Another advantage (for Embark) is their main engine codebase is also in Rust. This allows for sharing of some code on GPU and CPU. This isn't uncommon in the game industry, for example header files that compile in both C++ and HLSL in order to share struct definitions for CPU code and GPU code, and CPU math libraries that use HLSL types and semantics.

Rust is different enough from GLSL and HLSL (most game engines use HLSL as "native" and cross compile to GLSL, MSL or use header defines to build PSSL) that introducing a new shading language compatible with Rust is probably worth the effort for them.
Agree that FAIR.org does not live up to its name. After skimming some, their story choices and language used seem to lean away from center and unbiased. Was really hopeful for a new news source from the domain name, such a disappointment
How good are these reviews really? I'm thinking of top tier security pros on the calibre of Project Zero/Google. Doubt most hacks would have gotten past a thorough audit by those folks.
Is this the case too with other resources, like users? I noticed that those loops can become pretty time consuming as the user list gets larger.
Possibly not what you mean but I very strongly believe tax rates should he a minimum where you can set your own (and displayed publicly) tax rate above a certain level for your income.

Both physically and online, as someone who grew up not poor but far far from rich i.e. I've still only been abroad from the UK twice in my (so far short) life, I am absolutely sick of rich people saying "I'd pay more tax if I could" as a throwaway gesture. I increasingly think an underlying motive of why I study fairly intensely is just to end up better than those who were born better than me.

If you really believe that, put your money where your mouth is.
Thanks for breaking the API so fast. Hot fixing now.
You know Obama's justice department conducted more leak prosecutions than all modern presidents combined? IDK what Trump's numbers are but his justice department is using processes and reasoning established by Obama's.

Maybe Biden would pardon Snowden but it will be a hollow symbolic victory. Unless he explicitly sets to dismantling Obama's machine, it will churn ever on at the whims of whomever is president.
Its not making the argument that wealth taxes are good because wealthy people oppose them, only that their point of view on the topic is deeply self serving and masquerading as an objective analysis.
Okay, so let's say you get a really good signal between your satellites and manage 1mbps at interplanetary distances.

Even if you get a super cheap launch you just spent tens of millions of dollars on storing... 300 megabytes.
For a vehicle of this size, that might be only 60 miles or so. It's possible to drive normally and still find yourself short on charge every night. A 48A circuit is probably required for acceptable charging times.

Plus it would be legitimately expensive, since you're blowing through 40 kWh every day. Compared to a gasoline car that's normally sized, this might be more expensive to drive.

Can it be also an incentive to work less, since most of the results of your hard work will be taken from you in form of taxes, or you would need to 'hide the profits' potentially forever?
Strange. Business owner friends of mine have taken the opposite approach over the years.

Taxes low? Start up something new, get it going. Taxes go up again? Sell it off (if they haven't already) and go back to early retirement doing whatever.

Maybe it is largely the type of business that behavior changes. Their last venture was starting up an aquaponics farm in a borderline urban / suburban area, though I haven't kept in touch and it appears to have been sold off to another family.

That's a good point. Right now it's unclear whether the Dem AGs really do reject the suit or whether they just don't want to add legitimacy pre-election.

Did sound an awful lot like they thought the suit was ill-timed and half-baked, though. I might have been misled by editorial content in the reporting.
Seems like you're describing this product exactly:

No mass surveillance is similarly irresponsible, albeit in an entirely different manner, to unchecked mass surveillance.

The sweet spot is to have mechanisms and institutions in place to adequately "watch the watchers watching the watchers". Instead, we get judges putting on a dog and pony show, while our IC leaders were originally forced to lie or mislead about the secret programs.

Americans are wildly spoiled. We now have, by far, the most libertarian policies regarding E2EE, on a global basis. Take a bow, Ed, this is all your doing.

This. You might want to get checked for arrythmia if you haven't. My dad registered as having bradycardia using the home devices. What was actually happening is that he had a more normal heart rate at like 70 to 80 but that the beats were irregular and some weren't strong enough to be detected by basic heart rate measurement devices. It was only an EKG that was able to accurately detect his real heart rate.
That's very reductive. You should know that the Federal Income Tax that was first collected in 1913 had a top bracket of 7%. Today, the minimum bracket is 10% and the average middle class citizen pays around 12-18% of their income to the IRS.

So sure, the wealth tax would only be on "the rich" when it first starts out but I guarantee you the middle class will be hit by it eventually.

That's why you pair them with capital controls, to keep that from happening. This, unfortunately, requires significant cooperation from the international community, and ought to be done before any wealth tax is imposed.

BTW, have you seen how expensive it is for high net worth individuals to renounce US citizenship?
This is a wealth tax that would apply to the valuation of the business, not the profits that it makes.

So I guess I have been using Emacs for at least 36 years. Did they mean to say GNU Emacs?
Oh please. Of course they don't meant that. Because you can totally give money to the government. https://www.fiscal.treasury.gov/public/gifts-to-government.h...

What they actually mean is "I wish you made me pay more". Because they can't bring themselves to write a check to -give- it away, but -do- feel they should have to pay more. Part of that is the social aspect; why should I, as a rich person, be paying more than other people of similar wealth? But I support all of us paying more.
It's for the simple reason that many, many Americans would rather get (unknowingly) fucked by corporations for all eternity rather than the government attempt any sort of solution. In many respects, you can't blame them given how insanely wasteful the federal government is. However, corporations don't give a shit about you and never will. It's this point that people can't understand.
If the purpose of the media is just to reflect the world-view you already have, then there is no point to the media.

Also, nobody says that you have to read the NY Times. There's, both in the US and internationally, a huge range of media of all sorts of political convictions, which you can read instead, although as said: the best possible option is to read from multiple sources with hopefully different takes on a particular topic (e.g. it's also sometimes good to read foreign media because they will inevitably have a different perspective). The point is more that there is value in editorialised content as opposed to random people screaming on social media. Plus, your favourite professor or historian is likely to have written columns for newspapers, too.
Not that long ago people were running from Russia and doing their best to defect to the US, with any information they could bring with them. I'm sure that if you were alive back then you never once characterized that the same way you do it now with Snowden. If you wanted accuracy you'd have come here with way more than a flimsy story and a conclusion that's pure speculation. But that's what you brought.

> people view this as a Russian op

"People". Does any of them make a stronger case than you? Or does everyone simply reference "people" to support their conclusions? People also say the onlines are full of trolls and sock-puppet accounts creating narratives.

You should be in the streets demanding that the people responsible for that "only one illegal program" be put in prison but here you are arguing that the person who gave them away should be there instead purely because he may or may not be associated with a US enemy.
Don't just sit on the couch Fight skin cancer on the couch
If my wealth comes from owning a percentage of a company (say I own 30% of AMZN) what is the way to tax me other than taking my shares, i.e. the Gov would take certain percentage of my shares? And if we go that route how many years would it go by before Gov owned majority of shares of most companies?

Lots of people scream that we should tax the wealthy but I do not follow how you tax someone whose wealth comes from large ownership of a big company...?
That seems like the way the incentive is supposed to work no? Motivate the economy by furthering investment back into it.

To the extent that they do it for themselves alone, which is making an assumption about intent.

Many wealthy people honestly believe that low taxes drive economic growth that is good for all.

It still goes against the principle of defense in depth. You defeat one layer and you gain control over everything.

Even if that layer is composed of a password and MFA, it is still one layer.

Breathing exercises were a big part of the taoism books I studied. IIRC, because breathing is voluntary and involuntary at the same time. This is where the Spirit and the body meet.

Breathing exercises help move your "inner energy" through your body. The book I'd recommend is the Tao Te Ching if you're interested.

SwaggerHub: Hosted and Interactive API Documentation
What frustrates me about this whole argument over wealth taxes is that the arguments aren't grounded in facts. The reality is that we "pay" for inequality with reduced productivity. A great example of this is "single family home neighborhoods" in urban areas. They have no societal benefit, they are essentially subsidized land use patterns for the well off, and it makes it harder for less well of folks to move to areas where they can get a better job/improve their lot in life and grow the economy. There is a very strong case that one reason for sluggish economic growth is the concentration of assets and wealth in so few hands, and the continuing stagnation/decline in wealth/living standards/etc of bottom 40% of the US when measured in things like "healthcare", "education" etc. A redistributive wealth tax that was well structured could be a huge boon to GDP growth.
If this is the case and the source of energy is unclean, then how does it compare to its ICE counterpart in terms of CO2 output?

Their point is not about how to pass in those parameters to the `package` task. They want to reuse the list of items as the value of the tags list, which they can't without duplicating the list.
This is so hidden in the debate that it is almost like a "secret". The more taxes you have on corporate income, the higher the incentive for corporations to invest in the company, so they can avoid paying taxes. This is good for the economy.

On the other hand, lowering corporate taxes also generates a cascade of tax avoidance, since you have higher profits that generate the need for more complex tax avoidance schemes to reduce taxation on that large amount of money.

I’m not aware of anything that says a pardon requires a court trial, so correct me if I’m wrong, but a pardon isn’t saying “you’re free to go,” but actually saying (in essence) “that crime never happened.” When Manning’s sentence was commuted, that was “you’re free to go” because commuting a sentence (in essence) means “you’ve served your time”

Isn't that just another myth peddled by wealthy groups? This was a pretty good study and didn't find that effect[1].

Just on the face of it, sure if you're wealthier you have greater ability to move but that also means you probably like where you are because you chose to be there. Most of my high school friends dispersed around the country solely for job opportunities, not because they wanted to be somewhere.

Asana: Untapping a Freemium Reservoir
Federal taxes have been going down my whole life (born 1990 in the US). What era/region are you referring to where taxes go up?
I don't see how you came to your conclusion. Gov would tax you as they do now (including when you receive shares for instance), by asking you money. It is up to you to find it. If your assets are illiquid, then it is your problem not the government's one -- and in some cases it can indeed be quite unfair, e.g. for some startup employees.
The Tesla Cybertruck with 500+ miles range, plus the solar tonneau vault door that generates 40+ miles a day might be pretty good though.

I can't believe it's already been in manufacturing design for a year next month!

Focus on Vulkan graphics shaders first, then after Vulkan compute shaders

So no compute support yet. Also, Rust-GPU's focus is writing shaders in Rust, in order to support a game engine, so the focus will be real-time graphics and simulation. It seems like it will never evolve into a CUDA like heterogeneous environment that's more common in scientific computing and ML.
This is very similar to saying that charities should deal with these issues (homelessness, drug additction, etc) not the government. Charities rely on donations. I strongly think that the government should be dealing with these things.

I think I should be taxed more but I also don't think that me voluntarily paying 1% more tax will change anything. However everyone playing 1% more tax will so fundamentally change everything that it's worth doing.

I don't say "I'd pay more tax if I could" I say "I should pay more tax and so should everyone else earning as much as me"

>I increasingly think an underlying motive of why I study fairly intensely is just to end up better than those who were born better than me.
You might want to consider the fact then that social mobility is generally higher in countries with higher tax rates.
I mean who cares if it requires a hand on the wheel at this point? The important thing is that Tesla is making progress toward L4, and with this update they are closer than ever.
It depends on the module; the user module works on one entity at a time, so you have to loop at the task level, which does take a little longer that trying to pass through a batch of user data at once.
If we grant that this argument is valid, do the same implications apply to the contrapositive case? E.g. people who aren't wealthy that support wealth taxes (or higher taxes on people who earn more than them).
People say that because that's the very likely truth. We know his passport got declared invalid. It's standard procedure. The timeline is also normal as the story was developing quickly once he revealed he was the source.

It would be marginally faster (best case probably a percent or two) for a much more expensive charging circuit. The reason for this is that you can discharge batteries much faster than you can charge them.

Also, it seems like you're imagining that you can charge batteries with more power if you charge them in parallel instead of series. This isn't true since you're just trading a higher voltage/lower current for a lower voltage/higher current.
I think the OP is talking about investing within the business. The business is a separate legal entity with its own income, expenditures, and assets that is under the control of its owner. Assuming that you want to continue owning the business as a going concern, it makes sense to maximize expenditures (by investing in the future) and minimize profits when tax rates are high. But if you're happy entering and exiting the business as a whole, it makes sense to sell it (transferring money equal to its value to your personal balance sheet) when taxes are low and about to go up, and then just not work while taxes are high.

Inflation can put a bit of a wrinkle in this, since if you get $20M for your business and then you find that that's worth the equivalent of $2M in 5-10 years it can crimp your early retirement.

Try proposing that to your local government and see if you can convince them. We still live in a democracy.

For that matter, churches can already hold services in the parking lot or a nearby public park or some other place outdoors, right? That's how Jesus did it - He didn't preach inside a church building. Why not adapt?
