I am not familiar with the issue, but to parrot other comments that are, it seems that because caste is not ethnicity or nationality, even having a law that recognizes caste as a difference os a step in the wrong direction. Making certain castes protected under the law has backfired horribly in India, and many do not want to see that repeated.
During an interview, my team lead was asking the interviewee strange questions. I thought they were benign... Afterwards, she plainly stated she was trying to find out what caste he was from. I was ignorant, thinking this is like, are you from the east coast, west coast, etc. My biggest mistake was not going to HR. I later suspected if this was going on, I was probably going to receive the same treatment sooner or later. Then it happened, and I left the company.

My mum had a 2004 Sonata and it got T-boned with like 3,000km on the odometer. It was like a $17k car brand new, with and they put like $15k of body work (and then hiring a loaner car for a month while doing it) into it. Ran fine for another 150,000km before she traded it in, but I was baffled that the other driver's insurance didn't just say "we're writing it off, go get another one." OTOH, she was so pleased by their willingness to pay without hassle that she switched to that carrier.
>In what fantasy world does "well regulated" and "anyone can own nuclear weapons" co-exist?

Define well regulated and explain how it had anything to do with excluding certain types of weapons.

>The whole argument about the 2nd Amendment is because it's so vague and ambiguous. If it had just clearly said "Each citizen is permitted to own a flintlock musket, 2 flintlock pistols, and a cavalry sword" (which was probably much closer to the intent of the Amendment) then we wouldn't have such a big issue with gun control. Then again, we might just have fully automatic assault "muskets".

This is utterly ridiculous. There were rudimentary automatic weapons (puckle guns) that existed decades prior the Constitution.

Second, private citizens owned the same weaponry as the military. Canons, guns, ships, etc. If the founders wanted to limit the citizens they would have said that was their intention.

Third, if you want to take the interpretation that says only things that existed at the time qualify, then surely you are consistent and don't think the first amendment applies to the internet? Or do you just hold that standard for the 2nd amendment.

>In any case, even if you were allowed to own a nuclear weapon, that doesn't mean that you can afford one.

True, but irrelevant.

>You're allowed to own a Blackhawk helicopter or a HEMMT too, but do you?

I don't have any intention of owning either or nukes for that matter.

>Herein lies the problem of gun ownership as a "right". Does that mean that people should be provided with guns for free?

I don't think rights means you should necessarily be provided it. I don't think the government owes me free electricity and computer so I can exercise my first amendment rights for example. And before you say that example is dumb, remember that people are pushing the idea that the internet is a right. Well the internet is useless without a computer/phone. And a computer/phone is useless without electricity.

Regardless of your wish that guns are not a right, they are considered one in the US. If the US pushes the idea that healthcare is a right and as such it must be free, then I would support a lawsuit that demanded free guns from the government. I believe in consistently applying standards.

> That depends on whether the median person is living in poverty or not.

Well, no, even if we stretched the definition of poverty to cover people making the national median personal income, people making 2.5× that still wouldn’t be in or just over poverty, but, sure, if you redefine poverty to include the wealthy than the wealthy are “poor”. But there are people actually in poverty by its common definition, and people making $100k/yr—which was asserted to be on the edge of poverty generally these days upthread—have more in common with people making $1 million/yr than with those people in actual poverty.

> There are definitely places in the US where it would be very difficult to raise a family or buy a home on the median income.

“It’s difficult to buy a home” isn’t poverty, and the subject wasn't people earning the median personal income but $100k/yr.

That isn't how it works. The issue is that cases are not brought because it is hard to prove it illegal.

https://www.equalitylabs.org/castesurvey documents that 2/3 of Dalits in the USA report being mistreated at work. I'm only aware of one lawsuit about it. That was the CISCO case. No federal agencies got involved because it does not fall into race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability or genetic information. Therefore discriminating by caste is legal under federal law.

California may be a different story. The case against CISCO is the only one ever brought. You can read about it at https://hulr.org/spring-2021/caste-in-cisco-understanding-ca....

Remember. Only case ever brought, when surveys indicate that 2/3 of Dalits are discriminated against on the job in the USA. And it is definitely legal under federal law.

In the absence of any case, ever, saying that it is illegal to discriminate on caste in the USA, it is almost certainly generally legal.

Of course we should. But I'm not convinced barring four-stars from going to work with Raytheon or Lockheed Martin is the way to do it. First off, defense contracting is run through the services, not the combatant commands, so there's 11 four-star officers off the bat who aren't making contracting decisions compared to six who are. Remember, military services man, train, and equip the Joint Force. Combatant Commanders employ the Joint Force. The service heads have no command authority in the field. They are merely force providers to the Combatant Commanders.

What's more, funding allocations to the services start with what's called the Defense Planning Guidance, which is a document issued by the Office of the (civilian) Secretary of Defense. This is then broken down into Service Program Guidance about where each military service spends its money. Services then come up with a Program Objective Memorandum outlining the budget they need, which then goes to the Joint Staff, because the Joint Staff's job is refereeing interservice food fights. This then goes to the (civilian) Presidential administration, who presents a budget to Congress, who approves it.

So there are many cooks in this budgetary kitchen, and if Congress doesn't like the military Congress funded and approved for the President to use, then perhaps Congress can look itself in the face and ask itself why it's not fulfilling its duties under Article I of the United States Constitution, instead of trying to pass the buck onto the President's subordinate officers, when it's ultimately Congress who controls the purse strings.

I keep saying "Congress" for a reason . . .
I can think of few things more un-American than the concept of caste. We should not even acknowledge that caste exists any more than bodily humors.

There is a problem with this.

Generals and Admirals in the know have very current knowledge about capability gaps, and how to better serve the customer. Given that they already have a 1 year cooling off period for any contract they directly oversaw (most weapons programs are overseen by O6 & O5s, or junior SES).

We're in this very sensitive time where you want senior Warfighters and planners are vitally needed for a massive modernization campaign as we shift US Defense away from counter-terrorism and towards peer nation-states. US Defense was lulled during Iraq and Afghanistan, thinking counter-insurgency is what we'll be fighting forever.

The military way of thinking and planning battle campaigns, and knowledge of Order of Battle, both our own, but also of our enemies - that is perishable knowledge in these senior officer's heads.

Additionally I would like to bring up one other thing - although troops matter a great deal, and so does training, much of combat comes down to weapons systems.

Weapon Systems - Better, faster, cheaper, more accurate, more lethal, more mass-producable, less resource intensive, more logistically mobile - is what wins wars.

I’m sure there are plenty of places that would be happy to have people with experience running life or death operations involving the most complex infrastructure imaginable.

The fact is that defense contractors are not employing them for their transferable skills. They just want a direct line into the pentagons (i.e. the public’s) pockets.

The FY2024 Pentagon budget is 842 billion dollars.

The Pentagon cannot pass an audit of its budget to save its life, it's the status quo: https://www.thefiscaltimes.com/2019/11/20/Pentagon-Fails-Aud....

The Pentagon makes tens of trillions of dollars of accounting adjustments each year because its internal financial controls are basically non existent.

If the Pentagon was a publicly traded company, Matt Levine would be writing about it as an exemplar of fraud every week and its shareholders would be suing.

You're underplaying the corruption by an order of magnitude at least.
Because three star and four star tanks are temporary, officers will retire at the end of their term to finish their career as that highest rank, rather than revert to a two star rank until they are required by law to retire. But the type of person who makes it that far isn’t going to be the type of person who wants to stay idle for long, especially if they are still feeling pretty young.

Look, I'm really not in favor of the caste system. People are people; they are not the slot they got stuffed in by the system in the old country. But...

A lot of whites got really frustrated by White Fragility. The claim that all whites are inherently racist was offensive (with some good reason). Well, isn't this kind of the same? This is at least being read as "all Indians are caste-ist".

That's for the "target" part, and maybe the "racially profile" part. The rest is just hyperventilating.
Exactly this. If the Fat Leonard fiasco had been a "dog bites man" story, it wouldn't have been such a scandal.

Again, looking back on a 20-year active and reserve career in uniform, my personal opinion is that a lot of the waste and inefficiency in DOD is precisely because of all the ethics rules. Not that I don't approve of ethics rules, but there are times it seems the hoops you have to jump through to spend government money are based on the assumption that A) everything has to be above board and B) all contractors involved are inherently a bunch of flim-flam artists who will fleece the government given half a chance.

And this is precisely why the Pentagon bureaucracy is so infamous, and why companies want to hire retired Generals and Admirals to help them navigate it.

Don't you think we should hold any economic activity that impacts those working in the service of the public interest/their elected representatives to a higher standard than "other sectors of the economy"?

We migrated from knex to Prisma and so far, I haven't seen any benefits.
It depends.

We had this ridiculous money-making scheme from the Federal Government a few years back called "Robodebt", which basically amounted to sending demands to pay back welfare money that they claim was incorrectly claimed ... long after the retention period for the paperwork. Conveniently they declined to show their working for the so-called incorrect claims.

Most people didn't keep their timesheets and records, and then couldn't prove they weren't overpaid, and were supposedly liable for the "debt".

I imagine my problem is using ChatGPT with GPT4 rather than the api.

I have had a custom prompt with a mix of various requests listed below, worded many different ways, different combinations, etc. and ChatGPT will happily ignore most of them.

- Don’t apologize.

- Don’t make changes to the (code, draft, etc) that are not requested.

- If I question something about your response to a prompt, don’t assume I am telling you you are wrong or asking you to re-answer. Explain.

- Don’t conclude every response with a paragraph reiterating all that was said.

- Don’t give a lengthy disclaimer that you’re an AI or a response may be incomplete or may not cover every edge case. If you have to include a disclaimer, just say “the usual disclaimer applies”.

Many more little things I can’t recall at the moment. I gave up and removed the custom prompt. It made no difference.

You should be able to see that loading performance on a "cold load" yes, but it's difficult to account for all network conditions. It's also possible for the multiplayer connection to take a little longer. I think if we messaged that more clearly then it would explain what's happening. We also considered just putting you in the game before you got the multiplayer connection, but that might be a bit jarring when it added all the players and entities in. We should maybe still think about it!

There's also a lot more room for loading optimization, I think we can maybe go 2-5x faster than what we have currently!

> Pretty sure this is privacy related.

Under the section heading "Privacy", the author wrote: "Censorship to maintain privacy is an important feature in the Unified log, and is responsible for so many of its entries being peppered with <private> instead of revealing potentially sensitive data."

So yes, this is privacy-related.

> Just enable more verbose logging to see all your personal details in said logs again.

"Apple has now decided that some log content is too private to reveal even when privacy has been removed. I came across this recently..."

"Of course, it may be possible to turn this additional privacy off, but the documentation leads us once again to a guessing game."
>there are real trade-offs for the staff and organization, and those tend to get overlooked in favor of lifestyle or sunk RE cost arguments.

Employees are given some power and time back for the first time in decades after the opposite relationship ended up with being overworked, underpaid, and unappreciated as they are dropped at a moment's notice. So yea, I'm not surprised people aren't sympathizing for the companies who boasted about making record profits over the pandemic and suddenly they need to "downsize". burning decades of trust and goodwill has consequences.

Also, extremes rarely help. I'm not a manager, so even in office there are only people on my immediate team or a specific person or 2 I am working directly with on another team that I would do that with. When it is expected and we have the same tasks in mind. Even then it's better to get stuff in writing where possible so I'd rather send a message, even if it's just so I can give them 10-15 minutes to think over before I walk to them.

That sounds specific to using DNA tests for things like health insurance or work fitness. In most of the cases you don't need to swab DNA to find someone's race, sex or ancestry. You can find those by other means. So that law won't prohibit discrimination based on sex, race and ancestry.
