So basically the fear of recession may trigger a recession? Laying off, cutting spending and thus cascading economic contraction?

Don’t think that would be a liquidity trap, but this type of recession always makes me think of Krugmans Baby-Sitting COOP model: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitol_Hill_Babysitting_Co-...
Or rather, it’s exactly as Islam is: it is a religion of peace and the politicians use the religion as a way to unite a bunch of poor people against someone else. Just like communism was used against capitalism in order to justify positions of power in the USSR.

You are arguing tribal consensus rather that arguing important points.

OOP in it’s essence is Akka actor model. Is that not considered a powerful FP framework? And please don’t tell me that the definition of OOP is what my recruiter tells me: it’s like trying to philosophise the meaning of life from the concept if Schroedinger’s cat when you have no idea of the underlying mathematics.

> I saw some benchmarks years ago where running a high end GPU at x8 or even x4 had pretty minimal impact. With high res textures coming in for 4K now I'd be curious to see someone run that again.

The average impact is low, but frametime consistency is generally deteriorated much more strongly than the small reduction (0-5 %) of average FPS suggests. That is probably mostly due to blocking uploads, where having a multitude more bandwidth reduces the blocking time. The average reduction is probably more caused by the general area of latency, since modern renderers tend to do a bunch of queries and while they obviously try to avoid it they'll have some amount of blocking commands in each frame frame.
I disagree. The loopholes are not from the progressive part of the tax code, so making it a flat rate doesn't simplify anything. I assume you are talking about a flat tax, which is a personal income tax only, but event still that is difficult. The complexity is from defining "income". A big source of complexity is about companies operating in other countries. You still have to define rules about a company car vs a personal car; and a business expense and a personal expense; and income that is entirely in another country vs domestic income. These problems don't go away with a flat tax despite it's proponents unquestioned belief that it does.

With many people saving approximately nothing for retirement and hitting 65 with roughly $0 to show for it, even his modified example of having $300-400k after 40 years is... a pretty damn good argument for saving $100/month.

Whether that $100 comes from lattes or apps/micro-purchases or junk food or brand labels or holding on to your car 2 more years before you replace it or cutting the cord on cable TV or more frugal vacations -- is all up to the individual.

Sorry but if you've literally got a billion dollars, you might be able to advise on growing your money, but you are (almost certainly) not able to advise on frugality. It's almost as if the argument is that if you spend $5 on lattes, you'll mysteriously be a much richer person who no longer has problems saving for retirement. That must be one damn good latte.

No one, not even Amazon, reached the "only show in town" scale. Walmart's online presence for most popular items is competitive and many times offer lower prices.

Uber, Airbnb, and other companies in this space are valued based on the assumption that they will in fact be able to reach that scale. And if they do, no doubt many of these unicorns will well exceed the trillion dollar market cap

"Well.. Tina's going to get a great job whatever she does, and however little effor she puts into it, but it's because her mom's a doctor and they have a lot of money. It doesn't matter if she owns an iPhone X and doesn't do homework. You need to, and it doesn't matter if you really love cooking because chefs make like $10 an hour and you need to pay rent so you need to go into investment banking even though you hate math and Excel."

Really? You probably haven't looked that hard, because there are probably hundreds of these type of lists. There seems to be one every month in Product Hunt.

How would you have handled taxing commercial/investment property (illiquid asset) from 2006-2012. Do you mark to market? If so, how? How can you do this at scale so the process is fairly applied in all regions, repeatable and trackable?
Yes we do. You change the social goals. A materialist society will always bring us to the brink of destruction. Also, having poverty and fear loom over people is a terrible idea for the basis of a civil society.

I don’t understand why you’re headed down tangents about narcissism and emotional intelligence, and I’m not going to bother engaging on all of that because it’s irrelevant and seems mostly about you asserting not-so-subtly that you’re smarter than everyone else.

What I will say is that you shouldn’t speak in absolutes if that’s not a position you actually hold. You rambled about black and white while you ignored that you made a black and white statement initially, which is why I replied at all: ”I always believe in 50/50”.

Replace “always” with “generally” and there wouldn’t be a conflict in what you wrote, and I wouldn’t have replied, and you likely wouldn’t have gotten downvotes (which I presume were for the inconsistency in your comment).
I just did it in the post, but can’t change the HN title, heh. My startup was “CloudFab”, so I’m too used to typing “CloudF,” I guess.

Really looking forward to working with you!
The golden era of YouTube ended when it was bought out by Google in 2006.

Ten years ago, YouTube was just a very popular video hosting service, with videos that were not made for profit but for entertainment. Videos were made by fans for fans, by enthusiasts for other enthusiasts, and they were quality. Regarding the football vids, they were a perfect blend of action and music, paced well and with well designed rhythm.

I used to go on YouTube to watch compilations of my favorite footballers, and back then the content wasn't restricted or monitored for intellectual property breaches. Those compilations were fantastic for the reasons above.

Today's youtube is just trash.

The question is what is a sustainable rate.
I'd cheer if the construction netted more units. I recognize that we need more housing. The plans described in the article are not doing that and are in fact, leaving us with fewer units. Calling these plans stupid has nothing to do with anti-gentrification sentiment - this is mathematically making the situation worse.

> Not those who already got theirs and want to keep the rest out

I agree. So maybe let's start by repealing Prop 13 so that everyone pays similar property taxes. Let's also start ending single-family zoning, minimum lot sizes, and minimum parking requirements.

> For every person occupying a rent controlled home, that's one unit of housing unavailable to someone else

For every person occupying a single family home bought 30 years ago, paying low property taxes locked in with Prop 13, that's 2-4 unites of housing unavailable to someone else.
Yeah. That was a fun puzzle.

Setting "letter-spacing: -0.02em !important" fixes it (which is what the strong tags have, hence them not being affected).
Exactly right. "OOP" is a system design paradigm. Useful for the 5% of the time one is concerned with big picture system design, and counterproductive for the 95% of the time one is writing mundane functions pertaining to their business domain. Alas, "OOP" was/is sold as a solution for everything computing, including the 95% of the time it is not a good fit. I call that track record "abysmal", your mileage may vary.
>Prep, brewing, and cleanup amounts can work up to around $3-4 of opportunity cost for a tech professional.

I disagree. The average tech professional is salaried, not billing hourly. It takes about the same amount of time to fill and plug in the percolator or operate a kurig as it does to stand in line and get coffee made for you. Likewise the opportunity cost is nearly $0 There is no economic rationalization for the overwhelming majority of prepared coffee bought by white collar professionals. It is a pure luxury expense.

I have a theory (it's a totally unproven one, I hasten to add).

There's been a huge move into passively managed index funds over the last 10 years, with many smart investors touting them as a better long term bet than actively managed funds.

Passively managed funds don't look at what's coming down the road, they invest to fixed formula.

So where an active fund might predict a fall and get out of equities, all the passively managed money stays put.

Self-fulfilling prophesy as markets are fundamentally about confidence, this shows confidence in the equities markets, despite issues like those in the article.

So the markets continue to rise.
Unclear to me that this is the case.

Here in London, at least at the low end, it is extremely easy to spend more on entertainment than it is on basic living costs.

That goes double if you're sharing a flat rather than renting alone.

A room might be 600pm.

Spending 20 quid a day just means a coffee, lunch, dinner out or takeaway. You can double your expenditure by just not preparing your own food.

This metric is incomplete without noting the number of hires. This does not mean a net loss in jobs.
This is not simple. If the tax rate were $10 per person across the board, that would be simple.

10% of what is what the question reduces to.

What if I have an investment that increases in value? Does the gain count as income? What if I don't sell it?

What if I receive non-monetary compensation? Is that income? How valued?

What if I have a loan forgiven (as in the article)? Do I pay tax on the forgiven amount?

What if I lose money or spend money? Does that affect income, or am I being taxed on my gross income?

What if my company pays for my rent and other living expenses? Is that income?

If you don't close these "loopholes" then the 10% just becomes a penalty for the people who don't have the time or the knowledge to circumvent the rule, but for those that do, they just don't have any "income" so there's no problem. The closure of the loopholes creates more loopholes, that push the problem upstream until only the very wealthiest individuals can afford to not pay taxes.

On that front, "ButtBleed" sounds a lot worse than CloudBleed, IMO.

Sure. You don't have to take over the whole screen with a gdb console they don't know how to use. Make the message as friendly as possible, but it still ought to actually contain the information necessary to identify what happened.

I suspect the modern trend of making problems opaque comes from companies that do it on purpose. If the user can solve their own problems, what do they need with your expensive support contract? Why have the user fix problems with their existing device when you can sell them a whole new one the first time anything happens?

And then other developers who don't even use those business models still cargo cult the same UX.

A bare-bones tax return involving only W-2 income for a couple with moderately high-paying jobs (doctor, lawyer, engineer, in some areas police officer, nurse, school principal, that sort of thing; enough to end up at $250k+ between the two of them) will include the following forms for the 2018 tax year:

* 1040 (including Schedule 4, to report Form 8959 bits on)

* 6251 (they probably don't owe AMT now, but need to fill out the form to prove it)

* 8959 (because wage income over $250k).

If they have any savings that's not cash under a mattress, probably add form 8960 and 1040 Schedule B or D or both (but now we have non-W2 income, of course). If they own a house, likely add Schedule A. If they have kids, probably add Schedule 3 for the child care credit and form 2441.

Plus the various worksheets involved (child credit, not to be confused with the child care credit, the actual tax computation worksheet, etc), which I guess don't have to be filed with the IRS, at least.

Now I agree that this is not really complicated in the grand scheme of things. I also agree that for people at lower income levels the 1040 is the only thing involved if no kids, add form 2441 if they have kids and are not stay-at-home parenting.
I am one of the people contributing to this trend. I tried Spotify first and switched to Apple Music. The family plan and my Sonos speakers just didn’t work on Spotify. Maybe they fixed, but I have no reason to check.

All of this reminds me of a talk by Gary Bernhardt called The Birth and Death of JavaScript (https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/the-birth-and-death...), which although farcical is actually a really compelling vision of the future of infrastructure.

Statism breeds cronyism in proportion to the power the state has over the market. Politicians need to get their dirty hands off the throat of the market.
This is not art or sport, it is a technical demonstration of an interesting way to build web applications by compiling java to javascript. Calling out that this method has accessibility issues seems very on-point for a show hn post. The TeaVM people may not have thought of this, but should consider it as it will eventually become a barrier to adoption of their tech. For example, anyone who sells software to enterprise companies that has customer facing UIs (and potentially employee facing UIs) knows that the interfaces must meet certain web accessibility standards because the risk to the enterprise of facing ADA lawsuits is high.

Sure, but in the context of building a visual layout tool, for someone to say that it shouldn't or doesn't need to be accessible to a blind person because OMG, visual! completely misses the point that it can be, and that other tools before it are. To say "I didn't have time to focus on accessibility because I was struggling with the challenges of making a Java codebase run under wasm" is one thing, and a thing I myself can relate to, having banged my head on wasm's challenges myself. To say "there's just no way to make a visual layout tool accessible to folks who can't see, so I'll just throw up my hands and give up" is another entirely. And I don't think that's what OP is doing, but I do think it's what some in this comment thread are advocating, and that's what bugs me.
We could talk in circles about the details here. The fact of the matter is that those who harass others in bathrooms are already criminals (regardless of gender), and trans people are not overrepresented in those statistics at all, so it's a strawman to imply otherwise.

The fundamental difference that will not allow us to converse well here is that you are intentionally not accepting that a trans person is the gender they have transitioned to.

It's clear that's the case from, for example, you saying "to keep women safe" and very obviously not including trans women in that group. Trans women are women and also deserve to use the bathroom where they will feel safer.
Sounds like these issues will always appear at scale where the company is just overwhelmed at what people can do. Will be a lesson for anyone who wants to take their company to that level.
Nope, and regardless of what port I specify via the --bind parameter, the error is the same.
This brings back the memory. I was working for a tiny company in Taiwan at that time. We had been producing VGA cards for a while at that time. An IC distributor brought us a demo board of Voodoo 3D (V1) card. I ran the demo and told my boss that it was the best 3D graphic that I have ever seen. My boss just decided to run with it. Back in those days, VGA card vendor standard practice was to modify the reference in two way. 1. Modify the layout so it can accommodate many different memory chips. If your board can use cheaper memory chip, you will have better profit ( often mean chip which did meet standard memory testing, but still usable with some effort in layout and hardware design) 2. Modify the driver so you have a better benchmark score.

Since we were a tiny company with not many resources so we decided to just manufacture the reference design. This decision enables us to be the first one in Taiwan to ship the product. I cold call 50 companies in Europe. I did not have much success at first since distributors in Europe were not convinced that 3D card can sell. Internet was slow back then, we were still using dialup modem and sending video capture was not an option. I finally got a break when I called the 42nd company on the list: Guillemot (France). Guillemot got their start in PC gaming sound card so they were already interested in the 3D card. Guillemot was talking to Orchid Technology but they need a lower price than what Orchid can offer. Since all other Taiwanese makers were still evaluating or in the development process, we got the business because our price is US$50 lower than Orchid and able to ship right away.
I'm aware. What's that got to do with Assange?
Interesting case for cloud based IDEs.

I really don't understand the localhost use case though. I'm on MacOS. Why would I spawn a VM (docker for macos) with limited access to my system (container promise) to run an editor already running in a VM?

I only end up having a resources and disk space hungry, slow and inconvenient editor?

Except I fear being labeled "rich" as someone in the top 1% globally but making 85k a year in the US. If you want a Russian Revolution, where the farmers were the "rich", that's how you get a Russian Revolution.
I think that is exactly it. For a pretty casual music listener like myself, I don't find a whit of difference between Apple Music and Spotify. Not that I've made a deep study of it, but then I'm a casual user.

Given that I'm pretty much all in on Apple otherwise, Apple Music seems like the natural choice to me.
I tried to use it a few times, but having to configure a Google build environment, without Google class workstations, meant I always gave up in the process and used Skia.Sharp instead.

I've actually found Apple Music and Spotify to have around the same quality recommendations. Both have a Discover Weekly feature, both will let you create "stations" from a song or artist. Neither are great or innovative in any way but they sort of get the job done. The recommendations are miles ahead of YouTube but that's not saying much.
> I don’t think it’s about supply and demand for game developer pay either

If there was a shortage of game developers, employers would be forced to give much better benefits and compensation to retain and hire staff (and probably there would be a lot less games and studios). There may be more to the analysis, but I don't agree that you can ignore supply and demand and turn this into just oppressor greedy guy vs oppressed exploited worker instead.
I was lucky enough to be present for one of the times Gary gave this talk live. I’ve been joking that for the past few years, his nightmare is my dream. It, like a lot of Gary’s stuff, has been very influential on me.

Totally wrong! The employment population ratio age 25-54, just climbed out of a sewer where it has wallowed BELOW the lowest gross employment ratio since the recession bottom in 1992! Unemployment has been HORRIBLE since Bush left office!

> there isn't enough demand for all that labor to be valuable at/above market-average.

This argument would be stronger if the game industry didn't also feature a large number of insanely well paid executives.

Unionization in the game industry is not about magically thinking that higher salaries will appear out of thin air. It's about low-ranking employees coordinating with each other to correct some of the power imbalance versus executives so that rank and file can get a larger share of the pie.
I find apple music's recommendations better than Spotify's.
