the CCP sabotaged and overthrew the Chinese Nationalist Party (now Taiwan) government exactly by exploiting its liberal constitution and free speech

This is some really bad history. The Nationalist Party was no defender of free speech.

The Chinese Civil War began in April 1927, when the Nationalists rounded up and executed thousands of Communists in Shanghai and other major cities.[1] What made this massacre even more shocking was that the Nationalists were allied with the Communists up until the moment they carried out the purge. That event set off the Civil War.

I know someone who accidentally brought a joint into Singapore but wasn't caught. The thresholds seem high enough that there aren't random tourists getting hung over it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misuse_of_Drugs_Act_(Singapore...

I also wonder what would happen if you declare the drugs. Would they assume good intent (because you declared the drugs), and let you surrender them without penalty?
I do apologize for the over reaction :). Engineers like anybody else are going to flock to where the money is (the intent of capitalism). To me it sounds like Engineers aren't wilfully driving away middle class as much as congregating closer to their employers for convenience. No? The same 500k eng would drive up a price no matter where they are located. So instead FB should limit salaries so that these engs cannot inflict this (unwilling) damage?
Of course. 1/3 of the population will get cancer. It affects every person during their lifetime, directly or indirectly.
> I would abolish charitable remainder trusts from the tax code.

They've been reducing the scope of new trusts over time. When I looked into it around 2014, a young person couldn't actually make a lifetime income CRUT because the requirement for 5% distribution, and the low interest rates at the time made the actuarial calculations show a zero balance for the charity at the end, but you need to show at least 10% for the charity at the end. A fixed term just doesn't seem as good.

I ended up just paying federal cap gains and CA income on most of it, but I did donate some of the near $0 basis stock to a DAF, and sold a small portion of the equity after moving to WA. Some of that was QSBS which was nice, but having seen the 2001 stock market, leaving it undiversified to save on taxes didn't seem worth it.

>Singapore is scary because it's a dystopia with many desirable characteristics. It's a dystopia with curb appeal, one that could be sold to people.

that's exactly my impression, too.

My friends tell me how great the food is, and how clean the area is; meanwhile i'm thinking about caning laws and drug executions -- this tells me that Singapore has enough appeal that some folks can sort of breeze past the really grim stuff.

That's a scary trait.
Do you think women would be comfortable contributing to a project called "boobsize", which is part of a larger project called "weboob"? Not to mention "QHandJoob".

It's a horrible idea and if you don't see it that's not my fault.

Not really relevant though, since that's true whether the API is open or not.
We can answer that question by rephrasing, "why haven't HR employees sued their employers, time and time again?" then if it interests you personally pursue precedents.

Or better yet "Why dont employees commit career suicide for relatively minor offences that dont affect them personally and inflict no direct harm?"
This is actually two questions:

Why do we have for-profit vs non-profit healthcare providers in the US and does that affect how they're run? The main difference is that non-profits tend to be more profitable since they don't pay taxes, but otherwise they're pretty much the same including the high bills. They are required provide some threshold of charity care, but the forms you need to fill out differ from provider to provider.

The 2nd question is why aren't there more dual payer-provider systems? There are two big barriers, firstly you need a large amount of capital to start up either a provider or a payer system, to do both you need even more money. Secondly you need expertise in running both a provider and a payer. Over the past decade a number of providers tried adding insurance arms. Many failed. In NY, both Northwell Healthcare and Crystal Run's insurance arms were started and closed (and these are both well-run healthcare systems) [1]. What's been going on recently in healthcare is that insurance companies have been starting joint ventures with providers. Even Kaiser has struggled when expanding in new markets, especially on the east coast (they're mainly on the West Coast where they were started as a way to provide healthcare to workers at Kaiser enterprises)

India's New Education Policy (2020)
Continue to ignore the best investment of the last decade? Good idea.
Deprecated, perhaps, should suitable replacements be standardised. Removed, absolutely not.

It cannot be overstated just how terrible compatibility breaks are. C is nearly 50 years old, and all of its standard functions are thoroughly entrenched, despite their numerous known defects. It took long enough to eliminate gets(), and that was broken from inception.

In almost all cases, removal is not the best solution. Supplementing with a safer or better alternative to supersede the original, by all means. But deliberate breakage causes nothing but pain all around.

In the case of GTK+, it's nearly 25 years old. These is a legacy of thousands of applications, large and small, which have invested hundreds of thousands of developer-hours in it. Obsoleting things might save the GTK+ developers a little extra effort (though I doubt this), but it imposes several orders of magnitude more work upon the worldwise developer base tied to GTK+, which could be avoided entirely without holding back progress.
In some ways I do practice my own medicine and doctors are just QA. I know when I need antibiotics, or I have a strong hunch, I just need them to confirm and write the script (They do this over apps now). My GP wasn't much help with a problem I was having, so I had to track down a specialist who would listen, eventually I was found to be RIGHT, and again just needed the doctor to write the script.

Not saying they don't know more than me about the body, naming its parts and what they do, but I know best when something isn't right and the amount of doctors you have to go through to get them to admit "OK, you feel bad, something is wrong, let's have a look" and actually do something other than go through the motions is astounding.

Not using a proxy by default causes people a lot of pain -- it's the common case to not care that the network is in use if it makes your builds faster and more reliable. If you don't want to accidentally leak things to the network, that's kind of your OS's or IT department's jobs. The tools are available and they will work with things that aren't explicit about needing the network. (What I'm saying is, if this concerns you, Go is one worry of many.)

I have a concrete example about why module caching is good. I have an example repository that shows what happens when upstreams exercise poor release hygiene. Clone github.com/jrockway/evil-module-user. Run "go run main.go". (It's not actually evil, it just prints a message.) You will find that with the Go module proxy turned on, it compiles and prints "This is a good module!". With the proxy turned off, though, you will find that the checksum in go.sum doesn't match for the upstream github.com/jrockway/evil-module, and that evil-module has been silently compromised to become evil. What happened here is that evil-module released v0.0.1 and the module cache cached it. Then someone edited the code, and forced pushed the v0.0.1 tag to the repository, pointing at the commit. When go get reaches out to Github to clone github.com/jrockway/evil-module@v0.0.1, it gets code that doesn't match the checksum in github.com/jrockway/evil-module-user's go.sum, because it's not the v0.0.1 that the developer of github.com/jrockway/evil-module-user used when writing the code.

Obviously this example is intentionally contrived to demonstrate this exact problem. But when I first started using Go modules early on, this happened all the time. Different engineers got different "version 0.0.1" from many repositories, and didn't notice there was a problem until CI. They then loudly complained that go modules suck, when in fact the problem is that upstream authors were very fast and loose about retagging releases. They are sending your release system code that you've never even seen! That's good that the module system detects that. But annoying to fix :) The problem all went away when Google started caching the modules -- you get the old version of the code, but at least everyone gets the same version. (As an author, you can always release v0.0.2 to bust the cache.)

I actually thought until I investigated this in great detail recently that everyone had just embraced immutable version tags and were being smart about releases, as they learned more about Go modules. Turned out I was wrong -- people are as bad as ever, but they don't break your CI build because there is now a centralized cache that gives your workstation, your coworkers, and your CI system the same code. The upstream modules authors aren't doing that. They are force-pushing with abandon.

The Qt libraries are released together as an integrated whole, all using common functionality in QtCore and being designed to work together.

You implied this would be wrong, but it looks exactly right. Nobody is confused about how this works, which is why you response is just puzzling.

There's no question as to what happens here (a) vs (b) false choice. It's printed money that is accounted for as new debt, as per the original assertion.
>The low fertility rate is common amongst developed countries.

The point of the parent comment is that Singapore's fertility rate is markedly lower than other developed countries.[0]

It's beyond the common average.

In any other data set, the extreme outliers would be considered abnormal -- a fertility rate that low is not common among developed countries.

This is my advice: make sure to spend enough time to educate yourself about financial investments. My rule of thumb is to spend one hour per $1,000 you have in assets.

So, with $450k in cash, dedicate 450 hours of the next 1-2 years to build a solid education for yourself. Don't simply follow the specific advice that you feel makes more sense.

If you think this is a lot of time... 104 weeks in 2 years = you need to spend ~4 hours per week to educate yourself. Read 2 hours for 2 evenings per week. That's it.

Too much? Ok, cut it in half. 225 hours in two years. Still a great effort that will pay you back for the rest of your life.

This is above any specific tactical move or decision you can make.

If you are not willing to do this, then accept the fact that whatever decision you will make, you will have a higher chance to regretting it.

"You're full of shit," Knuth responded.

I think it's funny how the author says the people sort of go along with the government especially now just weeks after the recent election where opposition parties took a district, which sure in terms of actual governing power doesn't mean much, but means that the PAP is just starting to feel some pressure from the outside, particularly among younger people and families who opted to vote in the WP in sengkang. It doesn't really seem like sg will move beyond a one-party state soon because of it but people are hoping the government moves in a different direction especially after covid.

WP taking sengkang was big big news in sg, people have to understand the PAP has dominated singapore's government for decades. In terms of actual power it means little but it was a blow to the PAP's soft power as it was a clear sign that people want the government to reorient itself.
VOO and SPY are basically the same thing, SPY is older and structured as a trust, VOO is an ETF. Both track the S&P 500. They'll probably recommend some combination of equity and bonds, probably a split between VOO (slightly lower fees and more efficient payout of dividends -- I do mean slightly) and TLT (20+ year treasuries).

VOO and TLT have limited correlation as treasuries are seen as a safe-haven. We've seen huge spikes in treasury funds recently, since they go up in value when interest rates go down. It's a bit unintuitive, but treasury funds have to cycle through their holdings over time to track the index, so when interest rates on new issues go down, older issues command a premium in the amount of pre-paid interest.
A is super useful because normally if you sold your stock to diversify, you'd need to pay capital gains then. If you do it in a CRUT, you don't have to pay until later.

> You are asking me to educate you when you could just look at current events.

Ok, I see we're going no where and we're at the pointing fingers for asking the 'wrong questions' phase. I'll just ask one simple question then: for being such a strong advocate of this system, which I still refuse to call activism, have you gotten involved in this process and bring about change to your community?

And if so, how? What are the impacts of your involvement, and how have they been shaped and formed from your presence on Social Media?

Because if you saw the video I posted (specifically 2:52) you will see a Black Mother advocating that her actual physical presence in the previously named 'Wall of Moms' protesting against Federal DHS agents and were beaten and gassed as a result [1] is what will ensure that her children or grandchildren may not have to do so in the Future. I'd argue that kind of resolve only comes about when you are amongst like minded individuals, of all walks of Life, in pursuit of a commonly held goal. A keyboard and a screen will never be a replacement for that level of change.

It's not that I dispute that there are forms of 'Hactivism,' DDOS attacks against Megacorps, things like the Panama papers/Blueleaks and Politically aligned trading/shorting comes to mind, but its just that I fail to see how that has anything to do let alone be achieved with what you've described thus far.
