The EU isn't one country

The US is one country and disparate voting power between states(mainly in the Senate, to a lesser extent with the electoral college) is a real problem. I see little reason to make it worse. Although it's useful to rhetoric out how little sense the current system makes
I'd guess yes, for some people. Others, though, will refuse to use copilot out of sheer obstinacy if nothing else. They will produce the new paradigms for copilot to then consume.

NSA isn't.

And blindly accepting things as it is, is the root cause of corporate decay.

If you want a high performance team that cares about management and the job, management will have to return the favor. If corporate structures prevent managers from doing this, managers need to band together and fight HR or whoever is far behind the curve.

Sorry, you are representing your company to the ICs. If you, a middle manager, can't talk to the powers-that-be to change the system, your reports will lose their trust towards you.
This article is wildly off-base and totally misrepresents South Korea, both factually and in tone. There are many ways that South Korea is a great country but this article misses the mark. Source: I've been married to a South Korean for 10 years.

> South Korea was able to make these achievements without a citywide nor a nationwide lockdown.

A large part of the country is literally in Level 4 lockdowns now (no gatherings >5, beaches closed, pubs closed, daycares closed, etc). [1]

South Korea has mandatory military service for all men. They're required be in the military for nearly two years. [2]

Korean society is high patriarchal. Domestic violence is persistent. Families are not complete until they have a son. Multiple daughters are considered a burden. Gender roles are consistently enforced.

Sex crimes are a major issue [3]. Nearly every woman has been assaulted in a serious and unusual way (men outside windows, breaking into their apartment, flashing, etc). By law cellphone manufacturers have to program their phones to produce a shutter sound when a photo is taken. This was an attempt to curb upskirt and other voyeur photos. Female-only train cars are common due to rampant groping on public transit.

People absolutely do not trust their government. In 2016 the president was impeached in one of the most bizarre political scandals of the last decade. [4] There was a dizzying array of conspiracy theories involving the ferry boat that killed 294 people (mostly highschool students) [5].

The country's economy is dominated by a small group of super-corporations (chaebols) like Samsung. A massive percentage of the population is employed with just a few firms and nearly all products are produced by them. The amount of influence these groups have is something out of dystopian sci-fi. [6]

South Koreans frequently believe in superstitions, fortune tellers, urban legends, etc., and generally struggle with critical thinking or questioning established ideas.

How fast can you pipe a large file to a C++ program?
You should not be downvoted. Historically, this was the view. A traditional 'family' was mainly seen as a man's responsibility. The word 'husband' itself literally means a man bound to a house (i.e., a family or a lineage).

Best of luck in your search for a wife. As a married man with kids, starting a family is the most wonderful thing. I feel terrible for young men and women during COVID, it's just a terrible human tragedy created by the government. IMO, dating should have been considered an essential activity. It would have been good for restaurants and the economy and young people. Tell the married people with kids to stay home while the young people can all go dance it up and get hitched. It's foundational to society.

Zuckerberg is running out of rope. He knows he can no longer apologize and promise to be good and have everybody trust him on his word so he can go back to playing his tricks.

In my experience B2 Cloud hosting is at least a magnitude slower for larger files and 2-5x slower for smaller files. If you need to do lots of look ups, forget about it. I'm mostly using it as a sort of archival system. Storing data that doesn't need to get there quickly. It's a very small use case. Even for larger server backups, its way too slow. Oh also they don't allow you to change regions, or have region specific buckets. You are locked into it with your account creation.

Their prices are so low that their real price is the $ cost and this slowness. So I use a mix of B2 and S3 depending on the use case.
Yeah, I think the real mistake was when everyone decided to use UTC instead of TAI. I can't actually hold the astronomers to blame for this. More likely it was telephone network engineers or someone at a stock exchange.

There are no tricks to the Notecard's pricing. The 500MB/10-years of data is embedded within the hardware pricing, which is $49 for North America and $59 for 135+ countries.

It may just be an attempt to use precise language in an (unsuccessful) attempt to not be misunderstood.
It might be valued that way presently, but that doesn't mean that's the worth. The companies that rightly assess the situation and determine that the cost of mistakes made because institutional knowledge is gone or the cost to productivity of retaining replacement personnel is high enough to justify an additional 2% - 6% annual salary increase across the board will outperform the companies that are constantly paying the training toll.

How many times have you had a deployment go wrong shortly after the one guy who knew how everything worked left? What did it cost the company in terms of developer hours, productivity, opportunity cost? How many times have you witnessed a new hire take 30 - 90 days to get even halfway up to the speed and productivity levels of someone who's been with the company for a year or two? If you're swapping one employee for a small handful of failures plus a new, at-market employee who has half the productivity level for a full quarter then you're easily paying a 25% premium to let that employee go, when you could've retained them and made them feel appreciated for a 6% annual raise. It's frustratingly straightforward to determine which result is better for the company's bottom line.

Please provide examples tying the gold standard to boom bust cycle frequency. Boom and bust in the 1800s was largely isolated to locations undergoing new development for resource utilization. People moved in to take advantage of plentiful resources. When the resources were depleted the town went bust. Because of westward expansion there were many new resources to take advantage of. The frequency of boom bust in the 1800s had nothing to do with the gold standard.

We had a boom period with fracking recently. People and businesses rushed to get a piece of the action. The majority of those people are going to leave and take their money with them causing a localized bust.

Boom bust cycles are not related to a gold standard existing or not. However, with fiat currency, boom bust cycles can apply to the entire national economy, not just one location.
My cure for stagnation is to play more. Amazing how playing at a pet project will get your juices flowing.
Austria was never part of Germany. It was part of the Holy Roman Empire and after that the German Confederation, with the latter being dissolved in 1866. The first actual united German state was founded in 1871 as the German Empire, without Austria (Kleindeutsche Lösung).

> There is a very real salary range between "low enough that I'll think about applying for other jobs" and "so low I'll actually start applying for jobs".

True, the other side is if you're trying to hire and pay the same industry salary, people aren't going to move because what's the point? If you're trying to hire a lot of people you have to pay more than average just to get people interested.

There has to be a coin attached to it because that is how you incentivize actors within the ecosystem to take certain actions (eg. "share their hard disk space" for FileCoin or "view ads" for BAT).

The central premise of these projects is that humans make terrible decisions, markets make good decisions, so let's replace humans with markets whenever possible. Right now, some exec at Google determines how many ads you see on the Internet. The premise of Brave & BAT is that you decide whether you want to see ads on the Internet, you get compensated for viewing them, and if enough people decide the ads are not worth their time, they'll turn them off and drive the price of BAT up enough that people do want to view them.

Right now, some exec at Amazon decides how much you pay for S3. The premise of FileCoin & IPFS is that lots of ordinary home users have spare hard drive space, and they should be able to be compensated for renting out that space to projects that need lots of distributed storage. The market price of FileCoin is that which equilibrates demand for storage with supply.
There is limited supply of housing and low qualified jobs.

Maybe read what Marx wrote about Irish immigrants to UK. And those already spoke local language and shared similar culture.
People filing these things often typo as they are just people too. I follow many "youtube laywer" channels and its a surprise then they cover a document that doesn't contain a typo or two.

EDIT: It's even worse in the replies, as they can be worked on until close to the last min of the filing deadline. If its a major issue they will are most always allowed to file an ammended filing, but most of the time judges will let a small number of typos slide.
Yes, but if no one ever spends the money, it will never change.

The main reason why alternatives failed so far it wasn't for lack of technical capabilities, rather companies not willing to put the money in for the long road it takes to reboot everything.

At least the majority of userspace applications are moving into the right direction, specially those being deployed on cloud environments on top of orchestrated runtimes, or the mobile phone apps.

What should be the appropriate response to this kind of situation?

The shuffling of leadership doesn't feel like it's really enough and it doesn't guarantee that any positive changes will come of it.

The fact that these issues have been going on for YEARS with women too scared to speak up or being quietly silenced and ignored has really been opening up my eyes to the seriousness of this situation and the need for real change. Why did it require having a woman take her own life for us to finally start having a serious conversation about this? Not that I'd point fingers at anyone, since I'm clearly guilty of this as well.

How many more could be helped or saved if we took action now rather than waiting for more people to jump over the edge?
By your reasoning we could describe the entirety of everything as a brain. It's just brains all the way. Can any meaning be extracted from that, at all? Seems to me semantics and language are really just illusions of meaning.
The president of the Blizzard Entertainment Studio (J. Allen Brack) resigned today too:

Yeah a new browser is inevitable. Main bottleneck is currently getting the full power of the CPU, especially when there is no GPU present, as browsers have pretty high overhead that bottlenecks the application.
That's a great idea on TJ's part. I have also wondered how giving some amount of project ownership to low level employees would help with morale. In grocery stores you see every little thing optimized by a marketing team; from the way products are stacked, to what the cashier is allowed to say to you. But what if some of these jobs were given to the employees? I think we need to let workers be more creative. Give them a reason to feel invested in what they're doing and reward them for trying hard. You can find what they're good at over time, the hard part is making them feel like what they do matters.

It seems like modern management theory has gone out of its way to optimize out the impact that any one low level employee can have on the company. And that makes sense when the goal is to make money. But what you're left with is a society full of people in mind numbing dead end jobs developing psychological issues.
Only for Apple silicon Macs. Shame.
I really appreciate that, and this is one of the main pieces of feedback I was looking for. I would like to make it a business, so I've been studying the issue and it seems there is a gap in the market for homeowners who want to plan and document their work outside of Excel, paper, etc. I've also heard that there are some sellers who would like to transfer detailed "knowledge" about a house to future owners, and certainly many buyers who would value that information. But I certainly don't plan to force anyone to share anything about the house (issues, work done, etc.) that they don't want to share. Your perspective is extremely helpful.

If it doesn't make sense for homeowners, I'm also wondering if there's an interest in using a tool like this for the upkeep of buildings and structures in the public interest (schools, infrastructure, etc.), in which case transparency and ability to transfer knowledge might make more sense. But I know that's a completely different animal altogether.

That doesn’t seem correct, at least not universally. Germany invited a large number of immigrant workers to deal with its labor shortage after WW2.

I think it mostly has to do with access to convenient birth control, like IUDs and birth control pills.

Give poor women education and access to those, and even poorer countries will see similar declines in birth rate.

I think humanity’s growth was dependent on women not having a say in the matter. All the situations I see where women have gained the ability to easily choose whether or not to have kids lead to lower birth rates.
I don't think so. First and foremost, house insulation can also be done when you rent out the apartments (but often the landlord has little incentive to do it). Second, electrical cars are expensive, yes, but they don't subsidize the well-off because they would have bought expensive gasoline cars otherwise. Who really profits from the subsidies is the middle class: You can lease small electric vehicles quite cheaply and if I am not completely mistaken, you can buy an electric Dacia for 10k€ after subsidies. So yes, this is not for the working poor. But the working poor hardly invest anyways, so it is really difficult to setup an incentive program for them.

Yea they were mostly rebuilding the physical world and not having to completely rebuild society from the ground. Small countries like the Nordics aren’t great examples because they’re so small and a massive part of their wealth came from selling oil to the wider world. The amount of oil revenue generated per person in those countries allowed them develop such a high standard of living along with really smart and egalitarian government policy and investment. That’s not really repeatable for a country as large as the US although money could certainly be used better.

France invited large amounts of immigrants from Africa to help rebuild so it’s not like they didn’t see immigration.

I think there are two main reasons that the poorest parts of the population are stagnating. One is poverty traps, and especially multi generational poverty traps are very hard to escape. Another is geographic location. Americans dont move as much as they used to, all around the world poorer people move to areas with more jobs and opportunity but today mostly richer people move and poorer people stay put in areas that are impoverished.

Immigrants largely don’t come with a set geography or generational poverty weighing them down which is why their kids do so well.

Part of the reason for not allowing default apps to be set programmatically is that everyone else was abusive with this functionality. You’d install some 3rd party app and it would hijack your default settings to use their shit program. Or malware would do something like set a file association for .exe files so every program launch would relaunch their malware.

At least this way, only Microsoft is abusing the user and there is one set location to fix things. Not that they aren’t extremely presumptuous about it, but at least it only comes from the one vendor and not all of them.
