이혜훈은 개인적으로 아주 싫어하는 정치인 유형인데
이재명 대통령이 쓰겠다면야 뭐...쓰읍...뭔가 생각이 있겠지 하는 중.

"내란 정당으로 날려버릴려는데 동앗줄이 이거란다"하면서 놀리는 상황이면 재미있겠는데...그건 아닌거같고.

I replaced my house's HVAC thermostat cable with one that has more wires in it (5 wire cable replaced with 8 wire), so I could connect the "C" wire and supply power to the thermostat. It only needs 6 wires for that, but since I'm pulling a new cable, might as well have some extra wires for future use.

I tried to use the old cable to pull the new cable, but I messed up and ended up having to pull the new cable without a guide. I wasn't able to do it on my own, but a fox friend came by to help and we got it done pretty quickly.

So now that the thermostat gets AC power and doesn't need batteries, the LCD screen's backlight stays on (dimly) all the time, which I like. And maybe I'll get a thermostat that can integrate with Home Assistant—one that works locally without any cloud requirement. Considering the Venstar T2000, but I haven't researched it too much yet.

上司選擇制

這種東西在普通公司很難推行吧,前提是員工去哪組都沒差,或者擁有不同崗位需要的技能

而且受歡迎上司的組別一定人滿為患,最後還是要先到先得。沒人去的組,大家也馬上會知道組長有問題

今天是侄女出生D6,感覺上已經過了好久,雖然每天數著日子,昨天一看月曆才驚覺「原來連一個禮拜都還不到」。這幾天總覺得侄女每天都有變化,我們對她的了解也是。以前看父母會辨別嬰幼兒發出的聲音是什麼意思,都覺得很神奇,現在想想可能就是這樣一天一天訓練出來的吧。

以前看聊齋誌異記一個小故事說,某人年邁無子,問高僧為何如此,高僧回答「汝不欠人者,人又不欠汝者,烏有子」?以前對這種欠債論不以為然,現在我也忍不住想,可能真的是某種欠債,才會讓人受到如此折磨仍然心甘情願覺得這小孩好可愛。在這世上要與人兩不相欠談何容易,古人真是異想天開,竟然覺得可以有一本帳本,計算我們和各種人的因緣是如何一借一還。

昨天下午和晚上分別與弟妹、我弟聊了各自的父母,覺得和他們的情感又加深了。

Today, that menu has expanded.

Companies can outsource jobs to other countries.

Artificial intelligence is replacing some types of work,
and other countries, like Japan,
have shown the possibilities of robotics.

But many services still require humans,
in person.

“If you’re an obstetrician, delivering a baby right in the moment,
you need hands to lay on the patient,”
said David Goldberg,
a vice president of Vandalia Health,
a network of hospitals and medical offices in West Virginia.

“It’s not the same as a banker,
or someone creating code.”

Nearly a fifth of nursing positions are currently vacant in West Virginia
— a state that is older,
sicker and poorer
than most
— and the state faces a serious shortage of physicians in the coming years.

The answer has been to look abroad.

A third of West Virginia’s physicians graduated from medical schools overseas.

Now that option is narrowing.

“We lost two cardiologists because of their concern that they wouldn’t get their visa
and, if they did,
that they would not be able to stay here permanently,”
Mr. Goldberg said.

“They went elsewhere.”

Similarly, nobody has figured out how to harvest delicate crops with machines.

During the
low-immigration 1970s,
some crops, like green onions,
disappeared from shelves or were imported instead.

“It’s not going to hop from the ground into a package without somebody’s hands being involved somewhere along the way,”
said Luke Brubaker,
who runs a dairy farm with his sons and a grandson in Pennsylvania.

To milk cows,
feed them and deliver calves,
he relies on more than a dozen foreign-born workers,
most of them Mexican.

He is not optimistic that he will be able to replace them.

“You can put an ad in the paper,” he said.

“Maybe you would have one American-born applying for that job if you need 10 people.

And that’s a maybe.”

For now, Mr. Brubaker can still find staff.

The surge of immigrants who entered the United States under President Biden
— more than eight million people
— means that many foreign-born workers are still available.

That surge helped create an
anti-immigrant backlash,
inflaming fears about crime and jobs.

It also stung immigrants who felt they had faced higher barriers than newer ones from places like Venezuela.

“The Mexican population felt that it was not fair,”
said Alfonso Medina,
who owns La Carreta,
a Tex-Mex restaurant in Marshalltown
started by his father,
a Mexican immigrant, in 2000.

“Imagine you’re here for 20, 30 years contributing.

And all of a sudden here comes this administration and starts letting people in right away with a permit.
They felt betrayed.”

In 2024, they shifted toward Mr. Trump.

Dan Simpson,
the chief executive of Taziki’s,
a fast casual Mediterranean restaurant chain based in the Southeast,
has been losing employees since the beginning of the year.

These were not only dishwashers and cooks
but also managers and assistant managers,
who had come to the United States with advanced degrees.

While he worries about the effect on his own business,
he believes that the damage could be much greater.

“If you zoom back,
the bigger problem is that we’re tarnishing the brand of America,”
Mr. Simpson said.

Even if the United States opens up again, he said,

“we’re going to need a campaign to fix the idea that America is not the land of opportunity.”

International students pay full-freight tuition
that helps fund new programs and basic costs at many U.S. colleges.

As international enrollment has dropped,
many schools are facing budget holes.

Nearly half of the immigrants who legally came to the United States from 2018 to 2022
were college educated,
according to the Migration Policy Institute,
a nonpartisan think tank.

Immigrants are far more likely than U.S. citizens to start businesses;

nearly half of this year’s Fortune 500 companies were founded by immigrants or the children of immigrants.

Several studies have found a decline in the number of patents issued for U.S. inventions after the immigration laws of the 1920s.

“You have an economy that is smaller,
less dynamic
and less diversified,”
said Exequiel Hernandez,
a professor at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.

Fascism, ICE, Case Dismissed Due To Lack Of Access to Counsel

LA Times: Federal judge dismisses indictment against TikToker shot by ICE, citing constitutional violations

"...“In short, because the deprivation of Mr. Parias’s access to counsel during the critical period prior to his trial caused him actual and threatened prejudice, and because no other remedy could adequately cure his deprivation, the court agrees with defendant that dismissal of the indictment is warranted,”..."
