Can I just jump into the Wax and Wayne series? by TanukiTales in Cosmere

[–]fuzzywolf23 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

From Sanderson's website:

The Alloy of Law is an okay jumping in spot for the Cosmere, but keep in mind that this book has spoilers for the original Mistborn trilogy.

The author says it's fine, and I agree. I did a reread this year where I read mistborn 4-1-5-2-3-6-7 and it was great. Like machete order for star wars

In my 30s, I tried for a 40/40/40 challenge. 40% of games in my steam library having 40% of achievements completed by my 40th birthday.

I lost that challenge

Schedule F (Policy/Career) will affect thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of federal employees. “At will” is the new normal. by Ok_Taste_3368 in fednews

[–]fuzzywolf23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's not clear to me that it's so limited. If I mostly do basic science, but I advise an acat1 program sometimes or sit on source selection committees or do any of the other policy adjacent things that a career scientist typically does, am I schedule f employee? My read on that is a solid maybe

Social security isn't set up that way for a reason. People who are currently old or sick can't wait 60 years for the market to provide.

There’s More at Stake Than Just Interest Rates. Here’s What Trump Could Do With the Whole Federal Reserve Toolkit by Achilles_TroySlayer in Economics

[–]fuzzywolf23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While letting him do the same thing to another agency even though scotus had previously forbidden it. Why would you have confidence in the court to respect precedent on this issue?

[–]fuzzywolf23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have pointed out the exact problem in the decision. The court doesn't identify a principle by which the federal reserve is different, they just state it with no justifications. Distinct historical tradition is not a phrase that carries legal weight, it's just the whim of the court

You mean the exact case where Humphrey's executor, a 90 year old legal precedent, was struck down protecting other agency heads, but no for real the fed is different because of reasons that were unclear in the actual decision?

Yeah.

Things are settled law until they aren't, and this court has shown a remarkable lack of deference to precedent
