Supporting life in space or our on our planetary neighbors will always be harder then trying to sustain life on a Earth, even one that's less hospitable and riven with climate instigated strife. Unless their plan is to hide in orbit while the society and environment they were born into crumble.
What happened oldest pastime of the fortunate: being a humanitarian and philanthropist?
This man can have anything he wants, yet still he can only wants to escape his troubles and anxieties, and lacks the courage to help current and future generations that will inherit the mess he's choosing to ignore.
We'll never solve our problems if our society's leaders don't have the will to face them.
Also, does it ultimately matter with an economy as productive as China's? Other commenters are comparing it with Detroit, which has lost most of its tax base, so I'm not sure that's a fair comparison.
And, if they are state run funds/bond issuing, than isn't it roughly equivalent to any other kind of monetary stimulus? (genuinely asking, this isn't my area of expertise)
They want to force people to use economically inefficient services, small restaurants versus large cafeteria, to create more economic "activity". Which would be analogous to celebrating the waste of breaking a perfectly good window, because fixing/replacing the window generates economic activity. Is that fair?
This is under the (I think reasonable) assumption that a cafeteria designed for 500-1000 people is probably more efficient than the dozens of smaller scale restaurants needed to match that supply.
I'm impressed with the testing approach.
Is anyone aware of similar articles/explanations of the JVM runtime and JIT?
It looks like sellers/board-makers were just charging what they thought they could get away with because the consumers weren't price sensitive, not because of a shortage.
e.g. If you normally sell 100 Video Cards, at $500, but now you can sell 100 at $750 you'd be foolish not to increase the price and capture the margins that go along with it.
1) Make sure the mentor likes this role, and that they understand it's their responsibility to guide the new person or to reach out for assistance if needed.
2) This person should be a peer, but that they should be able assign exercises to the new hire to advance their knowledge. Maybe this could be pairing on bug fixes.
Also, I don't know how well this would work at firms where nobody "has enough time" for this. How does one make the time, or change things so that people don't feel that way?
