The effective purpose of a UBI (why the ruling class likes the idea) is to constrain risky tendencies of a highly financialized economy that depends on a large supply of dirt cheap labor without too much inflation.

With UBI, gainful employment will be an elite luxury only accessible to those with existing wealth. Everyone else will be a reserve army of cheap labor that serves to bare the weight of the financial ebbs and flows of the mighty dollar in the global market, similar to the function of America’s current lower class, but intensified. Rent prices in rural, small city, and slum neighborhoods will be saran wrapped to the UBI amount, and escaping those areas will be practically impossible because rents in the cities will be affordable only to the elite.

In other words, sure, you’re probably right.

Pairing is only helpful when you are new and learning from someone more experienced.

However, it may be a time-sink for the more experienced person, who could be using their limited time on more critical things.

That's why newbies get assigned a mentor, with whom they can pair freely.

But pairing rigidly with the whole team just sucks and is incredibly unproductive.
> “The full treatment, including surgery and chemotherapy, can reach between $8,000 and $10,000 for a dog or cat.”

Meanwhile, full cancer treatment for a human can easily cost 100x that, because care for pets is a free market and care for humans is very far from it.

I think solving the lack-of-display problem is far easier for FIDO/TOTP than GPG, as with GPG you could be signing arbitrary content that is difficult to validate on a small screen.

But FIDO/TOTP data are more structured and can be coerced into being displayed on the device's screen, as shown in this video [1].

The same thing happens in developed countries like the US too. It's just done a different way: We have high end grocery stores and low end grocery stores, and ones in the middle, each catering more or less to different social classes.

If you are really low on the totem pole, you may have no grocery store.

Although they differ in the quality of food they offer, there is significant overlap also, which is priced differently.
PNAS, in case anyone is not aware, is the journal where members of the Academy of Sciences publish research they can't publish anywhere else for various reasons.

Customers are always free to leave. Nobody is forcing someone to pay for spotify so your argument is absurd on its face.
In which case the people who disagree with JRE can... simply stop paying for Spotify.

But that's not enough. In their ideal world, I would be not allowed to pay for "misinformation" because their position wouldn't be limited to Spotify. Spotify is really just a pointless implementation detail.

That's absolutely a fascist attitude. They actually think they and their club know better than everyone else, and their best argument is apparently along the lines of "well you're not a doctor either".

No, it doesn't; in states that have expanded, it covers up to 138% of the FPL, but in some states for adults without dependent children who are neither aged, blind, disabled, nor pregnant, it covers nothing, and for parents of dependent children the limit is still not 138%.

I don't think it's true that pairing is only helpful for new people learning from someone more experienced.

But I also think it will be difficult to convince you otherwise if that's what you believe.
Why would you doubt that? You think I just don't know what I'm saying? You don't have any evidence, but your first instinct is to distrust...rather than be curious and learn more?

I mean, do you have any proof it's not like that? Like...do you even fact check your question before you ask it? You think it's OK, to claim so confidently that what I'm saying is wrong, and questioning my reasoning when you've clearly missed the point and not done your research? Like ... what's that about? Because I introduce the modal "I heard" then you, smell blood? and think...hmm, they must not be sure, so I'm gonna attack that even tho I don't know? So, commenting and truth is all about posturing and signaling rather than facts? for you... really?

It's incredible how much "flawlessly confident sounding rebuttal" is based on nothing. Don't you feel shame to leave that comment hanging there (i mean I guess you do because you're using a throw)? I mean it's not about truth this kind of comment, is it really a valid thing to do? You feel good about it?

I just find it so funny and surprising. Obviously what I'm saying is not just about your comment, it's a whole pattern I've seen for ages. Your comment is an example:

Here is the link (actually, linkS), to your "straw" (hahaha~~ unless you consider yourself a bigger authority on open source than opensource.org):

- https://opensource.org/faq#restrict

- https://opensource.org/docs/osd#fields-of-endeavor

- http://cardozolawreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/GREEN...

Why should I, in order to rebut this comment, go looking for evidence of it, rather than you doing so? Why not just trust? And if you don't trust, and you don't know, why not just do it respectfully and curiously?

edit: I probably should have condensed this to like: "You say it very confidently, but I don't think you know what you're talking about. This is point 6 of OS definition. Link: ", but I basically just reply like I'm talking aloud. I'm working on more condensed replying in future...

If we assume that most studies that get into Nature Neuroscience are NIH R01s, which have a cap before you need to start fleshing out the budget in exacting detail of $125,000 in direct costs per year, and we assume a 50% overhead rate...

We get $937,500. That's not far off, and center grants, large cooperative agreements, etc. probably give the distribution a decently long tail.
I checked total return price of VTI (which basically reflects the performance of the entire US stock market), and it's up 43.5% from the peak of 2020 (some time in February) to the date of the article. The article seems to be measuring household wealth rather than stocks, so it's plausible that the difference in measurement is off, but "> 50%" and 43.5% is close enough that it's not "extremely misleading".

I find it difficult to argue for absolute speech freedom when people are dying on ventilators or poisoning their grandchildren with ivermectin from misinformation. “Yelling fire in a crowded theater when there is no fire” sort of thing.

There is no expectation or obligation of free speech on a private platform. Censorship arguments ring hollow when outright lies are weaponized and causing measurable, real harm.

Funny, I found shop vendors from some Arabic cultures would almost become offended if you _didn't_ barter with them -- at least if they knew you weren't just a tourist. For the (American) tourists wandering through they'd suck it up and just charge them 10x the price. ;)
While you're right, bear in mind, the worldwide population was 1/8th what it is now 100 years ago. That would mean, on average, worldwide, using naive metrics, housing cost would be 1/8th what it is today, even adjusting for inflation. One thing to keep in mind, the population in the UK at that time was very high, the population replenished back to pre WW2 levels only in 2017 and that includes immigration that didn't exist back then, so it wouldn't have been 1/8th for her, only slightly less. But all in all, housing costs worldwide would've been significantly less back then.

Surely the trauma of homelessness itself is a severe mental health issue.
When evaluating principles, the trick is to extrapolate from each principles what society would be like if they were followed.

The first one “Our principle is that people who stab Ed should not get a heart, therefore David should not get a heart.” means that there is no rehabilitation for ex-cons, that doctors have the power to condemn people to death based on their past by refusing a life saving procedure and that in the case of new research like this one, doctors cannot have access to the best candidate.

Extrapolating the second principle means living in a society where the judicial system decides the punishment and people pay their due afterward, potentially reducing recividism. It means that when doing an experimental procedure that requires very specific candidates, the doctors have to pass on an ideal candidate delaying discovery.
> So, yes, you are absolutely right, technically I have been mispronouncing it for almost two decades.

Tim Worstall said it better than I ever could:

https://www.timworstall.com/2011/03/peter-wilby-really-reall...

snippets:

Average wages in an economy are determined by the average productivity in that economy.

Individual wages are not set by what that individual does: but by the wages paid by the next possible alternative use of that individual’s labour.

. . .

Finally, as Marx pointed out, wages rise to meet average productivity, not wages falling as cheaper labour becomes more productive. This happens because capitalists compete for access to the profits that can be extracted from that labour. As the labour becomes more productive more profits can be extracted and the competition means that wages are bid up.

. . .

All of the things that we consume, now being made by these cheaper providers of labour, become cheaper, thus our real incomes rise. Their wages, now that they are becoming more productive, rise. Our wages on average, determined by our average level of productivity, move in step with our productivity, not the changes in the productivity of others. And our labour can go off and do those other things which will satisfy yet more human desires and wants: another way that we get richer of course, for satisfying two or three needs and desires instead of only one means that we are of course richer as long as we define wealth in any rational sense at all.

Customers also are free to tell Spotify they aren't happy with the service before they leave. And then its Spotify's choice to either make their current customers happy, or try to welcome new ones to replace their cash.
> preferred Apple because people there have more “fire in their belly” and a bias toward getting things done rather than availing themselves of benefits and treating work as a retirement home.

I would guess this has more to do with Apple’s cohesive product line creating a laminar flow of ideas through the environment versus Googles emergent order out of turbulence. I worked at the MV campus for a spell and all of the campus ‘bennies’ cognitively evaporated within a month or two. The only thing of durable appreciation for me was the shuttle service.

Probably, It is used in things like NetworkManager. Which is used by almost all desktop environment.

In these desktop environments. Polkit is used to gating any remote process from accessing network state related functions (or anything that are not supposed to do remotely).

For example, you can use `nmcli` on the desktop or system termional(Alt+f1~f7) to disconnect the network or change to use other pppoe even you are not currently root(not using sudo to elevate the permission).

But if you try to call `nmcli` through ssh? No, No , No, Polkit will gate you from doing so.

Homeless. In medieval times, everyone was poor, and one person's life had no value to another. In modern times, I can be relatively safe from violence and predation, recieve shelter from compassionate strangers almost anywhere, get medical care for free with government benefits or through the emergency room, and if I'm really doing bad, go to jail and get three hots and a cot. Sounds vastly preferable to dying by 40 from being a violent thug and living in a dirty tiny cold hall.
> it was paired with real-time tutoring by a remote human

That is not really true. The remote human only provided the voice. Miranda the character who ended up reading up the lines for Nell most definietly had no input into the direction the fictional story she read up had, nor she had the sophistication or the situational awerness to be considered the tutor.

The fictional technology has this strange twist that the AI in question can do the hard job of individualised training and emotional support, but can’t do local voice synthesis.

Just an example of what I mean to those who didn’t read the book: The fictional AI tutoring technology was manufactured for the educated grand-daughter of the CEO of a tech company. A copy of this AI gets to a poor, illiterate young girl who is physically abused by his step father. The AI manages to deduce this situation on its own and adapts to the changed circumstances (a situation which is lightyears away from the one it was developed for). It starts to teach the girl to read while also teaching her elementary martial art and survival skills. The AI on its own also decides when it is time for the girl to run and escape from the troubled home, knows how to evade security drones and etc. These are all conveyed through story beats in the fictional story read up to the girl by a remote actress true, but the remote actress (Miranda) is just a passive voice. In fact she suspects through the lines she has to read up that there is a girl somewhere out there who is in trouble, but she doesn’t know anything about her or how to even find her.

So no, in short this is nothing like “remote tutoring” as one would understand that.

‘they hired a live-in maid for £36 ($2,600) per year’

It should be noted that in those days low-wage workers might spend half their income on food.* Presumably as a live-in maid her room and board were provided, so her compensation was not as low as her salary alone might imply.
