> Why do they owe it to anyone else to share what they built?

I agree with you that opinions vary around the cultural component of this. There's also many conflating factors influencing how a culture changes over time, and it's hard to avoid change. But there's an economic component to immigration that should be part of the conversation.

The only non-controversial immigrants to the U.S. were the Native Americans, since they came here first. The Europeans who came next, pushing away the natives, went on to import slaves to work plantations, enriching the south. They gave land to immigrants in the west, to secure it. They used immigrant labor in the north to industrialize, leapfrogging Britain and Germany to become the richest country in the world. Immigrants literally built NYC, the railroads, and other infrastructure like canals back in the day. One might wonder how different history might have been otherwise. Immigrants were brought over as indentured servants, then later as transport was cheaper they made their own way over, poor and desperate for work. More recently we've had Mexicans in construction, in the boom up until 2009. Economically immigrant labor built a lot of the U.S., literally.

The people making money off immigrants don't appear to care about the future of the culture, it appears they never have, not when they brought in slaves, not when they were hiring immigrants to build railroads, work in factories, or as cheap labor on farms. This is why I question the popular narrative on this topic. It's not just the rich who profit, the middle class enjoys lower prices, also. Is it fair to blame the immigrants? Why don't we talk about the economic component of this? Why aren't we doing more immigration checks at meat packing plants, farms, motels, and on construction crews?

I assume that one of the dynamics that has always been in play is that the rich like the cheap labor that immigration provides, and would prefer that the poor majority who eventually notice that they have to compete economically blame the immigrants for their problems, as opposed to blaming the people who benefited. This same thing has happened over and over in our history - the rich employ the immigrants, until the poor notice they are being screwed. Did you know that prior to the world wars there were no border checks for immigration? Passports prior to that time were for commerce only, not for people. Now it is the opposite. Money can move freely across international borders, and labor has become something to arbitrage. I predict that we'll have more immigrants as pleases those with money, perhaps to reduce inflation in service sector wages as boomers continue to retire by the millions and labor shortages continue to increase over the next decade or two. The alternative is what we have today - service sector wages increasing along with inflation. That could change the culture in a different direction, if everything in continues to became more expensive and standards of living have to go down.

I'm curious what you think about the economic component of this, and how important that is to talk about compared to the cultural component?
Mike Judge? What?
There are also a number of people who will never admit this on a public forum, but they prefer their paid job over watching their own children all day, sometimes even if it pays less.
Except that:

- I'm guessing many of the full-time people they hired wouldn't have taken an offer as a contractor and

- I'm sure the layoffs are not purely LIFO anyway.

That is 100% the determining factor in yolk color. It comes down to carotenoid content of feed.

Also, in reference to the original comment, there is no difference between GMO and non-GMO feed either.

Some may claim that high carotenoid feed results in more nutritious eggs. That's debatable. Even super-cheap eggs are packed with nutrients. It's an egg, after all. However, the nutritional difference in conventional eggs vs backyard eggs is practically irrelevant. The differential nutrient contents are not significant and come in higher quantities in other foods that we all have cheap access to.
Also hidden fees. I never know what is free through insurance and the $200 video call they'll send me a bill for a long time later.

You don't really want a small battery, even if you don't need the full capacity.

Batteries degrade the most near their limits, so a large battery that you use a small part of most of the time will live far longer than if you had a battery with just the capacity you need.

The optimal strategy is having configurable charge levels. Eg, Dell laptops allow you to tell it to only use 80% of the battery to preserve battery life when you don't need the full capacity. Then before going on a trip you change the setting and charge it fully.
I doubt there's a single trustworthy authoritative source that presents a complete picture. I'm not saying completely ignore or dismiss what the police say, but consider it in its context as one piece of information, published by an organization with its own needs and biases, rather than the single defining instance.

Police definitely lie a lot, and invest significant resources in outreach and PR, which we would straightforwardly call propaganda if someone else was doing it. The motivations are probably more complex than just what makes them look bad. And the mechanisms are probably more sophisticated than simply publishing completely false data in a report.

> Also do you really think the police intentionally misreport numbers that make themselves look bad?

But basically yes I do.
I would guess that some people are disagreeing that this particular service is seen by most purchasers of it as a commodity.

Others are probably disagreeing because they're conflating "market" with "free market", and this sort of service has a bunch of constraints from all sides.

Tesla Makes US the Focus of Battery-Making Efforts in Blow to Germany
This doesn't lower the costs, it just causes all taxpayers, including childfree adults, families with a stay at home parent, and families with older children, to subsidize the cost of childcare for those families where all adults are working full time. You could even hypothesize that this extra tax burden ends up being enough to force some stay at home parents get a job and put their children in childcare, creating a vicious cycle.

That's not obviously bad, but we should talk clear eyed about whether that's the right social contract to enter.

In the mid 00s or so I would have said that movies were getting shorter. If anything, movies are getting longer again.

But there is no general relationship, direct or inverse, between the length of a movie and the quality of a movie. Some movies should be short and some movies should be long. It really depends on the movie in question.
My wife and I started a vegan diet 6mo ago and while there was a transition period, it wasn't nearly as difficult as I expected.

If you're feeling the egg prices I'd encourage you to find ways to limit or remove eggs from your diet. It's easier than you think! Egg replacers work wonders in baked goods and a tofu scramble is similar to scrambled eggs.
When the iPod came out USB 2.0 had just been created. USB 2.0 wasn't in widespread use for at least a year or two after.

USB 1.1 was 12mbits/s -- that is 1.5MB/s. Firewire was 400mbit/s.

Accounting only for bus speed, filling up a 5GB iPod would have taken 54mins[0] for USB 1.1 vs 1.6mins[1] for Firewire 400.

[0] 1000MiB/1024MB * 5000MB = 4,883MB / 1.5MB/s = 3255s

[1] 4,883MB / (400mbit/8) = 98s
The hours of a public school day are generally about two hours shorter than the average workday, not accounting for commuting time. There is still a need for before and/or after school care for several years after after the child enrolls in school.

230 would be okay if the user had the ability to choose the algorithm that determines what content that user sees.

That was one of the early ideas for Twitter when Musk took over. Could even have external, independent “filter providers”.

Then the user a chose what bubble they want to live in. Or none at all, if they are brave enough to see opposing opinions.

But if the web site decides the algorithm for the user, well, then the web site is the same as a newspaper or TV channel.

I'm not saying this is right for you or anyone else, but I just use a repo with some ansible / terraform in it. The repo has a CI job which runs the IaC and jobs done. Kubernetes does have a few tools which take this out of your hands but I guess the trade off is a few scripts you have to manage vs the complexity of kubernetes.
>Are they aiming to make a point about how fetal-personhood doesn't work with many aspects of the law?

Possibly. But the point has already been raised many times with regard to child-personhood and the courts have generally solved that by tailoring their precedents so narrowly as to not preclude future case by case decision making.

Demonizing price gouging has nothing to do with resiliency. Corporations run things as lean as possible at all times because it's not a good gamble to keep a lot of stock of perishable items for the once every couple of decades shortage in your specific item.

I’ve had both many times, and with Soylent I experienced the exact same problem you’ve described. I tried to go “full Soylent” in college and I could drink 3000 calories of it and still feel hungry.

A couple of years ago I tried Huel Black and loved it. It’s way more satiating, healthier, and I actually enjoyed the taste. Unlike Soylent, it actually feels like food. I look forward to having it for breakfast each day.

My favorite flavors are Coffee Carmel and Chocolate. I highly recommend Huel Black over the regular Huel. Steer clear of the Cinnamon Roll flavor.
How can you share AirTag through family? I never found that option. All AirTags are being treated like individual unshared devices.
See, I used to think like this, that I have social anxiety. But as I've grown older and participated in more kinds of social situations over the years, I've learned that I don't, actually, have social anxiety problems; I love socializing, I think even more than average (the pandemic social starvation taught me this lesson).

What I have is a personality, which means that I have a set of preferences for my interactions, just like everyone else. It's fine that some people prefer group meetings, and it's fine that I prefer documents, chats, and 1:1s. We're just different people with different personalities. What I don't like is the group-meeting-preferrers seeming to believe that their preference is normal and my preference is aberrant. I find that condescending. I'm happy to accommodate other peoples' preferences, but I don't need to change my own preferences to align with theirs in order to do so.

> Having a specific time for it makes it easier for people to do.

Again, I don't relate to this. I agree with you that it makes it easier for some people to do, but I'm not in that group of people. My point in this thread is that people are different.

> So it's natural to say "Looks like I'll be getting into the foobar system today; who worked on that most recently?"

It is much more natural for me to say "`git log`, what have people been up to in this system recently?". I prefer to read text than listen to verbal explanation. I also don't usually want to be offered help without being asked, I just want to go read and work.

Again, I'm not at all saying this is the one true way, but please believe me that I just have different preferences that make status meetings less interesting to me (and I think a lot of other people) than they seem to be to you (and many others).

Which was the second round of layoffs? The two layoffs (arguably): the first round in November, and then the flattening (which I agree will likely see managers quitting rather than becoming ICs).

Got Garmin stock?

I'm not in the habit of accepting homework assignments from randos on forums, but:

Garmin bike head units went from rock solid and reliable to deeply sketchy and prone to losing sync, losing rides, and just flaking out around the same time (roughly the evolution from the x00 series of devices to the x10, e.g. 500 to 510, 800 to 810, etc). This was well documented in industry press, and a super common observation to make in the cycling groups I ride with.

Ten years ago, it was nearly a Garmin monoculture on the rides I'd do. One by one, my pals got pissed off about how flaky the devices were getting, and that led to a drastically reduced Garmin footprint.

Now, Wahoo has a demonstrably bigger presence, and Karoo/Hammerhead is creeping in, too. If Garmin had kept their quality up, that wouldn't have happened. GPS tech was theirs to lose.

> Baumol's cost disease.

I don't think wages in the childcare industry are increasing noticeable relative to wages in other sectors. As a person mentioned elsewhere, other factors such as rental prices and insurance probably add more to the cost than wages.
I've spent a lot of time over the years trying to think up the perfect analogy for software development and I've never quite found one.

It seems like they all tend to break down but cooking is ok for some parts.

To that end I see these conversations as

"never use stainless steel to cook a hamburger"

"never use cast iron on a food truck"

"Always use an crock pot for soup"

Especially for startups it just doesn't matter that much. Use whatever you know how to cook with. If your DevOps guy can deploy kubernetes into AWS managed with GitOps designed by GitHub copilot and ChatGPT in terraform in 40 minutes and manage without waking up in the middle of the night...that's fine.

Or if you have a die hard linux admin who wants to buy servers on eBay and host them in the basement and do hardware updates at 2am...that's also really fine.

Stackoverflow literally uses windows servers.

These are all just different methods of cooking. Sure we each kind of prefer our way and insist it makes the food come out best, and sure there is truth to that at a point - infra does eventually wind up mattering.

But mostly we're just nerds arguing about what brand of chef's knife we use and that sort of thing.
I worked with a daycare on a building project, and I saw how amazingly expensive childcare is. The teachers are paid what many would consider to be barely a living wage, but property costs and especially insurance were substantial. The owners did it our of their love of doing it, not because because of typical financial goals.

Yes, they could raise their rates, but if they did, many parents would have had to go elsewhere. It was a balancing act to charge enough for the quality they wanted to provide while also being able to be affordable for the community they served. Most teachers were younger, and did not last very long (two years at most).

Producers already refuse to build new capacity for temporary demand because if that demand slows after the temporary problem goes away, they are stuck with newly purchased hardware that they can't use without flooding the market with more product than demanded. We saw this with face masks for quite some time. It has become very obvious that "let them price gouge so it incentivizes producers to increase capacity" doesn't work.
>All that gets me is friends

Are you signalling that you’re looking for friends or partners?

IME women don’t react well to crudeness or excessive directness but with a silver tongue you can flower up “hi I’d like to escalate” and as long as you are clear (by ‘clear’ I mean with an amount of sexy deniability) then that will act as a quick filter.

Plus it takes cojones, which women also enjoy (IME YMMV IANAW)
The idea of Indian workers in tech getting more representation sounds a little silly. I don't know the breakdown of percentages per caste, but it would be interesting to see if they are still each massively over-represented vs. other groups. The only way it would make any sense would be at the expense of other castes (which I also don't really agree with either, since in a way it is just reinforcing the caste system by relying on it as a criterion/metric), while also reducing Indian representation as a whole
