Things generally not known by the government: deductions & credits you are eligible to take, any changes to your marital status, changes to your address. Often your government cannot find you, has no idea if you're still single/married/widow, and doesn't have the data for credit eligibility. Besides, you're also assuming perfectly accurate reporting of all data elements on income reporting documents by all payers and employers. We don't even have that now.

It is a nice idea but in practice it would just overcomplicate things. Changing up the Internal Revenue Code is a better way forward.
What’s up with convolution and attention? Like in general, what’s their relationship.
Yeah, you're definitely not alone. I don't substitute similar words that often, but I do garble sentences to an extreme more than I'd like to. It ends up sounding like word substitution, but completely nonsensical.

>I think that when I'm speaking, I want to say words faster than my brain can build a sentence.

That's pretty much what it feels like in my case.

>I'm suspecting that working on a computer for so many years might be the issue, where I spend most of my time speaking via a keyboard.

Same. My history includes fairly extreme real life social isolation for about 15-20 years. Didn't have any friends I'd see in person on any sort of regular basis during that time, including my entire adolescence.

As such, my good friends that I talk to on a daily basis have historically been remote. Communicating with them has always been about 80% keyboard and 20% voice. In terms of voice, it's always been push-to-talk out of preference. Unlike open mics (think phone calls or default Skype settings), PTT allows you to mull over your reply quite a bit more without it being considered awkward. Combine that with typing being the preferred method of communication otherwise—which allows even more time to formulate a reply—and it's little wonder.

Some other components that likely play a part include being less comfortable than an average person in many social situations and at times poor eye contact. It almost feels like the verbal centers of my brain are rendered dumb due to a combination of having to come up with things to say faster, and processing facial expressions/body language (which historically wasn't required very often). It's not surprising that it goes hand-in-hand with not really being able to get the word in edgewise most of the time, nor being particularly good at thinking up new topics of conversation when engaging in small talk.

Despite being extremely social in person the last couple years, it still persists, though usually it's the worst at the beginning of a conversation. That may have to do with difficulty switching from my internal voice (which is usually fast) to actually verbalizing things.

If it's any sort of meaningful conversation in a relaxed environment, there's rarely any problem. Likewise if it's people I'm already comfortable with. Alcohol tends to make the problem evaporate—even with strangers. My theory is it simultaneously slows me down a bit and lowers my speaking inhibitions considerably, killing off the over-analysis and mental/verbal speed mismatch that garbles sentences in the first place.

>So I'm asking for your help, to know if I'm the only one, if this is something known, if this something that can be fixed, and how.

Ultimately I think it's a latency thing. Some people aren't used to the lower reply latency that in-person interactions require.

Practice makes perfect I guess. Just keep talking to people in person more. I'm trying to do the same.
Yea still... "Try our product because we're great and we'll annoy the crap out of you until you do" might be a good way to mind-worm the advertising into someone but it doesn't exactly engender good will.

It's like one of those companies that feels the right to force a full page ad on websites that needs to stay up for x seconds, or requires some special user interaction. It is (very unfortunately) effective and making people remember your brand but people hate you for it.
No, he was required to get pre-approval even if he was repeating previously released information verbatim. They probably wouldn't have caught him if he was actually repeating it verbatim, but he still would have been breaking the requirement to get pre-approval.

> According to Tesla’s Policy, any edits to a pre-approved Written Communication or even releasing a verbatim pre-approved Written Communication more than two days after it has been pre-approved requires that the pre-approval be reconfirmed. Even if the exact substance of the 7:15 tweet had been pre-approved 20 days before, Musk cannot credibly claim that he thought he was not required to obtain pre-approval again under the plain terms of the Policy. In fact, the written communication in the 7:15 tweet was not pre-approved 20 days earlier or at any time. Musk’s claim that he thought he was simply restating information from the January 30 communications is not credible.

#3 is actually wrong. The results of Recht et al. do not show that people are performing validation on the test set. If this were true, one would expect a poor correlation between accuracy on the original CIFAR-10 test set and the new test set, whereas the authors observe an extremely high correlation. The results actually indicate that attempting to follow the same dataset collection procedures as the creators of CIFAR-10 results in a dataset that is slightly harder than the original dataset (at least for models trained on the original dataset). The follow-up paper (http://people.csail.mit.edu/ludwigs/papers/imagenet.pdf) makes this point explicitly. The fact that the relative ordering of models is preserved on the new dataset suggests that the creators of the models didn't cheat, or at least didn't cheat enough to invalidate CIFAR-10 test set performance as an evaluation metric.

On the iPhone you did pinch to zoom, and on the other smartphones, you were served the WAP version of the page, or you could browse the full page with the scrollwheel.

That's a very revisionist version of events. Much of the initial disillusionment around the web on featurephones came from WAP being (mis)sold as the Internet on a phone.

If you go back and watch the original iPhone demo you can see that people were genuinely wowed by being able to browse the Internet ('the real internet') on a mobile.

The ultrawealthy are certainly more segregated, but for upper-middle-class it's not unusual to see a factor of 10x difference in household income in the same neighborhood (e.g. $25-30k per year for a single parent or retiree vs $250-$300k per year total for two married professionals).

[edit]

For some data, you can look at primary school districts (which are almost always geographically assigned in the US, and are usually much smaller than secondary school districts). They tend to have statistics on percentage of students that qualify for government subsidized meal programs, which is a good proxy for poverty. I'm well above this line, but have lived in districts where the numbers were as high as 91% and as low as 5%.
Have a good point, I didn't consider it that way.
> So in case anyone just panicked thinking “Wait, so do my car and office windows block cancer producing UV or not??”

I just figured automotive glass doesn't block UV (or at least all of it) since window tinting places always advertise UV blocking as a feature of their films. Cynically I know it could be just empty marketing, but it didn't seem like it.
Looks like I have to remap some of the controls anyway, since CTL + left mouse = right mouse with mac mouse. The fundamental problem is, I want to be able to click and drag to move circuit or click and drag to create circuit. You have to signal which one of those you want, you can only have one default so to speak (and right click is taken for delete).

I definitely have not implemented a way to zoom in the game, so if it wasn't browser zoom I am thoroughly confused. I will check if there is some way to turn that off. Making level 1 clearer and making the "exit component factory" more visible are good ideas!

I'm not seeking to defend Reagan's policies but I'm curious when did David Stockman said Trickle Down in the Atlantic? Was it their policy during the administration as trickle down is characterized?

He is a political pundit who was trying to rebut a (now) common political myth. The fact he parroted it back in an article a decade or two later doesn't mean it was the policy of the executive branch or any economist.

Which is entirely the point.
>I assume this gets to the heart of why anyone would 'downvote' me here for asking for simple information, there's a strict anti-intellectual force on HN that has a problem with anyone digging in to what "austerity" actually means.

Yes, I found your downvotes disappointing too! Chin up, the votes often seem to get better over time, as remedial voting is done - i.e. voting up of greyed-out things when you wouldn't bother usually etc. Who cares anyway. You're asking uncommon questions on here perhaps, and surprised they're downvoted? Complaining about voting gets you more downvotes, rightly so.

The only reason I can think of is that you wrote 'stupidly', and read very quickly your comment looks like a complaint about the article. Maybe if you'd put more of this detail in the initial comment.

p.s. Be very careful of nursing political conspiracy theories on here. ("there's a strict anti-intellectual force on HN that ..") People are convinced HN is right wing, left wing, and everything in between, and are totally certain of that. The political topics do tend to be more..careless and loose on here, perhaps unsurprisingly.

Thanks so much for this detailed feedback on the website and our design flow. It's really valuable to get an honest critique of how people find using the site.

These questions/issues of navigation, landing page, structure are all things we're grappling with at the moment and have been making small tweaks then reviewing what difference this makes to how visitors explore.

The rationale for highlighting media coverage and academic citations of our work near the top of the landing was to highlight that we're a trusted source for many publications (and actually from media on both the right and left). Credibility and trust are of course important to our work. But it's interesting to hear it wasn't an important factor for you as a visitor.

Thanks again for your thoughts. We're working on all of this at the moment, and will incorporate all of these suggestions into our discussions of how to do this best.

Rent control is a bandaid that tries to fix fundamental systemic flaws and lack of planning by society.

Problems:

They do mention Oregon's land use laws. I didn't see it while skimming but (for west coast states) the land that is actually "state" instead of federal is also an issue (#1).

However the biggest issue is that the Supply vs Demand curves for housing are simply insane.

Demand is mostly dictated by jobs, and only slightly moderated by the quality of public transit and transportation infrastructure (mass transit AND freeways/parking included).

As a nation the US has been housing constrained for at least 20 years, probably longer.

Worse for a generation or two housing has been used as an investment rather than the cost center that it is; so all sorts of market incentives are massively messed up.

Finally "career" jobs, which allow someone to live in the same house for their entire adult life more or less began a long slow death in the 1980s, which is the true beginning of the destruction of communities.

Solutions to consider:

Tax, based on land use opportunity cost/value. This should have a built in history consideration that gradually introduces rising land use potential over a number of years. (E.G. sliding window over 10 or 20 years)

Tax, transparently, to fund infrastructure, and provide a place (website?) where someone can go to see what their tax dollars are actually being spent on. How they are getting value for services.

Zone and re-zone and do urban development more like Japan (#2) and Europe (? speculation) do; based on nuisance level.

Encourage, via help with red-tape, ignoring local opposition when exceeding code requirements, and co-coordinating funding and insurance bids for projects, that there is ample supply on the market to reach the desired rental price for an area. If builders don't want to service an area help local benefit corporations get started to fulfill this need.

Raise the building codes and promote buildings that are designed to last, be safe and comfortable to live in, and which encourage privacy at home while being responsible to the community around them.

Design transportation in city cores more like the Caves of Steel, and provide civic infrastructure (monitored parking garages/etc) at the edges to interface with the exterior world.

Before I got into tech, I worked as a full-time tutor with high school and middle school students for a few years. That was the best practice for improving my ability to explain things. I usually think about the meta-game of improving in roughly three different ways:

1. Explaining many things to many people: you really get good at thinking on your feet, reading how well different people understand things, and coming up with new ways of explaining things. It forces you to be flexible, and you can build a general framework for walking through something new.

2. Explaining many things to one person: you learn to see how that person learns. What kind of prior knowledge do they have, and how do they like to work through understanding something new? You can tailor your explanations to them, and since explaining requires a lot of active listening to make sure the person is with you, you can get much better at identifying when they're lost so you can circle back.

3. Explaining the same thing to many people: you hone your explanation skill for that one thing. Once you've explained the concept to multiple people, you can see what works and what doesn't work. You understand the sticking points, the easy parts, the analogies that work, and the ones that don't. Having multiple students working on the same concept at the same time would be great! I'd have to work harder for the first student, but by the end of the week I'd have it down pat.

For me, it came down to practice, repetition, and really knowing the material. Striking the balance between explaining and active listening for ~8 hours a day was a fantastic way to get better, and I don't think I'll ever forget how to walk someone through the tricky parts of AP Calculus. Now that I'm far from the tutoring world, I try to practice by writing and will try to keep that part of my brain active in the future through some sort of teaching.

I'd recommend practicing as much as you can. Keep practicing your explanations and active listening with your daughter. As another user said, make sure you know the material. Walk through it yourself, and try a dry run of explaining some math. I recommend explaining to a pet, which is the equivalent of rubber duck debugging. You won't get the feedback, but you'll be able to think it through first, which absolutely helps. Writing also doesn't offer you a similar feedback loop, but it does force you to walk through your thoughts and identify any missing parts of your own understanding.

Disclaimer: I mostly worked 1:1 with students. Managing an entire classroom is an entirely different beast!

Especially in the case of contempt of court. The whole reason why you'd hold someone in contempt is if they are willfully not doing what the court says. The SEC is telling the court "Look, he's literally here talking about how he doesn't respect us. He's willingly doing this."
> it's not in the EU, it's much more capitalist than the rest of Europe

There are certainly more capitalist places in Europe than Switzerland. Ireland, the Netherlands or Luxembourg come to mind.

>and certainly not a country that's following the current downward socialist path to Venezuela-style hell many other European countries are on.

I haven't noticed any oil socialist republics in Europe lately. Though a lot of countries indeed are on a downward path, but more akin to America's. Ie. the great dumbfuck uprising.

>If anything Switzerland is closer in spirit to the US than most other European countries.

Switzerland is closer to the countries it borders than any other place, and by a long shot.

And in any case there are still big engineering projects all over the continent. The Lyon-Turin railway project includes a 57km tunnel being dug, but it's now threatened by the current Italian government (we're coming back to the dumbfuck uprising).

It seems like there are a lot of parallels between agents and core.async.

Agents, like go blocks, run in a thread pool. Any blocking IO should be pushed off to a separate thread outside of the thread pool. In the case of agents, there is (send-off). In the case of core.async, there is (thread)

By the way, thank you for posting the article, it was a great write-up and an enjoyable read.

> Nobody's claiming the annualized number is a lie.

I was talking about whether "Musk meant the annualized number." is true or a lie.

> The claim is the original post is wrongly saying 500k total for the year and wasn't run past someone else like Musk promised he would for all Tesla related statements.

The agreement was that he would get approval for posts with material information.

If he's citing a number everyone already knows from the public report, then it's not material information. (except in some kind of unreasonably-broad sense that would make "Tesla makes cars." an offending tweet)

So if he says 500k, and he's talking about the annualized number in the previous public report, then there is a strong argument that he doesn't need approval.

If he says 500k and it's not annualized, then it's a new number, and he does need approval.

Uhm, obviously. But it turns out there's other constraints too. Like whether optimizing for that to a significant degree in each application is worthwhile and/or realistically being done. And latency is a thing either way. It's extremely rare to not have briefly idle connections in OLTP context, even more so if the app code isn't heavily optimized for it (but even if).
