That's fair, and this is an interesting resource for evaluating bias, thanks for sharing it. And research institutes like this can definitely be used to launder oligarch policy preferences with academic legitimacy, so being critical of things like this is always a good thing.

To me, it's really interesting that a right-leaning libertarian capitalist publication would have overlapping ideas with the socialist left, so I think the discussion has merit even if the people presenting it here may be tainted by bias.
its that primary residence owners aren't the main moving forces, it is the institutional funds, pensions that rely on low interest rates to scoop up properties, and those guys are no longer able to finance debt as rates keep moving up.

if you open up a chart with real estate and rates, you will see a lagging positive correlation. during times of low rates, it is followed by a large property appreciation and vice versa.

NIMBY and zoning regulations is a bit like "if we never build and sell prices won't fall" mentality yet the same real estate markets have gone through deflation after a global real estate bubble correction (late 80s) and remain depressed or stagnate for decades until interest rates rise again.

Another backdrop is that we are at end of the road after the longest running QE (since '08) and around half of the monetary supply (top of my head) was printed in the past 2 years.

We are in uncharted waters now and if the Chinese real estate market implosion and choking supply chains is any clue, we are headed for a pro-longed global recession that certainly includes real estate.

The only safe havens have always been: art, limited production exotic cars, precious metals, gems and gold.

This is poor reasoning. It assumes there will be enough extra jobs, but there is a friction to that. Wallmart trying to staff up with more people will also not be trivial for them, and come with more fixed costs.

Obviously it would be better with a magic way to get rid of second jobs for poor workers (and stuff like UBI and JG nicely avoid these issues without magic) but it still would be win for labor.
> We would need to prioritize language learning for our kids more than anything else. We want our kids to be born here, in the US, and they will have automatically 3 citizenships at birth, until they have to choose when they turn 18. I wonder how they will feel if we constantly move around like this?

Language shouldn't be a problem. You can easily speak to your children in your origin language, your wife her's, and your kids will speak three languages by the time they're 7.

However, you should the country to stay in for the next 13 years by the time the kid is 5. Most people that grew up moving around often, breaking childhood friendships, regret that they had to.

You've been living in the US for 10 years, and it's a neutral halfway point for you and your wife. Unless she is very excited about moving to your origin country, where she will struggle to speak the language and fit in, vice-versa with you and her country, I think living out your lives in the US and giving them an upper middle class US upbringing is the best thing you can do for you and them, from my American 3rd person perspective.

Typically, you'll end up making yearly multi-week trips back to the origin countries for relative visiting with your kids.

You are in fact wrong. iOS users use DNS-based blocking through VPN apps.
This is pretty accurate as an observation I believe. "My" middle manager does a lot more and acts more like a PO/PM combination fixing things in a horizontally integrated manner, whereas most typical PO/PM roles do their PM/POeing in a vertically integrated manner, on a product/product team basis. He's very good at that and therefore far from feeling irrelevant. Instead, he's drowning in useful work.

The speed at which things are improving in India combined with the restrictions in the covid lockdown has made many rethink their current situation.

The lockdown has forced people to their homes with limited opportunities for outdoor activity especially in the winter. Things start to look very different pretty quickly.

While it is definitely hot in many parts of India, one can have access to round the year gardening, house help is affordable.
And we experience tyranny of the individual at the expense of everyone else currently. This is why businesses destroy the environment, to save individuals money (corporations are individuals as well in this context). This is just one example and not all-inclusive

The fad in question doesn't concern how closely people identify with their gender in real, normal life. It concerns their aptitude to announce their gender prior to any online interaction whatsoever.
We almost didn’t stop into the house we now live in. It was #10 of 10 of open houses on a rainy Saturday and we were just looking to get a sense of things we both liked/didn’t like. This listing had terrible photos and the building had almost no updates since 1993. We walked in and in 2 minutes knew we’d want to buy the place, in part because it showed so poorly and the sellers were motivated to close. Zillow was a thing, but nowhere near as big a force as it is now.

My favorite of these pre-Windows PC GUIs was Ashton-Tate's Framework. It was vaguely similar to VisiOn but tremendously powerful. It was coded by a guy who used to work for PARC, and was based on the central notion of a "frame". A frame could hold formatted text, a spreadsheet, graphics, or other things depending on its type; and each cell in a spreadsheet-type frame counted as a frame of its own. It was completely programmable in a scripting language with Lotus-formula-like syntax and Lisp-like semantics called FRED, and the content of any frame was easily addressable from within the language. You could also run a DOS shell, or do RS232 communications, with the input and output going through a frame of specialized type.

This made Framework usable in a manner similar to how many people use Emacs today: pulling information into frames, programmatically processing and consolidating them into other frames. FRED was powerful enough to build entire applications in this way. The word processor bit even featured a powerful outlining facility somewhat similar to Org mode. It was still a piece of office software, not a programming tool; but, tellingly, it was marketed to executives as a decision making tool, not a productivity tool for clerks, accountants, or secretaries.
Tenure does not provide much protection in biomedical research—only funding. In fact at top tier institutions tenure is almost meaningless often with <50% salary guaranteed even with a teaching load.

I think the abuses of seniority are much less than in the past—both wrt extraneous labor (hey, help me paint my house) to sexual pressures.

Re unionization—-its complex and a function of teaching load as a TA versus, class work as a student, versus your own research with mentors.

It's far easier and preferable for a manager to punish employees than reward them.

I'm really sick of this management mentality of "A good employee gets a 3% pay raise, but step out of line once and you'll get a PIP."
What I am saying is that taking a stance of assuming people identifying as male is an opinion - which is quickly become a minority stance for good reasons.

Misgendering is a huge trigger for a lot of people, and considered a "micro agression" if you are familiar with that term. This is why most people go out of their way, just like if an ethnicity says that a certain word is a slur (i.e. c-word for Asians, or even worse for Black or African Americans) then people stop using that term.

Just like a racial minority, we must in my opinion - and most other people in the US - sit down a listen to their concerns. A male dominated society has for centuries built stigma and downplayed the significance of females and non-binary folks, such that it has even spread into the language itself.
$2000 barely covers rent ( 1 br LA/SF). We’d also need rent control legislation to prevent rents from rising to absorb the UBI.

Apart from that I agree - UBI is the simplest, cheapest way to lift the population out of poverty.

The outcomes are fantastic - I recommend Rutger Bregman’s book on it.

Most large schools make most of their money charging undergrads tuition. A significant portion of undergrad instruction is done by grad students. If grad students stop teaching undergrads (or, as some have, keep teaching but stop issuing grades) the theory is undergrads and parents will threaten admin. This has worked in some cases.
The intent of current monetary policy is to get control of inflation. Today, a move might not make sense, but that math may well change if the policy proves effective.
Okay. I have an idea. Let’s see what happens if we treat…

06: 00 B5 push {lr}

… as the start of this weird code(?) sequence. It pushes the link register (i.e., the return address to the caller).

08: 42 40 eors r2, r0
0a: 00 2A cmp r2, #0

This XORs R2 and R0 and compares the result against zero. But that’s just a decoy, as we’ll see.

0c: 00 F0 02 F8 bl #0x14

This calls into…

14: 70 46 mov r0, lr
16: 00 47 bx r0

… which moves the return address to R0, and then returns. Using the addresses in this disassembly (not in the actual boot ROM), the return address is 0x10; but LR and, therefore, R0 will actually contain 0x11 because the LSB signifies Thumb mode.

None of the previous three instructions modifies the flags. (I checked in the ARM reference manual.) Thus, “BHS” (branch unsigned higher or same) uses the flags from the “CMP R2,#0” above. _Every_ value of R2 is higher (in the unsigned sense) or same as 0. Hence, the following branch is always taken:

10: F6 D2 bhs #0

… to…

00: 11 38 subs r0, #0x11

R0 contained 0x11 relative to the start of this code sequence. (The absolute address in boot ROM is of course different.) Now, R0 points to the start of the code sequence.

02: C0 7A ldrb r0, [r0, #0xb]

This loads the byte at offset 0xB in this code sequence. Look above, it is 0x2A.

04: 00 BD pop {pc}

This returns to the caller, using the LR pushed at the beginning. The return value in R0 is 0x2A.

0x2A is 42 (decimal)! Could this be an Easter egg; a very obfuscated way of returning 42, the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything? (Remember that the Raspberry design team is from Britain, same as Douglas Adams.)

OTOH, JSON::PP can tell the difference between string and number:

$ perl -MJSON::PP -E 'say JSON::PP::encode_json("42");'
"42"

You're not disagree-ing, the different "contexts" are what is the issue here. The only difference between immigrant and expat is how rich and privileged the individual is. In the past, it's been used to differentiate between white "expats" working in India, and Indian "immigrants" being used as slave labor in other countries. Whether or not its virtue-siganlling is for you to decide for yourself.
not everyone has the constitution to advocate aggressively for themselves. just because you can doesn't mean we can leave people who don't or won't to get exploited and taken advantage of. also not everyone is in a position to advocate for themselves even if they wanted to. there are a lot of people whose life would fall apart if they lost their job and the the business has all of the leverage. for those people, these regulations you hate are the only things preventing them from being sold into indentured survitude. your libertarian utopia is just like every other utopia. it's naive and nonsensical

This is definitely abusive, but it's not clear how a union would go about solving this? The CBA could prohibit it (but it's already against policy) or the union could file a grievance (students could already do this), but nothing really prevents this from happening with a union.

I don't even think the union has jurisdiction over "academic" matters like graduation. The Harvard CBA explicitly points out that academic matters cannot be arbitrated like other grievances: https://studentunionization.harvard.edu/files/hgsu/files/202...

The point was to make people think critically about the differences between Russian oligarchs and American billionaires, since there are fewer than it appears, and the distinction that most people make relies on double standards.

American oligarchs can't be removed in the same way as Russian oligarchs because our power system is more decentralized, but we do have similar mechanisms for expelling oligarchs that violate the norms of elites. Usually this means selective prosecution of powerful lawbreaking people, or people being shut out of mainstream corporate media.

This is a really interesting discussion topic that I think cuts across political ideologies.

You’re quoting a State Department policies and procedures handbook. Its not the statute or even a regulation. It describes the current “wink, wink” practice that exists—as I noted above. But it doesn’t tell you what the law means, or give H1B holders any legal rights. See United States v. Mead. And it can be changed by any administration on a whim.

And in my experience, if more than 5 people are working together to do the same thing, one of them is going to be the manager, whether you call them that or not. We do it intentionally and explicitly because that's more likely to lead to a good manager then just letting someone take charge.

If you haven't accounted for the fact that there is absolutely no way to guarantee the client has just disappeared, all you've don't is build a system on bad assumptions.

A client browser can crash, the computer can lose power, the network can be unplugged, the router can crash, the internet connection can go down.

It doesn't matter why, there are many common reasons why you can't rely on an unlock signal, so must be able to deal with that situation. If you realize that from the beginning and design accordingly, it's usually easier to handle than realizing it later and trying to add special cases to catch it later.

For example, if you know the above is a problem, you might just opt to make a lock for a record the I'd of the locking user and the last lock update time, and update the lock every few seconds during normal operation when locked. If there's a problem, that user can pick up the lock without problem when reconnecting, but if any other user attempts to lock the record and the lock hasn't been updated in a minute or two, then consider it invalid and let the new user lock. Anyone attempting to edit a record with a lock that isn't too old is told it's actively locked and to try back in a few minutes. All of a sudden your lock release problems are automatically cleaned up by normal use, can be easiest found as needed by searching for old timestamps, and the person that has to deal with problems is the person with the behavior/system causing the problem.

There are obviously more complicated (and for some cases better) solutions, but the takeaway is to look at the problem and constraints as a whole and find a solution with the right trade offs given your needs, and not let the constant accretion of small features lead you to a suboptimal solution what doesn't work.
is there a reason why this couldn't just be `nix shell python3`?

like "nixpkgs" is almost always the default, from what I can tell, so it could be omitted and simply be assumed to be the default, and not sure what the -c param does but perhaps it could also assume that the specified package(s) are also the ones to install/choose, in which case the whole thing could be like `nix shell -c python3`?

There are still world events like disease outbreaks and wars, but they're all negative and a lot aren't even worth paying attention to. So I sort of get what you mean. I have definitely noticed that most people are much more socially isolated. Economic troubles compound this by leaving people with less disposable income, and it can be hard for many to transition into free or less expensive hobbies on a short notice. The extroverted types who used to congregate at bars or festivals or sports games are now struggling to fill in the gaps created by the lockdowns last year.

These are just my personal observations, but it makes perfect sense that collective negativity colors the zeitgeist a certain way. Just find friends where you can and do what makes you happy. You can't change everything wrong with the world in a day.
One big question unanswered by the article: how effective is this design?

Normally you'd save more than just PC as AAPCS (https://github.com/ARM-software/abi-aa/blob/main/aapcs32/aap...) mandates stack to be aligned to 8 bytes for "public interface" functions. But this is is not a "public" function so it's fine to only save lr here.

"bx lr" is only used on it's own when the function doesn't call another function (altering lr), and doesn't need to save any registers.

If you see pop {lr}; bx lr then that's code that's being compiled to explicitly support Armv4 (e.g. Arm7TDMI)

These types of meetings are more targeted towards electronics whose primary functions aren't governed by software- think like an oscilloscope that runs directly off of a series of chips instead of modern ones composed of an fully virtual stack on top of an operating system. So long as said components fall within reasonable specs (analog is typically much more forgiving than digital) and chips replaced with facsimiles these units can have a second life.
