If we were behind the veil of ignorance, I think most economists would choose a consumption tax of some sort as that's both the least distortive and one of the easiest to administer, with transfer payments added on top to achieve the desired level of 'progressiveness'.

Wealth taxes only really make sense if you want to hurt the rich, NOT to raise revenue. (Well, strictly speaking a one-time, no-warning, credibly-promise-to-never-do-it-again wealth tax is a good way to raise revenue. But governments can't credibly promise such things)
It did used to be normal to marry after extremely short time from our point of view. And divorce was harder.

There were consequences for that through - partner who hate each other, violence, abuse (verbal, emotional, physical). Alcoholism.
You should check the project gadgetbridge[1]. Its aim is close to what you want to achieve : an opensource app to retrieve data and monitor without sending it god know where.
I have used it for 2 years now with an amazfit bip, which was never sync with the official app, not even once.
The project is really active, with roughtly a new release every month.

Do you:

* Lobby on ULW while freezing users' funds?

* Provide context and intent of the vulnerable to the worlds worst?

* Bully away private wealth while being caught on Jeffry Epstein's private jet?

Do you wake up each morning longing for simpler times, when each day was better than the one before, all because you gave everything away to be ... ... ...

Really go after it, show the world what technology can do when provided free reign to "run it off the rails" if need be.

Simply go to the absolutely worst place of your life, your life not anyone else's, and do not leave, do not do anything else, until it's no longer the worst part of your life. Then go to the next worst place, and repeat.

Do it long enough, and I can finally go public with all the stuff I'm doing currently held back by all that pesky morality, let alone all the stuff I've already done, such as that low frequency circadian beam I shot which envelopes the Earth, vaccinating humanity against some bad epidemics.

REAL BAD.

You can see examples of the kinda of disinformation right here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22012427

Blaming arsonists, blaming "fire load" and lack of forest manangement, etc. Go listen to the rural fire chiefs: climate change is preventing management, is lengthening the season, making outbreaks more intense and causing them to spread further than before.

Meanwhile the climate denying policies of their politicians leads them to cutting service funding, preventing activism, promoting coal mining and use.

This isn't the time to be an armchair fire expert. Australia is burning and climate change is the primary factor in the seriousness of the situation.

Yeah it seems like whatever rules there are ... there aren't many.

The whole VPN they ran that tracks kids ... that's not even a mystery as far as being a terrible idea.

Then Apple told them to knock it off.

So Facebook renamed it (sloppily too) and put it up on the app store again until they got caught again.

Kids, users, other companies, they don't care.

How can a PR person even craft a response like "hey we did wrong but we're sure we won't ... well yeah we probabbly will do that again, maybe immediately"
Totally agree. Helm is difficult enough to get up to speed with for engineers without prior experience with Kubernetes. Anything more complicated (and ksonnet was significantly more complicated, which is one of the reasons why it died out) is just not scalable. Helm is good enough and brings a decent balance between usability and complexity.

What do you think is a stronger primary cause for the climate change narrative?

- Exaggerated or misleading numbers in the news and other popular, non-scientific media

- Human CO2 emissions over the past 100 years
Men do in fact get more prison time for the same crimes when compared with women!
I think that comes from biology, many men can have children in their 70s, most women have problems past 35 (my piano teacher almost died in the age of 41 while giving birth, 3 years ago). Maybe medicine in the future would allow it, but as far as nature goes, there are different limits.
Thank you, I saw the example on the repository prom-grafana, I think that this example is for focus on the stand alone functionality of Tanka.

Do you know if there is an example or open source cluster using Tanka that I can try on minikube or a test cluster?

it would be really helpful to see how is the workflow to move from feature to feature, how are the envs when there is a bug, how do you replace the volume info from the cloud provider to minikube and all the considerations of the patched envs

You need complicated analysis to correlate the prolonged drought and all-time record breaking heat to climate change?

Why are you putting climate change in quotes? Even hardcore paid Oil shills don't deny climate change at this point, they only deny that it's anthropogenic.

The bureau of meteorology even made a pretty infographic showing the effects of climate change: http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/history/temperature/
This is why reputations in M&A matter.
Nitpick: the comparison should be to the number of residents that get an official state ID through the DMV, not drivers, and the former is a lot closer to the total >15-year-old population than drivers would be.

(At least, if Florida is like a typical state DMV, which issues the state ID cards that may or may not have a driving endorsement.)
Au contraire, I'd say there is an issue here (as someone who's both owned and raced BMWs and Mazdas in various series)

Mazda specifically markets themselves as fun to drive - the whole "zoom-zoom" thing

They put huge effort into making the driving dynamics both feel good and work well. Even the SUVs have a [Sport] mode toggle switch next to the shift lever that changes various shifting, suspension, and engine parameters for a different feel and performance profile.

It is no surprise that Mazda thought about this in depth and decided that the default should be to feel like a regular combustion engine/gearbox.

What is surprising, especially since it's available in other cars, is that that they do not seem to have included a Sport Mode, whereby a driver could access all the available performance.

Having both the default and sport mode would definitely make me more likely to consider the car, vs. the ICE-like mode only.

(also a bit surprising that the article never mentions asking Mazda about this option)
Advertising/marketing.

People often perceive a mattress as "very important," as sleep is important, and are willing to spend a bit extra if they think the quality will be there and they'll sleep better.

In reality I believe most of these "mattress in a box" companies are selling the same 2-3 mattress manufactured in the same factory.

Personally, I buy mattress in the $300-$500 range. When I was in college I just slept on a brick of foam because that was what I could afford.

> Female soccer players make less money because less people watch and there is less money

I think this is a great example! The US women's soccer team is better than the men's but they make a fraction of the money. It's not their fault that sports have a sexist history that influences viewership, ad revenue, and ultimately their salaries.
Feces from a 300 vultures disrupting CBP comms on US-Mexico border
The “fake news” attack is so devastating because so much of Western media is fake news. I read Noam Chomsky's political stuff at a tender age, and, while I don't agree with his interpretation (TL;DR: "USA is Mordor") it was very eye-opening in re: American media.
"Climate change is going to start fires eventually, so let's just ignore what happened and claim that what happened isn't what happened but what's gonna happen happened."
Not sure what inequality you're talking about, given that the US population is right at a 50/50 split between men and women. Then again, I'm not sure how genuine you're being here.

"[Women] make up 13.8% of mining and logging jobs, up from 12.6% a year earlier..."

That seems like a huge recomposition in a single year. What caused this?
It's price discrimination.

The market for a $1,095 mattress wouldn't be caught dead shopping at CostCo, even if it's the exact same mattress.

The "Select" branding isn't there to bamboozle them, it's to help them rationalize paying $500 more to be known as someone above shopping at CostCo.

Casper wants one person's $1,095, and another's $599, so they use branding and channel differentiation to scoop $1,694 from both sales, instead of $1,095 for just one, or $1,198 for both.

If we presume their cost is $400, then they go from $398 in margin (two sales at $599) or $695 in margin (one sale at $1,095) to $894 in margin. That's good business!
I found the dichotomy basically real in high school, but once I came to San Francisco, the smartest and highest-achieving people around were also ripped, or at least slender. I was never self-conscious about it in high school or college, but here I felt a lot of pressure to start exercising, and I think it's been good for me.

The high-school-like dichotomy has more to do with affect. Everyone is athletic, but you can definitely tell the boisterous business bros from the soft-spoken engineers.
Not sure, but historically large numbers of unemployed young men has not been a good thing for societal stability.
So for quotes, that's one query. What justifies the rest?
There's an example in this talk:
https://youtu.be/gCWtkvDQ2ZI?t=1903

Basically you can quote code (like in Lisp) and pass it to an executor (thread, remote server, ...).

The main difference is that thanks to the immutability, you can also have a protocol which shares efficiently all the dependencies required to execute the code (like a git pull).

It also uses an effect system, so the implementation does not need to decide which executor to use, it only uses an interface called an "ability", and the caller can choose the implementation.

There are some legitimate concerns related to having basically only women teaching young children, but the issue seems to predominantly be that men don't want to do it.
Ignoring everything else wrong with your post, I'll just point out that most software developers were originally women before about 1960 -- it was seen as "woman's work" because it didn't require physical labor. Women were significant contributors to the development of computing from the very beginning -- in fact, "software" as a concept was invented by a woman [1]. The profession didn't become high-status or highly-paid until after men took over (and shut out the women by redefining it as "men's work").

>The fact that the $6.5T figure appears anywhere on Pentagon account books is the problem

It doesn't as I linked. It's derived from a (quote) "non-statistical sample" and is full of double billing. I pointed this out with sources. This number is not from tallying items on books - it's from taking not statistically controlled sample and extrapolating, using poor methodology (as pointed out in the links I provided). This is basic stats and arithmetic.

When X money comes from gov to dept A, goes on a book, then goes to dept B, goes on a book, this is not 2X dollars. This is how they get such ridiculous numbers by not balancing books. This is pointed out in enough well sources internet places besides what I posted that it's not worth digging it up more.

Coincidentally, the DoD recently completed it's second complete audit [1] in late 2019, even later than the 2018 one I posted above. Again, they found "No evidence of fraud". If you search that gov site, you'll find documents in depth about the audit(s).

I get that you want to stick to a clearly incorrect audit from 2016 for your narrative of incompetence and fraud, but when I've provided 2 annual audits that show otherwise, it's clear you're holding onto a belief over fact.

Proper and adequate sleep is also an important part of weight loss, so I find it naive to only attempt to fix the weight issue.

It's a vicious catch-22 to not be able to breathe enough to sleep well enough to lose weight so that one can breathe in the first place.
Fair enough.

I don't agree with your assessment here. But, I respect how tricky your role is, and I can't argue with the overall results of your approach to moderation considering how often I come back to see what's happening on HN. :)

Some perhaps they lost prior jobs and did not regain positions of parity, now they're disenfranchised, socially isolated, in some form of despair, or even homeless.

Anecdotally, the homeless populations I see everywhere in the west coast are 99% males aged 25-50.
I'm part of the problem I suppose, in so much as one can call it a problem. I gave up dating a decade ago because being in a relationship was not necessary for my life goals and dating was a pain in the ass, plan to semi-retire early with a relatively minimalist lifestyle and part time job, etc.

Part of any acquisition is getting a look at your books.

Now the buyer knows exactly how much runway you have left and all they have to do is drag their feet until you get desperate to make a deal.

Either you have to be cashflow positive, or keep at least two buyers on the hook past whatever disclosure phase nets them this sort of information. I think maybe one company I ever worked for was clever and healthy enough to do this. And even on that one, things went a bit touch and go. One of the worst kludges we ever did, it came out later, was worth a month of payroll, which got us through that acquisition without bouncing checks.

Sure it is! Cosmetics are an enormous industry for this reason. For men, it's more about having a proper haircut, facial hair that suits your bone structure (which is kind of men's makeup), clothes that fit, and good posture.

If you don't believe me, consult with some of your more attractive friends, and have yourself a makeover day to try it out. You can look like a million bucks for the cost of a haircut and a new outfit. Even if you're out of shape, you can present yourself just fine.

If you're feeling really brave, doll yourself up as nicely as you can, and consult a forum (not HN) on your appearance. Reddit has a few communities that do this sort of thing. You can dial yourself in to what most people would considered "beautiful" pretty quickly if you want to do it.
