> There are other possibilities.

Not in that particular hypothetical. All the things you cite are only relevant in a world where things do change. So if you want to talk about that world, it's pointless to respond to a hypothetical of mine where that kind of change is ruled out to make a particular point.

> Suppose that employers gain bargaining power relative to the workers, but people are really resistant to taking a pay cut. The employers all raise prices instead.

In the real world, where things do change and everyone knows and expects that, how do employers magically "gain bargaining power relative to the workers"? The only way that can happen, if the government is not messing with things (the money supply, but also other things, like the laws and regulations that govern employment), is for some technological change or some exogenous factor to favor employers over workers. And if that happens, and you're a worker, yes, you just got blindsided by change, and if you're an employer, you just got an unearned benefit (assuming you're not the one who actually invented the technological change). Welcome to the real world.

Of course, in the real real world, where the government does mess with things, there are plenty of ways for employers, particularly large corporations that have lots of cash, to gain bargaining power over workers without having to do anything to earn it. And yes, workers would probably be resistant to taking a pay cut, since they know that the bargaining power the employers are trying to use against them was not earned. And yes, employers would probably raise prices instead. And the best way to prevent all that is for the government to stop messing with the economy, so employers can't buy their way out of bad business practices.
Thanks, that clarifies it. I think it indicates a predisposition toward “American cars suck!”, but to each their own.

That's not a straw man argument.

Doxxing might well be used as evidence of a conspiracy to commit sedition, but by distributing the information widely it's strategically superior to holding it in isolation. It's easy to act with impunity against a lone individual, but if some unknown number of people are possession of the same information the marginal benefit of arrest is vastly reduced.
I do not mean "can you do it", I mean can a commerical entity do it or allow you to do it.

The .pdf says specifically:

"Google’s anti-forking agreements, however, have inhibited operating system innovation through forking, ensuring that manufacturers and distributors are beholden to Google’s version of Android. Distributors know that any violation of an anti-forking agreement could mean excommunication from Google’s Android ecosystem, loss of access to Google’s must-have GPS and Google Play, and millions or even billions of dollars in lost revenue sharing. Thus, distributors avoid anything that Google might deem "fragmentation” — a term that Google “purposely leave[s]... very vague” and interprets broadly."
As an aside that conversation on your Github pull request is pretty funny from a sadlol perspective. Thanks for submitting the pull request even when the bot closed the conversation even though you said you submitted the OCA.

This is the automated future that's already here.

I can imagine in the future:

Automated appeals bot: "Thank you for submitting your appeals letter for appealing the Case decision number XYZ. We will need you to submit a signature"

Wrongfully incarcerated person: "OK I will need to find time to get to another computer so I can submit my digital signature"

Automated appeals bot: "Please submit your signature. This is mandatory for all appeals"

Wrongfully incarcerated person: "OK after negotiating with the guards I finally got a computer where I can sign. I've signed my appeal application"

Automated appeals bot: "As we didn't get a signature from you in the set amount of time, your appeals application has been closed. The rest of the sentence will be executed."

Wrongfully incarcerated person is executed.
> why would anyone in their right mind take the job

Nutjobs who want power over others and are willing to imperil themselves to pursue it will continue to become cops. By discouraging people in their right mind from joining the police, the police will become more dangerous. 'All Cops Are Bad' becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

> Land doesn't depreciate, only structures and improvements to the land.

The structures are generally the majority of the value of the property.

> Mortgage interest is not included in the basis of real property or in depreciation. It's just another deductible expense.

Nonetheless it's a major expense and fully deductible. They also get to deduct property maintenance etc.

> Most real estate companies are partnerships or REITs due to special tax provisions. But most of their investors are corporate entities.

A group of ten individuals who get together to buy an apartment complex are not a corporation. Moreover, if the investors are a corporation, it's still one less layer of indirection -- for a corporate investor, if the real estate holding company were an S Corp you would be paying corporate income tax twice.

> Real estate is a cash flow game: real properties are purchased through commercial mortgages, and rental income services the debt.

This is true until the debt is paid, but then isn't that the point? They get to deduct the interest and depreciation and maintenance, and wipe out their rental income.

> Because of this, real estate investment flourishes in low tax years: as a result of depreciation, the cost basis of the real property has been reduced, so the taxable income from the sale has increased.

That would result in real estate sales in low tax years, i.e. willingness to divest rather than willingness to invest. During the high tax years people would want to buy/hold and continue speculating to continue to defer paying the high taxes on the appreciation.

Not my field, but edible gums (guar gum, or xanthan gum for example) is "plastic" (adj.). Gums are used more and more, AFAICT as a consumer; presumably to allow products to be bulked out with air.

Basically take anything homogeneous, add gum, add air, create a foam. Basically like an Aero bar but with way smaller bubbles.

You just cut a quarter (I'm guessing on this figure) off your ice-cream ingredients by weight and you can now advertise "scoops from the freezer"!

So you believe the police should police themselves?

Honestly I'd prefer vigilante justice over that.

Dox the cops, 100%. I'd rather a cop be hurt unfairly in the line of duty than a protester fighting for what he believes in. This country was founded on overthrowing tyrrany. If the cops don't accept the risks of the job then they can quit. Cops need to be held to a higher standard, not lower or even equal. The government (and police) should fear the people, not the other way around.

So no. It is that clean.

_Pro CSS and HTML Design Patterns_ by Bowers is the book that finally made CSS and its relationship to HTML make any sense. The book is well composed, clear, and axiomatic without being parental.

I did not read it. Did they know that they were going to take psychedelics? That may explain the anxiety. The confusion alone may have induced the anxiety. I am not sure, I did not have that[1], but confusion could be low to severe. Low would be equal to a head scratch, nothing much to make out of it, where severe would be delirium. I highly doubt LSD causes delirium. For one, it is not a deliriant, nor it is an anticholinergic agent. Was the anxiety and the confusion present prior to consumption?

[1] I can imagine someone being confused on psychedelics though, especially if it is their first time, but I doubt it would be much of an issue, and could possibly be reduced by reading more about the effects to know what they should expect and so forth prior to consumption.

> I'm talking more about on a practical level in terms of the prices that most people will see/experience when they are going about there daily life.

It's quite true that people are used to seeing a particular price level, and changes in either direction tend to cause them problems, even though, abstractly speaking, decreases in prices should be seen as a good thing.

> I'm talking more about on a practical level in terms of the prices that most people will see/experience when they are going about there daily life. I even cited very real examples of both demand pull and cost push inflation that have nothing to do with the money supply. These as far as I know are all examples acknowledged by economists as causes of inflation.

And this is a misuse of the term "inflation", because "inflation" is supposed to be bad, and so economists are basically trying to argue that the natural ups and downs of business, which are unavoidable in a world where things are constantly changing and nobody has a crystal ball, are bad things that the government needs to intervene to stop. We would all be much better off if economists would stop peddling such nonsense and just frankly admit to us all that, well, the natural ups and downs of business are unavoidable in a world where things are constantly changing and nobody has a crystal ball--not even economists.

> If for example tomorrow there were a super volcano explosion and a catastrophic decline in the world's food supply, we would see a massive spike in food costs

Yes, and what would happen next?

In a sane world, what would happen is that entrepreneurs would start figuring out ways to produce more food, because there is obviously a huge need for that, as shown by the huge price signal in food. Maybe they would build huge greenhouses with solar lamps powered by nuclear electricity. Maybe they would figure out how to harvest algae in quantity to make algaeburgers.

In our actual world, what happens is that governments wring their hands and pontificate and monkey with the economy and make things worse instead of better.
I don't think this is a valid criticism. You seem to be criticizing the idea of a man cheating on his wife, as if the parent comment was endorsing the behavior.

The parent comment was giving an easily-imagined example of how facial recognition can impact an everyday person. You don't have to be in the spotlight to be affected - you could be affected by facial recognition even if you're trying your best to go unseen, which the parent comment does a great example of demonstrating.
Interesting, we have an Elasticsearch cluster of around 300 i3s (and maybe soon some i3ens) I think mostly because of the NVMe storage. But yeah there's not much compute to go with all that disk space.

This is actually a lot (most?) of our ES workload, so that's a really interesting detail.
It's a fair point. I don't actually have an issue with the webcam so much as the monitoring software they installed—it's a giant black box with admin permissions that I don't understand at all. (And, using a virtual machine was explicitly not allowed, for understandable reasons.)

I assume it hasn't left behind a giant security hole or explicit keylogger—and I did make a time machine backup before the test which I restored afterwards...

Its so hard to buy a small car these days in the US. The offerings are pretty poor. Mitsubishi Mirage, Fiat 500, Chevy Spark. And then if you want AWD there are basically no options (I drive a discontinued Suzuki SX4 because everything else is bigger). Not to mention the lack of practical small city cars but everything else keeps getting bigger. The small Rav4 is now much larger and there isn't a little crossover replacing it.
Good catch, I made a careless mistake. Thanks.

This wasn't meant to be a scientific publishing so no I'm not gonna back this up with any source. Do your own research or simply skip the part of my comment if you think its wrong.

And to all the people commenting below. It doesn't even matter if EVs are better. Even if they have half the emission to a normal car. Reusing a existing car is almost certainly still better. Also no one really know what the lifespan of any modern car is. If you assume cars follow the trend of anything else then EVs will probably be obsolete after 5 years by the time we have 50% EVs on the road. Building a car EV or not that last 10, 15 even 20 years outperforms in emission. Also my main point was that humanity should reduce cars that aren't moving that would reduce pointless emission.

* set generated pw length beyond 128 back

* create groups of any unicode characters by myself and specifically black or whitelist them for the pw generation,

* manage all keyboard shortcuts, both the local and global ones,

* auto-type with a global shortcut any chosen entry individually—but username, password, and otp in particular—so that I don't have to fix the seq and delays every time the website changes or I'm somewhere with slower internet.

The process would be:
either press a global shortcut to find an entry or pre-select it in the app, then use other global shortcuts to auto-type the attributes individually

* copy the password from the editing menu without revealing it,

* show the attributes in place of the notes

Given that an open heart surgery is a surgery, and not a published statistical hypothesis, I don't find it to be within the scope of this discussion.

You highlight an important point: in a big project, where a lot is going on, your thing might be going on without you realizing too. If you start the work without checking past attempts and current claims, you risk wasting your effort.

In smaller projects, the chance of making an obsolete contribution is lower due to things moving slower in general.

On the flip side, there are people who announce their intention and never follow up on the promise, while potential new contributors may think the problem is getting solved. As the maintainer, I'd rather have them announce nothing.

Every airline has mask policies in place so natural experiments comparing masked and unmasked flights as the control group are impossible. Deliberately running unmasked flights as a control group is ethically fraught. A statistically rigorous analysis can't be done in this case. This is the best we can get.

Requiring masks on flights has very little downside or cost, and potentially big upside.

Interesting idea.

If it were not deductible for anybody, fewer people would have health insurance. If you're in that pool, it's good for you, because it would probably be cheaper. But fewer people would be insured, so it's overall bad, right?

Am I'm missing some part of your argument?

The idea of making it universally deductible/subsidized for individuals seems to be the path that we're on right now.

Case 1: If you purchase health insurance on the exchange, and are very poor, you can get fully-subsidized plans. (Not to mention if you qualify for medicare).

Case 2: The most plausible proposals of "Medicare for All" are basically expanding the pool of people who qualify for zero-premium medicare advantage plans. This keeps insurance individualized and operated by private companies to maintain quality improvements driven by capitalistic-competition, although the government is the ultimate payer.

Case 3: the government (yes, even the current administration) has taken several steps to encourage employers to subsidize the costs of employees purchasing insurance individually, rather than as a group [see https://www.takecommandhealth.com/ichra-guide].
