Then you scroll down to their time series showing "True Unemployment" is at historic lows


They're not switching to a new apportionment formula that doesn't politically benefit the party in power either


That's why I said gradually and state-by-state.

Honestly I think a main way it could be adopted is imposition by the courts -- we've seen increasing cases of "stalemates" where states can't seem to produce maps acceptable to the courts at all. So courts do have the ability to say, "if you can't produce a satisfactory map, we will, and this is it."

I'm not saying it's easy or quick, I'm just saying it's in the realm of the possible, unlike PR.

True. The article is about hardware, though. Luckily, we're getting a lot more use out of GPUs and SSDs at a time when improvement in CPUs and RAM has drastically slowed.

If you dont give the wealthy an unfair seat then they will not be in that university.

Instead they will be forced to go to another private school which will receive their endowments, and soon grow to the point they can compete with elite schools. Harvard, et all will still be good schools but not the "best" schools that people die to get into.


While the universities can completely do that, they can't get an antitrust exception while they do. That's the issue here, I think. The universities are colluding with one another as regards pricing and financial aid. This was allowed under an exception to antitrust law so long as financial aid played no role in admissions. The group is alleging that financial aid, or the lack of it, plays a role in admitting rich students. If that's the case, it's possible (but not anywhere close to certain) that the universities don't qualify for the antitrust exception.


I didn’t think universities were excepted from anti trust laws. Do you have any idea why this was permitted?


As I understand it they aren't entirely, but Section 568 of the Higher Education Act lets them communicate and act together for the purposes of determining some guidelines around financial aid.

Japan's fault for not making much of anything to replace 2channel.


Facebook could have bought Owlchemy Labs or the Rec Room team really early and turn that into "the metaverse." Instead it looks like it was designed by people who have never played a video game. His vision makes sense and the headsets are great.


How do you determine who is in the community and subject to the community law?
