If one’s view is that Atlas Shrugged constitutes a novel at all — rather than an objectivist manifesto rattled off by “characters” with all the inherent humanity of damp toilet tissue — one’s perspective is so ludicrously narrow that all I can prescribe is anything whatsoever by Gabriel Garcia Marquez and call me once the fever breaks.

But, yes, Rand’s turds do appeal to those poor enough financially that they didn’t receive a rich and broad education and poor enough intellectually that they couldn’t give themselves one.
It's the same in US
I'm not aware of Illinois law, and maybe it is different there. (Edit: As of now, , I see no evidence this is a special Illinois law, instead of being the US law discussed below. I continued the thread because maybe someone can show a citation.)

US federal law says that tipped workers cannot be forced to share tips with untipped back-of-house staff unless the tipped workers are paid normal minimum wage. In which case all non-supervisory staff can be added to the same tip pool.

It does not matter for the federal law if the "normal minimum wage" was legally required or optional.

As for orthogonality, the question was "is the first $6.80/hr of tips subsidizing employer wage obligations". If the server is getting more money from the employer but the chef is getting more money from the servers and less from the employer, it's just an accounting change and the total takehome pay of waitstaff, chef and management/owner remains the same.
The important distinction is between operation latency and operation rate. Modern I/O devices are highly concurrent and support massive throughput. A device can have millisecond latency while still executing an operation every microsecond. In these cases, the operation latency doesn't matter, your thread has to handle events at the rate the device executes operations. If it is a million operations per second then from the perspective of the thread you have a microsecond to handle each operation. Context switch throughput is much lower by comparison.

In these types of systems, you may issue a thousand concurrent I/O operations before the first I/O operation returns a result. Threads don't wait for the first operation to finish, they keep a deep pipeline of I/O operations in flight concurrently so that they always have something to do.
DSLR and mirrorless do mostly that. The RAW file stores the number of photons that hit each photodiode. It’s phones that take these liberties.

Samsung and Google in particular are not concerned with capturing the moment as it were, if you can even say such a thing, but an idealized (and pasteurized, perhaps) version of it.

The thing is, it’s often what most people want. I think there’s no turning back.
I see a rendering of a vague apple in front of me, slightly up and to the right of my center vision toward my peripheral. The alpha is almost 0, but if I focus on it, the alpha turns up to maybe 0.02 and I can see low-resolution details. I can change it's color, scale it, rotate it, slice it in half with an imaginary knife, etc.

We bought a new Honda Fit for $18.5k in 2014. It was a full redesign with nice improvements compared to previous model years (reverse camera, bluetooth audio, etc). Since then we've averaged 33 mpg with zero garage visits outside of routine maintenance. We probably could have saved some money by buying used instead, but over a decade of ownership I doubt that it would amount to more than a few hundred dollars per year.
Two Class B office buildings totaling ~150,000 ft2 in Boston just sold for $4.1M, when in 2016 they had previously sold for $16M https://archive.ph/AADPP.

Here's the location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ezkNUEPAVCJJ2rps8 Things to note:

* Within HALF A BLOCK of Boston Common

* Within one-to-two short blocks of THREE subway stations serving THREE of the four subway lines

* A Dunkin' Donuts 30 seconds away on foot, with multiple other cafes within a block.

So prime transit location for workers. However the occupancy of the building has been crud for a long while (hence being sold), and hence why it went for nearly 75% off in the auction.

And before anyone goes, "but what about the condition", take a look for yourself (https://i.imgur.com/rubVC88.jpg not all photos are the building). It's certainly not bad! No, it's not like a top-end Class A skyscraper such as 101 Huntington or 200 Clarendon (or newer stuff I've not been in), but it's far from garbage! It certainly appears to be Class B space, and I say that as someone who actually built out offices (as an employee, not an architect) for two companies about 10-15 years ago!

The sale price works out to just $27.33/ft2. The monthly rent for Class B in 2022 was $32-38/ft2. So these just sold for the (EDIT) one year's rent of Class C space. Yikes! Someone took a bath!

------

There's no office demand. Period. Boston has no shortage of vacant office space right now either, and even the buyers of these two buildings are looking to repurpose them.
Everyone else is paying catchup, but only because incumbents had no incentive to productize research and cannibalize their own industry-leading offerings, until a non-incumbent was already doing the first and threatening the second. And mostly what they are catching up on is productization, not basic research.

Promoting up from within, and grooming successors who started low down the ladder in the company, used to be common.

Now we hire straight in from B-schools at VP or director level, and one of those ends up CEO eventually (if a CEO's not simply hired from outside, directly).

This practice seems to have dramatically increased the cost of executives. I wonder if it's increased quality.

[EDIT] OK not straight from b-school, they have to do a stint in management consulting or whatever first. Because having that be something that the totally inexperienced do makes complete sense.

That's a bit different than giving the DNA + cost of sequencing + full identifying info, all signed sealed and delivered, wrapped up in a bow with fully authorized permission to monetize for whatever purpose and share with whomever asks. If someone else is going to the trouble of finding my location, stealing a sample, getting it sequenced, and correlating the data, then I suppose they earned the database record the hard way, didn't they!

Which exactly part happens all the time? Each year setting temperature records? "Once in a lifetime" climate disasters? Wildfires getting worse and worse?

On the wet bulb temperature front, it's literally unprecedented and quite impactful. Millions of people would be unable to survive where they currently live and would need to move.

I feel this is a straw man. The risk profile posed by this leak is not the same as someone going around and collecting people's DNA off the street. The leaked database is a highly concentrated artifact, complete with likely-correct PII across a million people.

If people were regularly surreptitiously collecting DNA samples from "the wild" at similar scale, this would be a different conversation.

The facts about climate change are damning enough, i don't know why people feel the need to resort to poor logic and fallacies when describing climate change. The truth is actually on your side. Lets present that instead.

Compare it to the past US CEO pay then. In the heyday of the American economic boom of the 1960s, the CEO-to-worker pay gap was an order of magnitude lower. What's a bit odd to me is how the social norms have shifted regarding this, to the point where average Americans defend it as just.
It might be interesting to see a study showing which countries (or economic areas, or industries, if you will) are more quality- vs quantity-focused. On the surface, putting in more hours would be an obvious one: Switzerland has a baseline max of 45h/w, while neighbouring France has 35. But Switzerland is a huge outlier in Europe, being, I believe, much more service-oriented than all of its neighbours because of limited useful space for space-hungry primary industries.

No, healthcare costs will increase in order to support robust wages and reasonable practitioner patient ratios. Inelastic demand for services that keep people alive do that.

Good luck trying to convince anyone who is not already using it. I've tried super hard to get my friends and family to use a password manager but they brush it off as a joke. Even when they lose their account it doesn't seem to bother them. They just create a new one. It's a dead race.

OpenStack Unleashes Bobcat: A Leap Forward in Open-Source Cloud Infrastructure
When reading expressions like "market distortion" in the context of a topic like child care, I am a bit astonished.
Children are our future, they will work when we retire. Investment pays off. In relation, I find the balance of how the subsidy is spread across the labour market is of a secondary order.

Please don't take this personally. I fairly wonder if the way of looking at these topics is a cultural or political thing.
This is a genuine possibility but before that will happen, the humans that have always been trying to control us will have ever more powerful tools, and generally I think that concern should be front of mind over self aware AGI taking over. The Murdochs and Zucks and Musks of the world control huge platforms which can easily tip sentiment. Better AI tools to track opinions and guide their viewers wherever the platform owners want is a more immediate concern, and hand-wringing over all-powerful AI which is a long ways away is a great way to avoid addressing these more human and more immediate issues.

We do not actually know if an all powerful AI would try to manipulate humanity (it absolutely might, but we do not know), but we know for a fact there are a lot of people right now already trying to do that, and AI tools will make it easier for them to do so.
I long ago hit the point that I simply won't buy things that require "the cloud" or a smartphone app to function.

So that's what he wanted.

And yet, passwords get guessed, stolen, re-used all the time. If you talk to regular people they still use pet names + a number because they want to be able to type it in everywhere.

It's not a solved problem, even if a rudimentary password manager is in most browsers.

I think most people have not hitchhiked cross-country or spent a full day walking. Too many of us have never been motivated by hunger or thirst to see what was over the next hill. We just do a quick search for a 7-11 on our smart phone.

> pass data from one endpoint to another

`curl ... > out.json` then `curl ... -d out.json`. Wrap it in a shell script for quick iterations.

> filtering through data

`curl ... | jq | grep`. I don't know of any tool that will find what I'm after faster than the shell.

For bootstrapping and quick experiments curl is right there at my fingertips, no need to spin up an electron app, make a bunch of definitions and all that. When I want something more usable OpenAPI serves as stateful and interactive test environment and documentation at the same time.

I do agree curl can get a little verbose but create an alias: `alias jc='curl -H Content-Type: application/json` and using it is as simple as `jc $URL` for GET or `jc -X POST -d '{ ... }' $URL` for the rest of the methods.

I really recommend getting comfortable in the shell, it's amazing how productive it can be and becoming a bit of a lost art these days. All the tools are composable and working together it's so zen.

Dunks is a New England institution with a pretty fanatical following, at least for the coffee.

To put things into perspective, until very recently, the Back Bay subway and commuter rail station had TWO Dunkin' Donuts inside the station, within ~100 feet of each other, one on each side of the platform (on the floor above the platforms). One was smaller than the other, but you could literally hit someone in the other line with a thrown donut they were that close.
