Another thing that might make definitions tricky: knowing your customers' desires and catering to their individual preferences is an important part of providing good service. Or at least it is when a person does it. Although, people can certainly be manipulative too.

Maybe one of the issues is that some forms of personalizations are hidden? A billboard is obvious to everyone. When an ad is seen by people who are not its target, this raises awareness of what's going on.

Interesting thing is that last line above. Did not see it before when using this program.
Any society wants some level of censorship, and tends to want it strongly enough to override any Constitution or similar document that says they should have it. Once the system is in place for the kinds of censorship that the majority of society wants, it becomes far easier for someone to expand it. Censorship is so nice when you are in power getting what you want censored that people don't consider what happens when the powers that be no longer represent their interest.
Right, the IRS will actually owe the resident money, i.e. a refund. Trouble is, the IRS often has access to only a subset of deductions and/or circumstantial life information, so it’s likely they would undercalculate the refund owed to an impoverished resident.

The status quo is that residents must either (a) do nothing and receive a fine, or (b) file their taxes, explicitly opting in to any refund programs they qualify for. Whereas the implication of this change would necessitate the impoverished resident to either (a) do nothing and likely miss an underreported refund, or (b) file their taxes, basically, explicitly opting into any refund programs that were missed.

It basically hides the penalty of not filing in savings missed.

It certainly changes the calculus of the question of morality. Which case is better for the impoverished resident? It’s not a simple question.

"The datasheet describes it as a 6502 instruction set, with an X register but no Y, and just 69 "instructions" (presumably opcodes, of which the 6502 has 151). It has a banked ROM architecture and just 128 bytes of RAM at $80 through $FF which "includes stack" - so page one is folded onto page zero presumably."
This is a very common issue, but I'd rather the IRS did 95% of my tax return, sent it to me, and gave me the opportunity to say, "actually, here's my cost basis on that 1099" before me approving it.

As far as I know, revolut does not offer full support for cryptocurrencies. When you buy a cryptocurrency from revolut, you get an IOU. In other words, you can use revolut to invest in a cryptocurrency, but you can not actually use the cryptocurrency you have in your wallet to buy something.

Also, the exchange rate is a tiny bit worse than the major exchanges. The real service revolut offers here is an incredibly easy way to invest in cryptocurrencies, for people who do not want to deal with the friction of getting real cryptos.

The reason it is like that is because the IRS does NOT have all the data. They want to make sure you are reporting everything as you should be.
And that you had the discipline not to spend it.
I screwed up on my taxes last year (read the tax wrong off the table) and the IRS kindly noticed and gave me the $100 extra in my refund.

For any markdown file on Gitlab, you can look at the raw version: https://gitlab.com/iblech/tor-appeal/raw/master/README.md

That's also not a trick you need to memorize or something - if you load a markdown page on Gitlab without Javascript, it won't render, but you can still click on the button to view it raw, and that button is clearly labeled with semantic HTML that will be accessible to any web browser that can handle a link tag. You do need to be able to handle HTTPS encryption, but that's another debate - most raw text documents are also going to be served over HTTPS anyway.

And of course, from the Javascript side of things, the vast majority of Gitlab's front-end is open source and all of their Javascript is served from their own servers without any third-party trackers or ads. So no worries on that front.

I get that people get annoyed about aggressive and unnecessary useage of Javascript and some choose for ethical reasons not to run proprietary code. I am all for accommodating you. But Gitlab does accommodate you. There has to be at least a little bit of effort put in on both sides here. Otherwise sites are just going to throw up their hands and say, "well nothing pleases these people, why should we bother?"

Gitlab does a great job of accommodating people who want access to raw text while also accommodating people who want to be able to do basic layout. And the approach of sites like this have significantly encouraged devs to use markdown more - if this was a static site, or something exported out from Org-mode, or even just a rendered Markdown file, you wouldn't have access to the original raw text version.

The only reason you have access to the raw text is because the uploader chose to serve the raw text and then handle rendering clientside instead of serverside. If you want to be able to read more content in Markdown form, Gitlab is your friend, not your enemy.
Regarding the memory size limit: unlike the 15" macbooks, ThinkPads use ram sticks that you might change/upgrade in the future.

I am telling this because the 64GB upper limit is likely to be due to current ram stick size availability. This also happened with the X220/T420 series, that were sold as supporting up to 8GB ram but only because there were no 8GB memory sticks.

When such sticks became available, those model supported them, and it was possible to have a ThinkPad X220 with 16GB of ram (I had one).

So the same might happen with the P1
Another question I would invite you to ask yourself is what do you wish to accomplish by publishing? A professional academic is required to publish a lot of papers in their career and this means that not all papers are necessarily going to be paid attention to, some have impact, many don't.

A lot of papers, most papers I read in CS, involve incremental advances of a given technique. Usually the papers involve describing the problem, the describing how it's solved so far, describing how their solution is different and only then providing particular, computational details of the method.

And my impression is this incremental style comes because most researchers do incremental research, extending the ideas and approaches of mentors or colleagues.

Which is to say, if you, an outsider like myself, have a good idea for, say, a new algorithm, it might be useful to write a blog entry explaining it's value aside from any paper you write.

And as said elsewhere, avoid "predatory" journals - they apparently don't give credibility or get attention.

There are many issues that are in similar spots. The go to strategy to deal with those has been to either:

(1) ignore it completely if it's not getting sufficient media coverage to cause outrage or
(2) control the coverage by making it seem as if the public is divided, typically using various forms of poor (but effective) arguments, statistically invalid polling, and research that only gets published if it produces the desired result

I'd say this falls into the first category.
Ask HN: Any game devs who switched from business apps dev?
Any game devs here who started off building standard business apps? If so, would you say you became a better dev or more passionate about the craft i.e. software dev? Things learned or unlearned. Looking to know of the contrast between these two dev fields that are in my opinion a world apart. What were your challenges during this switch and your learnings? Would you ever want to go back to building business apps or is this (game dev) a career of a lifetime?
The best advice I can give to a soon to be parent. There is no single program that guarantees happy/productive/well adjusted kids and specifically adolescents. The biggest surprise with children is just how different they all are, even when raised in similar environments. Children can be certainly derailed by a poor upbringing, but that doesn't mean that they are always properly molded by a 'good' upbringing.

I'm not sure why the parents didn't take a harder line earlier in the process, but I have my suspicions. By the time a child is 15, parenting tends to become more results oriented. They are going to be on their own legally inside of 3 years, and parents have to take the training wheels off. Kelly's parents may have been attempting to get her to see the deleterious effects of the phone. If an 8 year old is spending too much time on screens, you take them away. By 15 Kelly's parents probably want her to take more ownership over behavior. The parents can point to the failing grades, lack of social progress, and missed opportunities and say "are you proud of this? Is this what you want?" Some kids have to learn things the hard way via personal experience rather than parental instruction. Parents may want their kids to make this sorts of mistakes before adulthood hits them and raises the stakes. After all, the real world has phones without any screen time limits.
Good grief, doesn't anyone on HN understand context any more? The top-level post here is "The new riddle of INDUCTION". When I use the word "induction" I mean what it means in the title, which is explained at great length in the paper. I mean this:

Example: I usually do not vote in the party primaries in my state, because the party that primary voters selected is public. Mostly, I don't want to get tagged by Big Data as having a political affiliation.

These combine with "at will" employment such that I could be fired for voting in the "wrong" primary for my company, with no laws broken. I'm not saying it has ever happened, but it could. Murphy's Law provides the rest.

In the general election, the only public information is whether I voted or not. So I vote as I please. I can still be fired for wearing only the minimum required amount of flair, but at least that's not interfering with democracy.

Public votes can also be sold. If you say you'll pay me $X if I vote for Y, making the Y vote public means they buyer can know that they got what they paid for.

Zelle is one of those things that is great but I apparently live in the corner case of everything...

For instance, I have accounts at three different credit unions but I only have one mobile phone number (and Zelle insists on having that phone number). So far as I can tell, I can't register with Zelle at all three credit unions, only one. And leaving the first and signing up at the second requires manual intervention.

Also, I apparently can't use Zelle to transfer money to myself. (This seems to be a limitation of all person-to-person systems, where I can't be the owner of the source and destination accounts.) So, right now, the fastest way for me to move money between two credit union accounts is to go stand at an ATM, withdraw cash with one card, and deposit it with another.
> 2) Sadly, a flip-phone is a sign of poor status and it invites bullying at school.

It would be great if there were a way to flip this, so that having a flip-phone were seen as a sign of having super high-tech parents who could afford any phone but chose to get this instead.

I live in Silicon Valley and am curious to see what happens when my daughter starts school. I'm sure there are other parents who will want to keep their kids off devices, and many of them would be very wealthy. I'm terrible at branding, but this seems like a branding challenge. Like if you're the kind of parent who would enroll your kid in an SAT class or after-school tutoring, this is a thing that will have more impact on their eventual growth.

> Third, per the indictment this was a part of an ongoing Russian campaign, so it is hard to imagine the Russians named were "encouraged" to engage in behavior they were already engaged in.

This part confuses me. Is it not possible to encourage someone to do something if they're already in the process of doing so?

I think the only part of this puzzle that's in contention is if the public statement directly led to the hack of the emails taking place, as in a cause and effect thing:

1. Hack the servers.

2. Okay, the servers are now hacked.

But what the encouragement statement might have done instead is:

1. The servers are being hacked.

2. "... I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing ..." (encouragement/invitation).

3. The servers are now hacked.

So the statement that you had an issue with isn't wrong, technically or in spirit.

And this part:

> Finally, this would be very foolish of Trump. That's not to say he can't be foolish, but it does suggest that we should think twice about such an interpretation

is more frustrating than anything else. Based on part actions and statements, I disagree with being charitable and trying to find good interpretations. I would only agree on being charitable if he had been reading off of the teleprompter or a written statement, because that's when Trump actually appears composed.

It's really a form of self-regulation - you fill in a form - but you need to justify why you think the app will function as you have said it will, and why that's correct in the first place. We built a chain of documentation. Why do we think the hardware does what we coded? Why do we think what we coded was what we designed? Why do we think what we designed matches what we understand about the clinical policy? Why do we think we understand the clinical policy correctly? Why do we think the clinical policy is correct? For each of those questions we provided evidence and argument.

It looks like the process has been refined since we did it

Regarding APIs: Let us use access keys that limit what the API can see/do. I don't like that Mint can do almost anything to my account by virtue of having a password. I just want to be able to reliably collect transaction and/or balance information, nothing more (which is already a lot, but I manually or semi-automatically collect this at the moment rather than using an API).

Let the user generate an API key that is (somehow) transmitted to the application with limited access. Then the user, at the bank's site, can revoke these authentications at any time. Stopped using YNAB? Revoke its key. Stopped using Mint? Revoke its key. Started using gnucash? Add a key.
Yeah but I wasnt impressed with the quality when I looked at them. Im talking about paying good writers and illustrators to do stuff students would actually want to buy. Then, price it affordably. Maybe even tiered with a default price plus discounts for smaller institutions.
Interesting. Appreciate the insights!
I'm willing that in the vast majority of cases they do, and the small minority of cases where they don't isn't a good enough reason to not do this. Especially because, if you do fall into that case, you can just file your taxes as normal.
Does explanatory theory make use of observation? Because based on the the wiki page for inductive reasoning, if you use observations for evidence, then you are using inductive reasoning to some capacity.

I would settle for a list of data that they do have. I hate looking for every form and hoping it is complete and correct.

I just got a surprise from last year that a 401(k) rollover was (incorrectly) filed to the IRS as a distribution. No tax form was sent to me, but the IRS knew all about it and sends me a letter saying I owe them several thousand, interest is accruing and penalties are about to start. They had this data at tax time and I could have fixed it all before filing.
Flat tax doesn't even simplify anything. The problem with taxes is to determine what the taxable income is. Figuring out the tax rate is trivial once you have that, no matter what the curve is. Flat tax is just another attempt to give big tax breaks to higher incomes.
There already are such. One example is Alliant Credit Union, which is where my main US account lives.

Absolutely its complete BS. All companies use ERP systems like SAP and PeopleSoft which already calculate all of the complicated rules, so any changes to tax law are vetted (hopefully) by tax professionals and software engineers before release.

For your method to work you need to add the time spent at speed, not the miles covered.

In your proposed solution, the first mile takes two minutes, and the second mile forty seconds. That's 2:40 to cover two miles, or an average speed of 45 MPH.

>Consider when evaluating these schemes whether there is any benefit or upside at all over good old fashioned unhackable paper.

Just because there is no immediate benefit doesn't mean there won't one day be benefit. Initial versions of many forms of technology were near useless and only became better after refinement. Just look at how useless the original electric cars were. But electronic voting, if someone could make it safe and secure, could have benefits we can't recognize.

The risk is implementing an incomplete system and the very likely possibility that any government attempt will be very lacking (and often filled with the standard amount of corrupt in similar large IT projects). I would not support removing the paper process currently, but I would support development going into electronic voting so that one day the technology will be mature enough for us to see benefits that current paper voting can't provide.

A few examples of what may one day be possible is massively lowering the cost to vote (for many poor people getting a few hours off of work to go vote ends up costing them far more than they value their vote being worth), making it possible to do voting a more regular event which would allow more direct democratic versions of government, the ability to have something we can trust more than slips of paper that have to be hand tallied (current systems are far less trustable, but future systems may be able to become more trustable than paper).
