Could Tesla not have just decided that any new purchases would be converted to the dollar immediately? Accepting Bitcoin doesn’t necessarily mean holding Bitcoin and holding is where valuation matters. If I’m right about that it sounds like this could have a somewhat environmentally conscious motive.

I definetly agree with raising it, it's basically entirely useless right now as it's so low awful jobs already pay more than it anyway. it just seems trying to make it entirely inflation adjusted is ignoring the reality of women entering the workforce. I think two people working full time on minimum wage should be able to afford a stable family though.
Property ownership doesn't exist without threat of violence. What's to stop me taking the phone you're holding? It's the threat of violence from you or society in general.

Money and taxes are just abstractions on top of the property ownership one, if you want to get rid of taxes you'll need to get rid of property ownership. Many cultures were this way.
File a problem with Feedback Assistant. Or exchange it, I suppose.
I might prefer this as an employee. I've never really negotiated for salary and always wondered if I was losing money as a result. The average employee might be better off with negotiation though.

The one time I tried, I had told my boss I was leaving, and he asked if there was anything they could do to keep me. I suggested he could pay more and he said he couldn't do that.

OK, Digital Native, go create some content edited to the quality and style of something like https://www.tiktok.com/@happykelli [1]

Content Creators today on TikTok and Youtube are as talented and multifaceted as some of the most talented musicians of previous generations. And they're using the tools of the day.

Don't be condescending because they don't know the low level abstractions that are completely irrelevant to them any longer.

They are pushing the envelope and doing advanced shit with the best tools available to them JUST LIKE YOU USED TO.

[1] I feel like I might even have to use this example for anyone whose understanding of TikTok is just "pick an effect from a dropdown list then make funny faces at the camera until the ML algorithm generates something awesome".

Most of the videos of this person are completely impossible to create natively through the app. They require a clever combination of built-in filters, and offline video postprocessing, and extremely precise editing. Plus some awesome dancing.

I think it makes sense to standardize some word for the difference, especially since you’re talking about a commodity.

I imagine cheap meat is going to be qualitatively different than cheap Meetabix or whatever they will call it for some years. “It came from a cow” will impose some kind of minimum quality standard — and it’s not clear that standard will always be met in a non standardized market of bovine cell growers.

And the inputs are different. Should an increase in cow meat futures drive up grain prices or plastic clamshell prices?
Nah let’s do both. If a company wants to spin a pro-social image - Uber is currently asking consumers to donate vaccine rides - then they sure as hell can take the heat for avoiding pro-social taxes.

At a minimum, they should pay that tax savings towards vaccine rides. I won’t hold my breath.

For Russian-speaking people, one interesting investigation of Dyatlov incident is ongoing here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDZTS1BXsSHUkZeVK5T1q7w/fea... - The author is an artist who is looking for anatomical anomalies in the photos from morgue (i.e. wrong length of the bone -> possible fracture, etc). He also tries to find the correspondence between the found abnormalities and omissions made in the autopsy reports (i.e. for one of the victims whose photo indicates that they might be missing an eye, the autopsy report conveniently describes only the other eye...)
Yes, you’re doing it wrong. You could store these “claims” in the same backend cache, keyed by the session_id.
With the price of solar so much cheaper than anything else, solar will almost certainly be overbuilt times of solar output exceeding overall demand. This will probably lead to negative energy spot prices at specific times during the day. People will want to figure out a way how to use this energy. Maybe it will be pumped hydro, batteries, compressed air, or hydrogen. Maybe it'll even lead to colocation with aluminum smelting or something like that.

The point is something needs to be figured out how to handle the increasingly excess energy supply. Each technology has a different set of tradeoffs. Hydrogen is a potential but if it has any chance of succeeding, the technology has to be built now and quickly. Once a specific solution has momentum, it will be difficult to overcome. Large scale batteries seem to have the lead for now but the weight efficiency has always been an issue. I imagine at least one of the more weight efficient solutions will gain some reasonable % of market share.
Which is the core point: the major processors aren't being limited by their technology, they're being limited by the size of the economy. There's no real meaningful limit on how they can scale that.

Just barely creeping across the line with crypto means its already inadequate.
Why not both? Dissatisfaction drives change. Yes, companies are expected to take advantage of legal means of increasing value, but there is a spectrum of behavior between "shrewd" and "immoral" that still falls entirely within "legal", and the individual human beings in the affected society reasonably have opinions about where the line is. When the numbers are too disgusting, it's OK for people to express dissatisfaction with both lawmakers and the company in question, market forces be damned.

And let's not forget that the companies frequently play an outsize role in influencing the written laws. The line between "playing the game" and "cheating" is very fuzzy in real world systems.

As the article mentions in a sidenote, a time-bounded revoked sessions table is small enough to keep in memory and can be updated via pubsub for the relatively infrequent case where you need to revoke one.

It's definitely more complex but at certain scales it might be worth it.

If you drop backwards compatibility, you can get a lot of headroom for better performance.

Apple is in a unique position of being able to force a new architecture on its customers, without losing them. They have done it twice. They even aren't exactly compatible with normal ARM, due to a special agreement with ARM Holdings.

Intel had I960, quite cool and successful, and could not capitalize on it in the long term for low-power devices. Intel bought rights to ARM, and could not capitalize on it in the long term either, even though ARM was well-suited for battery-powered devices, and sold it!

Intel used to be the king of data centres, using an architecture from 1980s, extended and pimped up to the brim — but still beholden by backwards compatibility. And a king it still is. But this pillar seems to shake more and more.

I don't think this is a result of poor engineering. It was, to my mind, a set of business bets, which worked well, until they didn't any more.

The trump tax changes actually did. IIRC, a US corporation is taxed either 20% of US net income or 10% of global net income with credits for overseas taxes paid, whichever is more. Corrections welcome, I likely misremembered something. The idea being if you paid at least 10% on the income in the jurisdiction where it was earned, great; if not, you'll pay it at home.

This replaced a higher rate on US net income and global net income that lands in the US.

Volvo has not decided that electric or hydrogen is not viable yet.

There was good reason for GMs decision, the battery tech and costs in early 2000s were not simply viable for mass market adoption at that time. They were not interested in niche product.

Battery cost per kwh had reduced orders of magnitude now. It is still not price competitive with gasoline bases vechiles but is close , in another five years it will be cheaper than gasoline vehicles.

The equations have fundamentally changed in 20 years.

Volvo or any large maker has no need to be first in the market , they just need to have good enough product when adoption kicks in, their network, brand and service will be enough to compete.

While they will invest, they don't need to bet the farm in a make or break product that startups will need to do.
At a high level the executive order contains more-or-less what people had been expecting (there have been several reports about what it would probably contain ahead-of-time).

I let google autocomplete "Beyond" and found "Beyond Bread." Without looking, and without previous brand recognition, tell me what "beyond" bread means.
At first I wondered if "Swiss" was just being used as a marketing word, but was pleased to see that the people behind it are indeed from Switzerland.

That said, the "OMxx" moniker reminds me more of diesel engines... and following from that thought, in the automotive world there is a huge aftermarket of parts that were clearly copies/derived from the originals, so I think "open source" applied to a physical object has a somewhat strange connotation: "open source" as a concept originated because software is licensed and not sold, but physical objects are usually sold, not licensed.
I wish spreadsheets had better support for version control and automated regression testing. Tons of people can program, and they'd all be well-served by such tools.
> Wouldn't you just need a list of logged-out JWTs?

Sure, but that's not a real improvement. It's still stateful since you need to check the list with every request, you can't just verify the signature. Changing the logic from "must be in this list" versus "must not be in this list" does not give you much -- maybe some performance gain, depending on the situation.

> And that's if you really cared.

Well, that's my point. Developers may not care, but from the point of view of a security auditor, it's a vulnerability in your auth system, so the GRC/Security people do care, even if Foo start up doesn't. At some point, if Foo is successful, they will face this issue and need to support real logout to get the certifications they need to do business or be in compliance.
This same logic was paraded around in 2017 and it's gone mostly nowhere in the years since.
They could try to detect incipient political situations, similar to how they detect trending tweets, and then treat reports related to those tweets with greater than usual scrutiny.

I don't think anyone expects Twitter or other social media companies to get this perfect. The nature of the problem means there will always be edge cases, debatable calls, and algorithms automatically doing unfortunate things. I do think there is a reasonable expectation for these companies to both do more and make progress.
If your environment is such that 5 minutes of lag between logout end a token being invalidated, you can always just verify the token against the auth server per request.

JWT comes in handy for most of your site where it isn’t such a big deal. That way you aren’t flooding your auth server with calls; all your web servers can just validate the token themselves up until a refresh is required.

Basically JWT let’s you have your cake and eat it too. Significantly less load on your auth backend while still letting sensitive parts of the site verify on every request.

Yikes. Being comparable to amazon in price, purely because of how much amazon overcharges for bandwidth, is not exactly a flattering comparison.

If you were to add the $1.15 storage cost onto a reasonable bandwidth number like $0.01/GB you'd just about reach a third of $5.

$40k??? People actually care about $40k in this forum? Just form a startup and get a VC. If you can't afford $40k, buy a used car.

New car prices will continue to rise as long as people continue to pay for them. That, to me, is inflation.

Rofl... Sorry no you are completely off base.

First off I hope the only that keep you from being a thief is not that someone would defend themselves from your attempt.

Personally I steal from people as much as I desire to. Which is none at all

However self defense is not in viewed philosophy as a threat of violence. Violence that we are talking about here is the itiation of violence for which governments alone have taken the unethical position they have the lawful and exclusive right to said it itiation of violence in service 'of the greater good'

Finally you in no way need to git rid of property ownership to get rid of taxation. Especially income based taxation like we are talking about here. Income based taxation being the most unethical of all forms of taxation.
Add in Dunning-Kruger and you get one hell of a shitshow.
I also seem to recall PHP doing this in the form of PHPSESSID in the query string.

It's a bad idea no matter who's doing it though. It enables accidental session-jacking (unless you turn on annoying countermeasures like invalidating sessions when IPs change and so forth), reduces cacheability, and a whole bunch of other things that come with leaking a secret in the URL. I don't think JWTs are a panacea but they beat the heck out of 2003-era session management.

> How do you revoke tokens on lost laptops?

Have the user change their password, and store datetime_password_last_changed on the user model. Then just treat any tokens issued before that time as expired. There are some use cases where storing tokens might be necessary, but for most startups this is probably not a good idea.

To be honest - Apple actually got some pretty damn good performance out of the PowerPC chips and architecture - my Quad-Core G5 tower with 16GB RAM is still used for finalization of my music projects, due to its insanely smooth performance - and tbh coming from a very experienced user of modern Macs it still kicks ass.

> It's very likely that they didn't really know that Vesuvio was a volcano at all...

Perhaps some people compared Vesuvio to Etna (which erupts much more often) and realized it was a volcano?
Yes, for me this is flopping in soccer and basketball. There's a pro for the athlete (chance of foul called) while the con is little to none. Hence both sports have floppers. The regulatory system must adapt to those who take advantage of the spirit of the policy but adhere to the letter of it. Obviously this is a constant issue, but what won't work is trying to "shame" the bad actors through hearings, media, etc. Policy must constantly evolve, esp. in areas like taxation.

Also for those who are better versed with law, is it possible that companies can legally defend actions like this by arguing they are maximizing shareholder legally and thus, they are obligated to do so?
> This adds a point of centralization, which defeats the entire purpose of cryptocurrency.

I don't think you get to declare what "the entire purpose of cryptocurrency" is! People tend to get confused about what "trustlessness" actually means. It certainly doesn't mean that every single aspect of every transaction involving cryptocurrency must not require any party to place any trust in another party. If you're using cryptocurrency to buy bread you still need to trust that the baker hasn't poisoned your bread, and that need for trust must be addressed by some mechanism unrelated to cryptocurrency (like the baker's reputation, or laws against poisoning people). That doesn't illustrate some absurdity in the idea of cryptocurrency or "defeat the entire purpose of cryptocurrency."

That's not right. There is a specific foreign earned income exclusion: https://www.irs.gov/individuals/international-taxpayers/fore...

It's around $100k (increasing with inflation) for individuals.

> However, you may qualify to exclude your foreign earnings from income up to an amount that is adjusted annually for inflation ($103,900 for 2018, $105,900 for 2019, $107,600 for 2020, and $108,700 for 2021).
Is that a problem though? Does your threat model include clients that correctly send logout requests when they're supposed to but don't delete cookies when they're told?
Depending on the site, that might be fine. For parts of the site that deal with sevitive data… just verify the token with the auth server every request line you would old school.

It really depends on the site and how much you care about having a window between logout and all the tokens becoming invalid. Most sites probably have large parts where it is a acceptable to have a few minute interval.
