Biden Tax Plan Leans on Banks to Help Find Unreported Income
https://www.wsj.com/articles/biden-tax-plan-leans-on-banks-t...

>The proposal would require banks to report annual account inflows and outflows to the Internal Revenue Service. The requirement would also extend to peer-to-peer payment services such as Venmo but wouldn’t require individuals and businesses to report any additional information to the government, according to people familiar with the plan. Financial institutions already must report interest, dividend and investment income, and the IRS can get bank information during audits.

>Communication and navigation are more difficult because GPS and satellite comms don't work underwater.

That's a really good point, how do you get a signal to a submerged unmanned submarine under all that conductive saltwater? Military submarines use VLF radio waves that can penetrate saltwater fairly deep, but those long wavelengths require enormous aerials and powerful transmitters that are one thing if you're the navy of a nuclear power, quite another if you're a shipping line looking to make a profit.
Yes, those commercial vehicles are on the road but they don't have to be on the road at the same time most people are on the road.

The idea that most Americans live in some sort of farm is actually wrong. Over 80% of Americans live somewhere urban. And yes, trucks, deliveries, etc should not be allowed to drive in urban areas except at night and in the early morning: for traffic and safety.

This should be regulated in Manhattan as well as Des Moines, and even in cities like Houston where the interstate is used for local trips. Driving a truck? Take the detour that skips Houston entirely during the day.
> The reality is that you can build upon your genetic platform, but you are going to get to level where you simply can't compete against someone who is doing everything you are doing, but just have better genetics.

This is the hardest thing for us to admit, culturally, even though there are some glaringly obvious examples, like height.

That said, I think most people can generally train themselves to compete at high levels, just not not elite levels. For example, you see a good variety of people competing on decent college teams in all sorts of sports. It's just at the elite college level and above that you see people's shapes become more uniform.

>Get everyone who wants it the vaccine

Presumably this has already occurred. COVID daily death rates in the US are on track to meet or exceed the previous all time high. It is undeniable at this point that the vaccine effectively eliminates the possibility of death from COVID-19, so there are presumably still many Americans without protective immunity. Government should do everything to get people vaccinated and prevent needless death.

>heard [sic] immunity builds and repeat exposure keeps peoples immune system responsive to it in perpetuity

This does not seem to be an accurate understanding. I know of many people who contracted COVID-19 during the alpha wave, declined vaccination thinking they had protective immunity, and then contracted Delta with severe symptoms a year later.

>this is how we move past this.

How do you figure? If we don't get more people vaccinated, deaths will continue to accelerate. There is also no known protective immunity better than vaccine + infection.

Okay, I don't agree with the "true tax rate" terminology or methodology. Not necessarily in response to you, just that article and for anyone passing by.

Changing values of assets are not income. Taxing net assets would require so much extra liquidity that may not exist, and if people wanted to be compliant with a wealth tax they will have to avoid illiquid assets which would be the most counterproductive fiscal and monetary policy for the economy. You want to get more people to go into illiquid assets to make them liquid, big yikes.

It is disingenuous trying to equate "$1 added to their net worth" to a wage worker adding $1 to their net worth, even if it was purely for explanation purposes. But here it is intentionally made to seem like something else. Its would make more sense to add a sales/excise tax to the buyers that push up the price of assets as they are the only ones moving liquid value around. Like a new uptick rule. Makes more sense to tax appraisers for illiquid assets if they uptick. I don't think any of these make real sense, but makes more sense than taxes people subject to the whims of the market.

We provide automatic import from Vimeo and conversion of the embeds as well with just a javascript snippet. And our pricing ends up being about 10-50% of the cost of what Vimeo is trying to push.

No, it doesn't. Watch the video out to the end, and you'll see what happens as you go through a pole. This isn't a homogeneous system; there's a moment when the gear flips.
I've never known a single person to do this. I hear it mentioned a lot, but no one ever knows anyone directly who's done it. Always "my cousin's ex's brother in law did it once."
CNBC updated the headline after the fact.

The panel initially voted to reject the booster. Afterwards, they held a second vote in which the panel approved the booster for 65+.
I had the same problem as well. The unhook extension works great. I also uninstalled the YouTube app on my mobile and only use the browser.
Adding some other thoughts:

- Trains get to skip traffic, but rental car might be cheaper if you're splitting it with friends.

- Trains do break down or hit delays sometimes, but traffic is always a risk on I95.

- Buses are the cheapest but have random people (dice roll) and traffic.

- Parking a rental car might not be cheap in a city center but can be a wash depending on transit costs. Again, parking cost can be split with friends.

So my decision is usually situational.
Well, the difference between C and Python or Node though is that C is used by the operating system APIs and so it is somewhat tied to each system and their package managers. In contrast, Python/Node exist for the most part at the application layer.
I think that's still possible - there just wasn't data that it is necessary for the under 65 yet.
Except in this analogy apples are finite, and it becomes exponentially harder to grow the next apple.

But hey, at least we're incentivizing the farming industry!
Shelves and the Infinite (2016)
I feel the NYT article on this [1] has more info on the subject; it also includes the following:

> The lawsuit notes that the line in the series saying that Ms. Gaprindashvili had never faced men had been changed from the book it was based on, and quotes this passage from the original novel: “There was Nona Gaprindashvili, not up to the level of this tournament, but a player who had met all these Russian Grandmasters many times before.”

This makes me think that the omission on Netflix's part was very much intentional. I guess they thought nobody would bat an eye? It's not like this is secret info either, you can readily find her matches against men on chessgames.com...

> Because the modern Enterprise-y best-practice is to not allow multiple security contexts to exist within a single monolithic OS process where the OS kernel's own "security manager" can't get to them to enforce its own policy; but rather to cleave apart your process along security-context lines into multiple processes; containerize those to isolate them from each-other; poke precise holes in those containers for well-defined RPC channels to flow; and connect those channels using a service mesh with secure application-layer firewalling.

It always was?
None of that solves the problem of blacklisting certain actions or logging for audit based on the content and/or origin of the data being processed.

Ignoring such things does explain why and how modern enterprise-y solutions are leaking like sieves tho I guess, e.g. solarwinds would likely never have happened if they implemented proper application component level permissions.
Easy to do with edibles, especially with purified THC that can take some time to be noticeable... You had enough with the first bit; but then you ate the rest of the sack waiting for it to come on. and then you're on a ride.

Also people might be chasing their tolerance up gently, without noticing, to the point where they're "crossing the bump" to more blatant physiological effects.

The question of additives and just what's being sold in vapes and edibles is valid too. Flower is not economical to fake, making your own extracts with ethanol is easy and getting less pure extract is better. in my opinion.
> so many people already have cars that I don't imagine that having a huge effect.

Instead of one car per adult, it'll be one car per person once the kids get to primary school age in suburban families.

There are a lot of elderly and disabled people would own cars if they were self-driving and a bit cheaper than they are now. Many people currently using public transport might switch, too. That group might use shared cars, but the others are unlikely to.

The effect might be bigger than one would think.

Edit: the effect on traffic volume and congestion will be bigger. Freed from the burden of driving, commuters will be able to live further away from their jobs. Empty cars will be a significant fraction of vehicles on the road.

Why would the renter be changing the oil?
That switch happened some years ago. I've been unlearning and relearning how to use google for what feels like at least three or four years now.

The main pain-point, though, is that a lot of long-tail searches you could've used to find different results in years past, now seem to funnel you to the same set of results based on your apparent intent. At least, it has felt that way -- I'm not entirely sure how the modern google algorithm works.
I don't code. I would love to learn and may still someday and there's an app I would like to build.

This article doesn't give me any idea where I would start. At all.

I wish it did. I've looked around for quick and dirty ways to try to build the app I want to build. They never seem to do what I want them to do, the "in minutes" part fails to materialize for an outsider without a strong coding background, etc.

I think there are some wonderful tools out there and it's always good to lower the barrier to entry so people with other strengths can do their thing, but I read ideas like this and think of a book I saw written by a professional clothing maker who was decrying the shortcomings of off-the-rack clothes and the punchline was to the effect of "Why would you wear that dreck? Life is so much better when you can easily make custom pants in minutes -- like I can because of my many years in the industry!"

I didn't buy the book. My mom sews beautifully. I know something about making clothes and, no, you aren't going to replace off-the-rack clothes with teaching the whole world how to make custom clothes "in minutes" because that's so much better and easier.
> They want to believe these things.

This isn't exactly new. When I was growing up, there were tabloid newspapers in the supermarkets with wacky headlines like "woman gives birth to two-headed bat", "aliens abduct CEO of GM and replace him with robot clone" or "Elvis is alive and acting as president of the United Nations". They've moved online, but they were always there. Somebody was buying them, even back then - enough to justify the costs of printing them and paying to have them placed in supermarket checkout counters.

What's also not new is the influence of unelected, unaccountable busybodies interjecting themselves wherever and whenever they can to suppress whatever they personally don't happen to like on your behalf (always, always, "for the children" as we see here). Back then it was Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson and Tipper Gore with their "moral majority" - they didn't care much who believed that they needed to wear tinfoil hats to protect their brains from being reprogrammed by government radio waves, but they sure did care about anything that undermined the position of the christian church in daily life, and they were really successful with it. Now all the people who opposed them back then are… doing the same things themselves.
> The US govt isn't going to do anything until ...

I think this attitude is defeatist and absolves us of doing anything. It's a democracy; things happen because citizens act. 'The US government isn't going to do anything' as long as citizens keep saying that to each other.
I keep hoping PCIe host-to-host bridging (via Non-Transparent Bridging) will start to be popular/a thing. Alas right now I believe there's still only a single PCIe controller on any given system that has NTB on it.

You could concievably make a ring of systems, systems acting as a "client" device to their clockwise or anti-clockwise neighbor, but this is pretty low radix. You could make one system have a bunch of "client" hosts plugged into it, make a big hub spoke model, with radical oversubscription, but not sure what that would be good for.

The article discusses something I'd love to spend years toying on: how to share & allocate the pools of resources on the upcoming fabrics:

"If PCI-Express is going to be a fabric interconnect to lash together pools of CPUs, DPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, custom ASICs, storage, and memory, then someone is going to have to provide hypervisors to manage the virtualization layers here. We already have the means to manage virtual CPUs, GPUs, and storage, but no one as yet has created a memory hypervisor that will span local, near, and far memory banks across several racks — or maybe even a row — of machinery."

Also worth nothing that AMD is only really shifting into gear to support NTB in a modern way, as they've just landed their PTDMA driver code, which is how they do NTB: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=AMD-PTDM...

Would be lovely to see AMD show up here. My understanding is NTB doesn't require a lot of extra hardware. It'd be great to see AMD try to innovate & push. But right now AMD does not feel like they're doing much with interconenct technology. They have really good Infinity Fabric, but it's use is much smaller scale, powering their multi-chip packages, powering their inter-socket connections. They seem absent from USB4 & Thunderbolt support, don't seem to be pushing for integrated 25Gbit anywhere, unsure if they have any CCIX or CXL or GenZ stated intents. Doing something like supporting 4x NTB PCIe ports would be a massive massive upset, & capitalize on the huge PCIe AMD started leading with a couple years ago with the launch of EPYC.
If the emotional connection mentioned in the paper is correct, then the actual structure of the piece would dictate its effect, not a simple harmonic content -- although the Fourier Transform is bijective, so if you took into account details in phase I guess you're right.

Yeah, but the retirees depending on the income is just a second-order effect that's also screwed up due to money. Retirees don't depend on money changing hands, they depend on crops getting grown, shelter being refurbished (or built), and defense under the law. The only reason people agree to do all of those actions for the retirees is that money changes hands.

I'm not necessarily saying that I think money is a bug. It might be a feature. But the "market's invisible hand" relies on people being more motivated by their wealth stash than their behavior. If everyone chose to keep doing the same physical actions they're doing today except we stopped swapping money, nothing observable in reality would change; people would die at the same rate, food would be stored at the same rate, etc.

"The economy" is in reality a giant standoff where every member of the standoff would just stop maintaining society unless they get paid for it. The grocer could theoretically choose to continue to man the store 12 hours per day, and then the doctor could theoretically choose to treat the grocer when he gets sick, and the truck driver could theoretically choose to ship the medication from the plant to the hospital, and the floor worker could theoretically choose to...
I make those. And yes, it’s 90% boring in terms of tech. The exciting part is to make something that my users like to use, that fits them like a glove. And polish. Polish is hard and endless, there is always a tension between pragmatism and perfectionism.

Those two parts demand the most seamless and direct expression, and continuous feedback. It’s not quick, it’s deliberate and diligent. That’s what I value and aspire to.
Are you saying your wife's master's program in information systems has zero coding in it? If so, that's amazing. I think I probably wouldn't be able take a "master of information systems" entirely seriously if they couldn't code.

Information systems is something like a synonym for "computers and stuff"; if you're a master of "computers and stuff", you should know how to code.

I mean, imagine a "master of information systems" being embarrassed when they can't understand Python or Javascript written by their nephew or niece in fifth grade elementary school. Yikes!

If the program contains required courses involving coding, then that is covered. She will have to go through that, and then will either see the beauty of it all or not. In any case, you will be there for help or insights/perspectives.

Well, anger is a positive emotion after all. We actually like being angry. For one thing, anger masks any underlying emotions that would make us feel more vulnerable (sadness, desire, loneliness, etc.). And then it comes with a rush of energy, and superiority, and a sense of purpose. That’s why I believe Paul Graham says the most dangerous distraction for a founder are disputes. Because anger trumps any goal you have set for yourself, of you let it. Hence those who have no goals at all are often the angriest.
