it's a matter of taste. I think the realism is funnier because it's more shocking and visceral. like dead baby jokes and dark humor in general. dead baby jokes aren't funny when you replace the babies with stuffed animals.
The speed of light is a limiting factor, but most models I have seen of galactic civilizations take that into account, yet they project that interstellar expansion of a hypothetical civilization is possible.

There are other factors that are more likely to explain why we are apparently alone: civilizations might not last long enough that they would encounter us before dying out, or that they have not yet emerged. IOW we might be alone in time more than we are alone in space.

This is a good observation. Constant employee turnover also reduces worker productivity, as it means most current employees are juniors in their role (regardless of what their title says).

Which translates into productivity. If something is standard, digital and transferable it means you can increase the rate of output in relation to its input (which is the definition of productivity).

So much fun. What people may not remember was that there was a tremendous amount of competition back then. You had Borland and Lotus and many others, and the future wasn't set at all.

There were crazy entrants like Omnis 3/Quartz which had you select statements instead of typing them! So you would pick out "if/then" and then fill out the expression.

Anything you did provided incredible value, so that people were really happy. I was getting into VB right about that time (roughly) and you could build apps so quickly -- and not to replace a solution, but to create the first solution.

This is amusing as, 10 years ago, my wife (a decade-plus under 60, even now) showed up to a consultation with a doctor who remarked that she looked very good for someone over 60 and who suffered from a series of conditions that she did not have but showed up in "her" medical records.

The history of that EPI report is useful to know. Early versions of it showed a large gap between rising productivity and stagnating employee compensation.

Some critics then pointed out problems with the analysis [1]. The report performed an apples-to-oranges comparison of productivity of (A) all non-farm workers adjusted over time with a (B) GDP deflator-based inflation index compared with the compensation of (A) a limited subset of employees adjusted over time with a (B) CPI-based inflation index. A more useful comparison would use the same inflation index for both data sets and would exclude from the productivity measure the workers that are also excluded from the compensation measure. When this is done, the growth in productivity and pay rise and nearly in lockstep, thus effectively refuting the majority of the point that the original report was trying to make.

Since then, the EPI report has been updated to be more nuanced, which can be especially seen when one expands the 'click here for more...' sections. The new conclusion from the report is that productivity and compensation increases have been increasing primarily for a subset of workers while a broad subset of workers have not seen large productivity and compensation growth. This is true (as far as I can tell), but it's also a different story with different policy implications than the original story which implied diverging productivity and pay within the same set of workers.

It appears you’re redefining the word “metaverse” to mean social media. That’s not the same metaverse that everyone else is talking about, which involves putting on VR goggles and zoning out from the real world.

VR and social media are absolutely not the same thing. One takes over your sensory inputs and 100% of your attention. The other you can do on your phone at the same time as other things.
Yeah so, the anti-"fire in a crowded theater" people are right, in the sense that the analogy was dicta in an overturned case whose actual "clear and present danger" test is no longer the standard (specifically, the case held that handing out flyers protesting the draft for World War I was not speech protected by the First Amendment, a laughable proposition today).

The replacement standard instead excludes protection for speech that is both "directed to" and "likely to" "incite or produce imminent lawless action," and these things are construed quite narrowly.

So: it's a bad analogy that was never the actual legal test, doesn't match the current test, and references an overturned case. But that doesn't mean it's actually legal to knowingly falsely shout "fire" in a crowded theater intending to cause a panicked stampede (though note there's more detail about intent and knowledge given there, and there would be other questions).

To a certain extent, trying to stop people referencing this really doesn't matter, though. If you got all the country's internet commentators to talk about "incitement to imminent lawless action" instead, they'd be in all likelihood deploying that phrase in the same places they currently use "fire in a crowded theater" or "clear and present danger." Eliminating this one analogy isn't really going to move the needle on people's understanding of what the First Amendment protects, but the phrase is both enduringly popular and a bugbear of the kind of people who care about this stuff, so the arguments and corrections will continue.
Are you so sure? They are similar reasons, at least in part.

Oh, point acknowledged here, but I don't care. The city seems pretty uninterested in keeping them off off the sidewalk and private property. I am not interested in being diplomatic now since the city can't decide on anything and we have had to clean them off our property and sidewalk time after time. I also have property in other cities and this is not an issue in the metropolitan resident rich areas. Atlanta leaders seem particularly helpless, careless, or just inept to do the needful here.

I am tired of the litter on our property and sidewalks in our part of town where people pay a premium to not have to deal with this sort of thing. If you don't live in Midtown, you don't have a right to complain. If you rent, you don't have grounds to complain. I do, so I can complain and I will.

I would encourage folks to carefully read the article and give a mind toward the word “police” in the headline. It can have a variety of meanings, some of which include powers like arrest and imprisonment… but some of which don’t.

The U.S. government has long served as a clearinghouse for information, for example by funding the CVE list of vulnerabilities.

There is a difference between flagging likely disinformation to publishers for their private option to act, vs sending federal agents to arrest private citizens for the content of their speech. A program to do the former is not necessarily a slippery slope to the latter; the First Amendment still exists.

Put another way, there is a difference between the government acting as a participant in the conversation about disinformation, vs the government as the violent sole arbiter of what constitutes disinformation.
What I'm doing is putting how you describe productivity into the form from the original comment. And I'll stand by that last version: How much money changes hands off of how much workers work?

The input to labor productivity is how many hours are worked, correct? And no one is measuring output in terms of the number of bowls of soup produced by homeless shelters; those are converted to dollars based on a current index price.

So you have economic activity, how much money changes hands, compared to labor inputs, how much workers work. Simple?
I don't know the particular circumstances of those sanctions, but all of these opinions have been widely disseminated on Twitter. Exactly none of them have been suppressed, as a quick Twitter search would immediately reveal.

I understand that the feeling that conservative/reactionary ideas are suppressed has been an important myth in conservative circles for at least a century (to varying degrees), and that opinion itself is one of those conservative notions so prevalent on Twitter, but as a statement of fact, it is very easily disproved.
Ironic because an accurate portrayal of the news would illuminate actual atrocities/genocides that American news sources generally don't cover.

Had they, from the OP's perspective, the genocides that might have happened, have happened. We just don't cover these things.

Examples being considering the Korean war a genocide due to the mass assault on civilians, The right wing coup in Indonesia that led to a million members of the Communist party to be murdered, the current blockade of Yemen that has contributed to the deaths of 85,000 children.

Because of how Media in the US already serves a national security interest, these things are either not spoken about, or twisted to make the US be the good guys.

So to say that mainstream media accurately reporting the news would lead to genocides is silly, because the inaccurate news through the filter of natsec, helped these atrocious acts by leaving them in the dark.

Companies absolutely have fixed hiring budgets and salary guidelines. It's not that surprising to me, though, that if they don't have to share that with an external recruiter they will choose not to. You're probably on a percentage of the final hiring salary, so why would they tell you the max salary they're willing to offer? Your interests are not aligned.

The way it works in most companies that are big enough to have, like, distinct departments for HR and finance, is that teams have staffing budgets that are set out quarterly or annually, and if the team is expanding they will set those numbers to be big enough to cover the cost of the additional headcount they plan to add. Then the HR organization will probably have a compensation policy, which sets out ranges of rates for particular roles by level and geography. So your budget for a role lines up to certain job levels you can afford to hire at.

So by the time you're writing a job description looking for '5 years of react experience, located in NY' or whatever, you're pretty much narrowed in on a salary range that depends on 1) what your HR compensation guide says is the minimum compensation you pay for a level N software developer in that geo, and 2) the absolute maximum of your staffing budget allocated to the role.

If you can't turn that into a salary range for job advertising purposes, you're not a serious business.
>There is no law that gives the government power to restrain speech.

All government actors are subject to the constitution and criminal and civil statutes. If they violate them, they can be charged even in the absence of a statute that says they can commit said violation. See Derek Chauvin and the other officers who recently were convicted of violating George Floyd's civil rights.

>Where do you see the government restraining speech?

Censorship. At the end this ends up in censorship. Instead of this terrible fights for having the official truth, why not educate people to not believe absolutely anything that has no shown proof?

Why so much secret and "it is for your security"? When I go to sign a contract I want to know everything upfront and later choose.

All in all, it does not convince me at all the increasing efforts to be able to spy absolutely everyone, control all the information flow...

For example now in Europe they censored RT and Sputnik bc they are "russian propaganda". I do not say it is or not. I just say that if we are democracies we should not be censoring, but warning people. If we do not do that, then we are the same thing as the people we point fingers at.

> The productivity plunge is perplexing, because productivity took off to levels not seen in decades when the coronavirus pandemic forced an overnight switch to remote work, leading some economists to suggest that the pandemic might spark longer-term growth.

We're talking about a 4% change? That's the "plunge"? When it spiked during the pandemic, they were ready to conclude that it would always be like that, forever and ever, if not continuing to grow higher and higher? Both these positions are ridiculous, given how small the differences in both cases are, and how squishy a measurement productivity is in the first place. "If these trends continue, nobody will be doing any work in twenty years, and we won't even be able to tell you about it because we won't be working either!!!"
Nice. I can roughly understand it though I don't quite understand why inner product has a transpose in it (assuming you use are using the symbols per APL).

Check my understanding: IP = distribute `+` across an application of `*` across all transposed elements.

If your vectors/arrays are just arrays and column/row vectors are shape conventions then there is no need for transposition. Right? Unless you have some sort of checks for shapes
Truth may be truth, but marshaling it out of the past and into the present courtroom is a lossy operation no matter what we philosophically believe.
No, it's down to companies exploiting lack of regulations to get away with as little as possible ("free market"). Ideally they shouldn't be assholes, but failing that, local authorities should restrict them.
Having once worked in the EMR/EHR space, a big thing to consider is some companies come in with their own workflows, processes, and ideas that they want to push onto physicians while other companies are way more accommodating in building "bespoke" solutions to specific problems.

The latter in my experience ends up providing better results to physicians as they have been employed as domain experts in building the software solution to their specific workflow. I've seen it done for in ophthalmology, specific disease/injury specific radiology, and diabetic specific checkup and appointments where I've seen as much as a 75% reduction in the amount of time the physician has to dedicate lookup up info, cross-referencing, and documenting.
It's not really necessary (though it might be helpful). For important accounts (financial, mostly) there will be a policy and process for granting access to the estate upon presentation of acceptable proof of death.

A credit report will identify any open credit accounts and those creditors can also be instructed to provide payoff information and close the accounts.

The main thing you will need to handle the death are lots of certified copies of the death certificate. One per account, generally, and copies/digital scans are not accepted.
> And if you do that, Twitter then becomes a 280 character 4chan/8kun-like platform.

4chan is a forum. Everyone who browses a 4chan board sees the same posts. For that reason, these boards are moderated, but apparently not heavily enough for the tastes of some people, to whom for 4chan is the epitome of horror.

Twitter is a platform. Everyone who uses twitter decides who to follow and who to block. Everyone sees different tweets.

Twitter for a long time had almost complete freedom of speech. It described itself as the free speech wing of the free speech party[1]. In that time, it had fewer rules then 4chan. But to use twitter did not feel like using 4chan, unless you decided to follow the kind of people who post on 4chan.

There's still a fairly large job market for medical transcriptionists, but that's a different job than being a medical scribe. Transcriptionists don't use shorthand any more, they mostly work from digital voice recordings. And they're typically not transcribing from scratch; now usually a voice recognition system does the first pass and then the human edits it to fix the ~2% errors. Transcriptionists don't usually work directly in EHRs, but their documents are fed into EHRs.
Not sure how you can say 'x86 is the way to go' for the next 10 years given how much progress Apple has made with it's M* processors over the last few years. Sure, Apple keeps all of it's processors to itself, but if they were able to do this over a few years, others surely will be able to as well.

Most other European countries also have excellent public transport networks. It's not just Switzerland.

It's certainly true that China has done a tremendous job developing their country, but it seems that just how much they really developed it is partially based on lies. They've exaggerated their economic growth for years, again because it's an autocracy and nobody dares to present anything less than the best economic growth figures. I saw an estimate recently that the Chinese economy is probably 60% smaller than they claim, and the same is true for many dictatorships.

Because that is a feature of all autocracies: they can't afford to admit failure and therefore always present a more rosy picture than reality. It's why propaganda and control of the media is so important to them; they can't afford independent voices reporting what's really going on.
I’d say it’s an incentive problem. Not many employees get extra pay if they’re individually more productive.
