So far they've just been enforced against companies that use Google Analytics, but the reasoning behind it has been that having users connect to a US server enables that server to know EU users' IP addresses (which are legally PII), which would be subject to US government subpoenas to collect such, and the US government has not agreed to handle data in compliance with the GDPR, therefore it's illegal to have users connect to any US servers. It has nothing to do with "hoover[ing] and hoard[ing]" data.

The only way for an American website to comply would be to form a separate company not subject to US control at all. However, at that point it's not really an American website, since no data or control can go to the US.

Theoretically you could use some international service to handle all primary routing and get users to waive their rights under the GDPR before connecting to your website proper, but I'm not aware of such a service at this time.
Yes - but you can be assured they won't be Germans - so no policy change needed!
Why isn't that already reflected in the price? Surely FX traders (who are mostly very large institutional investors) have already factored this into their models since it seems a very important factor?
I already said this elsewhere, but I do want to reply to this comment, because it demonstrates a common mistake that may not be clear from my other comment.

If you have a given teacher, in a given classroom, with a given amount of TA help, blah blah, so that all else is equal, and then you reduce the class size, the students will do better.

The problem is that all else is far from equal in the data used in these rankings. Instructor quality drops off rapidly as you have more sections. TA help falls. The classroom may no longer be appropriate for the class, etc.

The rankings are not able to capture the effect you're talking about.
Build a strong network now. I was a freelancer for a lot of years and it was hard. Even with a ton of experience, connecting with clients take a ton of time and energy. You'd think it would be a no-brainer, but so many companies don't want freelancers and those that do it is often because they can't really afford you. So many of them want to nickel and dime over price and hours and waste your time.

The people I saw find real success in freelancing / contracting / consulting had deep networks, often of former employers, where they were basically "perma-temps".
>Satiety is a mental construct.

Yeah, just not according to science.

E.g. there's ghrelin, cholecystokinin and other "satiety signals".

Except if you mean "satiefy is a mental construct" the same way pain is a mental construct. In which case, in a Kantian way, everything is, including space and time.

>What your brain tells you to put in your stomach is almost entirely divorced from nutritional requirements for thriving and surviving.

(a) You'd be surprised.

(b) It only appears that way because we have diverged in a exteremely small span of time (evolutionary speaking) into completely different circumstances and food availability.

Otherwise, what the brain tells us is very much based on nutritional requirements for thriving and surviving.

It's just that in 2022 we have an endless supply of food we can just order or walk into a supermarket and buy, as opposed to food scarcity where we don't know if we will be able to find something to hunt tomorrow - like the last 100,000 of thousands of years before historical times (and millions of years considering our primate ancestors)...

>Let's consider the alternative of a world where AirTags didn't exist: The stalker probably would have followed her around for 2 hours, and she likely wouldn't have found out until a physical confrontation.

With gymnastics skills like that it should have been you getting a from the president this week. Really though, AirTags are another till for stalkers and Apple alerting her after 2 hours didn't prevent someone from physically following and eventually confronting her. And the digital stalker knows the potential limits of a system, so they know if their target is an iOS user, their worst case scenario is they have 2 hours for whatever situation they are looking for to arise, whether that's secluded isolation or what-have-you. And if the target is not an iOS user, you know, some people clearly don't value their own lives, so why should anyone else.
It's not. The Euro is getting weaker at a rate faster than the US dollar.
Don't think of the US as having foreign exchange reserves. Other countries have foreign exchange reserves, basically all in US dollar-denominated instruments.
The Euro is getting weaker, faster. There's a war with Russia. And apparently some monetary policy changes are moving too slowly.

The newsworthy aspect of this is "broad, sustained protection". The parent comment directly questions this, and it's a very reasonable thing to ask; particularly with recent events showing a questionable job at it.

If you make a claim for a new solar cell technology that doesn't degrade over a century, people can question whether that claim is true or not, without implying that solar technology should not be researched.

And there's certainly no need to speculate on people's intentions, like questioning if someone is making excuses for big oil.
The US has energy, food, and most of the business inputs it needs.

The Eurozone is facing war and an energy insufficiently.
And it merits stating the obvious: In turn, employees and local suppliers suffer a worse quality of life as their salary loses buying power.

Inflation redistributes wealth from people who earn and save in local currency (lower and middle class most impacted) to benefit those who deal more in foreign currency (upper middle class, rich people).

Any inflation above the stability rate, produced by monetary policy, is government thievery plain and simple. I say this as an exporter who financially benefits from local currency inflation.
Not surprising, given the crazy inflation in EU in some countries. I know US also has inflation, but do far it looked (to me) much worse in the EU.

>What's their model? Are kids in the states now looking at more global options ?

According to their methodology[1] page, it looks like for student who gets multiple offers they do an Elo style ranking. The first problem; and which probably explains the weight to military academies, is that students tend to self select into tiers of colleges, so a group of students who are interested in the Air Force might not even apply to Harvard (even though the USAFA is a competitive school) and upon admission opt to go there (after all if you even were even considering of joining the air force, why would you reject your one shot there to go any other school)?

What does it mean to be supply constrained? The simple definition means you don't have enough supply to meet demand, but that's too simplistic a definition. Supply constraints can happen for two reasons. The supply curve can shift (i.e. a decrease in supply), or the demand curve can shift (i.e. an increase in demand). The Fed's 0% interest rate, coupled with unprecedented government stimulus, lead to a huge increase in demand. So yes, technically, we are supply constrained, but we are supply constrained because of an increase in demand caused by government policy.

Just an example, as part of the CARES act, congress allocated 800 billion for PPP loans that were supposed to go towards payroll. Now the Federal Reserve finds only 25% went to employees. So that was basically an unnecessary infusion of 600 billion into the economy over a really short time window. And that money went to people who already had plenty of money. Is it a surprise why the housing stock is so low?
American companies funded by leveraged debt are specifically, exactly paying that money in large amounts to remove any GPL'ish things in their stack. Some other hardware companies are simply failing to comply by the license - catch me if you can, I guess. If so much money is available as "someone else's money" and there is some vague notion that ownership complete is the mission of profit-seeking .. then why not? but what does that do to the value of the work, and the value of the ecosystem, built as GPL?

I'm one for marking the occasion, but let's actually wait until it's there.
I think it's easy to underestimate the impact of rankings. Just from your description, it seems that one of the most important overall decision factors for you seems to have been some sort of vague personal sense of how you'd rank them. That subjective ranking is probably influenced by a lot of factors, including many rankings that you consciously claim to disregard.
> but did nothing to erase the fundamental feeling that all of reality and my actions within it are pointless

There may not be some cosmic teleology for your life, but that doesn't mean it's pointless; it just means you have a clean slate for deciding what you want that point to be.

I think embracing the absurdity of existence can be liberating.

> What is the legacy that you want to build for your kids?

I think for some it's worth challenging the need for a "legacy" in the first place. This certainly is what helped my well-being, not feeling like I had to accomplish X or achieve Y for life to have been "worth it." I want to be kind, stay fed, and help others feel like things are OK which can be done through service both big and small. I guess it's about finding larger meaning in the smaller interactions vs. larger artifacts of legacy.

I'm not entirely in love with how I've represented my thoughts on this, but hopefully the meaning is conveyed.
I think this is why in part some successful artists, once they live in expensive mansions and have already gained access to every luxury, completely lose perspective in life and get into substance abuse, addictions, etc.

If I'm understanding you correctly, you're saying that the rules of Stratego let you apply an abstraction rule which drastically simplifies the game. I agree you can do this. I think this point is remarkably similar to the technique of blueprint abstraction.

Of course, we ought to be focused on the situations which lead to these nice situations - which leads us back to the imperfect information situations which lead to those positions we can reason about.

Interestingly, you can invert your point and get a similar rule more generally. The trick is to backward induction on the abstracted category transitions. So your point is actually so valid that is valid even in situations where your examples don't apply. I hope you can see I'm strong manning here. I agree with you that this should be done and is critical to making things tractable.

There is an issue though, at least in the generalized case, which is that perfect information is much easier than imperfect information.

See, in perfect information games when you do the backward induction step you actually just flat out solve the game. Meanwhile, in imperfect information games, this backward induction step merely makes solving the game more tractable. Chess endgames are the backward induction version of your forward induction from the rules abstraction, but the abstraction rule is so hard to determine we wouldn't usually think of it that way. Notice that chess is hard enough that we don't have endgame tables that go all the way back to the start of the game? Yet the average game length in Stratego is hundreds of moves longer and there are more then double the number of pieces.

I still think your point is right and someone who pushes hard enough in this direction would manage to tackle the complexity. So I basically agree with you. But if you take standard approaches like counterfactual regret minimization and throw it at the game without adjusting them for the fact that the problem is "hard" then they just wont terminate.
A Euro isn't exactly one dollar, it just rounds to 1.00 to 2 decimal places.
The revealed preference rankings use co-admittance data (student got into Harvard and Stanford) along with that student's final choice (went to Stanford) to rank the schools. The military academies will have a huge edge because their decisions come out later and most students are highly committed once they continue their application to that point (they've gotten congressional recommendations, passed physical exams, etc.). So basically throw those out.

They weren’t in charge of energy policy. In Germany for the last 16 years. They had completely different policy ideas to what was actually implemented.

Inflation is just as high in the EU is it not? It's probably the flight to safety effect.

Monetary policy is shifting, Fed has said they will keep tightening until inflation is back to 2%. For whatever reason a lot of people keep betting on a pivot. I don't see this happening, even if the end result is a recession (may already be in one). Inflation continuing to rise is ultimately worse than another recession if the Fed pivots.

> Can’t heat with nuclear. Not in a way that’s relevant for this, anyway.

Are you able to expound on why this is the case? Are you specifically talking about furnaces that use some kind of oil being very common in Europe?

Also, in an emergency situation, can't nuclear be used for heating, albeit through powering things like space heaters rather than the normal furnaces?
Not so much: the distinction you're talking about, of how much the FBI would actually have had to do to charge their sting, is I believe what attempt liability (and, really, inchoate liability in general) is all about (this comes up a lot in child sex stings).

What seems more likely is that the murder-for-hire thing is messier than the broader, abstract things he was charged with, and they had him dead to rights on that stuff anyways. Without meaningfully contesting and refuting the murder-for-hire stuff, it's relevant conduct for the sentencing; it did the work the DOJ needed it to do.

The big issue in these discussions is the idea that the murder-for-hire stuff was prejudicial --- that it wasn't a part of the case, but was allowed to hang over the case to taint the jury. But that's clearly not true; he was indicted for it, twice, in the SDNY case.

But isn't the end effect the same? End result is euros are being dumped for rubles by EU nations themselves.

Once the euros are converted to rubles, it's unlikely they get converted back into euros somewhere else in the supply chain. As opposed to USD, which facilitates 87% of world trade.

That means net selling pressure on the Euro.

As others already pointed out, the nuclear exit strategy was decided upon under Merkel's conservative government.

Some added information so: The Green party pushed for an exit of nuclear power as part of a social-docrat government. This exit eas actually pretty well worked out and planned. When Merkel took, one of the forst things was to throw that rather good plan out. Only to revert that decision, hastly at that, after Fukushima. That second nuclear exit, the one Germany is currrently going through, was hastly done, ill planned and rushed.

And lastly, nuclear power does exactly nothing to compensate for reduced gas deliveries. Germany, as in deed a good portion of Europe, is heating with gas. And not nuclear power or electrical.
