I'm not a lawyer (or an accountant) either. I believe the threshold varies by state but I don't know if there's anywhere that it's at a level where "normal" transient travel would expose you. I assume the biggest issue is people like consultants who may travel to a work site during the week for months at a time. (Or, as you say, someone who has a permanent address of some sort in a low/no tax state but actually lives most of the time somewhere else.)

ADDED: It appears that the threshold is essentially non-existent in many states. https://www.concur.com/newsroom/article/what-are-state-tax-i... (I think this is the solution my friend's company is actually using.)
thank you. the addictive hit of having some latest up-to-the-second information is not actually a rational need.
I think a major problem and source of toxicity with twitter is it has become an acceptable and cheap source for journalists to get quotes from celebrities and politicians that Facebook and other social media platforms have not yet gotten the same traction. On the flip side it is an easy way to get a quote out there without having to answer/dodge follow up questions. Trump's power was not his twitter followers, but that anything outrageous he tweeted became front page news.
If that person likes a political person, you have to see every detail. No thx.

Loadable modules aren't part of the C spec. Whatever the meaning of &func in 2 different modules potentially compiled by 2 different compilers is is specified by the ABI.

CFI is a breaking change to the contract the Linux kernel makes with kernel modules, but it doesn't have anything in particular to do with C the language.

would have been more interesting or laudable.

I think it's interesting and laudable that the hardware coped. But yeah, on the face of it this sounds very much like brittle software. For 46 seconds the craft's performance suffered from a single frame being dropped. It sounds like either the calculations were smeared over way too much time, or (more likely) the code made too many assumptions that relied on every piece of the pipeline properly behaving, not only in the moment but also over the entire history of the flight.

I'm speaking from extreme ignorance obviously. But this reminds me of a million code reviews I've done where I've asked developers to make fewer assumptions about the state of the system. Often the response is something like "but how could that ever happen?" And my response is always "i have no idea, but shit happens."

I would love to see a postmortem that discussed the specifics of what went wrong in the software, and whether they can attribute the lack of robustness to system design flaws.

Why should browser makers get to decide which extensions are allowed to spread?

> let you add alternative extension trust-roots, like adding repos to apt? Then a virus could go in...

In an OS with app sandboxing, no a virus can't just "go in" and add extensions. The way to stop malware from compromising the user's data is to stop malware from compromising user data! It's not imposing central control over third-party software development.

The fundamental gap here is in people continuing to think that any app can access all of a user's preferences directory. That's an obsolete and reckless model. In the modern world, every app runs in a sandbox and can affect only its own preferences directory.
This is a list compiled from `sindresorhus/awesome`, no?

I'd considered that as well, and I'm wondering whether it's a time period thing. Post 1980's/90's and after the business book boom, I'd agree that the end is just summary because the short punch book form was really influential in publishing.

Your comment got me thinking. Mid-20th century and prior thinkers weren't edited the same way (hence all the doorstop books), and there was more cultural emphasis on intellectualism and literary flourish, a kind of auteur cult. It's these ones I'm referencing in my comment about skipping their sounding stuff out. Whereas I'd agree with your approach to anyone writing from about 1990 and after, arguably with the invention of "airport reads" and the mass market of people reading stuff on planes.

I'd even speculate we could probably chart the rise and fall of certain genres by trends in transportation. Viewed this way, it may not have been the internet that killed newspapers, it was a mix of downloadable podcasts and wireless plans. Car and office radio is still huge and it may have picked up the local advertising newspapers lost.

The fiction books that do well now are completely immersive, because the people reading them are committing binge level leisure time. The non-fiction books could be power point decks. The middlebrow market is a luxury and signalling good. The successful middle brow celebrity books that tell you what to think are basically blogs. TikTok and Twitter are the smoke breaks of our era, because everyone is always ready for service and to be interrupted.

Maybe the next great art stars will be creating art for self driving cars, where you can engage and not be entirely passive like radio, but just enough to leverage the distracted mental cycles of being driven around. The culture we consume is less about some intrinsic desirable property than an artifact of constraints on our time. Hmm...

Definitely. I don't mind paying taxes (for the most part) because their purpose makes sense in a lot of cases, but I hate doing taxes.

A single W2 salary is so much simpler. Taxes are automatically deducted and I don't have to think about much.

Luckily, I do have a stable residential address that any mail can be sent to, and it is in the same state as my employer, but I am essentially a digital nomad. Able to work anywhere with an internet connection - even from my phone's hotspot if I want. Occasionally I camp out for a week and work in the woods. Or pick up and drive to another town for a while. It's not a bad setup. Feels like I have the best of both worlds.

If the logistics were more complicated I probably wouldn't bother with being as nomadic.
There's nothing illegal here. The goal of privacy is to avoid giving anyone a reason to suspect something. In the case of money laundering specifically, you want to turn money that looks extremely suspicious into money that doesn't look suspicious at all.

There is a zero percent chance that a latino gang banger would call themselves latinx. It's a word invented by Americans for a specific context but it's been rejected by the Royal Spanish Academy, which guides all Spanish curriculums in all Spanish speaking countries. It's also unpronounceable to a monolingual native Spanish speaker anyways. Neither consonant cluster exists in Spanish: "latinks" and "latin-ecks" both need a vowel around the k to sound natural.
It's ok to say latino, it's not a non-inclusive word. Grammatical gender is not tied to gender identity, grammatical gender is just an arbitrary designation to make word endings complement each other and "sound right". German has 3 genders, Spanish has two. You could call them A words and B words, Red words and blue words, and it wouldn't change their usage. Spanish speakers don't actually think books are boys and tables are girls.

>As you read what you like, you end up liking to read. ...When reading becomes second nature, you read for knowledge and insights.

I found the premise of the article pretty odd. I enjoy learning, not necessarily reading. When I begin to learn a new topic, it's almost never that I'd rely on a single book. Most books assume certain prerequisites, and are written specifically to that level. But it is highly unlikely I'll have had the same exposure to every topic the book covers. Some I'll find too obscure and need a more basic explanation, and others I'll find too basic and either skip the section altogether, or find a more generalized review of the material. It is almost never that I read every page of a given book.

Granted, I do not read the types of books the article's author used as examples. I'm more likely to read books on topics like computer vision, or computational astronomy. And I don't restrict myself to reading, I'll use any material available like videos or on-line courses.
The metaphor of the cards is spot on. But the Flow has its own Rhythm, and there are Very Bad times to interrupt and then there are Merely-OK times to interrupt. But what I found after many years of coding for a living is that the drive to reach a checkpoint and push context spills over into private life. I catch myself snarling at my SO if I'm not given a minute or two to finish whatever it is I'm in the middle of. Even when doing everyday things like making food or doing housework. Is this typical ? Is this sort-of OK, or just self-absorbed and conceited ?
Design stuff in modeling software. Printing premade models is basically the same as just buying something on Amazon. You have zero control over how it turns out, and you can't iterate through adjustments. That being said, unless you actually have protects that require physical structures, it's going to be hard finding good uses.

I'm not sure I follow. The relevant part of the thread as I saw it was "too bad Apple does not sell CPUs." Selling the CPUs would mean you wouldn't need to cannibalize anything, and in a discussion about the merits of AMD vs Intel as the part used in a platform like this, comparing the bare CPU seems more relevant.

I just got 250Mbps service from Spectrum with a two year deal for $35 per month then the regular price will be $65. The neighborhood is on the roadmap for a new fiber provider so hopefully I can get a better deal when the special rate expires.

They can make money with cheaper service. I just had a fixed $35 200Mbps plan with Optimum in an area with overpriced competition from Fios. Verizon would send their minimum wage sales drones out to personally plead with me to sign up for $80. The new $50 subsidy is going to ruin cheap internet by setting an inflated price floor. I would gladly take 20 Mbps service for $20 per month but that is never going to happen.

It's also entirely possible that the answer you get is "well, this is how we interpret the updated tax treaty, but nobody has tried it in court so we aren't sure."

Yes, the USA is one of the few countries that do this.

There are exclusions for foreign income tax paid, but I believe there is a cap (US$75,000?) on the amount of tax paid. That is, tax paid to another country can reduce your US liability.

Anyone in this situation needs competent advice. That leaves me out as a source of that advice.

People log in from all over the place because of business travel. I doubt that many companies are aggressively data mining where employees are located.

The second point is more significant. Even with almost 100% remote work it's hard to systematically hide where you are from everyone--especially if you do any business travel or expense reimbursement or are in a materially different timezone or climate.

> Things haven't changed much at the transport layer because largely it just works.

There is a reason this isn't built on top of TCP, because TCP has so many problems the moment you try to do anything non trivial with it.

UDP on the other hand is kind of redundant since you already have IP packages, so you have a tiny package based protocol on top of a different package based protocol. Also you don't get any ordering information in UDP, which is kind of weird since the IP layer has to handle ordering to deal with package fragmentation, which is a fun feature that some hardware sees as a request to reorder your packages. I may have some PTSD from dealing with "smart" switches and a bit of software that did not expect package reordering issues on a tiny in house network.
> I usually explain extension fields as similar to complex numbers with regards to reals.

Its a good analogy and the math is indeed very close to complex vs reals.

If you consider "i" to be the "polynomial variable", then a prime-integer field vs a (prime-integer)^2 extension field is pretty much identical to real vs complex.

Of course, there's a prime^3 extension field, or a prime^4 extension field, and then the analogy kind of stops working.

EDIT: Now that I think of it... I can't really decide if complex-numbers are like a prime^4 field or like a prime^2 field. i^4 == 1 after all.

In a prime^2 field, the variable x^2 == 1. In a prime^200 field, x^200 == 1. Etc. etc.

-------------

Really, the glorious thing about extension fields is that a well selected extension field follows the fundamental theorem of algebra (which is... in simple terms... "All Polynomial equations have an answer that can be represented by your number system". Ex: (x^2 + 1 == 0) not only can be solved by a complex number x = i, but all such possible equations are proven to have an answer).

So you get all the benefits of integers (such as perfectly mapping to 2^8 == 256), with none of the downsides of real (aka: uncountably infinite, rounding errors, etc. etc.). You get precision while still keeping your property of "having answers" to a huge class of important algebraic problems.
“A lot” is certainly a subjective term and thus open to interpretation. One might argue that the entirety of the collection isn’t “a lot” since it only amounts to 34. Others might argue that 17% is “a lot” as it’s that means near enough 1 in 5 projects isn’t mature and that’s a pretty poor signal to noise ratio.

If the repo advertised itself as a curated list of interesting Rust alternatives to standard tools then I probably wouldn’t have commented. But it said “replacements” and that suggests a higher level of maturity and community support.

I am really struggling to understand your point. The reasons for the different rates of attrition, and the outcomes to society matter, yet you say nothing about causes.

It is good if engineers have the choice to drop out of postgrad to get a job in their discipline instead (is that why STEM has high attrition rates?)

It is probably good if STEM has strict standards and the high attrition rate is because marginal students don’t make the grade. Good engineering matters far more to the world than good doctoring does.

It is bad if medical students can get a MD regardless of their competency level?

It would be good if MDs had a low attrition rate because the filtering to get accepted let through only 1.5% of incompetent students (causally seems unlikely, but just hypothesising!). A lot of the filtering for lawyers occurs when they get a job (bimodal distribution of pay).
> I had a brief foray into Twitter, but had to stop. I followed my senator

I very much find the Twitter experience is what you make of it. I did it wrong the first time I tried twitter, and I hated and abandoned it, too.

Second time around, I started with a handful of tech people that post interesting content or work in projects I'm involved or interested in, and organically grew from there. I also follow a couple people that post local (to my small city) traffic/news/etc. And within the last year, I follow some people that post COVID stuff about my region, who produce charts and stuff that are 10x more useful than the official government sources (eg: updated and realistic R calculations, include charts with hospitalizations/deaths, etc).

What is absolutely not useful is anything political (the replies to COVID stuff tend to get political, so I also ignore that), or pretty much anything in "trending".

Also don't be afraid to mute or unfollow people, and click "Not interested in this -> show fewer retweets/likes from this person" -- all things that have made it tolerable and even useful. If disinformation/lies or other similar nonsense starts getting in my feed, I do what I need to get rid of it. This has meant sometimes unfollowing someone I otherwise like (eg, they're replying that disinformation and causing fights) but honestly, it's just not worth it to me.
