> Draft Revisions to the Guidelines for Permission for Permanent Residence (Summary)

...

> Regarding the positioning of the "Permanent Resident" status of residence:

> ・ Explicitly stated for the first time that, as it is "the most stable legal status—entailing no restrictions on activities or duration of stay and presupposing a lifetime spent in Japan"—there is a "need for particularly careful screening."

...

> Regarding "2. Requirement for Independent Livelihood"

> ・ Underlying Principle: Explicitly requires an economic status equal to or better than that of Japanese nationals, both currently and in the future.

> ・ Income: Whether income consistently meets or exceeds the average income level of Japanese households based on household size (raising the standard).

> ・ Pension: Whether the projected future pension benefit amount reaches the level corresponding to 30 years of enrollment in the Employees' Pension Insurance at the aforementioned annual income level (newly added requirement; however, financial assets that can cover any shortfall will also be taken into account).

If you train and instruct a circus tiger to entertain an audience but not attack the audience, but the tiger attacks the audience anyway, are you liable?

It's interesting that you chose to measure how well each LLM did in talking to other NPCs, and having each NPC also use an LLM to react to each input. Why not have the LLM fight NPCs and loot items (both a significant part of the MUD experience, neither requiring LLMs on the server side), then measure character progression in experience and stats?

If your requirements.in referenced numpy before this release, then doesn't your requirements.txt already reference a specific 1.x version?

Not a Thinkpad and not Intel, but that already seems attainable with the asus G14 (AMD 8945HS + NVIDIA 4070) or the upcoming asus zenbook S16 (AMD HX 370).

I've never seen a large company with more L7+ engineers than L7+ managers. Usually it's a ratio of drastically more managers hired/promoted into those levels than engineers, and some orgs don't have any engineers in those levels at all.

Take a look at https://github.com/xonsh/xonsh/issues before deciding to abandon the devil you know.

I prefer sticking with bash where necessary (where a script is the only thing that will reasonably work), and elsewhere using a programming language with testing, type checking, modularity, and compilation into something with zero or minimal runtime dependencies.

This is a JavaScript keyword and there's nothing TypeScript-specific in the blog post.

Is this similar to people moving away from giving their code as open source when companies take it, repackage, and sell it while the authors get nothing?

They don't have to hire people who already know Zig -- just people capable of learning it.

You don't need to run jlink yourself to avoid shipping the entire JDK. Here's a java19 runtime docker image at 62MB: https://hub.docker.com/_/eclipse-temurin/tags?page=1&name=19...

Not customizing the runtime per build or per app also potentially helps reuse of docker image layers across your container registries and clusters.

You still need postcss or something like it to use css modules. The alternative of CSS-in-JS requires a build step to extract either a CSS file or inline critical styles for server rendering. The browser-native alternative of CSS Module Scripts doesn't work in Safari.

You still need babel, tsc, or swc to transform typescript to JS.

And then there are imports of files that aren't JS (images, fonts, stylesheets, etc).
