Yeah the other issue is if you increase income, your imputed income for child support is now effectively permanently higher. Child support imputed incomes ratchet up with raises, generally not back down. You will never be able to 'relax' back at a slower/less lucrative job because now the judge says pay the higher rate or go to jail.

Another way to view it: say you get a pay boost 90k -> 190k. The custodial parent will request the imputed income to be recalculated. You now owe an extra 20k PER YEAR. That's your new imputed income, even if you don't get a job like this again and it only lasts a year. Eventually you lose that job and can't find one like it again -- fast forward 10 years. You've paid an extra $200k, just to make an extra 50 or 60k net in one year. You lost $200k by working a higher paid job for a year.

One year of raise followed by 17 years of a slightly more relaxed job at your original income means you LOSE money. In this example, falling from 190k back to your 90k income means child support went from 1/3 of your net check to 2/3 of your net check. A brutal risk to take if you don't think you'll be making the high wage for life.

It's ridiculous that Microsoft's response wasn't to just nuke trackers from space with some kind of adware blocker integration in Edge. This is the equivalent of a mugger saying he'll only honour your "do no mug" sign if the sign defaults to "mug me please" and has to be explicitly changed.
Well, he is at war with the world. Do you think China will be happy if nuclear war starts and the world will end for same random grain fields in Ukraine? Putin is not simple, but in this case it looks he just reached for the low hanging fruit that was Ukraine. I mean, his army was grouping for months near border and nobody did anything. What more clear signal did he need?

I don't quite get the study plan, as it sounds more like cramming. Nothing wrong with cramming per se except that what you learn does not stick, and you will have to repeat the process when you need to switch jobs again.

I think a better system is to regularly study fundamentals and always deep dive in your work. Case in point, I've never had problems passing interviews by FAANG or other hot startups, I always got title bump when switching jobs, and I never spent extra time prepping for interviews. Say you're an ML engineer who builds an image recognition pipeline using Spark and PyTorch. Do not just be content with assembling a number of open-source solutions to make your pipeline work. Instead, study the internals of Spark, understand the math and algorithms behind your image recognition models, read survey papers to understand the landscape of data processing and image recognition or further, machine learning, and implement a few models and try to optimize them. Similarly, if you work on database systems, do not just stop at being familiar with MySQL or Postgres or whatever. Instead, understand how transactions work, what consistency means, how principles of distributed systems play out. Study Jim Gray, Gottfried Vossen, Maurice Herlihy, Leslie Lamport, the database red book and its references... You get the idea.

As for leetcoding, replace it with study of algorithm designs. Study Jon Kleinberg's book or Knuth's writings (no, you don't have to read through his books, but his writings are incredibly insightful even for mortals like us), for instance. Instead of working out hundreds of back-tracing problems, study backtracking's general forms.

People tend to underestimate the effect of regular study for years. You'll find that in a few years your knowledge will converge and you will be able to spend less time to incrementally improve your skills, and you will have so many concepts to connect to greatly benefit your projects.

Huh? Maybe it's related to the FAQ: "Why is there a limit to the number of applications in each track?"

Ok... so presumably they were not closed two hours ago when this hit HN?

Because some people live paycheck to paycheck and can't afford to look for a new job, and even if they can do so for a few weeks it comes with extreme stress, because if you can't find a job then you may need to deal with some form of homelessness.

Our team develops an Electron-based app which is released on Windows, MacOS and Linux. I only own a macbook, but so far I haven't had a single compatibility issue — everything that works on MacOS also works everywhere else.

Has anyone had luck with this route? I went through the process and was unsatisfied.
CFPB sends the complaint and then the company self reports that they didn't do anything wrong and then the complainer has a chance to say they disagree.
I don't think they intend to resolve specific issues. They seem more like a trendspotter than solutionist.
It's a circuitous path to the solution of get a lawyer. With CFPB, you are basically doing volunteer work for the government, which is fine and possibly noble, but not what you probably set out to accomplish.
> the audible huffing and puffing while they were probably wrestling with the controls

The 777 is fly-by-wire.

Therefore most likely the huffing and puffing is from all the rapid movements around the cockpit to reach various knobs, dials and circuit-breakers.

Also I should point out, you should pay ZERO attention to the radio coverage in these instances. If you train to be a pilot, from day one a certain order is knocked into your thick skull: AVIATE - NAVIGATE - COMMUNICATE ..... ALWAYS IN THAT ORDER (i.e. saftey and navigation of the aircraft comes before you even think about coherent communications to the outside world).

Don't get me wrong, I'm not dismissing the potential nature of the incident, far from it. But given the swiftness of the recovery, its obvious they were proceeding through the appropriate steps as per training, so I think we can safely avoid all the un-necessary adjectives and hype beyond acknowledging the well-trained crew doing the job they trained and regularly refresh for.

N.B. I'm 100% giving the crew the benefit of the doubt here. For those who like an "alternative", I have heard little birdies in various places that given the background alarm audio, there MIGHT be an alternative story of the crew having setup the approach wrong (i.e human rather than aircraft error). But its a long-shot guess from what I hear and therefore we should really just wait for the official report to be published.
you really don't know how other crypto people think?

every interaction in the wildly popular EVM space has 0x prefixed to it, for all EOAs, for all transaction IDs, for all smart contracts, and for several large projects and several thought leaders in the space

the consensus model does not require the 0x prefix to resolve a transaction destination but pretty much nobody knows that (some regional wallets omit the 0x), and it is almost purely cosmetic
Yes, all software licenses impose restrictions.

The GPL's restrictions ensure that the end user maintains their freedom, at the expense of developer freedom to choose their own, more restrictive (to the end user but also potentially to other developers) license, if they want to incorporate the Free Software into their own software.

That is a tradeoff I'm cool with. I'm always a fan of ensuring end user freedom, including the right to repair.

I will also note that the GPL is explicitly not an end-user license. You can do whatever you want with it yourself. It only covers distribution.

Hehe, given how verbose Java can get, I’d increase the word wrap limit x3 in that case.

Quantum physics is a separate (but related) branch from particle physics so using the slash "quantum/particle" is mixing up two different things - which one do you really want?

Theoretical Concepts in Physics by Malcolm Longair is a mix of history and physics, by explaining how physicists came to discover their theories. I actually don't think it says much about modern particle physics though. It includes quantum mechanics.

Introduction to Elementary Particles by David Griffiths if you just want particle physics. Griffiths also has an intro book on quantum mechanics.

I had a co-worker lose his life to spatial disorientation during a night-training flight in Italy:
"Maj. Lucas "Gaza" Gruenther, a pilot assigned 31st Fighter Wing, went missing during a nighttime training mission over the Adriatic Sea Jan. 28. In the days that followed, Italian and U.S. authorities collaborated as part of in an immense search effort to locate Gruenther. The search ended Jan. 31 when Gruenther's body was recovered by an Italian vessel... Gruenther completed more than 2,640 hours of flying time to include 400 combat hours."
Unless base pay was way higher and can compensate on sinking equity value, I think Meta seems like a gamble.
Show HN: Relevanto (beta) – I curate the relevant web
Hi! This is Alex Dragusin and lately I've been working on Relevanto where I look for and save the best of the web. I literally search through search engines for the best of everything (yes, lots of site:reddit.com in there and so on), check it out if it's legit (I search for reputational data like reviews etc) save it, categorize it and list it on Relevanto. I have a knack for curation and organization so I am putting my skills to, hopefully good use. This, at this point is intended for a global audience, stuff that make sense for most people.

I got fed up with Google and other search engines results being filled with too many results that are not really useful and I hope Relevanto will eventually be a gateway for most of the stuffs I do on the web, leaving the search engines for more specific stuffs - to use them as an option rather than primary way.

Love speed and privacy. I am big on privacy thus no tracking and the usual nonsense. The site is static and managed by a backend I created through which I manage the sites in the database. The static exporter is written in PHP. Nothing too fancy.

I am constantly adding, adjusting and since it's beta, many more categories are coming up.

In the works:

*apart from the highlighter, a similar function that will filter all the sites by [keyword], that is, show only what contain [keyword], hide everything else.
*dedicated pages, for example Music, on this page there will be all about music from links to websites for consumption to tools of creation to news and so on.

Monetization:

Will monetize in 2 ways, one by having a Marketplace page (the only place for ads, no ads on other parts of the site as long as I am at the helm), where one can advertise their service/product/company for a consistent fee (aka high barrier of entry) while abiding by strict guidelines (Money is good but not at the expense of my visitors!) and second by patronages taken through Patreon or other provider. That's it, the goal is not endless growth at the expense of the users but to provide value, real value! This is the future of the web, the relevant web!

Thank you and hope to have you along for the ride.
TEIC was a quasi government operation, not a corporation as we know them today.
Altruism might be believable if:

1. He lived in the same neighborhood as his renters, and not 1000s of miles away in the UK

2. He didn’t kick them out after a few years by flipping it.

3. It was a slow, long-term acquisition of rentals for income rather than flipping profit.

Sorry; the facts indicate a scheme. I don’t begrudge him personally; there is always some government program that makes this chicanery profitable at the expense of the working class, and somebody else would have done it.
More like a 40% by that logic. It seems like there's inconsistency around which numbers are counted using decimal digits and which ones are counted using bits. This one is 250 decimal digits, or 829 bits.
OK, having transcribed and read the whole talk, I fail to see what misconceptions I have. Mearsheimer is mostly correct in that NATO expansion and Western misunderstanding of the Russian psyche precipitated the conflict in Ukraine, but this didn't change Putin's ambitions, which were always the same.

Even Clinton is perplexed at Russian reactions: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2022/04/bill-clint...

Mearsheimer is absolutely wrong in suggesting that Russia is not interested in absorbing Ukraine and the other satellite states. But then again he's framing it in some sort of Afghanistan-like invasion and ensuing quagmire, which of course Putin would never (knowingly) do.

Here's a nice quote from 23:41: "In fact if you really want to wreck Russia, what you should do is encourage it to try and conquer Ukraine. Putin again is much too smart to do that."
Your explanation seems purely speculative; do you have any reason to believe that it's actually true?

I'm from a generation when gopher was still in wide use. I remember those Flash animations from the 00s. I remember being optimistic in my youth about the internet and how it would change the world. Lots of thought leaders were writing about that. The way we live might have changed, but the world view from which we operate from did not. It should have been a red flag for me that the early commercialization of the Internet characterized it as a "land grab".

I've come to the conclusion for myself that I don't like the internet as it is now. The advertising is annoying, but more importantly for me I don't like the idea of being defined by my user behavior, and getting sucked into a machine feedback loop with no real Purpose ... simply something that endlessly extracts value for no other reason than to extract value. So I find myself:

1. Repeatedly using the least amount of cookies every time I read it. When I come across papers posted here from _Nature_, I opt out of cookies. That means I do have to reselect those every time.

2. As a habit, I just do it out of all of the sites that offer this. I think part of this is that I have to pick and choose what I spend time reading

3. Yes, and there are workarounds for all of those. I also use adblock, but they are kinda like the mob and will let advertisers pay them to bypass the adblock. Sites that don't show me the content because they detect an adblock makes me think if I really want to read what is on there; if I do, I don't mind making a conscious choice to support the publication. If I am annoyed by it, I might try the Firefox Reader option. Or I don't read it.

4. It's not an advantage so much as aligning with how I have come to approach life. I've come to realize that much of our civilization is built upon Value Extraction. Whether that is for my limited time here on Earth, my focus and attention, very few businesses are built to give something back, or at least are value-adding (not "value added") -- something that contributes to and expands the capabilities and resources of the whole ecosystem beyond profitability.

I use "gtar" on the command-line in that case; it either fails because gnu-tar is missing, or it works as expected.

"-H pax" is also an important item to specify on the side creating the tar file, as pax support is much older than pax as a default, and the pre-pax default (gnu or USTAR?) has a short enough maximum path length as to have caused me problems in the past.

RFC: Bounded Staleness Reads
I'm being super generous when I say he's splitting hairs.

Take this part:

"These factors suggest that the 2008 proposal to expand NATO to include Georgia and Ukraine is just one among many developments that have made the current crisis so acute. It is arguable, indeed likely, that the NATO expansion proposal made matters worse, as may some other Western actions, but to assert that “the West is principally responsible for the Ukrainian crisis” goes too far."

Or this gem:

"It’s questionable whether Mr Putin was right to say NATO posed a threat to Russia’s sphere of influence. From the start in 2008 there were different interpretations of what was meant by “will become members”. "

Putin made it very very clear where he stood, and yet you still see armchair psychoanalysis being done. It's all pretty shoddy. There is certainly nothing of substance here that even begins to address Mearsheimer's iron-clad arguments.

The scenario allowed in your reference is not the same. The original scenario was a rental/income property declare principle (for some short period of time) for the purpose of shielding capital gains whereas the exemption you reference is a principle residence allowed to be used for rental/income. Note that you cannot declare another property as principle while you're renting out your homebase. I expect it is meant for cases where you might take a job transfer for a period of time.

The taxman never leaves money on the table.
Does Affirm actually report to the credit bureaus? It's my understanding that they do not, but perhaps I am misinformed.
