In the USA, I would like to see laws limiting whom, and how much realestate a person can accumulate.

1. You need to be a citizen in order to buy realestate.

No more wealthy guys buying our land with an email. No more homes siting empty, or filled with illegial.

2. Wealthy guys can only buy two, or three at most.

3. Outlaw corporate speculation in realestate, like Blackstone.

I feel #1 is something that should have been outlawed years ago.
Use the money saved on maintaining an office for peak capacity and pay for travel/temporary space.
I disagree. I think the best solution is giving your employees flexibility. People who want to travel into the office can do so. People who want to work remotely can also do so. And people are able to come in as often or infrequently as they want.

There will always be instances where fully remote people might still want to come in (eg someone leaving social). And there will be reasons why people who normally like to come in every day might chose not to (eg a doctors appointment at lunch time).
I don't know what you're on about. It's been over a century, since economists adopted a subjective theory of value, according to which value is that—subjective. As such, we don't try to explain it, because it doesn't matter. You may think something is valuable because it's useful, or because some other reason. It makes no difference, and we don't care. All we care about is how much you are willing to pay for it. This tells us everything we need to know.

> that long-term inflation expectations are not just interesting but are a decisive determinant of real-time inflation

I think economists neglect to include an obvious factor: people are greedy opportunists. When inflation first get reported on (in some tangentially related sector) the most opportunistic and greedy businesses jump at the opportunity to bump prices.

When less opportunistic (but still greedy) businesses see one of their suppliers bumping prices, they follow suit and it quickly gains momentum.
I suppose that a good DAC is necessary to emulate the imperfections of the original, still. The audio outputs on the Pi boards aren't bad for the same reason the MT-32 output is.
I first parsed this as my-core-mediation.
This has always been the case. Economists are great at explaining the economy in retrospect - oh if demand rises we'll see extra supply. Oh except the suppliers can predict peak demand and won't expand to meet unsustainable demand causing a shortfall in supply even under excess demand. Sure, it sounds obvious, but actually predicting it rather than observing it is what's valuable.
> Interception against an actively manoeuvring target is a question of kinetic energy. If the intecepting missile is smaller all the hypersonic missile has to do is zig-zagging randomly and you're toast.

What you're describing is not a matter of kinetic energy (clearly if it were about kinetic energy, this would be defeated by making the interceptor weigh 30 tonnes) but a matter of transverse acceleration. On that matter, as far as I understand it, current AAMs/SAMs are somewhere in the 50g region. I strongly suspect that hypersonic vehicles due to their lower L/D are nowhere near that -- hell, many of them seem to have a hard enough time flying straight, if US military's experience is of any relevance here.

Also, due to low L/D ratio in the high Mach region, if your missile is zig-zagging randomly, it won't stay fast for long. And if it's not zig-zagging randomly, then the question is how it gets the information how to zig-zag, since the nose of a hypersonic vehicle seems to be an extremely poor sensor platform -- which you admitted yourself. It's virtually certain that it won't be able to see the interceptor.

> The issue isn't the IR window, it's the air directly in front of the interceptor missile, which has to target from the frontal aspect.

It seems unlikely that the interceptor will have to fly at a comparable speed in a frontal aspect interception situation (considering that it doesn't need to catch up).

But as for terminal interception, I suspect that here the inverse-fourth-power-of-distance operation of an active radar homing solution might help you if all else fails -- at a small enough distance this will work even better than the inverse square applicable to passive optical/IR detection.

> would be unable to resolve any detail about the missile, so it would have no way of telling the difference between a missile and a flare of the same brightness and color.

It would seem that the easiest way to distinguish a flare would be to look if it's in a controlled flight? Unlike a flare, the hypersonic vehicle will continue flying, and the difference is readily apparent. Besides, you can't have that many flares on it, so you can't keep firing them continuously -- again, the only thing that's available to you if you can't see the incoming interceptor.
> if anybody is using an alternative shell as a daily driver and getting considerably more out of it?

I wrote my own. Originally motivated by the fact that bash doesn't handle `$VARWITHSPACES` correctly (if I want expansion, I can write `$@VARWITHSPACES`), but I get a surprising amount of mileage out of random features shoved into corners of the substitution syntax like:

$ factor $@m/[0-9]+/$[(1<<15)-((2*$0)-1)]/q'1 2 3'
32767: 7 31 151
32765: 5 6553
32763: 3 67 163

(`$q''` produces a string, `$@m/regex/pat/` finds matches in it and expands `"pat"` for each with $0,$1,... set to captures, and $[expr] evaluates match expressions.)

I think maybe your home is too small. Sounds like you don't have a separate study or home office.

Well, I dunno why the others are applauding, but I can tell you why I am: I have a study at home that is private and closed off from the rest of the house.

In effect, there is no bleed-over of the workplace into my home.
I don't think it has a hibernate mode, but it has been a quite a hwile since I've downloaded the latest headless server build.

I am currently reading 428mA at 5.0V on the power supply that is driving it. It is headless and I'm not interacting with it. (400mA w/ethernet unplugged). So that's 2W. I'm running Buster Debian build. If you got a low power command, hit me with it and I'll try it! systemctl doesn't support hibernate. I don't do any low power linux programming mainly because Cortex-A class processors (heck, even M7's) are already far outside my power budget.

That is a crazy amount of power, compared to the InnoPhase T2 that draws ~300 MICRO Watts when connected and sleeping.
Because, like everything else in this country, this discussion is super polarized. I am with you in that i actually enjoy my commute. Without it, the days blend in a very unsettling way.

> Government regulation is different because it forces everyone (...)

It really isn't. It just stops unscrupulous employers from abusing their employees. There are already plenty of tech companies that went full remote, and clearly they don't interpret that as a competitive disadvantage.
The lockdowns also showed productivity increases and improvements in the quality of life and work/life balance. Therefore, returning to the office has absolutely nothing to do with productivity or company culture or dedication. At best, it's just lazy thinking enforced by strong-arming employees into positions that is overwhelmingly against their personal interests and quality of life.
Usual comments about whether people prefer WFH or not. It doesn't matter. We need to stop driving cars so much, and most American cities have lousy transit.

I began a 100% remote job almost four years ago. I decided that being remote was worth maybe 20% of my salary (as in I’d take a 20% paycut if that’s what it took to keep working remote in a future job).

It’s honestly closer to 50% now that I’ve been doing it for years. It completely alters what having a career and raising a family is like. You’d have to give me a boatload of money to go back to the office because wow does that arrangement steal so many invaluable memories and times with my family.
It is politicians that keep insisting the job of the army is to get Afghanis to read and adopt liberal values.

Peacekeeping is not popular in the army, for good reason. They are there to fight wars, not deliver social programs, build nations, or referee conflicts.

If using language like "warfighter" can get the politicians to lay off on using the army for things other than fighting wars, then the clumsiness of the phrase is worth it.

I suspect, though, that this is just more corporate-speak infiltrating the military bureaucracy.

I think this is a reason NoSQL became so widespread. If we stored every piece of data relationally, databases would have an insane number of tables, resulting in huge numbers of joins, and coupled with the difficulty in running migrations, would become unmaintainable.

Every data model is shoehorned into the relational model via normalization which involves a ton of judgement calls about how the data will be used at the time the schema is defined. And then this becomes extremely difficult to change.

It’s a big trade-off between schema flexibility and performance.

I’ve always felt we would be better off querying at a higher level (say the logical db schema) and then the physical db schema is managed for us behind the scenes. But then there is also a further level up at arguably the purest representation of data as triplets, which is why Datalog is called out so much.
Thrust is not the issue, the issue is net thrust. Essentially the missile/engine is compressing so much air that trying to get more air to produce more thrust doesn't work, you have to manage to increase efficiency, by increasing compression, without melting or blowing apart your engine

Once you manage to make significant net thrust making a bit more isn't that big of deal, it's really a critical point you have to pass.
This isn't in the relevant domain.
Sorry about the pipeline link, it's ALL REPORTED INCIDENT 20 YEAR TREND on this page: https://www.phmsa.dot.gov/data-and-statistics/pipeline/pipel.... I don't know if amount transported by pipeline is going up.

I appreciate your optimism. The downward trend in amount spilled is nice to see, but that value is unknown for nearly half the entries, so I wouldn't read too much into it. I'm not saying it's impossible that things are getting better, I even think it's likely, but it's certainly not at the same level as airplane safety, where everything that can be done is being done and crashes are incredibly rare. It is trivial to find examples of the oil industry failing to do the bare minimum (here's one recent report, the first thing I found: https://www.gao.gov/products/gao-21-293). I'm very comfortable stepping on a plane, but I would not be comfortable living next to a pipeline or making a living fishing next to an oil rig, and I think the statistics back up my feelings.

> Current FAANG engineer here. I totally disagree, and the numbers support my case. My organization saw a jump in productivity when switching to WFO accompanied by a considerable increased in job satisfaction.

You're moving the goalpost on this. For me, as someone else stated, the separation between home life and work life is a bit easier with a commute. That's not touching on productivity, overall job satisfaction, or anything else.

I'm not even talking tradeoffs here - there's no "I prefer to work from the office because XYZ". I prefer working from home, for a variety of reasons. However, I do recognize that in this one specific area - separation of work/home life, the commute was beneficial.

Were I to list 50 pros/cons of working from home (which I've done), the winner is WFH. That doesn't mean an absence of positive aspects to the "work from the office" column.

Council tax was never meant to be anything like property tax and was structured specifically to act in a different way.

For example: councils don't actually set their council tax rates by band. They set one rate which is the Band D rate. The rates of the other bands are then set based on fixed %s from that rate and the highest English rate (H) is only 200% of the Band D rate.

The value of the lowest valued band H (based on the 1991 price levels) property relative to the highest band D is 3.6x. So right away we see that as a % of property value the typical household (D is the most common) in any given place pays more than the highest valued local properties. Of course it is also the case that band H is open-ended.

There is then the fact that these are set and collected exclusively locally. That means that some of the lowest council tax rates in the country are in some of the richest places. Westminster and Wandsworth have Band D council tax in the £800s, Blaenau Gwent is over £2000!
London earns millions every day from office workers coming into the city, paying for food, drinks, and other local services. It's not like us commuters are draining money from your local economy.

This Week – #4 OKRs and Dual Roles in Product Management
What hardware/software was used by the editors of the magazines which this Mac appeared in?
I went carefully, line by line, through the first, real, half of Rudin's Real and Complex Analysis.

All the writing I've read by Rudin is very precise. Sometimes a reader might want an intuitive understanding of what is going on, and for this after reading carefully take some time out, look back, and formulate some intuitive views. Right, in Rudin's books I've never seen a picture, but there is no law against drawing ones own pictures.

But for that subject, call it functional analysis, I also learned from Royden's Real Analysis, a little from each of several other books, and the lecture notes from the best course I ever had in school.

Overall, I liked learning from Rudin's books -- I'm glad to have such high quality math writing. But Halmos is my favorite author. And when they cover the same material, I like Royden better than Rudin. One of my main interests in that math is as background for probability, and for that my favorite author is Neveu.

Sorry about the OP: For me, the Riesz representation theorem is a very old topic; I covered it quite well in the past, don't want to go back, and am doing other things now.

For anyone who wants the Riesz theorem, in Rudin a nicely general version with a precise proof is on just a page or two with, say, a few more pages to get ready for the theorem itself.

Decrying radical statements is not a radical act.

The economy, back when it was on a gold standard so that the money supply was more constant, tended to show a strong boom-bust cycle. The bust would lead to bankruptcies and unemployment. I'm not sure if this counts as "working perfectly" or not. These days, central banks flood the economy with money if there's the slightest hint of anything going wrong, so that interest rates have persistently tended to zero and even below.

A capitalist economy is based on government intervention, in any case. They provide all the enforcement of contracts and property rights, and do some wealth redistribution, especially helping people who can't survive from what the market provides. Without the latter, it seems inevitable that the system devolves into a few winners and many losers, and such a system will eventually be overthrown by the losers.
> In any large company, the team you're negotiating comp with is almost entirely unrelated to the team you'll actually be working with

I've a few data points on this, and disagree. Hiring Managers (and their managers) have to approve and signoff on things, and VPs are needed for major deviations from the norm. Yes, the HR team can do many things but it's all done in conjunction with the hiring manager.

I distinctly recall talking with one of my GM's one day about a new start. The discussion was, "I'm excited for $person to start, but I'm really worried (s)he's a player of games. The negotiation process was non-stop angle-shooting, and please keep an eye open for actual work vs politics."
