This is not a credible concern.

Vaccination reduces the infection rate. Among vaccinated individuals who suffer breakthrough infection the time at peak viral load is significantly reduced.
I would say 3-5 years without vaccines. See for example the 1889 pandemic [1], which might have also been induced by a coronavirus. It's hard to say with a vaccine since there is no real precedent. If I had to guess I'd say 1-3 years?

I'm gonna be honest, I do use RSS, but I dread it due to a) not every website supporting it, b) random sites having feeds that are way too noisy, c) liking one category of posts or one author and failing to extract those posts only, or d) random people I like publishing on multiple websites.

Now I can get around it with a ton of effort, but it will break sooner or later, which is why why I find Twitter/Mastodon lists far more useful and flexible.
Influenza is a different virus which mutates aggressively (recombinant), I'm not under the impression sars-cov2 is similar in this regard.
Fairly sure, using a similar model. New signups driven by the movie were about four million, so retention and lagging signups only needed to contribute another ~10 million subscription months.
Salaries have climbed. Particularly for the home buying demographics.

The real (inflation adjusted) median household income hit an all-time high in 2019. At $68,700 it was approximately $12,000 higher than 2012, and roughly 10-11% higher than the peak of the housing bubble. Incomes shot up rapidly from 2014 to 2019. For the people at the median or above, things have continued to be great in terms of income position (Covid didn't roll back those gains), as labor supply remains tight for most median pay and above jobs.

So if mortgage rates have declined considerably (cut in half), and we're just now back to home prices being inflation adjusted where they were during the housing bubble peak, and real median household incomes are also 10% higher, and the US household disposable income to debt service payment ratio is near decades lows, that leaves a lot more room for higher mortgage payments - which fully explains the upward trajectory in housing prices.

I was thinking about something similar along these lines—why draw the boundary at the physical device in your hands? From the article:

Basically, if you signed in to your corp gmail from a device, they claimed the right to audit it at any point in the future.

But iOS apps are supposed to be sandboxed! So as long as I install a separate Mail app for my work email, my company should have no justification for auditing anything else on my iPhone, right?

Or, going in the other direction—what if my company wants to audit every device connected to the same wifi network as my work phone? Why wouldn’t they want to do that? Is it really any different?

It's nice to try out something new and write about it. In this case, IEEE 1901 devices would probably be cheaper, faster, and more reliable than IEEE 802.11.

There was nothing incorrect about their scientific judgments. Modern behavioral genetics have confirmed both the concerns and the potential effectiveness of the eugenicists. What changed was that, as a society, we no longer think the trade-off is worth it: we are now willing to sacrifice future generations to quiet down our conscience. How much of this is actually a considered choice, and how much of it is simply down to the fact that future people aren't around to complain...I'll leave it to you to decide.

> But, in Kindleberger's theory, investors got over-excited about the economic changes the new technology brought about. They began seeing the sky as the limit. They over-speculated on land near railroad stops, often borrowing from banks and racking up debt in the process. At some point, reality kicked in, and prices began to fall. Once prices fell, investors couldn't pay their debts, and that led to a crisis. It's a general pattern he finds repeated over and over in history.

So, a bubble? Once the "overoptimistic" part kicks in I fail to see how there's any substantiative difference between the two scenarios. All markets grow on fundamentals til they don't, and when they don't you have a bubble.

Sounds like people creating distinction where there isn't any to justify their "this is fundamentals" position. The article is a whole lot of noise about nothing.

We are currently in a housing bubble, 100%. Add on top of that massive monetary inflation. To what degree the prices reflect the housing bubble or the increase in money supply, I don't know. But I do know the best thing that could happen is the bubble pop, because the alternative is much much worse.

Yes, you are right. At the same time, flu viruses are very different from coronaviruses. We didn't get any shots against OC43 and the three other already endemic coronaviruses.

Also, note that older people and immune-deficient people (who are most likely those needing a shot every year) have been dying from ordinary cases of flu before, too.

And now that there are new variants in the wild because of people not doing all of those things, the vaccines, lockdowns, and masks still keep ICU beds from overflowing. But you have to actually do them.

No, these foods are not of themselves bad for you. What's bad is likely to be the amount consumed. Given the vast amount of information available from trustworthy sources including the packaging on the food itself, it's not difficult to get sensibly informed regarding one's own nutritional requirements. Sadly, taking the necessary steps to meet them seems to be an incredibly difficult task for huge numbers of people. This is an observation not a moral judgment.
You're acting in bad faith and you know it. You can't just say "lockdowns/masks/vaccines should have stopped covid, but they didn't", when you know that a lot of people out there refused to mask up, refused to quarantine and refused to get the vaccine.

People with your thinking are the reason we're still in this pandemic.

There seems to be a recursive aspect to this. Accusations of racism are used to silence (censor) voices.

From the article:

Charges of “racism,” for instance, are primarily deployed against the political opponents of upwardly-mobile, highly-educated progressive white people. Even to the point of branding prominent black or brown dissenters as race-traitors (despite the reality that, on average, blacks and Hispanics tend to be significantly more socially conservative and religious than whites).
Scientists are allowed and should be allowed to say "the data changed, so our recommendation changed". Politicians and health leaders have a responsibility to interpret the data and develop communications and policies that build trust and inform the public. It's a failure on the part of the latter when they make promises to the public that they know are not guaranteed.

They have made definitive statements that are wrong too many times in the past year and a half. That is a massive failure. The average joe has nowhere near the time nor expertise required to interpret the scientific data out there, so trust is everything for them. At some point, you run out of the good will required to say "ok, I'll trust you again". Maintaining trust is a leader's most important job.
> - Lockdowns should have stopped covid.

Not everyone cooperated with lockdowns, rendering them less effective.

Not everyone is getting vaccinated, rendering it less effective.

I see a pattern here with an obvious solution, and it's not doubting the "true" science and declaring ourselves epidemiologists, virologists, and public health experts.
The Complexity of Gradient Descent: CLS = PPAD ∩ PLS
"...It is hard to overstate the importance of Gradient Descent. As noted by Jin et al. [2021], “Machine learning algorithms generally arise via formulations as optimization problems, and,despite a massive classical toolbox of sophisticated optimization algorithms and a major
modern effort to further develop that toolbox, the simplest algorithms—gradient descent, which dates to the 1840s [Cauchy, 1847] and stochastic gradient descent, which dates to the 1950s [Robbins and Monro, 1951]—reign supreme in machine learning.”..."

"Our main result is to show that finding a point where Gradient Descent on a continuously differentiable function terminates—or equivalently a KKT point—is PPAD ∩ PLS-complete, when the domain is a bounded convex polytope. This continues to hold even when the domain is as simple as the unit square [0, 1]. The PPAD ∩ PLS-completeness result applies to the “white box” model, where functions are represented as arithmetic circuits.

"...As an immediate consequence, our result provides convincing evidence that the problem is computationally hard. First of all, there are reasons to believe that PPAD ∩ PLS is hard simply because PPAD and PLS are believed to be hard. Indeed, if PPAD ∩ PLS could be solved in polynomial time, then, given an instance of a PPADcomplete problem and an instance of a PLS-complete problem, we would be able to solve at least one of the two instances in polynomial time. Furthermore, since CLS ⊆ PPAD ∩ PLS, the above-mentioned cryptographic hardness of CLS applies automatically to PPAD ∩ PLS, and thus to our problem of interest..."

...what are you talking about?

You don't just "have an extra $4,000 a month" if you pay off your house. You lose all the money that's currently earning you 4-6%.

$4k/mon is probably a million dollar loan or so, right? Well 4-6% of a million dollars is $40,000-$60,000 per year. $3,333 - $5,000 per month.

You can just fund everything you said using the interest gained on the million dollars, while at the same time putting money towards paying off the house.

Of course, we're talking about a 2% rate. If it was 4+% then it might not be worth the risk.
Well, what the author is doing is a) using these games to explain themes of history (e.g., interstate relations, internal political tensions within the Long 19th Century), and b) critiquing how mechanics in these games do or do not reflect the history. It's the same vein of a city planner explaining how SimCity does and doesn't reflect real-life city planning, and such discussions absolutely do exist.

Of course, one of the challenges of a historical game is that pop history does exist to a larger degree than other subjects, and you can get ferocious arguments of the historicity of the game where people use incorrect pop history as the basis. For EU4, colonization is absolutely in that boat; after the most recent patch, there is a vocal crowd about how ahistorical it is that North America is now filled with lots of natives that have to be conquered rather than empty land to be passively colonized.

It could be worth it to spend the 1.50$ on stripe to do identity verification with id documents for accounts of a certain size, so that they can present those documents again to regain access to their account.

> More equity and interest is deductible.

It is much harder to deduct interest these days with the higher standard deduction. Interest deductions on a cheaper house might only a few years unless you have something else going on with your custom deductions.

The equity aspect is also questionable. Cheaper markets are cheap for a reason, and while they might hit a growth spurt, it is far from guaranteed. A booming market with high prices might also continue to...boom even more. Anyways, the market is actually efficient, you can't find a loophole that everyone else is missing.
