In addition, I still don't understand the benefits of this thing for serverless. Most of my personal projects actually don't have the problem of splitting resources and don't have the opportunity to use something from serverless. I use a lot of docker in my development process because it makes it very easy for me to deploy. A project, a very small proportion of memory, fast speed, less than 100 lines of code, this is where I feel the most comfortable.
> Progressive taxation has the exact opposite function to what you're suggesting. It's a mechanism designed to reduce economic inequality and the poverty among the low income workers.

I am not advocating that low income workers pay higher taxes - in fact they should be exempt. I am saying that if you are from such family, progressive tax ensures you'll stay in your lane.

> That figure is misleading, because it includes a set of expenses like social security, health insurance, government pension plans etc. Corporations don't pay that and that's why the difference may seems so big

My number is based on what you get in your pocket from your salary (plus employer's national insurance that is most of the time hidden from the payslip)
I didn't include local taxes (like council tax) and so on.
Corporations are supposed to pay Corporation Tax, but they can too easily transfer profits offshore and largely avoid that in contrast to SME who mostly pay this tax.

Progressive tax ensures that person from poor background will stay poor.
There's a dark mode in the last 2? 3? versions? The main problem with Android wrt visual jank is now that lockscreen doesn't respect the night light, that night light fades in after unlock instead of being on immediately and that the automatic brightness has feedback loops that make brightness spike when display turns on or changes to white content (sensor detects phone light as ambient and turns up the brightness, over and over).
I work in a primarily C# shop. I am often quite annoyed at some of coworkers code due to it being what I feel is needlessly over abstracted.

Everyone they employ already pays tax.

Everyone that gets a dividend pays tax.

Everyone that enjoys capital growth pays tax.

Just looking at the direct corporate tax rate is grossly myopic.
> In Germany this means that there are actually really good voice over artists that dub so well (sync with the actor's lips so well) you can barely tell the audio is not original.

It's weird how perceptions can differ. I found that German dubs are pretty bad, you lose pretty much all emotion in it and if you don't know the language spoken in the movie, using subtitles is preferable over German audio.

> I also grew up with the luxury of having learnt English well enough from young age to a proficiency that I can watch movies in English just as well as in my mother's tongue.

Chicken and egg, really. You get much better at understanding English if you watch movies. My reading comprehension shot up when we were offered a subscription of Time magazine at very affordable rates (for secondary school students).

> So, as far as I can tell, they're very far from creating "common European culture".

Hopefully. But if anyone does, please don't do it by translating it into any and all languages. Let's just settle on English and slowly fade out traditional European languages to a heritage thing that you learn for fun and use on special occasions with your grand parents.
Why would a company just sit on funds like that? It makes no sense. Any cash a company has is usually in short term investments.

The current offshore “hoarding” is actually due to the current tax code.
For (single) self-employed people making between ~$85k and $137k, the marginal federal tax rate they face is a little under 40%, with 24% from your link, ~12% from Social security, and ~3% from Medicare. This excludes the effect of phaseouts of various deductions (eg, student loan interest), which can easily drive that higher while remaining within the context of federal taxation only.
I see a lot more driving Toyota Corollas. Making a car is not a new thing, even electric cars are nothing new.

And as for Space X, space travel is also nothing new. We have been traveling to space since 60 years and vertical landing and reusable space vehicles had been done before.

All these stuff is simply re-do of the stuff humans did in the past but failed commercially. As I said, Musk is brilliant in building commercial systems. This time we have better cheaper technology and these things can actually be feasible.

I don't really have an issue with this. 1% tax is more than sufficient to run this country.

The first step to a balanced budget is to stop impulse spending on dumb stuff.

My only gripe is I'm not allowed to pay a 1% tax, as I should be.

I'm sure I just got hit by a not-so-new idea: to tax corporations on profit-per-employee basis. Automation tax, efficiency tax. Imagine the discourse!
This is always brought up but it isn't double taxation, the individual is paying income tax and that has nothing to do with the corporation tax.
Thanks, fixed.

My ex-company was an web agency, we were spinning out new projects every few weeks. I developped a "project generator" (more dynamic than a boilerplate) that would create a full project with Django-React-ReactNative-Postgres, with the Terraform configuration to deploy to AWS. Apparently it was huge for sales, and got projects starting on the right foot. You can probably make that into a full product!
Tone deaf it is.

I got started in Ruby by following “Rails Tutorial”. Back then I was a bit arrogant about it and parroted a bunch the DHH bunk.

My charitable reading is they are looking for someone who sees the language as a framework around the OS.

That’s the kind of programmer I feel like I am now. It comes more than anything from learning Objective-C where the fact that the language is a construct is obvious once you encounter an `objc_msgSend()` alongside a [myString uppercaseString]; (or any other message send.)
To add to that - they essentially appropriate taxes workers pay as their own taxes - as if they owned the work that worker put their life into. This is insanely evil.

The proportion of mysql is actually very high, maybe a few hundred megabytes of memory, if we use files, etc., in fact, the proportion of memory will not exceed a few meters. I prefer tools that are fast, consume less resources, develop fewer lines of code, and are not overpackaged. Many tools completely cover up the details, causing you to learn exactly the concepts created by these tools. I hate this kind of thing very much now, and of course, if teamwork is needed, it may still be useful.
They are. I’d be pretty upset if I wasn’t able to deduct such expenses from my taxes.
The EDA tools are often given for almost free to startups, as the vendors recognise startups can't start without them, and if they are too expensive to a fledgling company they are shooting themselves in the foot. Startups get the tools, but not the support. I'm in HW chip design and use EDA tools daily, and while they are not always great, I would not be as concerned about them for a startup as I would getting enough money to create the first prototype, fab costs, lab equipment costs, man years of engineering, and of course the IP.
I’m curious how many are still using WebForms or the new equivalent? Then claim they know C#

You could write an OpenGL 1.x backend for Dear ImGui (ImGui "officially" doesn't come with any rendering backends, although the example backends can be considered "semi-offical").

All that's needed for GL 1.x is to convert the vertex- and index-data you're getting from ImGui into triangle glBegin/End call sequences. But what's the point when all relevant platforms support at least OpenGL 2.x for at least a (more like two) decade(s)?

Wagtail is built on Django so it's easy for a developer to customise it for their own needs. It also allows you to easily create a website/webapp hybrid. There is not a lot of good CMSes built on popular web frameworks.

Wordpress has very little base functionality in it's API. Plugins consist mostly of vanilla PHP, so it's more difficult to extend. It's like what web development was 20 years ago. On the other hand it's great for non-developers because of the amount of the plugins and themes available.
I only made small changes to my workflow over the last 10 years. My productivity is way above average.
You need to use a callback. That's not asynchronous or non blocking.
>Like trying to learn from images instead of the 3d world. Humans learn to distinguish between objects in a 3-dimensional space using sight and interaction. This learning generalizably transfers to recognition in 2 dimensions.

If we use human "comprehension" as a reference point, then the relevant point of comparison should be the understanding a human can develop given the same inputs.
I agree that his original contributions might not be so important as believed by those who actually do not know them in detail.

On the other hand, as a child I have enjoyed very much the Feynman Lectures on Physics, much more than most other similar books.

I am certainly very grateful to him, because his work had a very positive influence on me, when I was young.
Comparatively, I've spent 4 years of my life on a CompSci degree + 2 years on a GIS Advanced Diploma achieved over 10 years ago mind you). There was a point in my life a few years ago where my study was so unnoticed and under appreciated that I gave it up and now I just do full project management - and I barely even do that.

I blame the internet and the accessibility of knowledge to the point where people can go "IDK WTF this is, but lemme google it".

It's a work machine. My own computers all run Linux or OpenBSD (with a few exceptions, like the old laptop running Haiku).
I really don't care about apps, I've barely ever ran into app compatibility issues on older devices. What I care about is security updates.

Julia Computing, has a bunch of case studies. It is used in valuable systems. [1]

Kindergarten is, first and foremost, free daycare; a place to warehouse children so their mothers can work, without paying for childcare.

When I was five, we still had half-day kindergarten, and that was more than enough for the very modest and realistic scholastic expectations. Those consisted of learning the letters, doing circle time to go over the weather and the days of the week and count how many days of school we'd endured, and a healthy charge of playing with blocks.

Public schools have to deal with both precocious children and those who are essentially feral, and this problem seems to be getting worse as the atomization of society progresses.

That was my point. At least some of Musks’s claims were based in reality and so he was able to deliver something. The entirety of Holmes’ claims were fictional. That’s the difference.

For Napoleon, I suspect there's not _that_ much danger of that, because if Netflix is developing a show to be shown all over Europe... well, Napoleon is somewhat less popular elsewhere in Europe. Just a bit.
> The whole system of relying on cheap labor in developing countries would have to change somewhat with decelerating population. The stuff in the West would be more expensive, although maybe with fewer workers wages couldn't be so stagnant.

I don't think that's necessarily an obvious outcome. Right now cheap labor is taking away incentives to automate. Some things can't be automated economically, but given broad incentives across industry there will be a reorienting towards automation. For instance mobile phones components would be designed to be assembled without human intervention.

Of course creating the automation requires labor but much less and it is more one-off.

Yep, total tax rate.
What would be the incentive for this?

The whole point is for stakeholders to eventually get paid in a taxable event; either shareholders through a capital gains taxable event or employees through an income taxable event.

Some tech companies are hoarding cash but I don't believe this is due to incentives created by taxation, although I could be mistaken.

ELI5: How Insurance Works
I’m aware, but I don’t see how that has a relevance to discussion Netflix’s federal income tax liability. My point was people in these comments are throwing out personal tax liability figures for comparison including various things such as state taxes, social security, Medicare, which makes things not very comparable.
Higher tax bracket reduces the pool of people competing for properties in favour of people who already have money - from wealthy parents or their businesses, if they are lucky or depending how easily they can get a loan (here we have a plague of buy to let loans that let people with some money buy properties left and right)
In my opinion housing here is artificially limited as it is over-regulated and you can't simply buy a land and build a house on it.
All that combined it makes it accessible only for the rich and if you are from a poor background you are unlikely to join them because of numerous stops put in place.

I meant bash is slower than perl. Python is also slower than perl. Python is quicker than bash in number/string operations in process, but much slower than bash in startup. 'Quick parse phase' is exactly the reason; it is not quick. Try to execute 1000 python processes and then 1000 bash processes that do something simple like add numbers given as command line arguments. Python is order of magnitude slower to finish.
I don’t know that much about mobile development aside from as a user, but I guess the disappearance of a manufacturer is somewhat similar to the disappearance of a web browser, but probably worse because you also loose all the hardware possibilities, and I always thought that LG had some interesting phone designs, especially the dual screen devices, a bit experimental, but it seemed though at some stage one of them would lead to something really novel.
