The buyer of US labor is the government and capital. Taxes on all US economic activity and coffers filled with worldwide profits are what purchases comparatively expensive US labor. This is why, e.g., most people can not afford new housing construction -- excess money has been dumped into it from the stimulus, driving costs up. Similar things have happened on a longer timescale for IT and engineering.

Take what I said with some restrictions, like "US workers can't afford skilled or semiskilled US labor" which is afaict true. I work in production automation, life sciences, and software; my hobby projects in these area are unfortunately quite expensive due to US labor costs. As much as possible I must avoid using US labor if I want to get anything done.
The follow up argument is how much fresh water it takes to both hydrate the cow and to grow the feed.

According to this article it takes 1847 gallons of water to make 1 lb of beef and 122 to make one gallon of milk, compared to 39 for 1 lb of vegetables:

https://www.denverwater.org/tap/whats-the-beef-with-water

Admittedly, that water doesn't disappear and stays in the water cycle, but every lb of beef that is reduced from the diet saves enough water to supply a household of 4 for almost a week (assuming 80 gallons per person/day)

With the droughts due to climate change interfering with the water cycle and changing the actual local climates of farming areas, without change happening it may become a requirement to drastically reduce the amount of beef that we consume in order to have enough water to survive.

Either that or we will need to start catching rain as it falls on the ocean and shipping it in to make up for the overuse.

Focusing only in the substance w/ pharmaceutical interest, with a reductionist view, may be missing the point IMO.

In the Amazon basin you'll find different tribes, with different ceremonies, where ayahuasca may be administered in different ways and associated with other things (e.g. "rapé"), not to mention how the particular shaman (or "pajé") conducts the ceremony and the overall setting (being in the middle of the jungle, at night, is an experience in itself if you're not used to it).

For my country (Germany), you just have to look up the history of "Made in Germany". Which Britain introduced to defend against cheap knock-off products made in Germany, which was learning from (i.e. "stealing" in today's terms) by copying.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Made_in_Germany#History

> The label was originally introduced in Britain by the Merchandise Marks Act 1887, to mark foreign produce more obviously, as foreign manufactures had been falsely marking inferior goods with the marks of renowned British manufacturing companies and importing them into the United Kingdom. Most of these were found to be originating from Germany, whose government had introduced a protectionist policy to legally prohibit the import of goods in order to build up domestic industry

Very well stated Steve! Excellent read.....and your last two paragraphs are spot on regarding development processes. I started my career as a support engineer, but eventually someone figured out I could talk in front of customers and not screw the pooch, so I became a project manager, and eventually an executive level program manager.

One thing I figured out early on was that development processes really haven't changed, no matter how much spin folks put on new approaches (Agile, etc). I wrote processes for major tech companies, but always told anyone I mentored that processes really haven't changed that much.....it's the same ole "best practices" with new marketing spin terms added in. It drove me nuts when teams would try new techniques without realizing that you need to keep in mind the basic foundation processes, and even a hybrid approach if needed (and in most companies/cases, it was needed).

Anyway, I retired a few years ago because I was sick and tired of watching money get wasted on the latest new process or toy, when sticking to your guns and doing the hard, low level planning and structure at the beginning of a project was the real key. The "Rapid Development" book you mentioned is a great read and still 100% relevant today.

Cheers, Mike
IMO, this post takes a left turn off the freeway when it segues into fuzz testing. Those are super effective, no doubt, but I've come to the conclusion that finding bugs isn't the hard part.

Dan even admits fixing them is the hard part:

Perhaps you’re still a youth, in some ways? If so, it’s a good time to take risks and explore.

If money isn’t that important to you (and money seems to be what fuels climate change), you stand to gain so much more in neural connections even if you end up not enjoying the MCOL city.

I’m in my 40s, became a father a few years ago, and I feel I grew up more in these past three years than between puberty and parenthood. All my travels, work, relationships, and other exploration through books and games (physical games great, but solo videogame-time is a mistake to learn from; healthier ways to meet my needs at the time, but I was more ignorant and suggestible) continues to bubble up as memories to learn from. I’m both grateful for all the resources I had access to and frustrated that more young people don’t have access to just a little bit more so they could expand their view of life on earth. I might have been better off with fewer inanimate resources and better guidance from other people (family, friends, and especially mentors). I got some guidance, but I’ve tended towards stubborn and know-it-all, and less likely to really listen.

All that to say keep risking, learning and growing. Your future self and others may thank you for your efforts.
But isn't overeating the choice, not obesity? That is like saying decreased lung capacity, low blood oxygen or lung cancer are choices. Those are symptoms of choosing bto smoke, and insurers absolutely cannot discriminate based on them or emphysema. They discriminate based on the choice, and I agree it is hypocritical that they only ask if I have used tobacco and not high fructose corn syrup, but that is the question they should ask, not my bmi if they want to be consistent.

IMHO, the claim that pharo is not smalltalk is, to put it bluntly, nonsense.

Yes, I understand that Pharo may well eventually change the some semantics of the underlying language, or at least reserves the right to do so. Fine, call it "not smalltalk" when that happens (if ever).

Until then, call pharo what it is. An interesting, in some ways innovative, FORK OF SQUEAK SMALLTALK.

Its a squeak fork, in the same way that cuis smalltalk is a squeak fork. Both pharo and cuis have evolved in different directions, as per their original directives.

And you know what? Thats fine. Great, in fact. Each can (and does) learn from the other.

And they're both STILL smalltalk. And thats also fine!
I thought COM was a way to talk between applications/libraries, not between GUI elements?

I have not engaged in any outside marketing consultancy, lead gen or SEO. I have done some stuff myself, written blog posts and tried my hand at basic marketing tasks, but honestly i don't have much time for it. For gaining visibility, i mostly rely on app store optimization or paid ads.

Tech stack is swift, and python on the backend. I do listen to user requests and bugs, in fact I get tons of great feedback from my users with how quickly i respond to their issues, usually resolving issues within an hour, all on my own. It takes up a decent chunk of time, but I do care a lot about the customers, so that makes it worth it.

Minor nitpick: This is the wrong emblem, post-WWII ("second republic"), as may be recognized by the broken chains hanging from the fang.

Fun fact:

Q: Why are there hammer and sickle in the fangs of the eagle, is Austria a communist country? A: No, but it's actually related. The mural crown, the hammer and the sickle represent the three classes or estates, the mural crown the bourgeoisie, the hammer the workers and the sickle farmers, respectively. (This was ported over from a first, dismissed draft of 1918, showing a tower for the bourgeoisie in the center, surrounded by two bundles of ear heads and crossed hammers on top.) It's actually the same symbolism as used by communist states (minus the representation of the bourgeoisie) but totally unrelated.
Precisely (or to be really specific, starting with a suspicion of causation and using correlation as one piece of weak evidence).
1/ Consider other options. Could you find a different job in the other city with better pay?

2/ I like the suggestions made by others about trying it out. Maybe take the lower compensation, move, see how you feel. Especially good option if you can come back. So basically it is a reversible decision.

3/ Could it be something else besides the city and its vibe? If you had the exact same job in the new city would your happiness level settle back to where it is in your current city?

If I was in your situation I would take some action to break out of the analysis loop. Either move with 50% pay or find a job in the other city or use my vacation to live in the other city for a bit to assess my true feelings.
That study wasn't about finding all the cases that originated from the rally. That was just proving that in fact, people who never attended the rally got sick with the same genomic-markers as the COVID19 present at the rally.

Which means that the "spread" of COVID19 from Sturgis -> Minnesota cannot be denied.

-------

http://ftp.iza.org/dp13670.pdf

Page 60 (Appendix 5) shows a nice graph showing the "trendline" of COVID19 cases ("synthetic Meade county"), vs Actual Meade county.

We can see that COVID19 cases spiked pretty hard after the Sturgis rally. Now maybe there was some "other" superspreading event happening in that area at the same time... but Occam's Razor points to the giant 400,000+ person motorcycle rally without any mask precautions going on.

---------

> That's a drop in the bucket compared to the community spread in the US in 2020.

But you're right on this front. I think the poster earlier is overstating Sturgis's importance. Sturgis is just one event, there were plenty of others with far bigger spread (February 2020 Marti Gras New Orleans, especially because no one took any precautions during that event. It was "before COVID19" was well recognized by the public)

But without a doubt, Sturgis was a superspreading event. But there were _many_ superspreading events happening all over the place, so I personally don't want to put too much importance on Sturgis alone. The fact remains that many other events continued to take place, as that region didn't want to take precautions against COVID19 in general.

This is just politics. Given Delta and the number of breakthrough infections, if the EU was truly interested in reducing risk, its policy would recognize the fact that vaccination is no longer enough.

For comparison, I am an expat resident of Taiwan. I was fully vaccinated in the US. When I returned to Taiwan, I had to complete 14 days of quarantine in a government-approved quarantine hotel. In addition, I had to do 4 tests: a PCR test 3 days before my flight, a saliva PCR test upon arrival at the airport, a rapid antigen self-test 10 days into my quarantine and a (deep!) nasopharyngeal PCR test just prior to the end of quarantine.

Taiwan went over a year virtually COVID free before relaxed quarantine rules for air crew led to an outbreak. Thanks to its response and increased border controls, which reflect an understanding that vaccinated people can get and spread Delta, Taiwan is almost back to 0 COVID.

Alternative hypothesis:

What the US - and others, see my related comment about my own country (Germany) in this sub-thread - was not "questionable" at all. Instead, the way we defend "IP" today is what is questionable.

You won't find the equivalent of a law of physics to support either hypothesis, in the end those are different paths for society to take and it's a choice. I'M presupposing here that there is no end goal for humanity, so there is no obvious way to weigh the different outcomes by some higher level objective measure.

I wasn't aware of the "Ambassador" option and that changes the calculus for deciding between the different frameworks on the basis of the license, although the opaque "after approval" could mean anything and tbh gives me pause. Thanks for enlightening me.

With javascript disabled on mobile, you just get a header with links that don't work and "best viewed with JavaScript enabled" even on the official https://try.discourse.org/ site

What I don't understand is why discourse can't serve up content that isn't interactive. I get lazy loading if there are >1000 comments on a post, but for anything else, static content should be perfectly fine. Even when you have js on, ctrlf doesn't work because of dynamic loading so the site has to hijack the shortcut with different interaction patterns (pressing enter doesn't go to next result, it loads a separate page).

I just tested with the 999 comment post on that site. First page load with no cache is 5.98MB (1.25MB) and took 5.76s load time. Holding the end key to get to the bottom until I hit the last post downloads a total of 1.91MB (718KB transfer) and takes 70s! That's including all the pictures. That cannot be better than than loading all text and optionally deferring all img loads, right?

I just prefer more average city life.
