Excellent advice! I read and understood the article as using this the first time. I feel my criticism stands, though again I understand that others may feel differently.
Saas_sam is exactly right. Why is it so unbearable to deal with this truth.
The functional people who become homeless usually don't stay homeless because they are able to take advantage of services. There are some new methods being tried by providing temporary tent cities for these people with showers and such. A strict no drugs or alcohol policy in the tent city. When people speak of "The homeless problem" it's usually in regards to the chronically homeless who are addicted and/or mentally ill who won't stay in these regulated tent cities.

> true. i think that many of these L1 theoretical usecases should move to L2s of existing blockchain(s).

This is basically the current trend. DApps being developed on existing blockchains instead of new blockchains being invented for each use case.

The only reason L2 blockchains are even so big (e.g. Matic) is because of Ethereum's insane gas fees and the never ending delays in rolling out Eth2. Otherwise there'd be no real need to even have L2 blockchains, you can just run your smart contract directly on the L1 blockchain if it's efficient enough to scale properly.
I had it, everything went fine. Very unpleasant though. If I were doing that again, I'd take 1 or 2 months between eyes in case something go wrong. All in all, I'm very happy with the surgery.

It seems like kind of an evil move for law enforcement to put a target on his back like that. But I assume all of the bad guys knew which guy was pushing the phones, so he was probably going to be a target no matter what.
Well I work day to day as a doctor and I know for myself what the job entails, and I don't know where to start with a comment like this.

I've just finished a clinic this morning. Interestingly there was a relevant case to this discussion. I have someone being treated for an incurable lymphoma with a tablet chemotherapy. Has been on it for nearly 5 years. She had a scan recently which has shown some pulmonary fibrosis. She has some new respiratory symptoms. The question is, has this drug caused her lung fibrosis? Is it even fibrosis at all - it can look similar to cardiac failure, and she has that too. There are around 5 CT scans over the course of several years, I had to bring them up and cross-reference it to the times of various treatments (NB I'm not a radiologist) to assess whether I thought the progression of it fitted with the drug. To complicate matters I know this lady has especially bad lymphoma which relapsed quickly after her first treatment, so if I stop her current treatment, she would probably progress and die of the disease, though I'm unsure what timeframe that would be (it depends on the individual disease). So I'm reluctant to stop it. I might take her back to our MDT where I can discuss it with our radiologist, who will pore over the scans and try to see whether we can blame the drug, and whether it could be explained moreso by the heart failure.

This was a single 10min follow up patient in a busy clinic, and I only write this out to give a glimpse of the thought processes that go through decision making for one follow up patient in a clinic of 30. This isn't rote learning or rule-based treatment. It is very much patient-centred and very specific for this individual. It requires discussion with the patient - what they are happy to tolerate, dealing with the unknowns of what would happen if we continued it or stopped.

Personally I would love for machine learning to be part of what I use to help guide decisions, there are particular situations where I know it would have helped. But it is irritating to read your comment and to not only be accused of being obstructive for AI adoption, but also to be misrepresented as some kind of robot that looks up every disease in a medical textbook in my head and blindly follows some protocol for deciding what to do.

Most people can be trained to drive fairly quickly, how about we figure out AI driving first before attempting to simulate a job that has taken me 15 years of training to get to a position where I can take these decisions in clinic?

>> The fundamental model behind progressive taxation is that the pain of paying taxes should be roughly the same regardless of income level.

Good point. I'll think more on this.

One thing though which makes this non-obvious: We are in an equibrium system where demand and supply rebalancing change things. Economic utility and purchasing power of $1000 is the same whether someone earns $10K or $10MM per month. For somplicity sake, if all are made to pay $30,000 per year in income taxes, those who earn less would stop working, however, the demand-supply rebalance would either raise their income levels or the industry would have a higher drive for innovating and inventing to automate those jobs. In a similar fashion, with lesser taxes for the super-riches, more people would incline towards doing startups, etc. When that rebalancing is considered, the point of equalizing pain does not remain obvious to me anymore, as of now. :-)

>> Taxes are not proportional to income. We have marginal tax rates, not all-income tax rates.

Yes, I had made an approximation when writing "proportional". Marginal tax rates makes the income taxes grow faster than proportional with the income, whereas I am arguing for a constant income tax. :-)
I feel like rendering stuff like this is almost a violation of net neutrality. Large companies can spend lots of money on server-side compute and subsidize an experience that can't be replicated sustainably by smaller companies.
You've hit on it, grades matter right up until you're out of school. For most people, they matter for getting a first job (because there usually isn't much else to serve as a filter). After that, nobody will ever ask for or look at them again.
If you use Prometheus and have everything that you want to alert on instrumented with Prometheus then of course that makes sense.

But if you want to alert on other data sources, and especially to see and manage all alerts in one place, then this is what Grafana Alerting now enables.

Example I encountered a while ago: Alert on billing throughput within a third party (not instrumented with Prometheus) billing system that has a RDBMS backend. The alert can be written in SQL and with the changes in Grafana 8 could be acted upon and routed just like the Prometheus alerts were.
This is because the subtiters and dubbers usually work independently and face different constraints.

The key is to find content that was originally produced in the language you want to learn so that the subtitles will match.
A better way to structure the article would be:

- explain how much tax evasion took place

- explain how the tax evasion happens

- who is doing it

- what to do next.

Only then, compare the situation to the average person. Everyone knows how much they pay in taxes themselves.

This video does a better job at explaining the tax loophole:

> long long long time ago Fossil destroyed code for Zed Shaw

1) No, it didn't. Please read the part of the thread after Zed's initial panic attack.

2) To the best of our[1] knowledge, fossil itself has never caused a single byte of data loss. When fossil checks in new data, it reads that data back (in the same SQL transaction the data was written in) to ensure than it can read what it wrote with 100% fidelity, so it's nearly impossible to get corrupted data into fossil without going into the db and massaging it by hand. People have lost data by storing their only copy of a repository on failing/failed storage or on a network drive, but no software can protect against hardware failure and nobody in their right mind tries to maintain an active sqlite db over a network drive (plenty of people do it, despite the repeated warnings of anyone who knows anything about sqlite, and they have only themselves to blame when it goes pear shaped). Fossil makes syncing to/from a remote copy absolutely trivial, so any failure to regularly sync copies to a backup is end-user error.

[1] = the fossil developers.
I don’t know why you are being downvoted. If homeless people simply decided to learn Python and read PG essays for inspiration rather than being a drain on society, we could completely eliminate the homeless problem. Hopefully one day the troglodytes making up the rest of the world will catch up to our enlightened viewpoint.
I think one can be generous here and assume the treatment centers mentioned in their comment would have running water, and access to e.g. food.

Feedback and ideas for other good awk lessons to include are welcome.

> I don't understand why the average person ever pays short-term capital gains tax.

Because the risk of holding the stock is more than the difference in short vs long term capital gains.

If the stock is worth $1000 in gains, I know I can sell it and lock in the gains today and pay my normal income rate. If I have to hold it for another 6 months, there is a huge risk that it drops more than the 5-10% difference in the tax rate for the average person.

He said "feudal-like". One of the key aspects of feudal society is an aristocratic elite that controls almost all the property and rents it out to the rest of the population.

Take a look at the current housing market craze where wealthy/institutional buyers are taking advantage of low interest rates to buy properties with all-cash, inspection-waived offers above asking price, in some cases whole neighborhoods at a time, so as to rent them out. This is a privilege unavailable even to the upper middle class, and could very well turn into a sort of neo-feudalism if left unchecked.

It's also not unprecedented for companies to own entire towns and pay employees in company "scrip" that was only redeemable at company stores, a practice which lasted well into the 1950s and (after some googling) apparently was tried by the Mexican subsidiary of Walmart as recently as 2008.

Looking at the broader state of the economy, wages have been stagnant for decades; property, healthcare & childcare (at least in the US) and education are more expensive than ever. With the exception of food, everything that matters in life is more unattainable for the average person, and everything that doesn't matter is super-cheap, with no signs of those trends reversing. How does that not turn into a form of neo-feudalism if left unchecked?

The last time we "checked" it (in the US) it took decades of labor protests/riots that often turned bloody and the effects of a couple of world wars. Historically plagues (that actually kill a lot of people indiscriminately) and wars are just about the only re-distributive methods that have proven successful in the long term. Unless we want a repeat of some real nasty history, we need a historically unprecedented way to redistribute wealth.

I agree. I stopped using Reddit when I saw that even if I avoided the new design, its culture of discussion was being formed by 95% of people being on the new site. The new interface has only exacerbated problems with memes replacing substantial discussion, and an Eternal September-like feeling because the sidebar (with its possible FAQ and links) is hidden, leading to newbies asking the same questions over and over.
Counterpoint: perhaps putting a name and numbers to these tax loopholes will make them less abstract for people.

For example, knowing that the richest man in the world avoided paying $x billion in taxes using a loophole could insight change better than a theoretical story about how somebody could use these loopholes.

That being said, I'm still not sure if leaks like this are a good idea or bad idea. Just playing devil's advocate a bit.
If you read to the end, it looks like the expected underlying reason is now fixed, but it hasn't been confirmed yet whether it resolved the problem. If someone knows how to reproduce, they could try it out and comment there.
I think at this level, tax protection isn't 'hiring a decent accountant' or 'donate $10,000 to charity', but instead is 'moving your base of operations off-shore' and things like that. Things you can do with a ten-million dollar income, but not a half-million.
I see. Some of these, like ipfs, are more general purpose systems (basically communication protocols) than I was thinking of.
From what I understand, low doses LSD or mushrooms sometimes (I think like 20% of the time) creates a long term (six months to permanent) change in mood for severely depressed people. I am also under the impression that there is no extra benefit from repeating doses more than once a year.

I think that walks in nature work significantly more often, but the effect is short term lasting days instead of months or years. Also, walking once or more a week is helpful long term.
I've only ever seen this when something was dubbed, not when the original content language matches the subtitle language. Do you have any examples?
100% agree.

I understand induced demand can exist but this is a second order effect that is clearly far less impactful than the first order effect of supply and demand.
> Your dollars saved are worth much less than they were a few years ago and now your taxes are high

Which makes me wonder why the general consensus about deflation is that it's not a good thing.
I understand the point but I question if reality works that way. No one looks at a tax bill and says "what have I got left after it?" They just look at the bottom line. And it doesn't matter if you've got a $100m in the bank or $900m - $40m is a lot of money.

Avoidance is a more or less a fixed cost. It's the price of tax attorneys and Congressman. To the degree you go over that fixed cost it's going to be harder and harder to get the amount. The biggest surprise to me is always just how much the rich pay not how little.
Learning English by watching Friends was so common, AFAIK all over the world, that it achieved cliché status, 10-20 years ago. May not be the case anymore.
When you own stocks, you don't pay taxes every time the value of your portfolio changes. You only pay capital gains when you sell those stocks.

Your example isn't really that much different. You would only really need to pay taxes on that diamond when you sell it, in which case you would just use the proceeds of the sale to cover that.
> avoiding the obvious argument that capital gains are eventually taxed - the rich are not escaping that.

I used to think this too until my wife inherited some stocks from her grandmother. Turns out the strike price is reset when you inherit and you dodge all of the capital gains tax.

This turned out to be a major win for us because her grandmother had acquired the stocks when she worked for AT&T back in the Ma Bell days and had not paid attention to them for 50 years. The paperwork was a complete mess and we had zero idea what the strike price would have been on stock she got as part of her normal income some time in the 50s and had been split up and recombined so many times in the mean time.

Ah, so like you have some process which generates your YAML/HCL, which is your "IR/assembly" layer, not meant for regular human consumption/editing, which is fed to Terraform. But it's readable/auditable, VCS-trackable, and diff-able.

I do that a lot as well and in fact I'm kinda leaning towards taking that approach from the get-go. Right now I start with the YAML, but then something makes inevitably leads me to templating it using make + jinja/gomplate, which eventually leads me to wanting to use python scripts, and then invoke (python package, it's like gulp or make).

It's not code, like business logic code, but it's too verbose and repetitive for human manual editing.
Ah, you're correct. I was indeed conflating the two.
Perhaps they are losing this desire because it doesn't provide the well being it promises? Because personal freedom has become a meme abused by ultra rich to disable any effort to fix systemic problems in the US?
I don't have an opinion on this either way but why is that "the right thing to do" in your mind? It seems to me like making that available on non-Apple products would give very little benefit to them or their users while introducing lots of uncertainties that may actually make the experience worse for most users. The reason most Apple features work the way they do is because of the complete vertical integration of hardware and software. Introducing unknown hardware seems like a bad idea when consistency is your whole schtick.

That makes sense to me. Chasing consumers is a waste of time and money. The arrest itself might cause more societal damage than the drugs if it ruins people's lives or is used to target minorities.
> it should be illegal to bulldoze structure where somebody lives!

If you buy an empty lot as an investment, and then the city grows and you want to sell that lot so that a developer can build a high-rise, you want to stop them? I mean unless you want to ban ownership of land then you are in a tricky resource. What if someone builds a lean-to in your hedge?

If anything, maybe we need to zone areas for improvised housing. Would make it easier to police for violence and to provide access to community resources.
In other words, police and customs forces never bother to measure their “success” (seizures) in percent.

If they did, they’d get defunded. We’d get more off the streets by just buying it.
I think that's good and correct. The inheritor hasn't had any capital gain. Because the deceased never sold, they didn't either.
The point of decriminalizing personal amounts of drugs is to change police behavior because they are doing more harm than good in this area.

You want to arrest the people who are dealing drugs or causing other crimes, not permanently ruining the lives of people who are doing no harm to society.
I'm aware one can rename the resources via mv. But when multiple self-standing modules with hundreds/thousands of resources in each have to be merged into an array of modules, it's a big work.

I'm not even sure that the new resource address can be figured out, and the list of resources can be search/replaced in order to produce a single renaming (mv'ing) script.

Even if this was possible, it would likely require:

- either each module to be moved monolithically, which is risky (e.g. data sources may break, since there's no referential integrity) and requires a fully designed and implemented destination module (carrying two different representations of the resources contained in each module).

- or, and I don't know if this works in real world, creating an structured but empty destination module, and slowly moving resources from the leaves down to the root. this is a lot of work, and probably requires a very large amount of references to be carried cross-modules.

Big refactorings are a difficult in any language/framework, but in TF are particularly so, because referencing between resources is rigid, so it's hard to move small parts and their references. Doing this is Chef is much simpler, since resource name and address matches and it's under control of the developer (but Chef has a different approach, of course).
I could maybe deal with the atrocious new UI if it actually worked. Every time I open a Reddit link on my phone browser it prompts me to open it in the app in order to view most of a thread.

"the crowd had put tires over the alleged thief and set him on fire".

A single person brave enough to think against crowds could have STOPped this atrocity from happening.

Reminds me of how Mahatma Gandhi was attacked in South Africa by a group of predominantly white-males, was literally being beaten to death, when just one white-female STOPped this atrocity from happening (source: Gandhi the Man - https://www.amazon.com/Gandhi-Man-Changed-Himself-Change/dp/...).

Most of us are too afraid to stop atrocities (Ex: Recently Muslims getting killed in Delhi while Modi was adulating Trump). But a few who do could may help save humanity.
