It being open source means that you can in fact fork any part of it or even all of it.

It's just that fracturing resources more based on ideology might not be terribly beneficial.

The claim is that the thing you invested in doesn't magically double in value. It goes up in value because of other post-tax economic activity.

If you went to a roulette table at a casino, put $5K on black and it hit, you'd owe tax on that $5K because it's just income.

If you bought a company for $5K and then sold it a year later for $10K, its value typically increased because it was doing more business and therefore paying more taxes along the way.

Now, there are of course problems with this. Companies aren't purely valued on post-tax activities. In the event of real estate, it's even less convincing. If a vacation house doubles in value, it's unlikely this was due to the house's post-tax economic activity. So whether or not it's a double taxation is debatable but kind of irrelevant; it's remains a relatively fair way to raise revenue.
Indeed, I would say the link should be updated to point to the original.

Why does the author think the global supply chain will collapse in the next ten years? What scenario do they envision?

Climate change? Will cost trillions of dollars and billions of lives, but will likely be played out over course of several decades. We will be stressing out about it but its not going to be electronics-ending apocalyptic

Nuclear war? Please. The countries that have the capability are also level-headed enough to use them to play brinksmanship, despite what the news is telling us. These countries want deterrence, not to blow stuff up.

Disease? We're too widely distributed and the most successful viruses are ones that infect but do not kill. Ebola is scary but its too destructive for its own good which makes it easy to contain. The most successful virus is the common cold, and possibly HIV which is certainly a serious problem, but nobody's out there building shelters because of that.

Water/food supply? Fresh water is a function of energy, and if anything is a plus about climate change its that we're gonna have a lot of fresh water raining down on us from the Earth trying to compensate for higher temps.

Second order effects from climate change will likely affect arable land and is worrisome but it may also open up new areas for growth and will likely play out over time, so I'm considering this more of a political problem.

The only things I can think of are either:

1) A sudden disappearance of rare earth metals needed to make electronic, which would be massively inconvenient but we'd figure out a way around that, either by it suddenly becoming more valuable to recycle old electronics or not needing them in the first place. Besides if this happens we'd just get extra motivated to start mining asteroids.

2) Celestial events like asteroid strike or Coronal Mass ejection hitting Earth in the wrong way. The first problem is mitigated with asteroid tracking and we're getting better at that, and the second one would make for an interesting 6 months but pretty sure we'd get back on track pretty quick.

I am all for technology that does not depend on a complex global supply chain - we will need to manufacture simple but sophisticated tech in space and mars in the future but this prepper BS is just fantasy driven by a hyper-apocalyptic news cycle shlepping around clickbait.

What am I not worried about that I should be? What massively apocalyptic event is going to happen in 10 years to turn us back to the middle ages? Seriously.
Isn’t that also the stance of the UN? Hong Kong and Macau are special administrative regions of China until 2047.
I'm not at all sure what you mean. There is no way you could fill the catacombs, if that's what you're suggesting. And how does having catacombs under montparnasse show that you can put pilings through train tunnels?
To understand why that doesn’t matter, try seeing how much the bottom 10% pay. This would include the homeless, etc. Should we expect them to be paying the same tax rate as the richest Americans?
Well, the idea is that this is online Kotel - Wall, you do not need physical object to notify HIM.
I think both of you are right. The Venn diagram of "people who moved to Seattle to take a job paying 5x the prevailing wage" and "people who think Seattle was perfect and should never change from the state it was in the day after they arrived" seems, in my experience, to be almost completely overlapping. The voice of "build absolutely nothing anywhere near anybody" often originates from locals but is amplified by the people who newly-arrived and who can afford a $900,000 single-family residence in a "bucolic neighborhood" and now live in mortal terror that four-floors-and-corner-stores will be built nearby.

And then they have kids so everything turns into "that will severely impact my family and my children" so the rest of us are monsters for proposing such a thing.

Sorry for being hyperbolic; this raises my hackles a bit.

Major Why You Probably Hate Your Job and How to Hate It a Bit Less
I'm totally speculating here, since I'm not intimately familiar with the pertinent regulations, but I think it's not going to be about the token's inherent properties as much as the mechanisms surrounding it.

With a token such as a laundry/car-wash token, an amusement ticket, or a Disney Dollar, you can't get cash back from the issuer. Once you buy them, they're yours forever, unless you can find a third party to give you money for them. The fact that you can (try to) sell them on eBay to a willing recipient doesn't make them currencies.

So I think it comes down to who controls the exchange. If it's a third party with no connections whatsoever to the issuer, then it's unlikely to be considered a currency. But if the issuer is also operating the exchange, or has a connection to the operator, then I think it's going to look a lot more suspect in the eyes of the law.

Again, this isn't legal advice - consult a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction.

NN, as it was proposed, as implementation of Title II for ISPs, is a large bundle of regulations. Regardless, every regulation has a cost to compliance.

I explained how NN reduces options for consumers in a different reply.

5G is meant to be a replacement for home internet service. Its primary features: high bandwidth, low latency, etc. are specifically meant for that purpose.

The one example I saw of this was a Portuguese mobile carrier. I didn't see any other examples.

And zero-rating would be allowed under Title II.

That's actually a pretty funny coincidence. Never recognized that before.
Oh we definitely have, everyone benefitted massively from the "manifest destiny" attitude behind the many atrocities committed against the native Americans.

It's also not our fault, infar as we didn't literally pull any triggers. We're probably still complicit to some degree, however, by our general lack of support for reparation actions.

Anyone who thinks that moderators quitting will stop questions being closed as dupes doesn't understand how StackOverflow works. The moderators are the ones doing the absolute dirtywork of handling cases of abuse, harassment, vandalism, spam, vote fraud, and so on. If half the mods quit, all you get in return is more spam and hostile comments. The remaining community will keep closing questions like before - that's simply not the job of moderators.

There are probably a number of people who are attracted to Linus Torvald's attitude and style, but I can assure you the number of people who do not contribute to the Linux kernel because they're turned off by it is significantly larger. It's absolutely in the best interest of the project that he adopt an attitude change permanently or step down.

Just as most sports are 90% mental and only 10% physical, managing a large software project is 90% people skills, and only 10% technical.
It would be valuable to see your group put up a statement articulating the specific actions taken by Stallman and how they have caused "those who [you] want to reach out to" to be alienated. You may think that some collective consciousness is both aware of these actions and fully in agreement with this statement, but as the comments here will indicate, it's entirely possible that either one of these or both isn't true. It may only be a court of public opinion, but I believe the accused deserves to know what they're accused of.

I only seen some accusation that appeared now after 20 years , where RMS said something and some people were made uncomfortable.

I agree RMS is not a sociable person but I would have preferred to see some significant "crime" , now I have the feeling that you can be kicked out from your own project if you made a stupid comment or thing in the past and the social media gets enraged by mostly FUD and exagerations of your said comment.
All of this is true, but it's beside the point. The perception in America is that the rich pay more in taxes as a percentage of their income than the middle class do. The marginal tax rates imply that, with middle class people paying either the 22% or 24% marginal rate, and rich people paying at at 35%+ rate. Thus, people think that we have a progressive system.

However, if you look at the data in this chart, you can see it's not true any longer. The actual combined rate paid by most Americans is between 22-28%. (It's on the lower end for the poorest Americans, and for the wealthiest as well) Fundamentally, the total taxes paid is flat.

I think most people think that the taxes paid chart looks like what it did in the late 70s/early 80s. In that chart, the poorest Americans pay about 20%, and the richest about 45%. That's where we should be, instead of where we are now.
If you're going to tell me that the matter of intellectual property laws have never hurt or hindered anyone on any matter, I'm going to have to categorically disagree with you.
Feed the world: How the USDA is using data and AI to address a critical need
I always wanted a Tesla ever since the Model S came out in 2012. But have been skeptical since I have not owned an electric vehicle before. Did a ton of research and asked questions from actual owners and ignored the noise from media outlets.

June of last year, I finally got a used 70D Model S from Tesla since it comes with 4yrs/50K mile warranty for $47K to minimize the risk. Delivery experience was not the best but Tesla made it right.

I would occasionally drive my wife's MB SUV and just couldn't get over how dated everything felt. Decided to trade that SUV in for a Model X and now we are an all Tesla household (never would have imagined this). I traded in the Model S for a Model 3 last July since it's more efficient/fun commuter car and I grin every time I get in it and often find excuses to drive it. The product is that good. It changed the whole driving experience for me.

Maintenance so far has just been tires and washer fluid. Lower insurance cost through USAA. Zero issues with repair even though the closest service center is 200+ miles way in Salt Lake City.

Service is handled by two Mobile Service techs in our area because of the interestingly fast adoption here in the Boise, Idaho area... I schedule via the app they call within 24hrs to confirm and they show up either at our driveway or work parking lot to fix issues.

If they need it longer, they also drop off a loaner. The pundits have been saying that Tesla will never make it or will go out of business since 2009. Yet here we are in 2019 and YoY growth and sales are still growing. Amazon, Apple or Google will quickly snatch up Tesla if it ever get's in peril.

Stallman's behavior has been known to the community for a long time. He's been banned from multiple free software conferences that I've visited for his behavior; the first one of such was 7 years ago. This isn't a new "witch hunt", it's been boiling forever, it's been known forever, but now the climate has changed enough that people are believing the allegations, and he's finally facing consequences for his actions.

What due process do you want, given that it's taken at least 7 years for such allegations to be taken seriously by some subsection of the community?

During my time at Microsoft I submitted a code review with an updated mapping library we got from a 3rd party. The auto review bot flagged the the changes with a "Geopolitical Issue" or something like that. Turned out it was an icon for Taiwan's flag.

I don't remember if we deleted the icon or just renamed it, but the product never ended up shipping, so it probably doesn't matter much.

Hard to read this as anything other than a sales pitch:

> While a 24% market share — 1 out of every 4 sales in this market — seems wild, the thing that blows the minds of many Tesla Model 3 owners is that anyone is still buying an Audi A4, Volvo S60, BMW 320i, Mercedes C300, etc.
This is a fallacy, stop with this kind of logic. At whatever point where the requests become unreasonable is the point at which to raise issue, not because of some arbitrary "precedent setting" bullshit.

Why does your work require you to be up there? Consulting?
Yeah, I read the whole thing in Gaiman's voice and it fit perfectly. The only thing that tipped me off was that Gaiman would've probably been less surprised about someone he knew having met David Bowie.
I can understand why people are saying that network access is necessary for meaningful execution, given how much malware conditions on it. (For instance, WannaCry's kill switch.) But it's still hair-raising from a developer's standpoint since network actions you expected to control are now triggering unexpectedly. I can think of a few ways for that to get ugly.

In this case Beacon was sandboxed for security observation, but a build could easily be sandboxed for network-unsafe testing instead. Perhaps it's issuing malformed or high-volume requests to test internal functionality, safe in the knowledge that it's not actually connected to anything, and so it becomes a DoS attack when it's launched in the wild.

Or worse, maybe it's calling home to an endpoint that does something when it gets the call. It's not hard to imagine somebody putting together a binary with any required auth baked in on the logic "this only exists on my machine", and then suddenly getting it called from Redmond as well. Best practices ought to handle that alright, but it's still an awfully surprising thing to have happen to your test build.
I think this is probably the most important part of this whole issue, whether or not Stack Exchange is acting in good faith. And it's true, how can anything they say be trusted anymore if they would lie like that to the community?

Whether or not they lied, I wish they'd say something about it. Staying silent about it really gives a bad impression.
I don't know what parent meant but I would personally say that fits OP to a T. All of OPs claims of "this hasn't happened yet" have happened outside of the US where there is no NN.

There actually are still quite a few companies making mp3 players, but they call them Digital Audio Players (DAPs) and market them to the audio enthusiast crowd. The do cost a lot more than the Sansa Clips did, but you get better audio quality. Look up Fiio, Shanling, Cowon, and Sony DAPs on Amazon if you want some examples.
Yes, sensor monitoring (movement, heat, wind) is just simple IO handling and I'm sure managing a SQLite database would be in it's capabilities. If a C64 is capable of all if this then it can be done.

Even chat is possible for example between two buildings where radio might not penetrate the walls. But sure, at that point if you can lay down cables, then it's simpler to just build a telephone.

Why do we need the fair tax plan to create a flat rate, when the graph in this chart shows that the rate is already pretty flat? Today, most people pay between 22 and 28% taxes.
There is no dispute about what country Guantanamo Bay is part of: both the US and Cuba agree it is part of Cuba.

The dispute is about whether the lease agreement which allowed the US to use that territory as a naval base is still in force. Early after the Cuban Revolution, one of the US's regular rent cheques was mistakenly cashed, and the US claims this is recognition on the part of Cuba that the lease remains valid.

My novel idea (feel free to use it!) is about someone taking a 1980s computer back to the Second World War. It's used by the Allies to decrypt Ultra intelligence and is treated like a kind of holy relic - only a tiny set of "high priests" are allowed near it, fewer still can touch it, and because of its importance they go to extraordinary lengths to ensure it can never be damaged by anything from bombs to power glitches. Think a Commodore 64 in a ridiculous white room.

But the book would be more about the consequences of this - do they eventually take the thing apart and jump-start a silicon chip revolution in the 1950s, or (more likely I think) does the government destroy the machine as the UK government did to the Bletchley machines after WWII, and because there's no ground-up computer theory does it set back computing for decades?

Keep telling yourself that but it totally depends on what you get and who you are (i.e how you use it).

'09 "CVT" Altima owned by literally anybody. -> crap

'03 Accord owned by Grandma -> Perfectly fine car

'11 Tacoma owned by Joe the scrapper -> Made a one way trip over the scrap scale 5yr ago.

'11 Tacoma owned by upper middle class neighbor Steve who uses it to haul pine mulch for his garden and is generally easy on equipment -> Perfectly fine car.

It takes little more than a pulse to get your hands on (for example) a Nissan Altima or a Dodge Journey. They are solidly meh vehicles and (for the most part) bought in droves by people who's credit leaves them little other option. Time is not kind to vehicles under that kind of ownership. They get serviced when they have problems that impede their usefulness, maybe. Meanwhile, in an upscale gated community across town 4Runners plastered in honors student stickers will see easy use (food spills in the rear seats and smelly sports equipment are not particularly hard on vehicles) will see the kind of preventive maintenance the authors of German car service schedules lust over. When it comes to longevity the way a vehicle is treated matters more than anything else and over 20+yr the seemingly small difference between how different groups treat their cars will compound to be the dominant term in the equation.

Are these the top in income or wealth? Because afaik most taxes are on income. If you accumulate a lot of wealth and do not proportionally generate income from it (think of private real estate), your tax rate should drop by that measure, right?
Latency is measured from the client. In the example in the post (and more details in the paper), you see the latency tail from when clients access data that is far from them. The challenge is to make multi-home transactions no worse than regular Paxos latency. In previous systems, this required multiple rounds of communication across the homes that are involved in that transaction. In systems like PNUTS, they would disable such transactions altogether. SLOG's ability to handle such transactions with latency no worse than Paxos is a big step forward.
