"Wokeism" is a pejorative catch-all term for all the negative aspects of trying to be against racism, so it's kind of true by definition, isn't it? Literally no one is defending "wokeism" any more than people are defending "racism", because the terms themselves are intended to convey something negative.

It makes the term kind of useless, wouldn't you think? It's a placeholder term for whatever you don't like.
This is not good advice. If you set things up correctly you should set it up as an s-corp to maximize your tax savings.

If you have an s-corp, you won’t have to pay self employment tax, which is 15% on all of your profit and all of your salary if you just stay an LLC without an s-corp election.

With an s-corp you are advised to pay yourself a reasonable salary as a w2. That salary is the only thing you will need to pay that self employment tax on. That salary should be as low as you can justify. Here is info from the IRS about how to go about calculating that.. https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-news/fs-08-25.pdf

I would imagine you could easily justify $50k-$75k as your salary, but you’d have to put the time in to calculate it.

If you were to do this based on $54k a month, you are saving about $90k a year on your taxes. The less you pay yourself a w2 the more you save.

If you set up like this, which is the way you will save the most on your taxes, then the amount you can contribute to your retirement account, ie solo 401k for you in this situation is approximately 50% of your w2 income because how much you can contribute is tied to your salary. For a $75,000 salary that max you can contribute is $38,250. Sure feel free to put that into your Solo 401k.

But that should be an after thought to saving the 15% self employment tax.

By putting money into a 401k it is not tax free only tax deferred, this means you will pay taxes on it eventually. If you think you may make more in retirement than you are now it makes this deal way less sweet. I know I’m planing on making more then.

Also, hiring a spouse is again a terrible idea here, because you are going to then pay 15% self employment tax between the two of you. 7.5% each.

Sure if you are an LLC and didn’t take your s-corp election then this makes sense. But if you did, hiring your spouse will be an extra 15% tax on his/her salary, since all of your profits won’t have that 15% tax on them.

And for what reason.. so you can put it into a tax deferred account you will need to pay taxes on eventually.

The very first thing you do when you start to make real profit is to take an s-corp election. There isn’t even an argument to this.

Telling the poster to do anything beyond taking a s-corp election first is doing him a huge disservice and costing him around $90k a year.

If your contract is "all your work are belong to us", then it can have some funny legal consequences with each company claiming ownership of the entirety of your work.

More important are trade secret issues. These are treated very seriously and can result in criminal penalties. So be super careful here - though different industries certainly help.

Not sure about the carrier consequences. Don't put overlapping jobs in your resume and make sure all your employers are satisfied. Quit some of your jobs if you're overwhelmed.
I don't think comparing two datapoint (sweden vs austria) is enough to reach a conclusion.

Also.... why compare with austria? Why not with neighboring Finland? It's well known that temperature is a huge factor on spreading of covid.
In my opinion you have nothing to apologize for. My writing tone can come off as abrasive but that's not intentional, so I do apologize for that. There's tons of stuff I don't fully understand either, especially in the bio fields. Computers are complex, but biological systems are more complex by multiple orders of magnitude. Many of these things we don't yet have a full understanding of and the research methods to elucidate biochemical mechanisms are also complex.

It's also possible that I may be wrong about surface viability. I started out in the pandemic assuming the virus is viable on surfaces but after research has come out I have essentially stopped washing my hands altogether (outside of the normal times I did before).

This is difficult for everyone as we all can have varying levels of understanding and different perspectives. Yet we all have to deal with this in the best ways that we can figure out.
I usually drink Cappuccino, even if the milk is not very good for me. 3-5 cups per day.

I use DeLonghi espresso machine[1], worth every penny and very little effort to make great coffee.

I get beans from local brand Etno[2]. They are always very freshly roasted, and they are surprisingly good.

That would make sense in a world with unlimited time and no other demands on one's attention. But nobody has time to take in everything that is put out there. We all have to use filters, and for me, one baseline filter is "mostly ignore anybody who is making strong claims that run counter to what nearly everybody else is saying, unless they are presenting some highly persuasive evidence".
Yeah - I am sure the Wachowskis are on record talking about the green cast of the scenes that occur in the matrix. It's meant to recall the idea of old green-phosphor monochrome monitors; and I also distinctly remember some discussion about this from the director of photography, maybe in a DVD commentary or something.

The matrix is green-tinted and the real-world is blue-tinted.

I question your assertion that you are "leftist" when you describe progressive thought in dismissive, inflammatory, right-wing terms.

I can't vouch for the most recent episodes, as I haven't listened to them yet, and I don't mind those interview ones much. Otherwise most episodes had some insights and ideas, I found noteworthy, which resonated with me - and they are always only a few minutes long, even less when you, like me, increase playback speed to keep focus. Very ADHD friendly. Maybe just don't binge them all at once, but have the individual eps echo a bit.

To start somewhere (going by title here), maybe try those episodes about gotchas and pitfalls (lol, they kind of all are about that, regardless of title; the author knows, we tried all the "hacks" already...), about energy management, "Waiting for Inspiration", or the fresh start ones. I think I also liked the "Five Frameworks to Build Powerful Goals", but that one doesn't really demonstrate what I like about the podcast.

Hope there is something for you too <3

Edit on my original post: Jeez. Sorry for grammar and typos. I thing... I was still very tired. Awful.
The daily mail has done a lot of medical research:

https://kill-or-cure.herokuapp.com/
> Synthesizing what you read in in introduction sections can be a good way to get a sense for the current consensus, and they are usually pretty accessible if the paper is any good.

This is basically how I've formed my own opinions, so I hope that its close to whatever consensus is (if there even is one yet, I assume real stable consensus takes time).

But I temper my certainty a bit and limit myself to saying things like "there is evidence that [xyz]", because I know that's a true statement that I can back up. I can't speak much to the quality of the evidence, but I can be aware that it exists and I can also try to find supporting/countering evidence, or a lack thereof. I don't know that I can get all the way to judging what the consensus is though.

Once I get to secondary sources, I feel like I'm on much shakier ground. There are just too many forces at play: social/political pressures, monetary incentives (bloggers have to give their base what they want if they want to thrive), the difficulty of understanding something novel, and a rapidly changing world on top of it all.

So when I see people pulling out the "most experts" card (consensus in other words), I can't help but discount it heavily. They could be friends with the actual only researchers publishing on a topic, or they could have gotten it from their uncle on Facebook, or anywhere in between.
Thanks for the comment! You're right, I was oversimplifying saying that default MRI would be fully sampled. My main point still stands, you can't just chuck ML onto current protocols to do a direct comparison with ML and more conventional reconstruction methods to give clinicians access to both and expect an improvement (beyond potentially denoising) because the conventional scans are already very good at what they do. Where ML can help is in cases where we can't produce conventional scans (e.g. with very short scan times or high temporal resolution).
I'm transgender and this business of putting pronouns everywhere bothers me too. If I'm in a group that usually doesn't do pronouns but does when I'm in the room it's like they're pointing a finger at me saying "you're different and we're afraid of offending you, so we're going to act differently around you".

No. I just want to be a human being. If you wonder about my pronouns, ask and I'll happily answer. If you get them wrong I'll happily correct you.

If you're an ass to me I'll report you to HR, but putting my pronouns at the bottom of my email isn't going to make you any less of an ass.
if you choose to go this route, jellyfin is a great privacy-respecting media server. plex is great, but requiring an email or third party account on a self-hosted app is just weird.
The article opens with an opinion that drawing awareness to non-binary pronouns is too much of an "editorial priority." That the author hides behind "people want to know" is a distinction without a difference.

The "strongest plausible interpretation" is that the author believes LGBT issues should be talked about less. But the author is not simply talking about it less; they are using their platform to advocate that it be talked about less.

That is, quite literally in this instance, free speech being used to complain about trans people, or at the very least their visibility in society. With 92 upvotes as of the time of writing, it's arguable that this opinion is being "celebrated" by many members of this community. And many HN comments are obviously hyperbolic for effect; this one is no different.

Assuming good faith goes both ways.
I think a lot of people are still writing this kind of content, but you have to look elsewhere for it: Reddit, Facebook, Twitter; to name the obvious ones. It’s also harder to find, but you can find all kinds of personal content written in comments and posts on these sites.
My guess would be noise. A basketball hoop across the street is an amenity, but one right outside the window might be an annoyance.
> But everyone over 30 I know uses Facebook, heavily

That's an interesting perspective, I was pretty convinced that facebook was almost dead since all of my friends (in France) have almost completely stopper using it. Well most of us are still casually browsing it every once in a while, but it's far less often than it used to be, and worse: we don't have interactions together on that platform. The last remaining usage was events, but since covid basically killed most large-group events for a while, even this usage died off.

I wonder if it's more of a group difference, or maybe it depends from country to country. Where do you live?
You're asking readers to imagine that LA is representative of other areas, but reject the idea that LA is comparable to WV? I think you need to pick one to make a coherent argument.
Maybe there's a hardware engineer out there with a decade of experience shipping and reviewing TVs publishing his thoughts to his blog. He's heard about the latest and greatest and he's offering his expectations based on the promotional material, his friends at the company, history from the brand - whatever. Maybe, if he's built a reputation of good reviews he's got a big audience. Big audience? TV brands give him an early review model.

Modern Google actually makes the content problem worse. When our notional TV blogger is starting out in our world he publishes two or three essays, nobody reads them, he stops putting in do much effort, posts occasionally, dwindles off. In a world with a perfect search engine his early essays get some attention to encourage him to post more, a feedback loop starts, and before you know it he's a full time TV reviewer.

Sadly the only way of fixing it is making search results unattractive for cracking. Ranking of a page in search results is a metric, and every metric is a hackable metric. Only way they won't be hacked is if there's no incentive to.

Sure a search engine that specialises on narrow area of knowledge without much money in it, can be very relevant and bullshit-free.

But there's no way to make it work for the general web search. People hack things. If they didn't we'd have Communism built by now (yes the "good" - classless, stateless one).

>> "Paper credentials don’t mean much"

> other employers here disagree on that particular point

I didn't mean it in a sense that paper credentials don't matter, period. I assumed it was obvious in the context what I actually meant, but that's my mistake, so let me clarify. "Paper credentials don't mean much" when you are trying to really assess skills of someone. Which is evident by my example of many people with impressive resumes not being able to code their way out of a wet paperbag.

> disingenuous -> "stated with an intention to be deceptive"

I admit, I used the closest word that was somewhat expressing the point I was trying to make. I still cannot think of a better word. So if someone can provide a word that is more fitting for "a situation when someone makes an assertive statement about something, without trying to consider the other side of the equation at all, which leads to a conclusion that simply affirms what the person is saying", it would be more than welcome.
Well, the normal thing to do is to read art magazines, follow artists you like on twitter, then respond to open calls. The response can vary depending on what sort of show/residency is being advertised - if it's just an informal, local thing, you probably just have to convince somebody you have a good piece for their space. If it's a big institution, you probably have to send them a fair bit of explanatory matter.

My preference is just to do shows in local spaces. Then you don't have to deal with any nonsense - you just write an email to the guys that run the space, then if they like it, good, you go do the show, if not, also fine.

Grandfather comment absolutely nails it about the whole thing of making vs being but I think there's a flipside: if you spend your whole life making contemporary art without doing shows, you're never going to get any kind of feedback other than people saying 'is that art'? and thinking they're being clever. You need to meet people who are also doing contemporary art, otherwise it gets pretty depressing pretty fast.

What I can't seem to figure out (and the knee-jerk censorship of any discussion on the topic isn't helping...) is whether or not this is unusual, as vaccines go. Although I never thought much about it before, it seems like no vaccine could possibly be 100% safe, so, say the smallpox vaccine must produce occasional side effects. How does this vaccine compare with all the other ones? Smallpox will almost definitely kill you, so a small chance of a side effect is worth it. What is the real cost/benefit of getting this particular vaccine?
Would one tobacco company disappearing reduce cancer rates? No, but it's a start.

This seems to be an instance of an XY Problem:

>The XY problem is a communication problem encountered in help desk and similar situations in which the person asking for help obscures the real issue, X, because instead of asking directly about issue X, they ask how to solve a secondary issue, Y, which they believe will allow them to resolve issue X on their own. However, resolving issue Y often does not resolve issue X, or is a poor way to resolve it, and the obscuring of the real issue and the introduction of the potentially strange secondary issue can lead to the person trying to help having unnecessary difficulties in communication and/or offering poor solutions.

Do you want to:

- Make art (express yourself, indulge in activities to create things that capture, or free, a part of yourself, etc.)

- Understand the system: production, promotion, prizes, dynamics, trends, notoriety, the business of art, communication, graph of influences, taxonomies and ontologies, history, etc.

- Have what you consider to be the life of people you consider "artists" (going to parties, being liked, being admired)

- (all of the above)

Facebook (Meta) the company is a lot more than Facebook the social media network.
