Right now? For going back to the EU? Perhaps not. But I did have options to stay at my Uni 15yrs ago, and the person who filled my job is still there, on a permanent contract.

I would have 100% figured it out.

Twee opties: 1) Groenland inlijven, of 2) IKEA tariffs opschroeven. Allemaal om Noorwegen te straffen.

Sad. I'd expect the same thing happening at the post-doc level; and I know for sure that I would not coming from Germany for a US TT job now, like I did 15yrs ago.

Up go the tariffs on IKEA again

You won't notice those, is my guess. Those are the international postdocs/PhDs who now choose to go back to Europe/China/... instead of taking positions at the flaghsips.
Much of the US brain drain is going to be a lack of brain gain.

Libraries are infrastructure. Perhaps the best amenity of the home we bought was that it is within a block from the library - that opens up so much.

I'm not the kind of adult who dresses up for Halloween, but this is soooo tempting....

Fangraphs has you covered. Polanco and Freeman were the leading hitters this year: www.fangraphs.com/leaders/majo...

Spoken like a true assistant professor.

Mwah, mijn nineties liepen in een dikke streep door t/m 2005 ofzo, met Radiohead, Blur, eels, Wilco, de belgen en excelsior en meer.

Maar het was wel een parallel universum met de billboards die je tegenkwam als je de grachtenkelder weer uitklom na een concert.

There are 15 days in between the release of ChatGPT and Cory Doctorow coining the phrase "Enshittification".

Any moose sightings so far?

My sewer district is better than your sewer district.

Can't imagine either; but a 17 year old prince, who could not fight in the war because he was too young, just coming back out of banishment is almost literally a fairy tale trope.

Blargh.

Fall on me.

Maar verder is het hele punt van die plaat natuurlijk wel dat (vooral) de A-zijde alleen maar doordendert.

Regarding the approval vs voteshare for lower income, could it be that some low-income voters are also less informed voters, and only now realizing what his platform really is?

Hamilton makes so much more sense now.

I mean, I don't think I've ever biked down Euclid without at least once swerving for a car blocking the bike lane, or braking for a car turning right without looking.

I could set up a bot, I guess.

How big of an issue is this inside normal homes? My VOx etc levels are pretty low (except perhaps the kitchen unit), and the filters inside the heat pumps seem to remain pretty clean.

A 4-bunt rally in the 6th inning *was* predicatble, though.

They had their rehabbing Ace sold, closer and other solid pitcher suspended, and weren't able to hit a T-ball. Seems like a recipe for success.

Even Adam Smith himself believed in guardrails to keep capitalism in check. The US is the only nation that tried it without (twice). Failed 120 years ago, and that was with Carnegie being kind enough to give some money back to the public.

Lady, I'm Dutch. I've lived under water for most of my life. A tad bit of rain is not going to be noticeable.

Kwam hier om te checken of je het al over Pythagoras dag had gehad. Was niet teleurgesteld.

But who are the reviewers?

Describing my time in Europe to US friends pretty much made everyone jealous about the futuristic way of living there. Bikes, parks, public transportation, walkable neighborhoods....

My 8yo was biking back home from school/friends/after school activities in the Netherlands, in the US we're ferrying them everywhere. Imagine the time gained/stress lost if we can let him bike the 10min to swimming 3 evenings per week.

In a just society, Emmett Till would quite likely still have been alive right now.

Gewoon sorry zeggen tegen Spanje, en vragen of we terug mogen.
