Crypto is taxed as income. Everything is taxed as income. You are only taxed on gains if you have a cost basis and are trading the tokens, but otherwise if you are compensated via tokens you owe income tax on that whether or not you convert it to fiat.
Linux (In)Security: A Review
I have a degree in CS and minored in BioEngineering. I’ve also kept up with the field and regularly drop in on classes.

Finally, this isn’t some conspiracy idea. Here’s from Cornell

https://allianceforscience.cornell.edu/blog/2020/12/yes-some...

They’re using genetic material to have your body create proteins. Some people like to argue it’s not “gene therapy” because it doesn’t make lasting gene edits. But (1) the definition is disputed and (2) that’s also not clear because we haven’t studied if it changes gene expression. We also don’t know how long the mRNA lasts, so it can keep generating the cytotoxic spike proteins for an unknown length of time.

You’re the only arrogant one here.
When you go to Greenpoint, Brooklyn's Polish neighborhood, there are supermarkets with multiple shelves dedicated to mustard with the slight regional and stylistic variation that you describe. I assume that the narrow selection was based on attempting to recreate Beard's list rather than all of the mustards available to a New Yorker.
As a serial entrepreneur, and therefore employer of many people, I'm pretty horrified to read this. My immediate thought is that it's a toxic attitude, but totally understandable in what is probably the rule rather than the exception, i.e. a 'regular' company. And that's sad.

If you are really feeling as you do, I think it's time to reassess your employment and potentially your life.

For instance, I think many startups are different to this, and not only because they are small. More meaning: the genuine opportunity to enact change, I think is the biggest differentiator, alongside better incentives and stock options that in some cases lead to life-changing financial outcomes. There is always risk with this, and it's a higher risk than a larger company, but that's just the mechanics of life, economics, and society.

I work incredibly long hours, so i'm always 'busy', but for the most part I love what I do, like a passion project. This is because I'm transfixed by cause and effect. It's an amazing thing that I don't think our brains are wired to appreciate by default. It takes discovering this and then confirming it, illustrating that just one person can have disproportionate impact in the world. It seems the vast majority of us limit ourselves or feel a sense of imposter syndrome in our own skin.

The more one realises this and manages to instrument some change, the more positive reinforcement one gets, until one can look back at varying chunks of time in one's life to see the impact that was made. This gives you strong sense of meaning to your life, motivating you to fill your time with high impact activities that have the capacity to genuinely change people's lives, alongside your own. This could includes making time for your family and so on: because in many cases this is an important high impact activity.

After realising this and doing it, the feeling you get with a positive outcome, even if you're still in the middle of doing whatever it is, is better than any drug i've taken.

Steve Jobs did an interview in which he more eloquently expresses this ethos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYfNvmF0Bqw

I think a lot of entrepreneurs feel this, but it isn't just limited to starting companies. There are so many ways each of us can make an impact.
Will these Senate hearings be theater only, like previous ones with large corporations and the government? Where is the action and what laws are improving these situations?
You’re right. My bad. Thanks!

Scaling automated data workflows to the cloud
I've benchmarked every 8-bit language I could get my hands on. Interpreted BASIC is typically 1/50th the speed of assembly. Forths are typically 1/5th to 1/10th the speed of assembly, depending on the function, which means Forth is 5 to 10 times faster than BASIC, depending on the function. Python is also about 1/50th the speed of C.
PWAs are the future.

Along with other benefits comes the fact that you can "install" apps on devices bypassing the app stores (which means not paying commission fees), which I guess is the primarily reason why Apples is so reluctant of giving it a proper support in Safari.
Ultimately what this shows is that two factor authentication with either TOTP (aka Google Authenticator) or SMS is not ideal. It makes phishing harder for the attacker, but it does not prevent it.

Unfortunately he fails to mention that there is a way to do 2fa that does prevent phishing: Hardware tokens with the webauthn protocol.
On this page I have heard so far: Monads are...

* just a way of defining a list

* very much not that

* dealing with side effects using functions

Apparently the article is spot on. The concept may be understood, but may not be communicated.

It's quite interesting seeing the phenomenon play out just as described.
In the US, the Duet is frequently on sale for around $200 to $250. Has a great screen, all metal construction, and a passable keyboard. I'm rather fond of mine. End up using it more than the iPad.

That is some golden level trolling and speaks significantly to the quality of the process which enabled these updates.
Logically, a double edged sword. What an "opposing view" is is relative. The people who put this in place are logically opening the door to people being intolerant to their views, which is likely not the intended effect.

But, of course, this isn't a matter of logic and the CoC is obviously not written to account for everyone's views. It is written to protect the views of the writers of the CoC.

This isn't necessarily a bad thing. No one hires declared Nazis at universities (Maoists and other communist ilk, yes), and neutrality is not a thing. It's a question of whether those writing the CoC are correct and coherent. Are they feigning universal tolerance while imposing a regime of intolerance?
Ghost of Tsushima is the only PS4 game I've ever platinumed (gotten all the achievements for), despite it having a combat system that becomes extremely repetitive and trivially easy halfway into the game. That, combined with its trite samurai story/themes, should've been enough to make me bounce.

But the nearly non-existent load times really is GoT's killer feature, because it allows you to goof around and experiment, die, and get right back into the action without feeling frustrated.

What's even more amazing to me is that it's not just "instant revives", but actual "fast travel". I'm not a huge fan of open world games either, but GoT makes it easy by letting you fast travel across the continent in seconds. Conceptually, instant loading of localized action sequences seems doable. But instantly loading of entirely different environments on demand, from an old fashioned HDD, feels like black magic.
Secondly, had the original rate structure been left in place, the Post would have met that burden with ease.

It has proven hard to do that and offer near giveaway services to big publishing and others contracting to cover gaps in service.
There is 'grainy', but I'm not sure if that means whole seeds.
Two points:
1. In 2014 Netflix made similar deals with AT&T and Verizon.
2. It is not extortion by the ISP, "pay up or else". But Netflix was simply building up its own CDN-capabilities. They ditched Akamai and Limelight and for that they needed their own server endpoints into the networks.

Awesome progress!

Really Looking forward to when they get to GPU improvements :)
>Case in point, when we get a tired of the office grind we can publish a manifesto that slams tons of people we’ve worked with in the past (with no fear of consequences from those burned bridges), move to a resort wherever we want, and still expect to either make great pay with benefits while fully remote, or realistically start our own business with a great chance of success (and can easily raise funding to defray the risk if we want to).

It's not that I disagree in principle with what you're saying, but I think you're describing the top 10% range of programmers.

Edit: and herein lies the danger in dismissing the complaints of entire swaths of people with concepts lile "privilege". It's just a socially acceptable form of prejudice that never applies to all people from the group.
It's an unprecedented global scale for a Ponzi scheme as measured in dollars, that's for sure.
Maybe rate limiting?
The stream had no audio and my brainchip implant couldn't feel me the salty smell of the sea and the blast of wind on my face.

The art is people believing they own more than that.
I work on a collaborative text editing system (https://www.notion.so) and read a lot about CRDTs, thank you for your work in this area, particularly https://josephg.com/blog/crdts-go-brrr/

I agree with your assessments here - CRDT is the way forward for most applications; no user wants to fiddle with a merge UI or picking versions like with iCloud. I think RxDB’s position here is from their CouchDB lineage.

> The biggest roadblock to their use is that they’re poorly understood. Well, that and implementation maturity.

I certainly have more understanding to do. My biggest open question is how to design my centralized server side storage system for CRDT data. To service writes from old clients I need to retain a total history of a document, but I don’t want to force new clients to download the entire history nor do I want these big histories in my cache, so I end up wanting a hot/cold system; and building that kind of thing and dealing with the edge cases seems like more than 100 lines of code.

It seems like the Yjs authors also recognize that CRDT storage on the server is an area to address, there was some work on a custom database in 2018, although my thinking is more about how to retrofit text CRDTs into my existing very conservative production cloud software stack than about writing to block storage.
If you're in a mixed crowd that cares how you say "you guys" you should probably rethink whether you want to associate with these people.
> Supervisory managers brandishing Agile + endless meetings

Yes, that is the line that resonated with me as well. Twenty-five years now as a "corporate programmer" and I have watched the job go from cowboy-coder to "i"-dotter-"t" crosser.

There is way too much process now and it's not fun. Perhaps it's a sign of the industry maturing, the stakes are higher. Perhaps it's a sign that management no longer trust their devs. Perhaps one follows the other.

Regardless, I am soon to be exiting corporate and the new way is not something I will miss.
Yeah totally. My credit limit on my Chase Freedom card is $90M, and this one time I bought something for $90M when I thought it was $90, and I was totally unable to reverse it.
I left Amazon a couple of weeks ago after nearly a decade. And the answer to "why" is pretty straightforward.

1- I couldn't get that SDE3 promo. If my clone had interviewed, he'd have been given an sde3 offer easily. But being on the inside requires a long checklist of requirements that I could never quite hit all of. Two other companies offered me the equivalent role immediately. With a nice pay bump.

2- Amazon won't commit to remote. It's all "between you and your manager" and "with your VPs approval", which is to say: subjet to change any time the person in that role does. Want to change teams? Best make sure that other manager and his VP will support you first. So can I really move four hours away from the office? Not really. My new employment contract has "remote" in it.

3- a growing sense that this isn't the right company for me. Too many controversies that I can't really see "our" side of. The leadership principles that I used to teach to new hires sound more and more hollow.

And when I looked at all that, and realized how good the job market is, it became a question of why would I stay?
In America that is true which is one of the reasons US public service sucks. Places like France public servants are well paid, desirable and prestigious jobs.

That is assuming that facebook usage is globally homogenous.

Social climates, sex and age play a huge factor. Young insecure girls that are bombarded with how they should look, and what their friends are doing without them will not be affected as the boomer who only goes onto facebook marketplace to sell, talk with family, or the kind that posts trump memes.

> It's clear that different societies have different calibrations though, and the OP describing the lockdowns as "insanity" does nothing to capture the nuance of the situation.

Given the numbers, along with what we now know about the virus and vaccines, I believe the aggressiveness and longevity of Australia's approach is insane. And there are many Australians who are publicly voicing that opinion too.
I’ve been watching a YouTube channel called Parkrose Permaculture by a woman in Portland. She doesn’t even have to water in the summer, which in this Mediterranean climate blows my mind.
Everyone wants to only have as much money on hand as they need, and yet the money supply is at record numbers. Who is holding cash? How can there be 20T dollars depreciating every day?

The Fed with its policies that drop the Velocity of money naturally leads to asset price inflation. Even worse, as there are now more money being put into buybacks than there are into IPO's, the stock market is a deflationary asset class. Just because there is only a few places to risk your money and not devalue it, does not mean that those places aren't scams.
So, massive social change and massive infrastructure projects.
It is at least plausible, that you could run an AC current over your arms and over your chest.
This can cause a stimulus to your nervous system if the current is high enough to overcome the action potential.

A tingling sensation, muscle spasm and aching would be the cause for low levels of current and prolonged exposition.

But since you found the culprit, you would be easily be able to mitigate your exposure. Either by wearing latex or rubber gloves or proper grounding of your device, which should not shock you btw.

Above the action potential you muscles will contract and your nerves will give stimuli, which can cause tension and anxiety.

If you feel the shock sometimes you are definitely above action potential.

There is another threshold above the action potential, which will cause irreversible damage, heart failure or death. A residual current device is usually installed with your circuit breakers to prevent residual current above this threshold.
Would be great to see a UK version of this.
Forth is always faster than interpreted BASIC. The speed of compiled BASIC depends on the compiler. Some compilers did very little and didn't increase the speed much because they tried to remain compatible with the ROM BASIC in the system. Compiled BASICs which went their own way were as fast as Forth, occasionally faster.
Ehh, technically any transfer to another where full consideration is not received in return (in either money or money's worth) is a gift.

And taxes on gifts are presumptively payable by the donor, not the recipient.

Disclaimer: not tax advice, YMMV etc.
Code seems to be the law, hence why they're resorting to begging and blackmailing
While Bitcoin certainly has scalability issues, I think the point they are trying to make is that is there any other decentralized system that has been able to reach the scale of Bitcoin.
They have all of their users information - in compliance with KYC.. so no.
I believe most mustard powder is roughly the same. The difference is in how much acid(usually vinegar) you mix in to slow the reaction which creates the spiciest compounds. Pure water usually gives you a very hot mustard with a short lifetime(i.e. 'Chinese mustard').

Because your trading thing A for thing B. Suppose you could trade stock for a Yacht without income taxes applying. That’s the kind of loophole everyone buying a yacht would use, especially if you could use a near cash equivalent like gold instead of barter.

The difference between stock and stock options might not seem like enough to matter, but it’s simply the same generic rule applying.
And everyone who still wants to make money with mining it would just switch to Ethereum Classic or something.
Upvote. People gotta read.
I'm curious about your concerns about a Nest/Ring doorbell. Since it would presumably face a public space, if there was a privacy concern, it would seem easier for a third party to set up their own camera for surveillance. If I was worried about being watched, I would think the best strategy would be to set up vulnerable cameras on my own network, monitor them for access, and hope that someone would try to use them instead of installing their own.
You make your 10 year old's friends make your 10 year old feel bad / FOMO that they are not playing your game, until they beg their parents to help them install it on their device, or they just do it themselves if they have access.
Agreed the data sucks (and is going to because the reporting is important to those reporting it); and efforts to collect better data are important and should be pursued. Estimation is a vital tool and will be even when there's better data.

I'm even willing to say I suspect these folks are right about the bias in police killings. I also suspect it has more to do with perceptions of economic status than skin color.

However, stretching statistics to cover opinions like this does their cause no favors, and cheapens their integrity whilst damaging their credibility.
It's both, as it's a feedback cycle. This industry, like many others, rewards narcissism and loudmouths above all else. It does so in the large (e.g. Fowler or Uncle Bob worship; "ex-FAANG" cache) and in the small (the self-promoting engineer who touts his work even if it's not all that great gets promoted over the "soft-power" engineer managing tough projects lowkey). In this environment the symptom feeds the cause, because nobody stops to question whether the symptom is even a symptom. The root cause, ignorance, is entrenched and made deeper, which feeds the symptom. And so on.
I wish scrum had some support for decision making, where you'd attempt to evaluate suggested solutions based on the actual goals of the team/company, have healthy moderated debates, and in the end (by voting or manager) make a decision which is then documented, with a note on when it can be revisited the earliest.

Scrum just pretends that there are no decisions to be made, or if there is, that they are obviously simple and that everyone spontaneously just get along. In reality there are a lot of pretty damn important decisions to be made in developing and evolving software, and people have widely different ideas, and smart people are usually very stubborn as well.

I had a guy insist that a build script for a React app should absolutely be written in Ant. And nothing else. I argued with him that it's highly unusual, and that shell script or Makefile would be a better choice, pleaded with the rest of the team etc. It was massively exhausting for me and the whole team, this went on almost a whole week, and when I finally got my way on this issue, he just rage quit the team and transferred to another.

I just wish there was a manager who would be "the bad guy" and make decisions like this like the old fashioned way, it's not without benefits.

And similar incidents happen to me all the time, whenever I use SQL to solve something, use the command line, or when I simplify some code, I always get attacked by (mostly) juniors.

I just don't understand how to contribute as a senior when you have no decision power and no impact, and every decision is made in an undefined way (in reality by exhausting arguing).
Personally, I'd be interested enough to listen to the whole AI-generated output no matter what the quality. I guess that means I'm much more interested in honestly assessing the quality of the output. (Hell, not even critiquing as much as just listening to it at all.)

There were some big names in the musical world working on this. The fact that apparently none of them pushed to get output from the ML algo for extant Beethoven pieces is mildly disturbing.

Luckily, classical music is largely ineffectual-- I mean, there's no pollution or dead passengers as a by-product of its corruption.

So if anyone in adtech is reading this-- switch to a career in music today and sleep well, knowing that the exploitation of your glaring myopia by snake-oil salesman won't cause you to unwittingly contribute to destroying democracy.
>I've developed a fragile and basic rule which I try to follow: Don't be an asshole.

Give yourself some credit. There's a lot of precedence for this rule. One of the original versions of it goes something like:

"So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you..."
Roblox is a social network, a technical tool those persons have already familiarised themselves with and a game.

Meaning, you have to overcome the network effects of social, the lock-in effects of a popular programming environments in addition to all the usual problems with trying to make a successful game. All of those challenges are hard to overcome on their own, overcoming all three at once isn't something anyone should bet on.

And worst of all, there is no need for multiple products in this space. You only need one game maker game, making more doesn't add more value. This is why the other things matters, it would be easer to replace World of Warcraft or Fortnite or Unity etc, since there are fewer entrenching effects.
I think you're misunderstanding my stance here, I'm not arguing that NFTs are always better than other trusted third parties. I don't know enough about their details to make a claim like that.

In the terms of what you're saying, I'm arguing that the space of scenarios in which people can't come to an agreement is different for NFTs vs. legal systems, because NFTs provide some self-service mechanisms for proving ownership and legitimacy. I'm sure those come with tradeoffs, as you've mentioned. I'm not in a position to weigh those tradeoffs yet, nor claim that one is always better than the other. I think it's too early for that.

More concretely, courts, NFTs, et al are tools for reaching agreements. There's no reason to dogmatically cling to "on-chain" if it's not helping reach an agreement, and there's no inherent reason things can't be mixed between on-chain and off-chain, just as agreements can be made in court vs. out-of-court.
Types are a kind of constraints on what kind of logical constructs in one case, and what kinds of computational constructs in the other, are allowable. Logic and computation are related, but they are not the same. (This difference is also evident in how people think about monads in programming vs. how they are defined and used in category theory.)
