I remember ICML 2015 in Beijing when I was the only one (I suspect there was another guy but apparently he even had to hide his affiliation) from Apple at the conference. Not allowed to officially/publicly to talk about what I do. Wen

last thing you want is long term effects being harder than the disease itself. Even moderate effects will undermine trust in vaccines and the world absolutely can not afford that. I hope we’ll thread carefully here.

this is fantastic news. Yes, we don’t know how to properly adapt yet, but this planet resources are limited and we aren’t good at sharing them. What worries me is that long term this can be reversed just like current trend is reversing away

I wish our “leaders” (federal, state, local) had at least approximate plan further than half a month into the future.

we (US) should just give them all path to citizenship. No, special territory is a horrible idea.

it would be very sad and a huge net negative for the world. Being able to cheaply and quickly travel practically anywhere makes us see others as much less different from us and helps us see global issues as our issues

nope, people actually with money invest them because otherwise the cash is guaranteed to lose value. having said that, i don’t see why this has to be tied with population growth. we already have way too many people in this planet - lets f

this is a vey sound advice. A pandemic project which can’t go wrong is exercising more (even indoors). Start small, then make it a habbit.

this is a good time for Boeing to invest into R&D so that when aviation does recover (a while from now) Boeing would be ready with a novel high quality offering.

“why didn’t they just hire the employees in their own country” - now much more of that will come. Obviously not an on/off switch.

The full WFH also means your talent pool to hire from is more global, and, on average, cheaper

“ CA companies won't pay CA level salaries to remote workers in other states.” - this is True. However, in my experience the pay difference is smaller than CA income tax. And then there is cost of living

Nope, if I move to, say, Bellevue, WA permanently to avoid CA income tax, I will not pay any CA income tax on work done after I relocated permanently from CA. Edit: Source - done that before when relocating (and having the same employer, w

How much of its tax base will CA loose to other states/countries over the next 10 years if WFH does become a thing? CA should really think super hard about incentivizing those leaving SF/Bay Area to settle elsewhere in CA. That wi

I’d like to see a study on how UBI affects average reproduction rates of the population. Financial pressures associated with raising kids is a big factor which pushes them down.

the problem with environment footprint is that moving it to other country solves nothing and often makes matters worse (due to more relaxed standards). We all live on the same planet.

If a company want to hire remote workers, why do that in US or Europe?

If a company can have most, if not all, of its software engineering workforce WFH, why would they hire in US or Europe for those/similar roles?

the pay is based (as it should be) on market conditions, regulations and contractual obligations. Should not be based on ethics - those can vary in surprising ways.
