Maybe. I would like to think that is true but i don't have much evidence. I think what we can see provably is that China is investing in the development of STEM contributors at the primary school level through advanced degrees and the

10k PhDs lost isn't a step in the direction of fixing anything, though. There is little to no evidence that the people leaving aren't the top performers, let alone the bottom.

People have really messed up views about hiring in general. I wish more people understood what you are saying here.

I think your comment is more a refutation of the top level than the person you're responding to. I think people are right to assume there is already a serious throughput issue with scientific research, especially so-called "basic&

I believe the opposite is happening in China. I saw an article the other day ( https://fortune.com/2026/01/14/china-graduates-1-3-million-e... ) that showed how the amount of engineers being produced there is

It sounds like you're saying that this is a step in the direction of "fixing" academia. I don't see any evidence of that, all i see is fewer scientists receiving decreasing funding in a state where weve already been slas

This is a non-sequitur. Making immigration impossible or stopping science funding or whatever is not going to change the behavior of a market profiting off of housing.

I came here to see if the comments could explain to my why this obviously bad thing is actually good. Its somewhat comforting to see others worried about the implication. The fact is that governments (aka public funding) is really what driv

This is nice, and I develop often in Kotlin, but none of this will really achieve what people want so long as any line can possibly throw a runtime exception.

I mean I guess I didn’t say it explicitly but they are saying “eat better” instead of taking medicine and doing it while medicine becomes increasingly less accessible by most Americans. So yeah. Also not offended at all it’s just patentl

Idk if you mean it literally but conflating the sort of prostitution they ask about on immigration forms with taking naked pictures of yourself seems very wrong.

I think its dangerous to engage with this website as an earnest attempt to make people healthier as individuals or as a population and not a metastasis of woo-fueld ignorance of data and trends like you're talking about whos goal is ul

Wow thank god it's my fault im sick and i can make personal choices to stop chronic conditions! I was worried it might have something to do with material conditions i live in but also can not control, or worse that i might require medi

you clearly dont live here or you'd know that the poor of NYC are not the ones that own cars. they're the ones that take public transit. also, there are state benefits that offset congestion pricing and other fees for people who a

exactly. and the pandemic "lockdowns" showed those of us who actually live here that what we want is fewer cars in our neighborhoods.

I understand what you're saying but after 100 years of uninhibited car-centric design i think its reasonable for those of us who live here to want to prioritize the experience of people who live and work in manhattan, south bronx, and

The worst UK accidents happened immediately after the initial push to privatize which resulted (in part) in the hybrid situation that exists today.

They didn’t actually do what the headline claims. They made a memory cache which sits in front of S3 for the happy path. Cool but not nearly rolling your own S3

As a concerted urbanite i totally agree with you. The problem is that people like the author are arguing for a third type of place, the suburb, which is unsupportable and harms us. Its a post-war experiment which has largely failed.

Correct. The car industry intentionally socially engineered the US to associate the giant individual and social burden of car ownership with freedom. A great documentary called Century of the Self covers this and other related things ( htt

Yes and one that is aesthetically characteristic of the places the author has spent time in. The idea that community development and the project of raising the social "floor" is somehow being "forced" on the middle class

This isn’t the gotchya you think it is and I don’t think the majority of people who benefit from empire aren’t aware. The violation of common sense here is the notion that 1) these people are living the good life and 2) removal of empire wo
