One would do well to remember that cause has to come before effect. The Norwegian criminal policy is decades older than that fund.

One would also do well to keep in mind that the main effect of that fund is to block the state from spending money. Taxes are diverted to the fund from the budget where it could be spent on prisons or other things.
I use a 43-inch 4K TV as a monitor located about 30 inches from my eyes. I've been using such for at least a decade, and would never return to a tiny porthole facing work of interest (such as a laptop, which is comically unsuited to serious, prolonged use).

I do use prescription glasses ground for that working distance and strongly recommend that (prescription lenses).

I recently (four weeks ago) had to replace the monitor/TV and spent more than a short while choosing comfortable typeface, font size, and RGB/BGR pixel ordering.

As some others have mentioned, if one's eyes are strained, corrections are warranted. I do not deliberately practice frequent distance gazing, but I suspect I do so unconsciously.

I think the fact that you characterize this as "far-left" is problematic. Authoritarianism and censorship are independent of left or right leaning politics, and have existed on all sides of the political spectrum in the past. See censorship in Stalin's communism (left) vs. censorship in Nazi Germany (right).
> If running a red light or stop sign is a $200 ticket in a car, it should be a $200 ticket on a bike.

Curiously; in France many red-lights are excepted for bicycles. There's often a special, permanent "orange" signal that applies to bikes, thus they are explicitly encouraged to run the red light. If I understand well, this was in agreement with drivers, who were annoyed to wait for all the bikes to start slowly after the light turns green.

I think that if you ever try to use a bicycle in transit (I mean, seriously over a few days, not for 5 minutes), you will see that it is essentially impossible to do correctly. Sometimes you have to turn left across many lanes of fast cars, what are you supposed to do? Inevitably you take the least dangerous path.
what's your career now (if you have one), what are trying to do, just curious.

... to pass a cyclist, one often is forced to come within a few feet of them to accomplish the maneuver.

Somehow I'm reading "within a few feet" as "six inches". IME bicycles are much narrower than automobiles. If it's safe to pass an automobile, it's safe to pass a cyclist while leaving at least eight feet.

If it's not safe to pass, don't pass.

That's not what phase 1 is for.

Phase 1 is essentially to test "will this drug cause terrible harm to people who receive it in a reasonably short time frame?" In terms of dosage guidelines, phase 1 studies often don't have variable dosing, or if they do, not an awful lot - because the question around optimal dosing is the target of phase 2.

(Sometimes you can roll 2 and 3 up together, for instance, if the difference in dosing is in duration of therapy rather than an actual difference in drug administered per unit time.)

Phase 1 usually has terribly small samples, because it's only looking for terribly large effects. Seeing homogeneity there, of any stripe, is neither unexpected nor problematic.

(A lot of the vaccine studies rolled up phase 1/2 together because we already have a pretty good understanding of what these delivery mechanisms do to people, and so while you'd be cautious in administering to the initial study participants, it really didn't merit a "test it on five people and hold your breath" approach.)
It does strike me as thinly veiled virtue signaling. It can be summarized as:

It's not that web sites are inherently bad; it's that the browser is able to protect the user in ways websites cannot. Brave has local access to information about you; websites do not. Even if you were to give over all of your data to a website (why would you?), you now have to worry about that site sharing it, losing it, selling it, etc. With Brave, the data is on your device; cursory network scans confirm that it doesn't flow outward either (see https://www.zdnet.com/article/brave-deemed-most-private-brow...). It's much better to do this as a feature locally than as a third-party service remotely.
Is the far left really pushing for a centralized web ? Would you mind backing this statement up ?

My company was the target of a rather interesting office 365 hack. I would not be surprised if the hackers gained access to the Treasury the same way.

A link sent from an existing trusted sender was sent to one of our employees from a vendor’s procurement director, inviting us to an RFP. The link took the user to a “notion.io” page. I do not recall the contents of the page (may have been a login spoof, but it didnt matter).

The hackers then appeared to hijack the “remember me” login session from our employees Chrome.app. Within a few hours, online webmail logins (edit sessions not logins) were occurring all over the world for this user’s mailbox. The hackers then spread the “virus” by emailing this employee’s known contacts the same spoof.

I don’t think Microsoft ever fixed the bug, as far as I know. Our method to protect ourselves was to upgrade to IP restricted logins on a higher level of Microsoft 365, and disable the “remember me for 30 days” feature. We’re debating turning off access to web-mail entirely because it does scare me that I think its still possible to do.

Anyone else experience this?

No, the article recounts the base sending out a live warning to base personnel.

If you've sent an alert to the soldiers on the base, you've decided the warning is genuine, so the conclusion must be that they don't inform the surrounding areas as soon as they've accepted a warning as accurate.
I remember when everything was on network drives, and no-one understood the folders other people had created, so they created their own. So you end up with three 'IT Projects' folders, in three different places. And worse, multiple copies of the same document in different places, all slightly different.

Sharepoint should have been able to fix all that, but somehow it just made it the same, but slower. Even after 20 years, I never know where the f__k I am in sharepoint, or when someone sends me a link to a sharepoint doc, I can open the doc, but I don't know where the f__k the document _is_. I dont know quite why sharepoint is so confusing, I think its because it tries hard to pretend to be something other than the document store that it should so obviously be. Just when I get the hang of it, they redesign it all, and add some new front end like Delve.

If I join a project, something that rings alarm bells is if the Project Manager has created sixty empty folders in Sharepoint arranged into a three level hierarchy with different folders for every stage and stream of the project. Most of the time, most of the folders remain empty for the duration.

So yep I really like this Johnny.Decimal idea, simple and workable.
Cars took over the bicycle infrastructure; if we had dedicated bike infrastructure as we do for cars I think you'd see things a lot better. Sure there are self-righteous creeps in every subculture, but a lot of the things you see are consequences of adapting to a dangerous environment maladapted for bike use.

Bike infrastructure in a lot of European cities demonstrates that it can work. American drivers are much more polite than European ones yet kill more cyclists per capita.

> that's exactly what the EITC does

The EITC is for individuals that have low incomes, AFAIK. Can you elaborate on how the EITC would increase the amount of US manufacturing?

> It's also the de facto result when a company takes a tax loss (e.g. from deducting more expenses than it had in revenue, common for startups) and can then sell the tax loss to another company to offset its tax burden.

Can the tax loss be sold separate from the legal entity itself?

> As opposed to Tesla's plant at Niagara Falls, or the various privately-owned rail networks in the world, or SpaceX?

Are you saying that without the TCJA, none of these would have been built?

> But that's actually more expensive, and less productive, than just making it more cost effective to manufacture things domestically than somewhere else

Making it "more cost effective" through tax cuts helps existing businesses, not starting new ones.

If a business needs $10 million in capital to buy the machinery necessary to make widget X, and has to compete with an existing factory that produces equivalent widgets and has paid off their existing machinery, how can they compete? The existing business already has relationships with suppliers, customers, and distributors, and if the new entrant looks like it will be trouble, they can just cut their profit margin such that the new entrant will be struggling to cover the extra expenses associated with building all of those relationships while paying off the loans to acquire the machinery.

Heck, both of those businesses could reduce their profit margins to zero, with both having an effective tax rate of zero, and only the established one would be able to effectively compete due to lower costs.

> That's the problem. It doesn't matter how willing one side is to negotiate if Democrats are too busy fabricating lies about Russia collusion to come to the table.

Or one could say that the Republicans are unwilling to play ball as well (eg. over COVID-19 related stimulus). The fact is, whether one party is at fault over the other, Americans and US businesses are paying the cost of the lack of bipartisan initiatives to improve the state of US manufacturing.
Its also been around for 3000 years and is far past its price discovery phase. Aside from that you dont hold gold in perpetuity, its for certain several year stretches and certain decades. I hold none just because I think btc challenges it (which is also the view of JP Morgan's latest opinion so in decent company).

Second comment here: Long cyclical runs can be timed. For instance golds decade long rip prior to the decline was due to etf introductions.

And no I dont think you do “got it”. You dont hold anything in existence forever. If youre not comfortable making shifts every few years (or whatever) and having to actually do some thinking from time to time then investing isnt for you.
This argument is similar to Karl Popper's Paradox of Tolerance [1], where authoritarians can use freedoms given to them by a society to remove those freedoms from others.

However, the statement insisting that Bernie Sanders will somehow turn the USA into Venezuela sounds more like dogmatic rhetoric more than something that is based on concrete fact.

Similar policies to those proposed in America by progressive Democrats, which the American Republican party frequently refers to as being socialist, have been implemented in some countries (see the Nordic Model [2]) without it turning into a disaster.

Any number of casual indie mobile games would fit the bill. Pick a platform and come up with some simple game mechanic and backstory that seems like it would be fun. Just don't expect to make a lot of money or get only positive support, doing it for fun/learning and anything else is bonus is a good mindset.

I think the good thing about a mobile game is you can tell your friends (or anyone you meet) to find the game in the store and try it, right then and there. People often have bits of free time on their phone (when bored with the usual). On a computer, they'll be somewhere with many more obligations or distractions.
Well, it has to be used consensually otherwise it's just pure torture.
My big problem with sharrows is that they are typically placed on streets that are adjacent to the main road and cars frequently use as a means to get around the traffic of the main road. So they typically blow through stop signs and such. Now it's been quite some time that I've biked in the Bay but when I did I remember in Berkeley they solved this by putting blocks at intersections so cars had to stay on the main road.

But honestly where I feel safest, as both a driver and a cyclist, is in protected bike lanes. I'm much more scared of someone dooring me than I typically am of a car hitting me. I've adopted strategies to avoid moving vehicles but parked ones I'm typically forced to stay pretty close to and my avoidance options are usually 1) swerve into traffic and hope that the car next to me is paying attention and also avoids or 2) hope my brakes work super well and I can do a turn slide and hit the car door sideways. But natural reaction it to go with option 1 and 2 still sucks.

The issue is that cyclists aren't motor vehicles or pedestrians but we typically classify them as both (hell, one of the most recent Simpsons made this joke). If we're going to be encouraging cycling, and I think we should, we really need to rethink this classification conundrum.
What do you mean by "own the distribution"? Brave passes the content through a privacy-respecting CDN. It goes to great lengths to knowing nothing about who is accessing what. If you don't mind sharing, please elaborate on your concerns.
This makes it seem like it would be some kind of exception. Bikes can ALWAYS use the full lane!
Yes! And there is also a significant number of people that do not know what populations they may or may not actually belong to!
Well, I didn't disagree with you. I was just hoping you had a solution. I don't have one.

For me I keep hoping people will have an epiphany: "Could my contempt for half of the country be at least part of the problem?"

It's always "other group" who is instigating Bad, and "our group" who is fighting for Good. To many it's a literal bare-knuckled fight against "evil", not realizing or not caring that their own tactics and outlook are themselves destabilizing. The media is just feeding into it. I don't see any easy way out.
I agree.

Though my dad thinks you only have to slow for pedestrians where there is a posted sign reminding you of that fact. So you can't win.

("Can't win" doesn't mean you shouldn't try.)

The debate has been rehashed to death at this point.

By now, it seems that most of the original arguments about Bitcoin becoming the currency of the future didn’t pan out. In fact, very few people seem eager to spend Bitcoin because everyone wants it as a speculative investment vehicle. The narrative about what Bitcoin will be used for continues to wander, but for whatever reason the Bitcoin crowd doesn’t want to admit that it holds a unique place as a speculative investment and trading vehicle that has one foot outside of regulatory boundaries, making it inherently attractive to people hoping for abnormal returns.

This is also why you see big banks taking on numerically large positions that are nevertheless a very small portion of their overall portfolios: It’s a weird investment that might produce interesting returns, or it might not. Unfortunately, this news usually gets spun into hot takes that banks secretly predict Bitcoin is the future currency, which leads to more hype and more investment. This effectively makes large Bitcoin investments a self-fulfilling prophecy, as long as the banks manage to get out before the next big down cycle.
This is about as rigorous as the questions by those wondering how Facebook could possibly be a monopoly when other websites exist (exaggerating only slightly). Do you know what "discourse" is? It's "how people talk about something," which is what propaganda is designed and intended to manipulate. "Pie tastes good" is not that.

Long term we know that opening the Chinese market would probably be the most healthy thing for global commerce.

The problem is that currency markets are ruthless, and past crises with other currencies shown that it is unclear what kind of opening can and cannot be clamped down on. Opening up something innocuous may end up inadvertently creating a large crack. And the Chinese market is so large that even a trickle in releasing Chinese capital controls can be a deluge in other smaller markets.

On the one hand China is not shy about reestablishing capital controls if need be, on the other hand using that as a tool makes CNY undesirable as a reserve currency.
In practice, it really never happens that we make the law more permissive through a deliberative process and then start doing the thing. We relax the law because we found that people didn't really respect it and enforcement was unpopular.

I suspect there is a fair bit of confirmation bias in what you are noticing. I say this as a biker that also notices these things.

I also notice them from drivers all the time, as well. Is it stupid when a cyclist runs a stop sign? Yes. The same as a car doing it. And people are notorious for not stopping well if they are going to take a right. Such that we design for the behavior with round abouts. Car or bike.

Meanwhile, both times I've been hit, the car turned right not checking that there was a biker in the bike lane right next to them.

Is there data that suggests how to fix intersections?

I (used to :/) bike to work daily and was mostly scared of the intersections where the right lane crosses the shoulder/bike-lane to give drivers a quick right turn. A co-worker almost died on the scariest one after getting hit from behind, but was lucky enough to roll next to the car and only lose the bike.

Other risky ones are where the driver that's merging in won't expect a bike and suddenly blocks the bike lane to get a better view of the traffic. This generally happens on the long streets with fast traffic 45m/h+ as few bikers take the risk making it more likely that drivers "forget" that there's bike traffic.
