HN is about honest discussion... You see to have starting this with an agenda in mind.
I think there are plenty of billionaires who would agree that taxes need to be higher, but they disagree specifically with the taxing mechanisms being proposed by Warren and Sanders, namely the wealth tax.

Take everyone's favorite startup founder, Adam Neumann, of WeWork. Under Warren's plan, he would have been worth around 14 billion last year, based on a 30% stake in a $47 billion "valuation". So he'd owe close to a billion in taxes, when in fact, he was worth far less. And even if $47B was the correct valuation, there's not a great mechanism for him to actually get the liquidity to pay taxes.

So higher taxes on billionaires? I'm all for it. But we need realistic proposals to make it happen.
TL;DR: Western culture is mainly an invention of the Catholic church. As if we didn't know already.

Yes, one thing I've been proposing for the past couple of years around here is that we need rules that make most data gathering a liability. And even then some data should become non-liable only if it's encrypted client-side/end-to-end.

Are you aware that taxes on assets already exist?

https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employe...

The Estate Tax is a tax on your right to transfer property at your death. It consists of an accounting of everything you own or have certain interests in at the date of death (Refer to Form 706 (PDF)). The fair market value of these items is used, not necessarily what you paid for them or what their values were when you acquired them. The total of all of these items is your "Gross Estate." The includible property may consist of cash and securities, real estate, insurance, trusts, annuities, business interests and other assets.
That's what I was looking for, thank you.
The thing is, it's not moral to get rid of them. And many of them are in higher places than you'd expect:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_S._Truman#Financial_prob...

> The former president told House Majority Leader John McCormack in 1957, "Had it not been for the fact that I was able to sell some property that my brother, sister, and I inherited from our mother, I would practically be on relief, but with the sale of that property I am not financially embarrassed."[264] The following year, Congress passed the Former Presidents Act, offering a $25,000 yearly pension to each former president, and it is likely that Truman's financial status played a role in the law's enactment.[265] The only other living former president at the time, Herbert Hoover, also took the pension, even though he did not need the money; reportedly, he did so to avoid embarrassing Truman.[266]

If a former US president is dumb enough to go bankrupt repeatedly post-presidency, what hope do you think the average Joe Sixpack has?

There are a couple technically interesting things about this and at least one social one.

1. Some code pulled into this script and licensed under a BSD licensed is noted as being pulled from another codebase that is not open source.

2. The script in question takes a list of emails and a password. Then it sprays the API (trying each email as a username with the passed in password) until it finds one that works. I would be curious of the technical details on rate limiting of Mimecast and the legitimate uses of this codebase.

Then the social issue... if you look at the codebase it appears to have nefarious uses (are there legit ones?). Should companies or people take legal courses of actions to protect themselves? If so, when?

Note, I understand the line between security research and nefarious actions. This doesn't appear to be about security research. Or, am I missing something?

That would put form over function , and would be dangerous. There is no reason to go "high level" just to convenience the engineers (except perhaps being able to hire cheaper, less qualified ones). The tradeoffs can be dangerous. Imagine this kind of fragility being installed in robocars.
In my opinion, that was outside the bounds of the study; Cantlon was being asked to speculate. That said, sexism is the mechanism and it's a pretty big part of our society; there are lots of studies on this already. So much so that some people think one gender is "naturally" better at math then the other.

Some of these are "power" vs "everyday" user optimizations. The one that jumps out to me is Skype. I had read some case studies of their redesign where they stated that 90%+ of Skype users only have two or three Skype contacts, and they use it to talk to their family members.

The redesign optimized for that and as a result you, I and everyone else with hundreds of contacts lost our collective minds.

My understanding is that, without MCAS or some other design change to fix its unacceptble handling characteristics near the stall, the 737 MAX would have been uncertifiable even as a new type. It is the way that Boeing went about implementing that fix, in an attempt to avoid an additional training requirement, that has caused all the trouble.

> But taking more aggressive measures poses risks. The people using services for free — especially younger consumers — may never agree to sign up for a subscription, no matter how many hassles they endure. That means companies would mostly just be alienating paying customers, who could get frustrated and stop using an app or cancel their service. In other words, there’s plenty of downside and possibly little upside.

They should offer a lowball “add a user” price because Johnny Millenial might get his parents to tack on a few bucks but he’s not going to sign up for the $150+/mo package.

I’m also surprised they haven’t cracked down on the source IP addresses. It’d be trivial to look at the net bandwidth and see that the usage is at a totally different physical address (and not just a mobile phone).
That wasn't the point I was trying to make. I was trying to point out that ideally you could just leave the old API there for old software to use and build a new API for new software to use. If it wasn't for security bugs you could leave the old API untouched. Sadly, security issues prevent this and after a while it becomes uneconomical to supply even security fixes. This is why hardware that relies on software has an operational life shorter than the hardware itself has.
I've found that people have different learning styles. E.g. I'm not big on video courses. I'd much rather read one great book on the topic I'm trying to learn, then meet someone who's amazing at it to ask them a ton of questions and get their feedback on my implementation of what I've learned. I guess this is a long winded way of saying I learn by doing and with mentorship. I'm a Founder though—how can I give employees who learn like me the same experience?
It's really a matter of what you care about to accomplish.

I don't understand this reasoning. Shouldn't unprecedented economic growth mean that the vast majority of US citizens are better off than they were 40 years ago? But this isn't the case at all. Back then the vast majority of families could afford to own a home, have a bunch of kids, etc. and do it all on a single income. That is laughable today. What is the point of a country experiencing unprecedented economic growth if the citizens of that country are by and large worse off? I assume that growth came at the expense of the citizens and not to their benefit. But if not to their benefit, wouldn't it have been better to not have the growth at all?

That's because having that much money gives you disproportionate power. That power should come at a cost. Democracy is supposed to represent each individual equally yet money (powerful lobbies) have swayed that in the favor of a very small few since forever. If equality is important when paying taxes then it should be equally important when pulling strings.

And if we're talking about fairness if you were always happy with one of these imbalances then it's only fair to accept the second.

Good grief what a stupid quote to use as a pretext for tacitly supporting these measures.

When I was “young”, whatever that undefined number means, I swore there were lots of things I’d never pay for. Streaming music services, are a germane example. Then I got older, developed a bit of discretionary income, my time got more valuable, and the services become the best option. The once “no way ever” is now an unthought monthly cost.

We were considering using React Native for our task and communication app for non-desktop workforce, we even started out that way but realised how much effort we would have to put into getting things working especially since our interface is a little different and ended but ended up building native for both Android and iOS.

I think it's for the same reasons that most developers who work on projects that they didn't create from grouns up want to do a refactor or a total rewrite. The idea in your mind never has the flaws that the real implementation acquires through time and use.
In the article they mention that they outsourced at least some of it.

“ As Boeing and the subcontractor that supplied the flight-control computer, the United Technologies Corp. division Collins Aerospace Systems, worked through these changes, it has at times created tension.”
It would probably wreak havoc on the stock price, which not only hurts the business in question, but hurts employee shareholders, pension/mutual funds, etc.

The effect would be similar to what typically happens to public stocks after employee lockups expire, except at a higher scale.
If 'the billionaires' are as powerful as those like Warren and Sanders say no one has to worry about them ever being elected.

Additionally, I hear a lot from the left about modern monetary theory which essentially claims government can just print more money when it is needed and therefore collecting taxes is not necessary.

Which is it then? Perhaps they are attacking the wealthy out of political hatred and vitriol not out of a desire to help the poor or build roads.
My gut feeling is that the largest player in any market should control less than five percent of it. So, more than twenty?

The fact that we'd all be way healthier with less pollution in the air and water would lead directly to less medical costs and less time missed from work and higher productivity!
I prefer to think of it as, let's tax the people who benefit 10000 times more from the current system or who have probably a million times more influence than the average person. They certainly didn't work 10000 times harder and I don't think anyone should have the influence they do.

Seems like a lot of billionaires on hacker news given the comments. The past two Republican presidents have pushed for and gotten massive tax "reforms" that reward these same people and cost the treasury massive amounts of new debt. Seems like just reversing all of the "reforms" would be fairly simple to implement and return the lost revenue without even needed to do anything new.
Do you have a citation for the claim that only billionaires pay taxes? I mean, why do Americans popularly fear April 15th if only a few thousand pay?
I hope they aren't expecting people to fly on these planes.
due to the engine location change on the airframe, the plane naturally pitches up... making [MCAS] necessary.

Most jet airliners have a pitch up tendency. The problem with the MAX is two related issues...

First, FAA has a requirement that stick pressure must follow certain patterns - namely, the harder you pull/push the stick, the more the plane reacts. Due to engine placement, the MAX did not meet this requirement.

Second, Boeing needed to create the MAX with minimal (approaching zero) re-training of pilots.

MCAS was supposed to meet both needs - by having MCAS adjust the stabilizer, the stick behavior/feel came back within requirements. And because it was all automatic, the pilots didn't need retraining in the simulator. Correcting the stick feel without a system like MCAS would have required more substantial changes to the plane, which would have likely required simulator time, which was likely a deal-breaker for some airlines.

It's mostly not about the fact that they're minorities. Ppeople have the misfortune of living in places with high enough population density to support this kind of policing just happen to be mostly minorities. The people pushing for Orwellian surveillance and policing of the inner city would be happy to expand it to the land of trees and double wide trailers were that practical to do so within current budgets.

I'm sure there's some racists here and there within government but not enough to be of consequence or to push these kinds of things on their own (IMO).

You expect too much from the same people that complains about the simplest of things.

Yours is the most down to earth approach to these issues. No need to look for an extreme, or fast solution (which I think is what drives these things; no data to back it up). Just some dedication and moderation.

I don’t really like exercising, yet I try to find excuses to walk to the supermarket or to work (half an hour). I don’t really like drinking, much less destroying myself in the process, yet I enjoy the moments I share with my friends and drink in moderation... but very few times there is no moderation, which is the beauty of it! (Please don’t drink too much, it’s quite stupid)

People these days it seems cannot live without being in an extreme. There is no middle ground; no possibility of it either.

Keep it up. Nothing like a good balanced approach to enjoying life.
