Thanks for saying this. In one case we set a moral example by agreeing to let China and Co. sell us cheap disposable goods with the explicit goal of lifting their farming class out of poverty. We did this at the expense of millions upon millions of Americans and their descendants. It's a real shame that neither political party can agree on a set of actions to reverse that trend.
I listened to a national news correspondent say, "...are not being censored they are just cleaning things up...". It's "cleaning things up" when the result benefits your cause but censorship when it harms your cause. It's sickening how editorialized national news has become. Why not just report the facts, "...twitter has deleted these tweets..."? Why does some talking head on television need to try to tell me what I should think and feel about an event or statement by a third party?
If you earned it then defending it or bragging about it may not make everyone feel great but that is fine in my opinion. When I see a rich person enjoying what they worked for I don't feel any type of way. What someone else does with their property should not affect you, if it does then look into your own personality and ask yourself why. It's rude to count someone else's money unless they ask you for that service.
If you use your laptop as mostly a youtube machine or a social media station then yes, the described problems are not a big deal, in fact they are probably beneficial to your well-being. But if you use your laptop to earn a living, that can be a major problem, day traders for a top of the head example. This also sounds like a nightmare for the corporate world. I suspect that these custom silicon iOS devices will be fully cemented as 'Fisher Price' computers.
The important question is when does it end, the economists that promoted globalization have come forward and admitted that it hurt the US more than planned.
Does it only end when the US population is in the state that the poor Chinese, et al. farmers were in before we accepted this globalism?
At some point we have to stop and say, "OK, we gave you a leg up now let's spend a few decades and rebuild our own country". This is not what is proposed by Democrat politicians, they propose we continue to transfer wealth (in many forms) to other countries and fill the income gap that is produced with social welfare programs.
I think it's more likely that younger people eventually just stop buying property, massively reducing current property owners ability to sell their homes, and as we know, an asset is only worth what someone will pay and if no one will pay, it's worth nothing. Young people might just live in studio housing projects funded by the governments. Young people used to come of age then many would work in factories, there are no longer enough factories for a significant portion of young people to be fully employed. Trump may lose this election due to his personality and inability to work with other people and take advice but many of us really respect him calling out the trade deficit and import tax disparities with our trading partners as a solution to part of the underemployment problem. There was a point in history when we were happy to trade with the developing world at a loss in order to raise their standard of living, but now that most of those countries are capable of being self sufficient we should no longer import foreign manufactured goods tax free, we should block those imports or tax them to the point it makes sense for these companies to open factories in the US.
I've been waiting for DDR5, I knew it was coming and my PC runs the games I play just fine on DDR3. I do have a Thinkpad p51 that has Xeon/DDR4, so I didn't completely skip DDR4.
The Putin Gang seems to rely heavily on fake election results. Simply need to reverse-corrupt the small group of individuals that collate the ballots and the small group of media bosses who disseminate the results. That might be a start.
I just assumed everyone who read this would understand that revolution is hard, dirty, and complicated. But unless those corrupt countries are to be surrendered forever, what I said is the actual solution: someone smart and resourceful enough to make it another country needs to rally the people and takeover.
Indians don't practice caste system because caste system exists, caste system exist because Indians want to practice caste system. You really think they don't game the visa system?
He would call the new single party in control libertarian socialists. Currently the Democratic party is closest to that dream vision. Clearly the shortest path to a country ruled by libertarian socialists is to empower the current democratic party then transform them from the inside.
No I would not be happy. What I was thinking was: How does who I text help with in person contact tracing. If I text my High School buddy in california how does that help determine who I came in contact with if I were later diagnosed with Covid.
I don't get the relationship between numbers in my phone and the probability I stood in line at a starbucks whith someone else who was infected.
Congress would not listen to him if he locked himself in the oval office. It would be pointless. Even if he has a few guys with guns stick with him, I think the congress would order the capital police to remove him, at that point he would not be president he would just be a dude locked in the white house.
I've watched several of his recent interviews, he is clearly entered a period of accelerated aging and having trouble putting coherent thoughts together, a la biden, trump et al.
But to your point, yes, he wants civil war OR any scenario that results in his chosen political religion to become dominant. Most reasonable people think more political parties would be beneficial, Noam and those of his tribe want a single party system like china where they are in control.
Capitalism is not the problem, the problem is that people continue to do business with companies that operate with disregard for the long term consequences of their business practices.
In my life my perceived productivity drops when I'm assigned many projects, each one takes more calendar days because I have to make progress on multiple fronts, switching time, multiple more meetings with PMs and stakeholders per week BUT due to my experience the end result is closer to what the stakeholders have in mind and my projects run in production with fewer issues. I've discussed this with my leadership and they understand and are fine with longer timelines that result in higher quality work.
OH come on, I'm sure you can imagine the complexity of digging grows as the depth grows. the first meter would cost 100$ the second 150$, the 3rd 200$, the fourth 500$ the fifth 550$, the sixth 600$, etc.
They are grateful that they do not have to pay for childcare and can continue to work. Many people can't afford a full-time babysitter. Their choices might be: send kid to school and continue to work OR keep kid home and not work while past due rent and bills pile up. Although I have met some mid 20s parents that are perfectly fine with an excuse to not work.
I think it would be possible to think of this in terms of complexity theory, for N case statements to you would possibly have to check 2N locations for assignment. I wonder if you could do parallel assignment: var1 = case = var2
