>Migrants, even illegal migrants, in the United States DO have rights. The bill of rights covers all people in our country, whether they are undocumented, tourists, students, or whatever. If you abuse them, they may be deported, but you can be prosecuted and serve prison time for abusing them.

This means they will have to weight-in the deportation cost to them. So they have half-rights compared to someone who doesn't have to be concerned with that...
But there is the possibility that Robinhood was also cutting trading to appease Citadel, who to my understanding, just happened to re-engage their short positions right before Robinhood cut buying to Gamestop stock.

If the story about Robinhood running out of money is true, why wouldn't they just ban buying on margin and not all buying? I don't understand that.

> I have to discount their math abilities.

Do you? The implication that "applied math" doesn't involve math abilities is an interesting one, but doesn't have bearing on reality. There is a good bit of interesting, and quite challenging, applied mathematics going on out there. Including large chunks of what we usually call "computer science".

If I'm a hiring manager hiring for a position where quantitative skills matter, hiring someone who did applied math at a high level is absolutely something I would look for.

If you're doing what I think you are, this is not possible except in the month that your yearly contract renews. I went through the same thing.

You've most likely got yearly licences that you pay off monthly, which means you can only modify on a yearly basis, so they don't let you modify most of the year.

Though Concourse isn’t entirely duplexed; ⅌ https://mbtype.com/pdf/concourse-type-specimen.pdf#page=7:

> Duplexing. In type, duplexing means matching the widths between styles so that each character occupies the same space on the page. This way, you can easily change the weight and style without affecting your layout. In Concourse, weights 2, 3, 4, and 6 are duplexed to each other. (For this reason, the three lighter weights all use weight 6 as their bold style by default.) Every italic is also duplexed to its roman, including weights 7 and 8.

So yeah, all normal use is duplexed, but it has a couple of extra-bold weights that don’t fit that way.

This also draws attention to the other area you may want to think about this with: italics. Definitely depends on the style; broadly speaking, serifs won’t want to duplex their italics (they’ll most commonly be narrower), but sans-serifs might.

Why not rather petition places that is not racist hellholes to take the undocumented immigrants and even some US citizens as refugees? Why try and get them into a racist hellhole in the first place? Just because it is not the worst place in the world, does not mean that the US is not a hellhole.

Looks interesting! I wonder whether there'd be interesting new database applications on NVMe when doing as small as 512 byte I/Os (with more efficient "IO engine" than Linux bio, that has too high CPU overhead with such small requests).

I mean, currently OLTP RDBMS engines tend to use 4k, 8k (and some) 16k block size and when doing completely random I/O (or, say traversing an index on customer_id that now needs to read random occasional customer orders across years of history). So you may end up reading 1000 x 8 kB blocks just to read 1000 x 100B order records "randomly" scattered across the table from inserts done over the years.

Optane persistent memory can do small, cache line sized I/O I understand, but that's a different topic. When being able to do random 512B I/O on "commodity" NVMe SSDs efficiently, this would open some interesting opportunities for retrieving records that are scattered "randomly" across the disks.

edit: to answer your question, I used 10 separate fio commands with numjobs=3 or 4 for each and randrepeat was set to default.
You can enable TPM and PIN at boot that engages with the TPM, or you can just use TPM in which case your disk is unlocked by the bootloader (IIRC, terminology might be off).

The TPM and PIN has protections against brute forcing and offline attacks. The TPM only method for Bitlocker is more similar to FileVault.
I'm still using OnePlus 6. It's ok, I wouldn't say I love it but I use my phone only for chatting and browsing reddit so it's not worth a change. Besides, before I bought OnePlus 6 in 2018 I had a Samsung and it was a total shitshow. So I guess overall I'm happy with it.
Same opinion here. Whereas with Mac you’re setting things in one place across all of your apps, and it accounts for different scaling factors for different displays, this just seems like a huge pain to have to set things on an almost per-app basis.
Lot of countries are effectively going cashless by design or by market forces.

virtual workspaces is what i am using now. trouble is that on a dual monitor setup that does not work very well, because either both workspaces move on both monitors at the same time (like kde does) or one monitor is static and only has one work space (like gnome support). the latter is slightly better, but wastes space because i can only organize one screen into multiple workspaces.

there are few window managers/ wayland compositors that do that right. enlightenment is one, but i couldn't get used to it. wayfire is a new compiz style wayland compositor that does it right too. loved that one, as i was a fan of compiz before (and i got wobbly windows with kde now too :-) but unfortunately not stable enough for daily use.
What costs are they leading in? Stock, ETF, and mutual fund trades cost nothing on all the major platforms. (Maybe not options, but most people shouldn't be trading options, as they all just learned.)
Not really, because the amount of deposit you need to put up is proportional to the volatility, among other factors. Therefore it makes sense to shut down trading for the stocks that incur a disproportionately high amount of deposit requirements for them. I guess it's possible for them to say "fuck it" and let everything trade until they run out of money, but I don't think they have an obligation to do that.

I am sorry, but we certainly do not need the worst parts of the US system. It is not just bad. It is catastrophic.

Because anyone buying right away after funding an account or selling the same day as buying is buying on margin. Margin is used to make a lot of the "instant" stuff happen. True cash accounts make them difficult to use for the day trading these people like to do.

I don't see why marriage should be a legal process "provided" by the state. People from different cultural and personal backgrounds have differing views on marriage. You think divorce should be difficult so that people take marriage seriously, but there are likely many others in your country that would vehemently disagree. Even the choice of words, "sanctity", suggests to me that marriage would be better served as a purely religious ceremony. The government can then provide the legal aspects of today's marriage in some kind of "registered partnership", which would have none of the cultural baggage and be purely functional.
I set up Linux on a Dell XPS 13 with the HiDPI screen. With both Ubuntu and Manjaro it was relatively painless, especially using GNOME via Wayland. i3 and sway also worked well too.

Overdue maintenance for real people.

Cloth and/or ungrounded wiring is a electrocution and fire hazard and should be considered unsafe for anybody using basic electrics near any water source, much more if it has any load.

Unequal voting power doesn't just arise from unequal votes, it also arises from correlated/block votes.

Making votes unequal can counteract unequal voting power.

Unequal voting is one of the reasons that e.g. people in urban centres can't just capriciously turn the far away state of Wyoming into a poorly managed nuclear waste dump.

I've never had a vehicle that required less maintenance than my 2017 Volt. Up to 100k KM on it now and I've changed the oil once + tire swaps and some rust removal on the brakes because they don't get much use due to regen. That's all. But 88% of my travel is pure electric, so. The ICE only needs as much maintenance as you use it for.
We don't have variable pricing for residential usage where I live but you can get a meter for home EV charging installed that does do variable pricing. From 11pm-7am, the cost is a penny per kilowatt hour, so practically free. Outside of those hours, the cost is either seven cents or twenty cents per kwh depending on the time of day and season. A 20X difference in charging cost is a pretty good incentive to plan things out so the car can be charged overnight.

Accuracy and dexterity are no so important, just bipedalism and law of large numbers - after N rocks are thrown all you need is one of two connections.

Because DTCC requires cash collateral while the transaction is settled whether the transaction happens in a margin account or a cash account. There's no distinction from DTCC's perspective. DTCC (reportedly) increased the collateral on $GME transactions to 100% of the transaction price compared to the typical 1-3% of the price.
