That would destroy the housing market in terms of an inability for many potential homeowners to finance a property purchase. Although this would probably be welcome news for younger and/or less-resourced potential owners since property prices would be decimated and would therefore become much more affordable.

Perhaps for the initial purchase this type of income-based approach on debt financing could be waived as an exemption, and could apply to financial products like home-equity line of credit (HELOC) loans.

>>I'm not against fact checking, but it absolutely felt like a punch in the gut coming from a non-dev. There was no "trust" there. She couldn't rely on my expertise, she had to go back to her "source of truth" (Claude) and asked for a second opinion on something that she wouldn't be able to verify.

This is probably how physicians feel when informed patients (whether using LLMs or not) ask questions (good or bad) during their patient encounters.

You're right, but I understand that many graduate programs will ask for your undergraduate GPA and/or transcript as part of the application process.

If one doesn't plan on applying to grad school immediately after undergrad then hopefully there is less self-imposed grade pressure.

>>I try to keep 150-200 miles of spare range on my vehicle when I am in that kind of country. That is hard to do on a typical EV.

Plus the additional anxiety of trying to figure out if dropping temperatures will add massive downside variance to your initial range estimate.

>>[...] at least gave precise consistent definitions for basic terminology.

Hopefully interactive proof assistants like Lean or Rocq will help to mitigate at least this issue for anybody trying to learn a new (sub)field of mathematics.

This reason alone is unlikely to provide sufficient motivation to keep grinding away. Language acquisition can be a slog even though it's (eventually) super rewarding.

Assuming you could afford it, would the new iPhone Air be a consideration in your ultralight base load going forward?

Ericsson is a Swedish company with headquarters in Stockholm. They (and everybody else) have lost and continue to lose market share to Huawei short of these types of overt government interventions/market interventions.

>>That's why I don't invest in bonds or any investment that is denoted in dollars.

Most investments seem to eventually (?) denominate into USD equivalents, especially if you live in the US. Do you mean hard(er) assets like real estate or commodities (which also leaves me puzzled because they’re still typically denoted in an underlying fiat currency and especially USD if they’re domestic assets).
