> what they really feel ripped off on is the lack of academic freedom that was promised as part of this training

Where would this idea be originating? I think that would be one of the first things I would tackle, because anyone making a claim of academic freedom for grad students to just research whatever they want is spinning a tale. Students with this perception are being lied to, so we should first address the following disillusionment by dispelling the notion of academic freedom during Ph.D. research exists.
I need more free time from my work responsibilities so I can think about this very scary question with the gravitas it deserves. Can you give me a day off?

FTFY.

There is plenty of basic housing. It just happens not to be where people are looking most of the time.
I’m backtracking the debate here so feel free to ignore this.

I just watched the latest Technology Connections video about heat pumps[1] where he talks about the total energy savings in replacing gas stoves with heat pumps to provide residential heating, with total energy savings up to 5 times. This goes to show my previous point about how “[w]e don’t need to replace carbon power 1:1 if we patch up the inefficiencies of our current energy use.”

So to answer your concern that:

> Electrifying railways and other transportation is going to increase electricity usage, not decrease it.

All else being equal, yes. However we are not going to replace the energy consumption 1:1. Electrical railways have the potential to be far more efficient in the energy use. Especially if you consider the potential increase in traction allowing better track usage which will pull super inefficient cars and lorries from the road and onto the tracks.

Also a minor correction:

> So assuming that electricity consumption is going to decrease is a very dubious prospect.

No, I don’t assume that. However I am hopeful that we can easily decrease our total energy consumption as we electrify. Meaning that if we are still pumping gas to put into our newly electrified infrastructure and consumer systems, there is a potential that we need to pump less of it for the same benefits because of how much more efficient these new electrified systems are over the old fossil fuel powered ones.

I suspect that the third point is an attempt to address the first. A company with five hundred employees is (in theory) better able to absorb this cost than a mom-and-pop with ten people on staff. The exact number of five hundred is probably arbitrary, though.

Exactly how much are you willing to be coerced to put food on the table? Because that's what we are really looking at here: Employers having power to coerce you into lifestyles and coerce you into things just so that you can put food on the table. Laws protecting employees (most of us!) are there because employers didn't simply treat people well, and people had little choice if they wanted to eat.

And I'll point out that you might be a grown up, but you live in a society. Simply taking care of yourself isn't enough, not only because other people are obviously doing things that benefit you greatly. You know, like treat patients in emergency rooms and uphold wiring standards so your air conditioner doesn't burn your house down, and even if it does the fire department puts the fire out without even forcing you to sell it for cheap or show proof of fire insurance.

You couldn't help where you were born, nor did you have a choice in your own primary education, nor whether or not your parents were rich or poor. You might be responsible for yourself now, but you don't fully take care of yourself, your starting level got chosen by others, and you are at the mercy of the actions of others, which can greatly affect your day to day life.

> Wouldn't we attribute this more to COVID, though?

It's been my anecdotal experience that hot areas in other cities like New York and Chicago are not dead like SF and the East Bay are. Nor are they as sketchy - I'd feel comfortable walking around Millennium Park at night and be pretty confident I wouldn't get robbed. Can you say the same about the Embarcadero?

> hypothetical poor economy due to businesses leaving because of employee-friendly labor laws

Tons of small businesses are dying out and you think the poor economy is hypothetical? Just because Chipotle and McD's can afford to pay every surcharge CA/SF imposes through labor laws doesn't mean small businesses can afford to. It's ironic, because despite all those surcharges the suburbs are still more affordable for a low skill worker than SF is, primarily because the supply of housing is so much better.

2 coffee shops in my local area have closed down recently for good. Starbucks is still going strong, but that doesn't mean the local economy is vibrant.

> I saw plenty of tourists/shoppers in the Powell/Market area in the middle of a weekday last week, out and about, doing their thing

Hmm, I went last week on a weekday and I'd put it at 50/50 homeless/beggar vs tourist. Powell St. BART/Union Square area. In any case, it was certainly a lot worse than a few years ago when it would be more like 95% tourists. I saw multiple homeless sleeping in Union Square which would have been unimaginable 3 years ago.

you are meeting lazy parents, which is sadly standard nowadays, my kids 4 and 6 never used tablet and phone (ok, I let them press button occasionally or they can stop alarm clock or timer when I have full hands, but their total use would be in minutes, I occasionally show them their photos/videos or picture of something we talk about), they watch children tv shows on TV ~45mins before dinner and 1-2 kid movies on weekend.

Yeah I've got lazy with the TV but I still feel their use of technology is healthier than at most of the people/children since everywhere I look people just put phones/tablets to hands of little kids and still get them hooked at early age, let alone potentially ruin their eyesight development.
We have a problem where approved = mandatory for Medicare to cover, so that even if you are willing to independently pay for whatever special medication or treatment you want to take a chance on, letting you do it would mean (because of poorly-thought-through regulations) buying one for everyone with the same condition whether it turned out to work for you or not. There's an enormous incentive for regulators to act as doctors, deciding what to prescribe, rather than as safety testers keeping obvious poisons out.
So Google would need to build a discriminator that detects machine-generated content. It will be interesting to see these discriminators fight the generators of other big companies.

I'll be taking a front-seat row watching that show, if it happens. Perhaps in the future, we'll have to deal with discriminators that approximate some originality-index. Will be fun fighting with those algorithms, to interact with the internet as a normal user (to some extent we already do - proving that you're human is becoming more and more tedious.)
I have now been living in the happiest country in the world for more than a decade.

As an Indian kid growing up on Cartoon Network, I was quite envious of western kids with skateboards and actual skate parks, tons of toys, gizmos and game consoles.

Once you start knowing people well, they start opening up about their past and I have come to realise 3 out 4 of them, pretty decent well educated people have had to struggle with alcoholic/abusive/loveless parents, addictions of their own, depression.

I just realised even though things were pretty bad in terms safety (traffic), sanitation, health or access to simple things like telephones or material comforts, most "middle class" Indians grew up in pretty safe social settings.

Somethings like safety has certainly improved substantially, but certainly some like alcoholism has grown exponentially bad.

"New hours are from 7:00AM until 12:00 Noon" seems like a really poor choice of time. I know plenty of people who are into electronics who'd be more likely to show up if this was from midnight to 5 am (not suggesting that that would be a good time, just that this time seems absurd when you're targeting geeks and maybe extending it into the afternoon would be a good idea).
We've also seen significant anti-union legislation in recent decades; at the very least this would need to be undone in order to give workers a fair shot.
Yep, hierarchy comes from religion (hierarkhia, "rule of a high preist"). Traditional capitalist hierarchical organization is just one of many potential hierarchies, so definitely it could be improved. But hierarchy is ingrained in culture, and culture is probably the third hardest thing in the universe to change, after genetics and cancelling your gym membership.

Mine has my workouts on, which vary 'as needed'.

https://darebee.com/workouts.html
When I had a train commute in the before-times, the one thing I really leaned into was the train ride home. It was about 30 minutes. I used that time in a variety of ways - reading, podcasts, napping, meditating, drinking-a-beer. I let my mood dictate, I intentionally didn't over plan it. Just no work. This naturally let me slide into the non-work/dad/husband version of myself. More often than not, this recharged me, and I'd be in a good place when I walked into my home.

I admit to struggling with this with the pandemic and full WFH. I'd find myself working early and late, answering emails after hours that I really didn't need to, etc.

My solution? I bought a super cheap treadmill for my office, with a stand for my laptop. I don't really run on it. I get on it in the morning and walk for 30 to get my day started, 30 at the end to close it down. I think I still do a little too much work during this time, but it's generally prep for the day, pruning my todo list, checking out tomorrow's calendar, and so on. It's not the same as the train, but it's a lot better than having no boundaries.

At that point they'll probably just have their own AI that generates the perfect response to any search query, and return it as the top result.
It's not the "lack of interest in aesthetics" the problem in high modernism, and the author doesn't say so. It's a lack of interest in lived/organic/patina/messy-because-of-life aesthetics, and a tendency towards pure/empty/conceptual aesthetics.

I often wonder if Bush would have been reelected if the U.S. was not attacked. There is nothing like "war" to bring a country together.
This doesn't work in all US markets unfortunately, as I discovered recently when considering that very option you suggest. In some slower towns a few agents are willing to do this on the side as a source of income, but then in places like SF the home buying market is so hot, that it's comparatively bad ROI for agents to spend any time on most rentals. I'm curious how NYC manages to pull that off.
Not uncommon for grad students with supposed "good" stipends in high cost of living areas to be only taking home $2300 a month or so, where rents are probably $2200 a month now for a 1br apartment. What do they expect grad students to do? You almost have to share a bedroom, which imo is ridiculous for a job that requires a B.S. where you might quite literally be designing multi million dollar scientific experiments.

By "people who are anti-union", do you mean "people who believe unions shouldn't be allowed to exist", or "people who believe unions shouldn't be allowed to force workers to join as a condition of having the job"?
The weight of the object is not its mass. The weight is the force an object experiences due to a gravity. You have the same mass on the Earth and the Moon, but you weigh 1/6 of your weight on Earth on the Moon because of the gravitational force is 1/6th the strength of Earth's gravitational force.

The definition of mass is subtler, but you seem to confusing units with the definition of the concept. Units are necessary because you need a scale to measure physical properties. You can't measure a length and say that it's "ten". You needs units attached like feet or meters. An eV (electronvolt) is a unit of energy. Just like a kilogram (unit of mass) originally was defined as the mass of a 10cm x 10cm x 10cm cube of water at room temperature, the eV (unit of energy) is defined as the increase in kinetic energy of an electron (which has a fixed and known charge) accelerated across 1 volt. But neither the definition of the kilogram or the eV define the concepts of mass or energy, they just merely define units, which humans chose, used to measure mass or energy.

Now how does mass and energy relate to each other? Simply put, the Special Theory of Relativity, developed by Einstein in 1905, states that mass and energy are equivalent to each other. Now the word "equivalent" has a precise but complicated meaning that I will not explain here (if you do want to understand it, take a course in special relativity). This relation is defined quantitatively by E=mc^2 (Energy E equals mass m times the speed of light c squared). Let's first look at another relationship, distance = velocity * time. This equation can be be rewritten as distance/time = velocity. If we use meters to measure distance and seconds to measure time, we can "divide" the units and define the units of velocity as a meters per second or m/s. Same thing with E=mc^2. We can rewrite the mass m as m = E/c^2, and let the units of mass be eV/c^2. Using eV/c^2 or kilograms or whatever to measure mass has no effect on the definition of the concept mass itself (which you can think of as an intrinsic property of objects independent of units which affects their behavior in known ways).

Why do physicists make all of this so complicated? They don't. It is reality that is subtle and complex and hard to understand. Because the purpose of physics is to describe reality, it has to be subtle and complicated.

Generally people who come via work visas are likely to be better educated and will probably be ok if they have to leave. While the immigrants who tend to come illegally are doing so mostly out of desperation (economic or political).

There’s also not much interest politically to make it easier for Indian immigrants specifically. For folks who have already immigrated, they have a “I got mine, fuck you” mentality, while the people in the process itself can’t vote and influence political decisions. The community of Indian Americans is also not large enough to have extensive networks similar to that of immigrants from South/Central American nations.
