In AI, all the important publications are posted on arxiv first. If a paper is sent to a journal before arxiv, it is clear the authors believe their paper is not significant enough to alert the community.

The publishing culture from the life sciences is toxic and will be avoided by the AI community.

I just wanted to chime in and hopefully prevent selection bias (for posting) and say:

Who?

Average can be biased downward due to the large number of "cheap" places.

This is absolutely correct. OP unfortunately missed this opportunity. Let's hope other readers don't make this mistake in the future.

I was expecting 1 or 2 past discussions. Then I saw 1-2 every year, for the past 3 years.

Engineers in the bay can make $1 million or higher, if you know where to look. You will likely never get that in Texas.

> your tax increases to fund the basic income program will be a lot more than the $1K you'll receive, so there won't be extra for rent at all.

This will never happen (through government legislation). If it does happen, then the policy will encourage individuals not to work, since the income to work ratio is better if you make less money. This would be a disaster for a country's economic development.

This is incorrect.

The rent will precisely increase by 1000 Euro. Yes you can compare percentages all you want, but at the end of the day, 1000 Euro basic income is 1000 Euro more for everyone. That will be directly plowed into everyone's (for example) personal rent/housing budget or tolerance, which translates to inflated rental prices.

If I make $15K/month and receive a $1K/month basic income, I'll gladly pay $1K/month more for rent -- just like the guy making $5K/month would. Can you tell me what will happen to rent rates?
