247,000 people reported making federal minimum wage in 2020 according to BLS data.[1] It's a little less than 1/6% of 161 million.

This excludes 865,000 who reported making less. And a probably much larger number making local minimum wages. And any self employed or salaried workers who make minimum wage or less effectively. And anyone making the slightest amount more.

I'm having a very hard time with those words "concentration camps".

I know I'm supposed to be horrified by these photos, but I can't help compare with them with Nazi concentration camps, and these seem like people confined, but otherwise perfectly comfortable and fine.

We need some other word than "concentration camps" - the difference between the two is too stark, and it's really bothering me.
Are you referring to me? No, I don't agree with that at all.

Mind you, I've been at 2 organizations that have purchased chips from foundries, and we turned down both Intel and IBM's offers. I'd love to see more competition in that industry, and Intel buying GloFo will add to competition on the high end.
> some CPS will require kids to have their own bedrooms.

AFAIK, rules of that type in state law, regulation, or child services practice generally apply strictly to substitute placements like foster and prospective or probationary adoptive homes, not regular custodial family settings, and even then usually allow room sharing for all of infants with parents, with children under a threshold age (commonly 5 or a little older), and children of the same gender regardless of age, though there may be numerical limits to each.

If you can cite a specific rule or supportive case that not having their own room alone can be a basis for CPS action anywhere in the US against a parent with permanent custody, please share.

> Property owners who take government housing benefits are also required to make sure children have their own bedrooms.

No, they aren't. In fact, subsidy programs often set a maximum number of bedrooms of a subsidized unit as number of people/2, rounded up to a whole number [0], absolutely preventing each child from having a bedroom unless there is exactly one child. Which is one reason the earlier claim about CPS is not true.

[0] for an example, see https://www.scchousingauthority.org/section-8-current-partic... — note that the 2 occupants per bedroom standard is a national HUD standard (stemming from the 1991 Keating memo, subsequently mandated for adoption as HUD policy by the Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act of 1998.)

HN is not law school and you would be well-advised not to treat it as one. There's a ton of false information about the law flying around here and not nearly enough educated people or time to correct it all. If you want to know the law, go to law school, or ask a practicing lawyer.
Doesn’t it boil down to the same problem, though?

Maybe bob@example.com says something Google doesn’t like so gets blocked from sending to gmail.com or any other email server hosted by Google, which is a huge swath of people similar in scale to the YouTube audience.

Through either the accumulation of capital (e.g. computational power) or consolidation of political power, central authorities can police traffic to censor information on a massive scale, even on decentralized protocols like email.

So yes, at that point, you could argue that the locus of agency falls on Bob to start his own tech empire or whatever, but that becomes absurd. We’ve already seen censorship at the infrastructure level and even the domain registrar level, which is extreme.

There’s always a middle man on the Internet, or any peer to peer system with more than two edges for that matter. The problem arises when that middle man grows into a giant leviathan hell bent on manipulating the conversation of parties between itself.

The title says that minimum wage cannot afford any apartments, while it should actually say that minimum wage cannot afford average two bedroom apartments.

The current title is misleading as it's not true that minimum wage cannot afford renting at all. They can, for example, afford cheaper-than-average two bedroom apartments.

It's just arguing about the misleading title...
Even those numbers are highly misleading since half the states in the US (containing a strong majority of the population) have minimum wages that are higher than the federal minimum wage.

Spies routinely interact with the underworld to do their jobs (organized crime, etc.)

The idea that Epstein helped facilitate those interactions because he was a scumbag himself is very probable.

I love that there's a "technology will fix things" model. This assumes we'll discover some magical bullet, that we haven't thought of, that will counteract erosion of topsoil, water shortages, and climate change. Another implicit assumption is that we'll be able to move forward unilaterally with such a solution, instead of it becoming a political football until it's too late to do anything, like climate change. A lot of modern democratic republics are about 200 years old, or less, but we keep thinking to ourselves, "this civilization will be different".

I'd put money on BAU2 over CT any day of the week.
This is my feeling. Money is no problem for me, but I'm not immune to purchasing stuff I don't end up using. So I'm cautious about that and I'm sitting here wondering about the value. Say, the $650 model.

On one hand it would be nice to have my Steam games on a portable without having to double-purchase(a problem ATM with Switch, on top of the higher typical costs of those games on eShop).

But I have the Switch and Switch Lite already which plays Nintendo exclusives. Honestly it's nice to get a break and dip into a catalogue that's not on my PC when I'm on the go. And I'm 100% not going to take two portables with me anywhere.

Then there is the cost. $650 for me would be better spent toward a PS5 if I could get my hands on one. I like the Sony exclusives(GoW, Last of Us, etc) and would really like to play Returnal.. Though it will probably go cross-platform before I ever see a PS5 with my own eyes.

The more I think about it's price point and value to me the more I get the Shield vibes, and the more impressive it is how well Nintendo knows their customers and rides a very fine line with their product placement.

Edit: As an added thought; I like to experience certain games, shows, and movies in a very controlled environment. I won't play/watch them on-the-go.

Note that there are ideas to fix this issue in the async foundations WG. It's arguably more of a problem with async as implemented in Rust than with the concept of RAII.

That's why nowadays most web standard uses "origin" rather than "domain".
What new consensus? There is no new or old consensus, and this article does not indicate otherwise.

The one thing that has consensus from early on is that the virus is not man made. However, that did get muddied and confused with the possibility of a lab leak. In other words, lab origin is not the same thing as lab leak.

It is, however, wrong and harmful to suggest it was a lab leak without evidence. And that is what a lot of social media people were saying at the time. It's also not wrong to hypothesize that it could have been leaked from a lab. But most of the stuff I saw being censored or fact checked was not presented as a "possibility".
Wait until you hear that the Sun will collapse! We're all doomed! Better lie in bed and wait to die. Oh wait, we die! Oh no, another catastrophe!

Imagine if the majority was simply paralyzed by this fear of change that fuels all the "collapse" theories.

Everything is constantly changing and we all die, get over it.
> overloading introduces ambiguity that cannot be resolved at the code-unit level

This seems clearly false to me. Operator overloading is non-virtual type-based dispatch, just like the dot operator for method calls in C++/Java/etc., and is resolved statically at compile time. You can think of overloadable "+" as just syntactic sugar for an ".add()" method (in fact, this is more or less exactly how it's implemented in Rust). Even if your language doesn't have methods, you can implement overloading with typeclasses, like Haskell does (as does Rust, formally speaking).
I think that statement about "complex systems" being an alternative paradigm to reductionism is a bit unfortunate (articles in Wikipedia have varying quality). I believe they refer to emergence, a concept which they include in "complex systems", because reductionism in its simplest form means that the whole is composed by the parts and emergence says that there are phenomena which emerge from the combination of individual parts and distinct to these. But these two concepts are not orthogonal, see:

https://philosophy.stackexchange.com/questions/4615/whats-th...

The World3 model of the MIT study is just a set of 149 differential-algebraic equations [1]. The output of the model (population, industrial output, etc.) is mathematically a composition of simpler parts. They are saying that the earth is a very complex system but these four or five variables can be explained by these bunch of equations that represent basic processes. To me, that is reductionism.

Not sure what you mean but I realized that no matter how I phrase my comment, it has the potential to be misinterpreted.

I simply was trying to say that minimum wage has a definition, and I’m assuming that definition is safe housing and sufficient food and other necessities. I’m assuming that it does not mean a certain size of housing, designer clothes, eating out a certain times a week and so on, since after all by definition it is minimum.
I fail to connect your point to.. a point?

The switch sells well because its where you have to go to play Nintendo games, but you just go on about sales figures. If it had no exclusives, we wouldn't be having this conversation right now.
