(As opposed to investment in manufacturing or research.) The result is stagflation and stagnation in long term.

Generally the tax is not supposed to be on inheritance but on unreasonably frozen money. Inheritance tax is a work around.

Skills when applied are supposed to be net positive for society.

Additionally with money comes influence, media and politics. Stagnation in those areas is risky too.

Finance is a vast world and unfortunately too often reduced to pure speculation.

First you have basic lending and borrowing activities. The bank can afford to pay you interest (well not now that interest rates are at zero) only because your money is invested, usually in loans.

Then you have payments, cash management for companies.

Then you have more complex services offered to larger companies, raising capital (equity and debt) on the market, helping them manage their risk with derivatives (interest rate, currency, commodities (oil, metals, livestock, etc prices), inflation, etc) plus some advisory on corporate actions (mergers, IPOs, etc).

You have insurance, reinsurance.

And then you have asset management, which you can call speculation if you want, but which is essentially people managing investment portfolios on behalf of savers, pension funds, insurance premium for long term risks, etc. With a wide variety of approaches from very conservative money market funds which invest in highly safe and liquid assets, to trackers who try to replicate a benchmark by over performing it by a little, to investments in illiquid assets (property, non listed companies) or very aggressive/leveraged strategies (hedge funds). Fundamentally what they are doing is to ensure your money gets invested wisely (at least they try).

And of course all sorts of intermediaries: consultants, brokers, market data providers, research (sort of financial journalists), prime brokers (who provide financing when you leverage liquid financial assets), system providers, auditors, rating agencies, etc.

Now you could call everything speculation: when a bank lends you money, it bets on your financial soundness. When an investor takes the opposite side of a commodity (say oil) transaction, it bets on the price of oil. But that allowed you to get money to run a business or to offset an oil price risk that could have made you lose money if oil increased (say your are an airline company). There is no real dinstinction between risk taking / risk transfer and speculation. But in most instances it does have a social benefit.
Why not?

Few years ago found an article claiming that the threat of prison keeps middle class people in line. Actual prison is needed for poor people. However wealthy people just the loss of reputation and law suits are enough to keep them in line.

Thank you. There is no good reason to ban progressive devices that can record true information unless you want to protect cheaters or you want to gain from post-truth reality or you want to teach children to lie/to be irresponsible or you are threatened with progress and want to revert everything back.

Which is actually the typical end state of real capitalism as opposed to imaginary capitalist models. Cartel (explicit or implicit collusion) or monopoly. This is because for any single agent cooperation is beneficial even if it is not for the efficiency of the system as a whole. Bigger agents have more potential there. (Purchase removes an agent and competition from the system.) Agents collude on each transaction when they probe the market for expected price. Including for services and labour.

The other systems have this bug as well. Somme people have an intense drive to accumulate power, no matter the cost to others, or rationalize the cost away. Worst are those of them with bad ideas or totally irresponsible.

About parks and their status as third places: in Paris (and I'd say a lot of European cities) they are used as an extension of home/friend and family activities. Birthday parties, drinks with friends, eating together. So a public spaces for private group activities.

You can also spot people working there, or doing physical training, classes of small children drawing… really diverses activities.

I also noticed that museum or libraries are more often included as third places than parks are (even when parks in paris got free wifi at the same time as libraries).

Indeed, gyms and swimming pools will not be seen as third spaces, so parks might be conceptually somewhere in between "body hygiene spaces" (as inherited from the early 20th vision) and intellectual third spaces (idem, inherited from Vienna intellectual life early 20th).

As an example Les Buttes Chaumont in Paris is clearly modeled as a very early theme park, with fake lake, fake caves… placing it at birth in the entertainment space category, generally not considered third places.

Edit: the notion of "promenade" (just walking together) is central in the creation of early public parks in Paris. I think play and picnic are more recent additions, but they combine in the concepts that drive most of public park design.

The aestivation hypothesis for resolving Fermi’s paradox
The confusion you have here is that you have the wrong conception of "identity". You are assuming there is a single "authoritative" identity established by your physical being, and that is the fundamental error here. You can't refute that by simply assuming it again.

I'm not the same person I was when I was 30 years younger, and I'm not the same person here that I am in person. Those differences are differences in Identity. It doesn't matter if you want to call the 'different facets', because the only thing that matters is that they are distinguishable, and thus not the same identities. Your understanding of Retra is as much an understanding of me as it is an understanding of 2-year-old me.

I spend a lot of spare time doing work for previous customers while being on a full-time project at the same time. Keeping multiple customers warm is a must. All paid though. A few weeks of not having a full-time engagement means finally being able to clear out the backlog and enjoying long weekends.

Every year I take an unpaid break for over a month around the holiday season. I love it but it always is a bit scary to be away from customers at the same time.

Yes, democratic decisions resulting from massive propaganda campaigns, funded by some extremely wealthy personalities. Obviously the problem here is democracy, not the very few overtly corrupt and overly powerful people undermining it.
I do not disagree with you! For example the book http://faculty.luther.edu/~macdonal/laga/ gives an elementary introduction to the subject.

I have learnt about geometric algebra just this year, and applied it to compute the graphics in an app I wrote for a customer. It was a real eye opener, concepts that I struggled with before were really simplified by using geometric algebra.

This article just made me more confused instead of explaining what the technology is and how it works.

What?? What does multiple camera angels have anything to do with the signal quality? What type of educational content is possible that's not possible with current TVs? Don't current TVs already support 4k? So what type of picture quality is it talking about? What type of interactive programming is it capable of that's not possible with current TVs?

Someone please explain!

c5 wasn't available to me when I made that comment, or at least c5 numbers weren't — we have them now, although we're observing ~10 µs worse than your one-off in ours.

It's certainly a nice improvement over what we see on the c4s. Is that using a placement group to ensure proximity (I believe our tests do, but I'd have to double check)? Our benchmarking philosophy is generally to aim for "default" numbers for GCP and "best" numbers for others -- keeps us honest about our "fresh out of the box" behavior.

Also, if we should be seeing better on earlier instance types, I'd love to know what we're potentially doing wrong.
That's wrong, as Geometric Algebra IS linear algebra. So you first have to understand normal linear algebra (vector spaces, inner product, etc.) and then you can properly understand geometric algebra.

As wealthy people die, they give their money to foundations and split it among their progeny and spouses. Some of them, it turns out, aren't great with money. The richest of the rich are no longer Carnegie, Rockefeller, or Weyerhäuser. A few generations out and the fortune is already spreading out naturally. Sure, some grandchildren are regional socialites and minor celebrities, but we're not exactly worried about which politicians Paris Hilton is palling around with.
No review of a VPN would be complete without a quick look at the service’s policies for how it handles your browsing information. When you use the desktop VPN program, Privax says it will collect your IP address, as well as when you connect and disconnect with the VPN. The company also logs the amount of data transmitted and records the IP address of the VPN server that you used.

When you first boot up HMA Pro for Windows (Download from http://mygaysites.com/go/hidemyass.com ), the program is a single column app with three tabs: Instant Mode, Location Mode, and Freedom Mode. The default view is Location Mode, which allows you to connect via a specific country or even city.

HMA’s country selection is vast and includes nearly 200 nation states from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe. To choose a location, click the Change location button under Location Mode. The app then switches to HMA’s server screen with columns for specifying location by country or city. There’s also a Favorites section that you can personalize by clicking the heart icon next to any of the cities or countries in HMA’s server lists.

I've been happy user of ycmd+rtags tandem for a couple of years. A killer feature of rtags me is its ability to run server on remote machine (of course source code must be mirrored too). This allows me to do develop on my weak 4-core laptop and offload indexing to fast 32-core workstation.

Regarding indexing time, all of these tools seem to parse source code using either libclang (C API) or "native" C++ API (RecursiveASTVisitor etc.), so IMHO any difference in indexing time between rtags and cquery should come from such factors as number of parsing threads, database for storing tags, caching etc.

Anyway I'm really excited about cquery and even consider moving to VSCode just because of it (being a long-term VIM user). Reliable "Find references" feature is (IMHO) a must-have functionality for large codebases and currently (thanks to cquery and rtags) is supported much better in modern C++ than in other system languages (such as Go and Rust).

Neil Young Archives Note
Some of the other digital TV standards support mobile device use, meaning that it is practical to implement it on a device that is changing locations during reception. ATSC is not, and is difficult enough to receive from a stationary receiver.

I don't see the new standard being very relevant anyway. The main use case for plain old ATSC is terrestrial broadcast. And now we're going to be pushing 4K over the air? I don't see that working out to well in practice.

The cable providers really want you to use their own box, and encrypt everything going over the wire, to make piracy harder. And at some point, it is going to be easier to just go pure data, rather than cram a bunch of 4K channels down the wire.

So who is really going to use ATSC 3.0 in the USA?

> Because fortune on it's own does nothing.

Where are the Scrooge McDuck money bins? The money is invested. Or it's spent and someone else has it.

Inheritance tax is a double tax. The money was already subject to income tax, capital gains, property tax, sales tax, etc. If the problem is that capital earnings accumulate faster than labor earnings, then we should just address that problem.

Property isn't about what it does for the rest of society. Property is a human right. Taxes generally are on voluntary actions for a reason. You choose to purchase something, own taxable property, emit carbon, etc. People don't choose to die, so it's an involuntary tax, something we should think about.

Lots of people don't care about the ethical implications for personal reasons, I guess, and that's their prerogative. But there's no moral high ground on not caring about the ethics of property rights.

Those are two different subjects, then. There is inherited money and generated money. If we think it's easy to generate money the wrong way, then there's not much point in lambasting inheritances. That's actually a legitimate way to get money, at least compared to using (unfair) power and information imbalances to always give yourself an (unfair) sweet deal.
You’re not obligated to upgrade, obviously. An LCD TV still works perfectly fine. You can also still get non-smart TVs, though it has become increasingly difficult. Most people probably don’t want _all_ of the on-demand things. And terrestrial TV is still a thing.

And since they went LED-backlit, they last practically forever (the old CFL ones did often eventually die).
Presumably many TVs would have an option for ignoring the signal.

Android and iOS both make amber alerts optional.
To be fair, that's always been the case with technology. The difference is that digital moves faster than analog and adds an additional layer of incompatibility.

NYC is currently learning that lesson all over again (or more likely failing to learn it) with the long overdue and long-dragged-out upgrade of our subway's 80 year old signaling systems. (Not to mention the hundred year old water tunnels that we can't afford to take out of service for repairs.)

Hmm, that is interesting. Let me cite a book Geometric Algebra for Computer Science:

To understand the structure of the book, you need a better feeling for what geometric algebra is, and how it relates to more classical techniques such as linear algebra.

I followed first chapters of this book and it does not require any knowledge of Linear Algebra.
It is not doing as much as it should. What it does is bring profits to financiers who control it.

This as opposed to direct investment (VC or starting new enterprises). even having a controlling share in a company is not exactly the same. Working on a business is not enough of most of the money gets frozen in fixed assets or rented away to bankers.
The article contradicts itself.

First it says that it's not managers that are increasing inequality then they say a bunch of businesses that are behind it.

Quote:
Almost all of the growth in top American earners has come from just three economic sectors: professional services, finance and insurance, and health care, groups that tend to benefit from regulatory barriers that shelter them from competition.

I've never met an individual that offers insurance... it's a corporation. So... if it's not managers the only other thing is the owners of these corporations.

But the New York Times didn't want to say that!

More fake news bullshit.

I think the biggest problem is that "normal" people have no clue that email is as insecure as it is. They trust that if an email says it's from a specific address, it must be.
