Loosing a fully paying job is never preferable to unemployment in the US. E.g. “ If you are eligible to receive unemployment, the weekly benefit rate in Indiana is 47% of your average weekly wage (to come up with your average weekly wage, d

This sort of action is what we need across the economy. Cancellation or deferral. Rent deferral, interest deferral, mortgage deferral... etc. At the individual level maybe limit it to the lower 50%-70% of income earners. Cancel interest and

You’re awesome. I’m the oldest of 7 who grew up in a house that size. Way to go on the big fam! There’s a two bedroom house on my block that’s sub-1600 sq ft that 9 kids were raised in, so there’s always bigger and always smaller :) Totally

Many small businesses esp. in hospitality have to fire most of their staff because of this. It’s not a trivial thing to do, and only worthwhile when the infection/death rate starts climbing. Rural areas and smaller cities are pretty sa

Just go in and use hand sanitizer + wipes at the pump. No need to make it complicated.

I have a very large home (3,200 sq ft) but with 3 adults, 3 kids we start to fill it up.* I wanted to be able to have guests without having a dedicated guest room. The Murphy bed was a perfect solution. Got a local furniture maker to make i

My in-laws just got one for their lake house, and it’s been equally fun to watch. It’s the perfect thing for there because the last thing you want to do after a relaxing weekend at the lake is vacuum. Just hit go before leaving and you’re s

I heard once the ceo of Levi doesn’t wash his jeans. I decided not to as well (unless they get stained from kids) and they’ve been great. Just hang them up to air outside.

Another great source I’ve enjoyed using is https://www.bogleheads.org/forum/index.php . This of course presupposes choosing that particular investment strategy, but the opportunity to ask anonymous, detailed financial

The bigger point is TV is a poor way to ‘chill and recharge’. It zaps your creative process, deadens your judgment, and isolates you from those around. Reading, conversation with friends/family, poetry, painting, sitting and enjoying a

Grads don’t provide meaningful feedback for how a student can grow or the challenges they’re facing. As soon as you introduce grades they become the sole metric to be gamed. I understand there’s real issues with scaling, but national tests

Striking coincidence that I’m reading a biography on Jimmy Hoffa right now. $2500 a year is a slap in the face to the $1800 / month the students were demanding. Something needs to change there. For the Midwest small college town where

I really don’t understand this. All my current browsers don’t need more features. They didnt 5 years ago either.

Glad they provide a log scale. Shows China growth slowing down but the rest of the world is exponential.

Because smoking has been in the headlines, but it's not news anymore that it's killing so many. The editor of that newspaper would get fired for making that a headline everyday. It is news that there's a new flu-like virus em

There are standard ways in industry of dealing with this problem. You verify your suppliers. Amazon doesn’t do this, and so kids eat lead and we get shitty stuff. The real makers get pissed. The scammers and amazon profit.

I sure hope that you’ve talked some 65+ year olds who are loving their life. Suffering is not the same as evil. With old age typically comes suffering. But my great grandma lived to be a 102 and loved her life to the end.

I would guess the parent comment wouldn’t disagree that it had sped up til about 1950 or 1970. But then it has slowed down since. I tend to agree, and that this whole personal computers, web apps, tracking stuff that’s obsessed over here ju

I had the opposite experience in research. I switched from pencil to pen. Reading later (e.g. 15 page math derivations) I could see some of the dead ends I took and mistakes made, while still following the thread. Additionally, some researc

Switched to a Surface and it's great (except the touchscreen is useless). Use a remote desktop + homebuilt tower when I need more performance (computational simulations). Use onedrive to sync everything between them. It's not perf
