Undoubtedly hilarious. It looks like somebody was playing with the publishing interface and pushed a joke out by accident.
That is a terrible argument. "Go sh*t in a chemical toiled" is not a reasonable alternative, the cost alone is ludicrous. Just have the decency and maturity to admit when you are wrong instead of arguing that you should "go dig a well" in the middle of the city. This is why we can't have reasonable conversations anymore.

Why is it not fair to force them? I don't think it's any more or less fair than forcing people to pay income tax.
Feel free to get in touch if you want to try out our tool. The support for pinning versions in run layers is just being released but happy to send you a breakdown of how that works.
Thats exactly the point
I can't think of a way to scam it, as long as they only allow this method of payment for taxes assessed on the asset itself, rather than as a substitute method of payment for other taxes owed.

It would be an interesting idea to explore and could potentially be a massive boon to risky startups by allowing them to hand out equity more freely as incentives without worrying about the accompanying tax burden.
I think the understanding of wealth as a huge number doesn't make a lot of sense. Basically they have enough money to buy whatever they want (which seems fair enough given their contributions) , and if/when they do they will be taxed on it. If not spent, it's just a number going up, and it doesn't take anything away from anyone else.

Even the dynastic power argument is not so strong. Bezos power comes from running a hugely important company, not money. As public companies, his children won't inherit Amazon and its power, the people who worked hard alongside him will. There's plenty of multimillionaires with no power. Money can't buy that level of power.

The companies themselves should not be allowed to dodge taxes. But the focus on their personal wealth is driven by envy IMO.
> The purpose of a wealth tax is (mostly) not to raise revenue, it is to provide a downward pressure on the wealth of the wealthiest individuals.

Sorry, what? Taxes should always be about raising money for various projects that benefit the country. If we can't see eye-to-eye on that I don't think we'll find common ground here. I'm not looking to punish rich people for being too rich. I'm looking to fund public projects like healthcare, infrastructure, and education.
There are number of techniques that can fit that. State based styling can be achieved with simple class name toggles or CSS animation + the `animationend` event. If you don’t like toggling classes with JS there are number of selectors (including the attribute selector) which you can use instead.

For making code easier to understand you can set a CSS custom property instead of specific style values, and the CSS will be really straight forward.

> Yes, it does work, according to various accounts I've seen, although 40 hours for a few months might not quite be enough (the usual figure is around 18 months of full-time immersion, and more is obviously better)

Could you provide a reference to these studies or accounts?

The original claim was a second language can be acquire by hundreds of hours of passive "experiencing". Your claim of 18 months full time is more like 6,000 hours if by full-time you mean all-day. This is more than an order of magnitude more than the original claim and 2 to 5 times more than then numbers I've seen in studies on how many hours it takes to achieve C1 level in a second language using regular teaching/learning techniques. There is significant variance depending on the the relationship between the learner's first language and the L2.

So even if it worked (and I'm dubious - learning anything requires some effort/active practice) spending 7,000 hours of passive "experiencing" would be a hugely inefficient way to learn a language.

@throwaway894345 You can, but that means you have to introspect the generated code to determine terraform resource ids etc. A really bad developer experience on large stacks.
You don't have to recompress the whole corpus to add a single document to it. All the compression algorithms mentioned here work in a streaming fashion. You could "just" save the internal state of the algorithm after compressing the training data, and then reuse that state for each classification task.
Politicians are just business people who haven't learned how to provide value in a free market. They still want money and power, but without providing things that people are willing to pay for. It is for this reason, I will never trust a politician to be benevolent when they want to increase taxes to prevent people from making "too much money." It's all an elaborate game, based on greed and envy, promising fairness, but actually stealing more from your pockets. Beware.

I just don't like the stink that someone made about it, and don't think it's that big a deal. Even had they quietly said "sure" to removing it, that would have been one thing, but to pander to the sensitive crowd irks me.

All that stuff you said may be true in the strictest sense, but I still think one has to train themselves to get mad about that kind of thing. It's unnatural to instantly get infuriated and see hate in a bottle top, is all.

Bitcoin deserves to be a first-tier target for reducing carbon emissions. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t target other energy consumption too.
One solution- if someone is taking out personal loans that function like income, let’s tax it like income. If someone really wants to live on 80k a year, that’s fine. But if they’re reporting 80k income but spending 10M, maybe they should be paying their fair share on that.

Edit- this has the benefit of completely avoiding the issue of unrealized gains and sticks to the issue of income...

You're probably aware of this, but those things already exist.

Personally, I prefer to use things that make more sense, even if I read dozens of articles and blogs explaining them.
Estate taxes make a lot more sense. Heirs don’t need to get free billions of dollars for doing nothing and I have no problems with taxing dead people.
It depends a lot on the context if that context is React. CSS in JS in retrospect looks like a shim for react developers who couldnt rewrite their code to single-file components like in Vue and later Svelte. You dont have to be a genius to know how to name and structure dom elements, though being good at it lets you reuse css and reduce overall app size better than any bundler ever will - but its just easier to install Tailwind.

Depends on how that capability is setup, I imagine. "We have remotely operated mines at a 5nm radius and HMGs for close-in anti-boat defence" would be enough to deter anyone without anti-ship missiles, but still more than enough to kill a modern warship that comes too close. (Modern warships are generally not stupid enough to sail into hostile mines, however)

I've got no idea how you'd be able to maintain a perimeter of mines in the open ocean, though.
I think a Rust Podcast with the dynamics of Go Time could be hard to beat.

I don’t know if you ever listened to LUG Radio when that was a thing, that show was magnetic for me and it was like Go Time in that regard - the presenters made it just as much as the topic being interesting made it.

Congrats on the release. For some reason when I heard of Astro, I thought it was a dynamic server-side rendering framework, not a static site builder. But I'm sure someone else will take on SSR with islands if they haven't already.

Also:

> Astro is and always will be free. It is an open source project released under the MIT license.

> We care deeply about building a more sustainable future for open source software. At the same time, we need to support Astro's development long-term. This requires money (donations alone aren't enough.)

Why make it harder for yourselves by choosing such a permissive license? Developers shouldn't be ashamed to not just ask for, but demand, compensation, for the software itself, by choosing a more restrictive license. Even if that means you can't call it free software or open source, e.g. a source-available license that requires payment for commercial use. By now we should be ready to accept that free software with no strings attached just isn't sustainable except for projects with big corporate backers.
For people aggrieved by these abuses, I highly suggest the book "The Myth of Ownership" by Prof. Liam Murphy.

tldr: there is no such thing as "before tax income" as all income is only able to be earned because services paid for by taxes are satisfied necessary preconditions. Tying tax owed to services rendered calls for a change in the code to properly get to Elon's fair share.

Edit: Calm down, downvoters - its not a defense of billionaires. Quite the opposite.
Then isn't this an argument that tech companies are not utilities because the things they supply don't "just work" and have no nuance to them?

Electricity and water "just work" because you deliver it, you're done. You have no obligations aside from not failing to deliver it, and not exploiting your monopoly market.

Tech companies are not utilities because they're not just something you buy like a commodity and have a right to not have complex terms of usage?

You want the best of both worlds. Maybe that's not possible.

Not saying it wasn't malicious, likely was, but man, seems like could also be an accident of resetting settings etc

I’m just saying the theory of how to price it is quite different!

The value of a PayPal share is tied to the expected future profit of PayPal, to how much transaction fees will be total, and how much costs will be.

This is a distinct question from the value that a user assigns to the ability to make transactions using PayPal, which, I suppose corresponds to the demand curve of how many transactions/ how much is transacted, given different transaction fee sizes.

Of course, an analogous demand curve should also apply to bitcoin (or what have you).

But this demand curve doesn’t seem enough to give an explanation for what price to expect. (Not just “it doesn’t explain the actual price” but rather, I don’t see how it by itself would explain any price.)
A land tax (a special case of a property tax) is probably among the more avoidance-resistant taxes. There should be numerous others which might exist, particularly in regulated financial industries.
> For me, writing javascript that directly sets css properties based on state variables is a more powerful and clearer approach to managing dynamic styles than manually managing class names.

I'd argue there's a lot more flexibility available if you choose to use classes.

Sure, it's more complicated and involves more work; but to say it's less powerful just isn't true.
If the electric company sends someone out to read your meter every day is that objectionable? Every hour? Every minute? At what resolution is energy usage too invasive? Why?

It certainly seems to have elicited emotions from some readers.

Hey HN! We noticed tons of companies build their own A/B testing platforms from scratch and thought that was kind of crazy so we made Growth Book. Let us know what you think.
I am not sure, software is a bit like a trade, you actually build something only it is virtual and if you build it they will come, nobody can stop you from building things.

Medicine, Law or consulting are services, not actualy creating any actual new value. They build their moat by making the license very hard to obtain and making one's status and prestige the most important thing. You do need licenses to do certain trades but they are usually not that hard to obtain and the prestige of the institute giving them is less important.
What kind of living are you making just posting videos to youtube?

A random example but most stage hypnotists sell their shows via vimeo. If you ever go to a show and want to buy a copy they will send you there. The stuff they post on youtube is mostly highlights or lower quality video. It would take them 100,000 ad views (1,000,000 regular views) to equal one copy sold.

Youtube could get you some views but you need to make your money elsewhere. In the case above the additional revenues are from vimeo. Youtube's role is to hopefully get someone to book the event but you would be better off having good word of mouth than hoping someone sees your videos on youtube and lives in the same area and tries to book you for a corporate gig or faire.

Not necessarily. The IO Monad (Haskell et al.) is impure, a monad is just a functional abstraction that doesn't have anything to do with purity at all.

Okay? some proof please? This is not far off from a baseless character attack which isn't really effective when trying to convince me about your point on you knowing about Netflix's culture.

If you really want a proper answer, the truth is, unfortunately for you I am in management (previously was an engineer) and have always known Netflix to have a stellar performance oriented (and fear driven) culture, their playbook operates like a sports team. Not for everyone, but that's the point and it works for them.

Maybe you should look inward to yourself if you're so vexed with me to call me silly names, that you can't handle the truth or the culture about why some companies like Netflix adopts this.

Peace.
Wow. That's sobering. 1,000 PPM is not far-fetched in a few decades as more poor upgrade to higher carbon lifestyles.

The growth curve so far has not been linear...

Very interesting.
The good news is, now it should go down and for the next 11 months it will be lower than this.

The bad news is, though the peak happens every year around now, the peak has increased linearly every year for the last 25 years and there doesn't appear to be any change in that trend.
Imagine you need to implement an alternative stylesheet for people with increased visual needs (e.g. high contrast).

Torrenting is not a crime. Piracy is a crime and a popular use of BitTorrent, but BitTorrent is also used for distributing non-criminal things like Linux ISOs and some app and game updates and art dumps (I have friends who release via torrent monthly) and datasets (for research and AI) and many other things.
Insinuating that using Bittorrent is inherently tied to criminal activity is like suggesting the same for a person who uses a car.
“I decided to give our whole staff the month of August off–paid”
Not sure why you are downvoted but the point is correct.

Maybe the trading example isn’t great. I think a better example is simply Amazon - famously not making a profit for years.

What they are doing is reinvesting and avoiding tax on the “profit” but it’s hard to distinguish reinvestment from cost and so hard to tax.

Interestingly in my country there is an R&D tax credit for businesses and they are happy now to say that software devs are doing R&D (so like… an investment) to claim that ha ha.

The other angle is using profits to do buy backs instead of paying dividends. In both cases you give back to share holders. With buy backs you both defer and minimise tax for the investors.

At my house, I have a meter that I get a feed from. So I look at the graphs. From the graphs, you can learn about what is happening in the house. You know when someone is showering, left home for work (arrived home), doing laundry, went to bed/got up, used the microwave and so on. Some of that you could determine by watching the house, but that requires constant surveillance. A smart meter provides all this data with no effort and at mass scale. If I can glean that level of information just by glancing at the graphs, I'm sure someone better equipped could determine even finer grain details of what is going on in the house.

Data aggregated per month is very different from data aggregated per hour or per minute. You can infer far more personal information from the latter.

Agreed, the ProPublica article is quite precise and consistent.
> I understood your argument to be "email addresses are important" + "Google provides email addreses" -> "Google should be regulated as a public utility". But like I showed, the same applies to basically every kind of organization providing email addresses.

It's getting a little muddled, but the observation was this: email addresses increasingly serve the same role as physical addresses. We have an entire social and legal framework around the guarantees of physical mail because of how important it is to our ability to transact our daily lives; no corresponding framework exists for email.

> So either you are asking for basically every single organization to be a public utility, or there is some discriminating function you're not stating.

The discriminating function, as I said in the very first response, is the necessary role of a service in identifying ourselves to essential services (read: utilities, financials, government). My belief is that email satisfies this condition. But also, as I said in the first: I don't really know if I commit to the public utility argument; I merely wanted to point out that email serves a role tantamount to the canonical public service (public mail). If that's the case, we ought at the very least to have similar entitlements with our email providers.
