There is an Auto-build capability you can unlock. Makes the crafting much less tedious.

As a fellow European, I used to feel that way. Having lived in Canada for a while now, I prefer short notice periods.

It means that I can be more flexible in pursuing opportunities. Businesses also tend to be more risk-seeking because the downside of hiring someone is lower. That benefits me as an employee because it is much easier to get hired.

I’ve been laid off, so I also felt the negative consequences. The key for me was building an emergency fund. Granted, if a person is in an employer's market, the short notice system is terrible.

Following that, capital is potential energy.

Skills are the ability to meet spec quicker than someone who has to learn as they go. Sounds like potential energy to me. Since capital acts like potential energy, it follows that skills are capital.

Good point. If someone is forced to sell their house and stays in the same area, rental prices should stay the same because demand remains the same. What would happen if an investor living elsewhere is forced to sell?

The fall in house prices will probably not affect the prices of rental units. The cost of acquiring a home should be roughly the same, considering an increase in interest rates.

Rental prices might fall if people are forced to sell their houses at lower prices. In my area, people buy houses on 30-year mortgages with variable rates and require an in-law suite to finance it partially. The margins are so thin that I encountered people who had to sell their homes because of increased property taxes.

I wonder why they didn’t archive the most relevant tweets only. A library keeps only a subset of all available books in its archive as well.

Edit:

From the article, there are copyright issues when archiving tweets. The people tweeting own their tweets. So the archive doesn’t want to expose itself to that risk.

> The 14nm technology is at least three generations behind the latest advances available on the market but it is already the second-best technology that China’s chipmaking champion Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp. owns.

Out of curiosity, what is the west gaining by restricting more advanced chips? China can build computers, smartphones, and weapons with the older generation of chips.

Is it to make their chip industry uncompetitive so we don’t become dependent on them?

If the people steering the robots are located in a different country than the work side, would they need a work visa?
