Why not allow defaults on federal loans?
From an Australian perspective, US loans are in an unfortunate middle ground where they're not dischargeable in bankruptcy and are protected by your government, but are owed to private companies and must be paid off regardless of your income.

Making them dischargeable from the start would have stopped a lot of problems from forming, since borrowers could just default, thus lowering the average education fees due to downward pressure on loan amounts, and tightening lending requirements. Nationalising loans and only requiring repayment at high incomes would make them easier to deal with - the repayments just out of your tax, are only added at high tax brackets, and lower your borrowing capacity. Sitting in the middle of the two sides is the problem.
I've never done more than scrape the large bits of food off my dishes. My current dishwasher is probably 10 years old.
Easier to blame students debts that acknowledge the general practice of land lording is the problem.
And with pilots, age comes with experiences. Every year of flying, on one hand brings closer to mental and physical decline, on another hand gains valuable flying hours. Sully Sullenberger landed the plane on the Hudson river when he was 58, 7 years from upper age limit. By that time he had flown all kinds of planes in all kinds of condition. With politicians, I view experience as net negative, like how long the fish has been rotting.
When we get another 2008. When enough people default on their debt, the government (i.e. the taxpayers) is now on the hook to guarantee these loans (i.e. bail out the banks).
I dont understand this point, Almost all (really all) SRE job postings ask for the skills covered in the posted github link here.

I can see the need for project management, ownership and processes being needed on top of the previously mentioned skills, but skills in the link are exactly what most SRE jobs ask for.

Isn’t there a tax on empty apartments?

If not, why not? If yes, why is it so low that people still do not rent? Make any property owner to actually use the property (as is the case for agricultural properties) and the prices will fall.

This realestate game is evil, not banks raising interest rates in insanely rich countries.
I'm still firmly in the "no" camp on testing private methods. By definition, anything your class does in the real world is done via its public interface; I'm not sure why I need to care about what's done under the covers.

I've actually moved further and further away from unit testing over the years (after being a pretty big TDD fan for a long time). In terms of bang for buck, integration tests across your public API are the best IMO. You're testing how your API is actually used. The problem historically has been that they're fragile to refactoring and difficult to run, but with the right tooling you can get around that.
I didn't say all or even a majority were exaggerating symptoms, I simply said that many were. Part of my justification was a number of studies which have found psychological distress over catching COVID as a strong predictor of long Covid:

I'd love to know if only in America is the interest rate on your home loan a 10 or 20 year decision. Here in Australia, and from my own experience in the UK you could secure 5 year fixed, and pay a premium interest rate to do it compared to current market variable.

The idea that for the life of <that> loan its 2% but sorry, for you its 4% forever, is totally unlike the experience in the UK and Australia.

How about elsewhere?
I did not get covid but did get the vaccines + 2 boosters. I have been feeling tired etc for the last 6+ months turns out because of the work at home etc and my lifestyle I was not getting enough sunlight and had very low vitamin D levels.

Ah classic wsj opinion pieces. Where their opinion columnists also said inflation would be transitory and we need more inflation. not less. They don’t realize the housing market in Netherlands, Canada, Australia are far worse. How come?

They forget much like their “expert Economists” like those scumbag Fed governors and Nobel laureate Paul Krugman - they had loose monetary policy for over a decade. The right time to raise rates were 2012 when asset bubbles were still not so bad, not after 2021 when finally wages started to catch up just for once. But oh no, wages can’t rise, we need to finally raise the rates now. INFLATION they screamed finally. All along ignoring asset inflation. Ever wondered why house prices aren’t part of their “hedonic inflation measure” whatever that is?

Drying Fruits (2003)
I have a dishwasher that seems to work fine, except that after it's done it's still filled with soap bubbles. The water has drained, but not the soap. Dishwasher repair person looked at it, suggested replacing the motor, but that didn't work. The repair person even called the manufacturer, but the manufacturer didn't know what was wrong either.

I have no idea what the problem is ... for now, I've been washing in the sink and drying with a dish dryer from Japan (shokki kansouki).
I absolutely never use !variable because it is not easily readable and anyone can overlook it. So I only use if value, never if !value. Also, i have moved into using comparison when there are more variables because it is exact. So I will use if value, if value == false and then i value == true && value == 5 ... This way you will never have issues for yourself, but also when working in a team. Shortening booleans was never a good idea and negator(!) has very few good uses, though still usable.
There is an old saying "When America sneezes, the world catches a cold"

An economy as big as the US pumping that much liquidity and free money into its economy will eventually overspill to other economies. Even if the spillage is tiny relative to the size of the US economy it will probably be huge relative to many other economies and in turn will cause significant overspill there.

Nordics in particular, due to strong property rights, building regulations and transparent RE market, were probably high on the list of any wall street banker looking elsewhere to invest in RE after having exhausted yields in the US.

See also what wall street indirectly did to Iceland during the great financial crisis.

I don't think housing is actually a bubble - a bubble is a situation that only exists due to widespread belief, but the current situation is fueled by real chronic problems. Namely: zoning laws that prohibit dense housing, and a widespread homeowner voting-base who vote to keep the laws as such.

The market can't adjust itself because it's not broken; everyone buys houses because it lets them avoid future rent hikes, and basically everyone needs to buy/rent a house near their job if they don't want to go broke, so there's a huge captive market.
In our foundational setup for the new https://beta.nasa.gov and https://beta.science.nasa.gov websites, we've adopted the US Web Design System (USWDS). While our other core products primarily rely on Tailwind, we are quite familiar with this toolkit. In my opinion, comparing the two is not entirely straightforward, but the USWDS toolkit has been implemented effectively, despite some of its "America First" usa-* class names.

The decision to use the same toolkit across our projects is largely influenced by the 21st Century Integrated Digital Experience Act (IDEA), which mandates federal agencies to modernize their websites and digital services. You can find more information about IDEA here: https://www.hhs.gov/web/governance/21st-century-idea.html#:~....
>Is there any merit in having UART at different addresses on different machines?

Is there any advantage to encumbering the ISA by having a fixed memory address?

If what you need is a debug console, use SBI Debug Console Extension[0].

Otherwise, get the address from the device tree, or from the pointer you've been passed by the SPL, if you are the SBI or you run without SBI.

Note that, in the first place, you will be accessing the UART registers using a register as base + an offset.

My previous post is cut short, something something computers :(

The same engine in a longer waterline may have some effect. The underlying physics is that the length of the waterline influences the wake system that a boat creates between its bow and stern wave. Those waves interfere constructively and at a certain speed, they start adding up to significant waves - the bow wave starts to pile up more and more. The boat needs to ride up the wave. Drag rises sharply at that point - so a stronger engine helps little at this point.

This used to be called the “hull speed”, the maximum speed that a hull can achieve. (It’s grossly simplistic and outdated concept, but a workable estimate).

Going beyond requires either a longer waterline or switching from displacement to planing. Some hull shapes can exceed their nominal hull speeds somewhat, but not indefinitely. Some hulls (keelboat for example) can never transition to planing.

Hull speed is a concern if you tow a small vessel with a larger vessel that can run faster than the small vessels hull speed. You can sink a boat by creating a large enough bow wave.

Those that contribute to society economically.. get a voice. Instead we now have old people taking on massive debts with a punk "no future" attitude.
It could easily be both, though there certainly is research indicating depression causes physical pain. However since many of these studies only found correlations it's only clear that they come together and not whether one causes the other. One way of isolating that issue would be to determine the rates of depression in people with unambiguously diagnosable chronic pain disorders due to a root physical cause vs both the population and the population of those who report chronic pain.
You're not wrong, but the problem is those steps are also the steps that produce food, or improve health, or solve climate change or solve any of the innumerable problems we face as a society. As you identify, there are plenty of pursuits other than finance that are not particularly socially useful - it's not a very exclusive club.
That isn't necessarily evidence of psychosomatic cause.

I have a genetic disorder that was diagnosed late in life but I knew well before I had a proper diagnosis that I had frail health. I'm cautious and worry about things that others don't worry about because history proves it's a real problem for me, more than average.
Schools don't need to be burdened with credit management, nor do they have the capability. When you take out a loan for a business, you don't take out loans directly from each of your suppliers and employees, you go to a bank who should know a thing or two about credit risk.

You should just owe money to banks -- and banks should be allowed to fail.

Right now, the only people on the hook are the taxpayers who bail the banks out.

Ok so you acknowledge it was well reasoned and you are apologising to op for saying it wasn't. And moving forward you've come to:

So many well reasoned arguments can be created so it is possible for people's minds to cloud.

I have no idea what you are trying to say here but it seems like it's not contributing anything much to the discussion. Perhaps your mind clouded before you wrote it?

you can not default on student debt, if default means filing for bankruptcy.

The parent is arguing against corporate landlords who own 10000 units, albeit a bit ramblingly.

Parent's theory is that due to renter protection laws, which make it hard to evict a renter and raise the rent, large institutional landlords prefer to leave an apartment empty for a couple of years and then rent it out at a lower rent.

There is some truth to that theory. The solution should thus be state-funded competition for apartments, driving institutionals out of the low/mid end of the market. This doesn't necessarily mean the state needs to build themselves. There could be proper tax/investment incentive regimes. But designing and managing those is difficult.

My theory is that such enterprises managed by political institutions fail because short feedback loops are antithetical to their operation. The policy is set for 3-4 years and then executed no matter what.
That's true. But OTOH, one can't easily upgrade Macs.
The GPU support in ML frameworks however is really not impressive. I have a Macbook with M1 Max 64G RAM, I can load a 7b model for fine-tuning (Huggingface Trainer, Pytorch, MPS), but the speed is just too slow, can only reach to 50% the speed of an i5-12500 CPU in my tests.
I can't help but think of the decline in phone ruggedness when Ma Bell was overruled and you could finally plug in 3rd party phones into your home ("foreign attachments")
Home loans in the US are usually fixed for 15 or 30 year terms. The positive end to it is that you are free to refinance at a lower rate should one come available to you. I personally missed out on 2.5% because I had bought the home too close to the time when the rate was available.
Depends. If you realize after they’ve gone through a whole investigation and produced a report, do you want to go up to them and tell them all their conclusions are pointless because of something you did?
Climate Breakdown Has Begun with Hottest Summer on Record
This is a good question. In my experience, I have only see exchange trades reversed when there was a major bug in exchange software. If the bug is on the client side, tough luck. And reversing trades done on an exchange is usually a decision for the exchange regulator. It is a major event that only happens every few years -- at most -- for highly developed exchanges.

Physician here. Imo CFS is best understood as the endpoint of an evolution within the nervous system that is increasingly called "central sensitization syndrome." (CSS) This syndrome is caused by a chronic dissociative or avoidant stress response, usually having it's origin in early childhood adversity. Prior to developing CFS, most individuals have other manifestations of CSS, such as IBS, chronic pain, TMD, etc. Every new stress, be it a viral syndrome, a grief event, a difficult move of house, what-have-you, can cause CSS to further evolve, eventually arriving at CFS. The average CFSer has 5 other CSS syndromes. Treatment is pacing and mindfulness. This treats the underlying issue of chronic avoidance/dissociation. See cfsselfhelp.org.
The Securitization of mortgages in the unregulated banking sector is around 15 times larger than the entire GDP of North America. This means whenever a market correction occurs, the inflationary control policies of government have minimal effect on the market.

Accordingly, "The Noorseekee (нурсики) scam is a multiple-round variant of the gold brick scam" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_confidence_tricks#Noor... )

In general, when the dust settles on the con it is the taxpayer wondering how the false equity evaporated. 2008 rewarded the gamblers, and tossed 6 million American families on the street... often forced to rent the same homes the banks extorted from other people to sell to a fund.

If you think anyone actually fixed the core problem, than you are a true optimist =)

Money makes some people irrational.
The GitHub repo is there. Branch is static_h
Agree. The core downside to this approach is pinpointing failure points. A large integration test failing can have many causes. In the same vein, technically, detailed unit tests can immediately discover these. However, in reality, having such a tight, well defined, correct web of unit tests such that any failure can be immediately traced to individual methods is unlikely and an immense amount of work.
Didn’t a similar thing happen with car prices on auto trader?
Ok, call it delinquency. You can't legally default on student debt, but functionally, those who have not and will never make their repayments have defaulted, you're just not calling it that.
I forgot to add a potentially relevant detail: garlic contains a compound called allicin, which has blood-thinning properties akin to aspirin. Intrigued by this similarity, I decided to run an N=1 experiment. I bought some aspirin from the pharmacy and tried it out. The results were astonishing — almost euphoric — and I felt like a new person.

Chronic pain definitely negatively impacts mood.

Except for phantom pain, I think it's generally best to assume pain has a physical cause and pain negatively impacts mood, not the other way around.

And I've had phantom pain. I think even there, it's likely a physical cause, but mirror therapy is still known to help for some cases.

>the near extinction of any professional discussion or capable analysis of design by the people who are doing it.

People don't think through the designs then launch a poorly designed test that can't produce meaningful results. Copy the competition, latest designs, or hope the customer can do it. It's easier to do and defend. Put in the minimal amount of mental labor required to get paid.

Not assigning blame here. These folks all work in an oversubscribed field subject to the whims and opinions of execs focused more on delivering visual appeal or feelings than usability.

It's marketing. It doesn't really matter how usable your product is if people don't want to use it. Many industries make very usable things. Notably the military. They're just ugly.

I think it is worth saying that no one saw that de-peg coming. Absolutely no one. Sure there are some crazies who saw it coming, but that same camp is still taking for the HKD-USD de-peg. It was a shock to everyone on Wall Street. I am a bit surprised that the Swiss National Bank didn't tip off their own banks before doing it. Both UBS and Credit Suisse were seriously caught off guard when it happened.

Many of his followers perhaps, but at least in the Clean Code book there is a long chapter on comments, where about half is dedicated to "Good Comments" that include many reasons for when and how to comment code. Yes, it has a section titled "Comments Do Not Make Up for Bad Code"... but he also writes about how there "are certainly times when code makes a poor vehicle for explanation" and that some comments are "necessary or beneficial" like "Informative Comments" or "Explanation of Intent" etc. That chapter is one of the few I remember as somewhat useful in the book (I am not much of a follower or fan... but I did enjoy his Clean Architecture book).

The Securitization of mortgages in the unregulated banking sector is around 15 times larger than the entire GDP of North America.

That's an odd metric to compare total value of mortgages, backed by housing assets, to the annual GDP.

Total value of all US residential homes is $44T and google tells me mortgage back securities have an outstanding debt of $24T, so about 50% of what the underlying asset is worth.

Seems reasonable?
