I’ve often got the impression that unlimited PTO is really a tool to get workers to forget that they have promised time off. When PTO is a scarce resource, workers plan ahead to use what’s available. Without knowing how much you have, you’re left to plan abstractly, trying to navigate the question of “am I overstepping my boundaries by asking for this much time off?” Thus you take less time.

Kinda odd how it's the most popular Linux desktop and you are the one that can't figure it out and also the one calling it shit and unusable.

Of course you don't shoot S-300 missile here. You use S-300 radar for early detection and feed that info downstream to Osa and AK-630 CIWS. Those modern missiles were probably too much for Osa (its missiles can't hit such low flying targets), yet AK-630 would have easily dealt with them if, and this is big if, it (its gun turrets as well as its fire control radar) was turned on and warmed up and preferably trained in the general direction of the incoming missiles in time to not lose precious several seconds that the missiles were in its effective range. This is why early detection from big S-300 radar is the key.

>Also, the Moskva was never modernized. The Slava class was modernized, with the exception of the Moskva, which was not modernized at all, and only repaired and maintained.

you're again very incorrect here. Official state news with official Navy yards PR department statement :

https://ria.ru/20200703/1573824385.html

"Как сообщили РИА Новости в пресс-службе 13-го судоремонтного завода ЧФ, где ремонтировался корабль, на "Москве" была проведена масштабная работа по ремонту и модернизации."

Granted, that normally such modernization should have included upgrade of those old air-defenses, yet they didn't do it, officially - for budget reasons. (while for example its cruise missiles got upgraded from Bazalt to P-1000 thus getting land attack capability - the context of the current war clearly shows where they put their priorities, offensive capabilities over defensive, as they didn't expect Ukraine to provide any meaningful resistance, and as it happens they were very wrong :)

The warning shot for "legimate interests" has been fired in the IAB Europe lawsuit, in IAB Europe's position as the advertising interest body which endorsed it for advertising uses: https://iapp.org/news/a/belgian-dpa-fines-iab-europe-250k-eu...

This makes me wonder about having an app on the phone that reads the contract and does this flagging for you
All good points. My own sense is that if your carry isn't too big (you are not feeling a ton of pressure to maintain a pretty big funding line) life is better all around?

My own indirect experience is not NIH, but gov lab related work. This is I think more bureaucratic because the labs have funding streams, and the key goal can be not to f it up. That might move things to a somewhat heavier compliance model.

I'm not against indirect costs rates, they are a HUGE efficiency winner to avoid needing to push paper at the individual level. That said, the system it funds is not itself that efficient.

UC Berkeley I think is going to be 60%+ indirect rate for 22-23 as a local point of reference - I don't work there though.

So if you get $400K in the door you get to "keep" $160K of it.
I'm not a lawyer, and don't know how the first suggestion would work with contracts that say things like "this represents the entire contract, any additions or addendums are void".

If the main portion of the contract says "all additions are invalid", and an addition says "this addition overrides the main contract", which one wins?
What happens if a bit is flipped in a private key embedded in a HSM? For example the root CA private key or the root cold wallet key for a cryptocurrency exchange?

> The average annual cost of infant care in California is $16,945—that’s $1,412 per month. Child care for a 4-year-old costs $11,475, or $956 each month.

$1400 for an infant, $950 for a 4 year old. And that's in _the_ highest cost of living state in the country. If you put Michigan it drops to $905/741.

> And this shows roughly $2500 in LA County and $3300 in SF County

Your link comes off as incredibly biased. In literally the second sentence it says "Black and brown people and women of color experienced profound losses of health, community, income, and business at rates far more severe than white households" There's a clear ultra-left political lean to it.

I also literally said that SF/LA/NYC are not representative of costs in the rest of the country. If you're a plumber in SF you make over 6 figures, easily. A plumber makes $80k in a random Midwest city, not in SF/LA. The state of California reported median plumbers in the East Bay made $115k in 2021 [1]. You are fundamentally trying to mislead by using Midwest wages and San Francisco costs. Not to mention that the inflated cost of living is caused by a housing shortage which subsidizing healthcare and childcare doesn't fix.

Banks in a crunch don’t look for deposits. They approach the Fed’s discount window [1].

I'm glad that you shared my view. I did come up with this shower thought myself so I always wonder whether I missed something crucial.

I am currently reading this, https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/is-inequality-ine...

It is interesting to see that even inequality is the default outcome, the natural order of things, even when we start from equality. It seem the law of physics and the law of this world converges toward inequality.

The only way to fight against inequality aggressively is to do the unnatural things, that is, to redistribute wealth aggressively. I'm not saying that doing unnatural things are bad since humans have been doing unnatural things to ease living, but I wonder what would be the side effect or unintended consequences of aggressive wealth redistribution.

This is ridiculous. People selling psilocybin mushrooms aren't going out of their way to sell you counterfeits because the profit margin is already so low for this category and you could easily tell apart shitake mushrooms from psilocybin mushrooms.

I'm sorry but you sound like Nancy Reagan right now. You are trying to warn people about something that you yourself have barely experienced or knowledgeable about by taking some other tangent item and applying it here because it is "drugs".

In the 2008-2010 recession I lost everything, I had no money, no home, no nothing. What I did not have was a victim mentality. I tried all kinds of things, starting my own company, working any job I could find, doing temp work, etc.

I worked my ass off in the last decade to improve my situation, with the help of my family.

>>(and presumably you)

Nope, self educated, The only debt I have is my mortgage for which I about 50%+ positive equity, and have an aggressive pay-down rate that will see it paid in full in a few years from now to bring myself back to a debt free status

I do feel for people that were sold the bill of goods that is debt funded education, personally I think the way to fund education is for people to enter the workforce and have employers fund the education of the employee's.

Debt, nor government financed, is the correct way.

I also do not support Student loan forgiveness, However I do support cancelling all interest on federally owned student loans. The principle however should be paid back.

>>I will say that those who have done the best financially have been those who left the US.

that seems very subjective, but the studies I have seen do not support that. The data indicates that lots of people in the US have improved financially. Most of the Pandemic relief payments to individuals when to pay down debt, or still sits in saving accounts.

You could say that regionally, "Blue" coastal states seem to have been hit harder due to their draconian reaction to the pandemic. Nationally however I dont believe that statements bears true in the data

>Planning can only get you so far when rent goes up every year more than your wages do.

I agree there, Social stigma against multi-generational housing is a big contributor. Same with child raising. Family support structures is traditionally how families moved from one economic class to another. We have more than a generation now of destruction of the traditional family...
> I'd pay $200/mo if it works and helps me achieve more in less time.

Think of fitness programs. Many would pay $200 per month for one that works. But are they willing to pay that much for each one they try till they find the one that works? The data is clear that they don't.

There is little innovation in this particular offering. Why go with this service vs other ones?
It helps to understand what employers are looking for when they advertise unlimited PTO. In many cases it's because they don't want to accumulate liability on the books for unused PTO/sick time, which they then have to pay out if you leave. They are less concerned about how much you take. (That's true for my company, certainly.)

So it's perfectly reasonable to ask for clarification about how much time off is reasonable, what are the terms for approval, etc. A decent employer will be glad to explain their policies and even put them in writing if they have not already.

Ayahuasca brews vary widely in composition, depending on who brews it.

I'd be very wary of some self-styled shaman adding datura or some other nightshade plant to the brew (which is not unheard of), and that's something I definitely want to stay far, far away from.

Unless I was brewing it myself I'd want nothing to do with it either, because I couldn't be sure of what I was getting.
This is called an Integration Clause and is meant to basically remove extra outside agreements from being considered, such as an additional verbal agreement not reflected in the contract language itself. Riders are considered part of the contract bell and exist before signing the entire contract, and are covered by the integration clause as part of the whole contract.

I have definitely observed the "we need to put little johnny in safety padding for all things" amongst my friends and their kids. My kids were free to roam (within reason) and try things most people shudder at. They learned to cook relatively young, use power tools (after many safety instructions), stay over at friends houses, be around adults talking about adult stuff, etc. They both survived and became healthy, happy young adults (21 and 19 currently) who weren't afraid to take a chance or risk a little pain; they learned that the journey is as important as the end of the trail (learning is a reward, and you'll hit painful road blocks along the way). I had some parents breathless when I told them I let my two 15/13 year olds camp in the woods by a lake over a weekend for fishing and enjoying nature by themselves, because I trusted them to stay out of trouble and use their common sense. I also know they snuck along their handheld gaming devices along with them too and got a chuckle out of their limited rebelliousness. Learn to give kids some slack and they'll set their own goals and not be afraid to go for them.

Battle plans never survive first contact intact and software never survives customer deployment intact. Especially in systems that are ever evolving.
My two cents here: I read every contract we were offered and if there is one thing I learned it’s that everything is negotiable despite how it’s presented. If you can articulate a reasonable need, reasonable people will listen. Lawyers are paid to get the most favorable result so most companies, especially big ones will give you a very lopsided first pass and will tell you it’s required. But you can totally push back. If they 100% won’t budge walk away. They WILL be trouble. Good luck out there.
Correspondent banking just seems messed up at the incentive layer... Seems like there is an incentive for banks to just credit free money into each other's accounts... Surely they can create lots of smaller (low profile) banks with accounts all over the place then use this mechanism to print free money for themselves to expand the money supply ad-infinitum. The attack surface is massive. With the same money being loaned and re-loaned across thousands of different banks, how could anyone possibly detect fraudulent currency creation (and distinguish it from genuine deposits)? It just takes one bank to act unethically in a chain of several thousands in order to subvert the entire system.

Even without unethical behavior, it seems like a small chance of human error, when applied across thousands of banks, would cause accidental printed money to leak into the system. For example, there have been many news reports of banks accidentally crediting people with 100x the money which they were supposed to receive; what about all the times when such error occurred but was not detected and did not make the news? That money still found its way into the economy and still contributed to inflation.

The problem can be simply summarized as too many single points of failure.
> it helps to improve the aggregate well being of those who participate in the fake economy at the expense of those who participate in the real economy

This is financial Luddism. Just because something is unfamiliar doesn’t mean it’s bad.

Private money creation is necessary for a growing, dynamic economic condition. (The problem is simpler in a static or simply cyclic economy.) Growth is heterogenous. To preserve price and bank stability, you want money created where it’s needed and not in excess where it’s not. In times past, this was largely geographic: banks in the West created money faster than banks in the agrarian South. Today, the divisions are more complex: a bank serving tech companies probably creates more deposits than one serving aging manufacturers.

Centralising this function in a state apparatus has been proposed. But the central bank would have to run and then implement an economic model. Decide where and for whom to create money. This is central planning. It has a poor track record. (This is also the argument against bank concentration [1].)

It feels infuriating to think AI and machine learning are becoming the future way of the road. That instead of sound logic, cars will learn important behaviors exhaustively in the name of safety.

How about instead of 1000 cars on the road guessing and sharing “neural information” we have all manufacturers agree to make future cars equipped with a standard communication signaling system. One that describes turning, speed, dimensions, all necessities for safety. Then older cars can be the AI fallback.

> People who pick just what’s attractive at the moment are pretty short-sighted and I have no sympathy for them.

What's attractive and what's viable are often two separate things. NYC is not viable for someone making $40k a year, but neither is moving to the Rust Belt where their "options" are working part-time in department stores or literal crime.

Something tells me that this is a situation that can't be won in some people's minds. If someone makes the rational decision to not move somewhere that is not economically viable, in an area that's projected to become even more unviable with time, that's not good enough for some. If someone lives in a shitty area and moves elsewhere for better career prospects, but still can't make ends meet, well, according to posts like this, they should just have moved somewhere shitty instead.

If we applied the same to degrees, I doubt you'd feel the same about all of the "short-sighted" people who chose to study trades or liberal arts at a state school and now have poor economic prospects, instead of choosing what's attractive at the moment like STEM.
