I don't understand why "faster than light" automatically implies "go back in time". If it takes me 10 seconds to travel 10 lightyears, then that means I should still be traveling forward in time (specifically by 10 seconds), no?

Like, it might apply on a "moving through local space faster than light" sense because physics is weird like that, but the whole idea behind wormholes is to shrink the actual distance traveled (from the traveler's point of view).
Hey XCSme. Your product is one of the best I have seen. Very deep insights, with a good interface.

Ps: You probably need a better name. Since your website says it is privacy respecting, 'UserTrack' doesn't exactly convey that. Just something with 'Track' not in the name.

And adblockers like uBlock Origin tend to block everything like track.domain.com.

RCA had one, and the amount of money they wasted trying to invent three different barely-working home video systems is arguably a big factor on why they went bankrupt.
> I thought this was simple. You can't go faster than light.

People also thought that time is universal and common for all places.

According to history of physics, theories usually have limits to their applicability. For relativity theory, currently known limits are in the presence of large gravity centers; but it doesn't mean that those are the only limits. Even putting aside elegant, in my view, proposals to circumvent speed limit, like Alcubierre drive, we don't know if this speed limit is "absolute". It's part of very well working theory, yes, but we don't know what we can learn yet.

I was (obviously) joking but this is really a sad thing to hear.
All these strict (implicit) social rules are ridiculous, and I am not interested in that kind of toxic environment, where a simple question results in inter personal conflict.

I also don't care what you think about my maturity or social ability.

A mature adult would have been able to respond with a message saying that dating is not appropriate, and a mature adult would have still been able to talk about math after saying that dating is inappropriate.

To me, it seems more like the other person is immature and not capable of engaging in a constructive situation.

Anyway, over analyzing a simple email with a question is a bit unnecessary, and it was the opposite of productive. The productive thing to do would have been to simply acknowledge the situation and divert towards mathematics. What annoyed me is that none of the university faculty was able to do so.

I actually provided an extremely productive path of discussion via my mathematics called Grassmann.jl which could have taken the center stage of discussion, instead I was suspended and sanctioned and nobody acknowledged my mathematical contribution to the discussion.

I provided the opportunity for productivity via my mathematical inquiry, but it was ignored in favor of inter-personal conflict (over a simple question) on the side of the university.
I know this is immature, but...

Allen's wealth was neither given to him nor taken by him. He created it.

As for me, I prefer having a choice on what's for dinner than a vote on that. The US was founded on the principle of individual rights and liberty, not communal purpose.

No need to pity me, we are living in a golden age in the US. I have little doubt future historians will see it that way. I have no fear of billionaires. I don't buy that money buys elections. Hillary outspent Trump 2:1 and still lost, Bernie outspent Biden by some huge amount, and lost. Bloomberg flooded money into his campaign, and was completely eviscerated. I confess I daydream sometimes about what I'd do with a billion dollars that I'll never have, but that doesn't translate into any desire to tear down existing billionaires.

I missed several forks in the road in my life that could have led to billionaire status, but my taking the wrong fork each time was entirely my fault. I simply didn't see what in hindsight was obvious.

I'm missing something right now that could make me a billion dollars, and in five years I'll be able to tell you what it was :-)
I think you are attracting downvotes because you completely mistook my point.

I support Free software - financially, by evangelising it, by writing it, and by using it.

My point was that I think some large companies are getting a lot more value from their use of it than the authors and maintainers get from working on it.

Definitely a challenge, heat dissipation is "easier" if you can glue it to a plumbed 1/2" thick copper heat exchanger.

I had an opportunity see a laser sintered copper heat exchanger that was very very efficient. Pumping in water and pulling out steam efficient. It was pretty cool.

Because of relativity, you can have locations A and B in spacetime and a frame of reference such that A happens before B and a different frame such that B happens before A.

So, if you're at A, you can travel faster than the speed of light and arrive before B happens. Then, after B happens, you can travel back to before A happens.

How would you approach hiring that senior developer? I am well connected for fundraising but we are still early stage enough that optimally we wouldn't be using a significant amount of money to hire lead developers.
you only need two operators, the kubeoperator, the dataflow operator

"Fifth, the idea that people "will just move to another country" is very silly. If some people do leave, or start companies only in other jurisdictions, that just means there's a market opportunity for the many people who remain."

I think you misunderstand this in two different ways.

First, retirees on fixed incomes are acutely, almost comically attuned to state income tax rates, property taxes, etc., and many of them plan their entire retirement and residency around it.

Second, although I agree with you that it is very difficult to just arbitrarily uproot and move your family, etc., because of a tax code change, it's not that difficult for wealthy people - especially those expecting a liquidity event - to buy a house on Lake Tahoe on the Nevada side and take the kids out of school for (365/2) days. "Remember that time we spent the ski season on the lake ?"

Wealth advisors and family office managers, etc., speak of this casually. Further, if you live in a wealthy community in the Bay Area (Ross ? Los Gatos ?) you'll see third or fourth cars with Nevada plates. Not an accident.

So, yes - I think you're right - nobody is going to stop living in California if we continue to increase the top end tax rate ... but define "living".

We just finished our TS migration, I wonder if this would have helped.
I think he meant he solved the mystery, but not how to stop it from happening.
I suppose it requires a stretch of the understanding of what it would mean to go "back in time". If you were to literally travel backwards in time, but not retain knowledge of the future, that would be useless. What is desired is to be in a state where you are at time T with knowledge from time T+1. So, by traveling through the wormhole, you would arrive there with knowledge that could not have reached it from the direct path until some time later. You might even travel through the wormhole, observe your own past, and return back again.

But yes, generally speaking, there is no known means to travel back in time before the moment of creation of the time machine itself.
If you dont want the hassle, there are basically only two choices on the Consumer NAS market.

Synology, and you should also look for and ONLY buy models which support Btrfs. Silent file corruption is very real.

Personally I am waiting for Qnap's Hero Edition OS, because I just love ZFS.

Other than these two, I am not aware of any other consumer NAS which support either of these file system.

Or may be someday Blackblaze decide to enter NAS market :D

>> Inequality in your country has risen dramatically the past 30 years.

> Why should I or anyone care?

Are you inside or outside the gated community?
General wealth taxes are bad because they punish creators of productive assets. However, we can address one major negative cause/consequence of inequality - rents eating all personal income - by instituting a land value tax. Land is one type of wealth which does not exist due to anyone's effort and needs no incentive to create. Furthermore, it will not flee the country if taxed at a 100% rate. The proceeds to land value belong to the community, and a LVT could drastically help ameliorate the expense of shelter as most rents go towards paying a premium for location.

Technologists are well suited to advocate for a land value tax because unlike other industrialists, land and natural resources are only a cost to us, and we possess capital in abundance.
Your tax dollars as a wealthy individual also pay for the police forces to keep the less wealthy people from coming and just taking your property, as they might in a state with zero taxes and thus zero public services, without you spending extra money to hire security who would be loyal only to your dollar and who you couldn’t trust not to turn on you in an instant since it might just have no consequences for them without a judicial system.
There's also rules on launching a satellite with capabilities below 10m per pixel on the basis of national security. At least if you're an American company anyway, can't vouch for elsewhere but they're a bit behind the tech curve (at least in the private sector) in this field (but not by much) so it hasn't really come up yet as an issue so far.

There was an image that Trump tweeted a satellite image about something in Iran a while back, I forget the actual reason. But it was a declassified image of something and some keen eyed observers did some analysis on it and concluded the resolution was better than what is "Officially" out there. So it's safe to say there's better out there that we just don't know about yet.

Yes. The difference between 100k-400km in LEO is far different from 22000km in GEO. Planet Labs updated their licenses for a few satellites a couple of months back to gain double digit percentage resolution quality increases by dropping the orbit (I think it was somewhere about by 50km to the lower end of that range) for example. The trade off is that you hit more atmosphere in that lower orbit and will reenter the atmosphere much sooner. So that increases the number of launches you need to do to replenish your fleet. Which is $$$.

Also, they have greater relative velocities so require better targeting and command & control technology to compensate.
And? Did you think Facebook bought them cuz they thought VR was cool.

Have you worked with one before? It's best to hire someone you've worked with in the past. If you don't have work experience it gets more difficult.

Before Corona I told people to go where developers are e.g. meetups and conferences and listen to speakers, talk to them and then hire one of them. Now it's a little bit more difficult.

When conferences start again (probably too late for you), go to meetups and conferences with a tshirt that says "Looking for a CTO, I'll hand you $10 if you have an interesting CV".

Create a coding contest, interview the top five, hire the best.

Look at your potential competitors or customers on Linkedin and hire on of their senior developers.

But I admit it's currently harder to meet developers.

Dimple locks are exceedingly common here in Japan, and German padlocks (Abus, etc.) are generally considered what you want to buy if you're actually trying to secure something.

The thing is, those locks are more expensive to produce, both in terms of metallurgy and skilled labor. Germany has done a solid job of ensuring that it retains local experience in both areas, through a combination of tariffs, a robust skilled-trade education system, and consumer preference for domestic goods.

American consumers, on the other hand, tend to be very price-sensitive, and Master locks are cheap.

That's not to say that there aren't some rock-solid American locks, but Germany and Japan tend to be the leaders here (and for the same reason)

If you're keen to learn more about locks and security, I suggest having a look at LockPickingLawyer on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCm9K6rby98W8JigLoZOh6FQ

He assumes the value of your shares don't increase :

https://dqydj.com/stock-return-calculator/

Let's assume you have $10k of AAPL shares and assume a 1% yearly tax on the value of your assets and go with this for a few years:

start end value_after_tax tax_payed
20090120 10000 0
20090120 20100120 25842.79 258
20100120 20110120 39605.17 396
20110120 20120120 48493.94 489
20120120 20130120 59707.69 603
20130120 20140120 75046.31 758.04

If you do the above every year until today you have $528,254.27. With 0% wealth tax you'd have $592,361.08. So you basically payed an overall rate of ~11% without ever selling and paying capital gains tax. If the value of your investment is not going up by at least 1% every year then it's time to get rid of it, AAPL did have some bad negative years though. In any case, if such a tax gives us healthcare, education, housing, guarantees no one goes hungry, and a UBI for everyone then I'm all for it.

The billable hour is not actually an hour; it's more fine-grained than that [1]. It may vary from one jurisdiction to another, but the example I found uses 0.1 hour as the increment. The result is that it's possible for a lawyer to spend 8 hours working, and bill more than 8 hours. E.g. assume a lawyer calls a client and gets an answering machine. Three minutes on the phone can be billed at 0.1 hour. Of course, slack time can't be billed, so it probably evens out.
