I swear the broad adoption of 401k programs is one of the biggest crimes against the working class.

So much risk for the owner of the money and tons of upside for all the supply chain servicing them.
On the contrary, regulatory capture and similar issues are a necessary consequence of capitalist accumulation.
Given the recent trend of incompetence leading into borderline scams I don’t blame you.
I think that's a different guy because his twitter profile (from the website) says he lives in California.

Is the IRS under any obligation to provide e-filing systems access to companies like Intuit that knowingly flout the law?

If not, they should revoke it.
I presume this means that the puzzle doesn't actually have a solution. I wonder what kind of information was in the packs.
Dude, you have so much time on your hand to write little essays without saying anything that you probably can google it yourself (hint it's not the first hit like the last link you posted you really have to scroll this time :P). I am over kicking your shitty arguments in trash because the only thing you do is repeat yourself and throw racism and sexism acquisitions around.

It's not feasible for the majority ( ;) ) of El Salvadorians to use crypto as a cash replacement because there is simply not enough digital infrastructure for it. Maybe your boy Elon will drop some Starlinks. lmao.

How is your minio setup working for you? I'd heard some bad reviews early on and stayed away from it. Do you run it in any high-availability mode? Have you tested backups/restores? Would like to hear anything you'd like to share about it.

Morphine has more effects than just killing pain, however. It also provides a euphoric feeling. It's more interesting if a drug that was until now only known for removing physical pain can also provide relief for social pain.
If you are a US citizen and resident of some EU country you will need to file taxes for both the US and your country of residence.
In most EU country’s you could easily function as a self employed contractor to a US company. But being a full time employee seems challenging as the company would need pay various taxes for your employment - others will know more than me on this.

The economy is rigged. Intuit made $5.7 billion in revenue (2021) and the fine is only $141m.

I agree with you. Miscarriage of justice. Like a bank robber only having to return the money as the "fine" and zero punishment after.
Yeah I think for now they were just trying to get any comparable results due to a near complete lack of details on GPT-3. They seemed to have a hard deadline for the task.
Sadly, I'm not aware of any specific "we will continue to manufacture parts for X years" guarantees from Seiko.

Still, though - keep in mind that entire Seiko movement can be bought for like $50-75. And many of their most common movements are interchangeable. For example, an older 7S26 can be replaced with a new NH36 that sells for about $50. https://chronometercheck.com/seiko-7s26-movement/

It's not entirely unfeasible to imagine buying a spare movement or three if you were, say, planning on doing sort of a heirloom thing and wanted to ensure a supply of parts N decades into the future.
You are being pressured to get higher salary for the same level of work you are currently doing and this is a problem? Strange.
Many outsiders have noted that googles incentive structure is not around customer happiness in general. Thus articles and discussions like this one.
You managed to weasel out of most of my points, which doesn't make for very fruitful discussion. But I have one more thing to add:

> This argument assumes that abortion is not inherently wrong. Many people who oppose abortion do believe that it is inherently wrong.

No. If they believed it, they wouldn't themselves get an abortion when having a child would be bad. Soooo many stories of pro-lifers preaching one thing, and doing something else when they themselves face a situation wanting to abort. They are "excused" because of the circumstances, but when others have the same problems, they are "immoral" for getting into the situation.

That's hypocritical, and shows it's more about imposing moral values onto others and controlling them, not a belief about it being inherently wrong.
Sounds like a common sentiment then. I don't think it's unreasonable to be mad that people are trying to sell you iterative changes on what you already have, it's the race-to-the-bottom mentality that SAAS models tend to encourage.
> A warning though, if you consider to get into that hobby. I tried, it's really hard, expensive

Wrist watches are pretty hard and expensive. Pocket watches are less so. When I was interested in getting more intimate with watch repair, I went to eBay and bought up a whole bunch of old pocket watch movements. I've got about 150 of them in various condition, most of them Waltham (easy to get, inexpensive, and I happen to have spent the first 25 years of my life spending a lot of time in the old Waltham Watch Co factory building because my father's company leased out space in it).

Basic tools aren't too bad, just a nice set of tweezers, screwdrivers, and a good magnifier is enough to do a lot of repairs. But you can fall down the rabbit hole pretty quickly with the desire for increased quality tools and things like a staking set so you can replace balance wheel arbors.

I tried to move from the pocket watches into wrist watches, and while the technology is largely the same, the reduced size and increased complexity made it less enjoyable for me. Instead I ended up moving the other direction and now have a nice collection of 18th and 19th century 30-hour and 8-day clocks (more commonly known as "grandfather clocks").
It looks good, but as you can probably tell, you're only able to import Half Life: Alyx assets as of right now. Without Workshop assets like SFM1 had, it's going to be really hard for it to reach the critical mass it once enjoyed.
If you need to sift through 200 years of history to find an example of something you are certain is true, then you should reconsider the standard by which you distinguish truths from pure speculation. You are welcome to speculate that one of the 115 Supreme Court Justices engaged in behavior that would compromise the trust of the institution they serve, but you should not be so certain of it without being able to present some kind of evidence.

Furthermore your use of the term "successfully impeached" suggests that you don't understand the meaning of the term, which is fine since it's actually a commonly misunderstood legal term that most people confuse with conviction, but it's a further indication that your speculation on this matter is poorly informed. There is no such thing as a successful impeachment anymore than there is a successful trial, they are both processes rather than outcomes.

I mean, that's bad, but those numbers aren't anything compared to what climate change is going to do. If the population of Earth drops by a billion over the next hundred years, that's 10M a year, on average. (I recognize that I'm not differentiating between premature deaths and a lack of replacement births, but still.)
I'm not sure I like the idea of land value taxes though I concede there is a better argument that government expenses correlate better to land owned than to income.
I assumed that TurboTax has already adjusted their pricing tiers in response to the lawsuit since my vague memory of many years ago is that the lower tier was about $30. If someone can give more accurate pricing information for the effected years that would be cool.
> The majority of minimum wage work is done as supplemental income to a household (teenagers or spouses or partner).

Is this actually true?
This has been my experience as well through contracts with the government.

To further this, there is also no incentive and funds to modernize an already existing product. If it was written in Java 6 using J2EE, it’s going to continue to be that until it dies.

Folks I worked with also didn’t care to up skill or learn new ways of doing things because the incentive wasn’t there. Their cost was fixed, their price was fixed, their profit was fixed. They will do the bare minimum to satisfy the contract.

Yes, I am advocating for this.

My take on what you are saying is that you deem other uses of energy more appropriate — “you can’t use it that way! You must use it in this way”.
Ultimately it is market forces that determine if using energy for a particular purpose.
If there are no pollution externalities to add complexity, it is up to whomever is paying the bill on what they want to spend it on.

I appreciate that some miners will find it rational to use their entire renewable power to mine Bitcoin; and that is ok. Not everyone wants to mine. For some, the utility of an EV is greater than that of mining, and so just looking at a energy/cost ratio ignores demand and utility.

Additionally, the PoW paradigm was invented, and exists today, and there is not a lot one can do to stop it.
From 2009 onwards, humanity has decided to dedicate some percentage of global energy output and to the purposes of maintaining ledger security.
I have always said this is a good thing, and if you have a problem with this, complaining about it achieves nothing.

Good for him! I would be lying if part of it wasn't also the lifestyle, big city is very appealing to me, personally!

Here's a short list of why I'm personally planning on leaving:

* Winters here suck, a lot (4~ months of the year is <40 degrees f, much of it in the 0-9 degrees f range)

* Summers here are hot and muggy (3-4 months of the year >75 degrees f + 73% humidity daily avg.)

* Mosquitoes are very bad here (and I'm allergic to them)

* I'm allergic to most of the flora around here, thanks dad

* Better job market, not a fan of fully remote work

* Walkable communities, better public transit

* More people for niche hobbies

* Better diversity, nearly everyone here is white or a college student

* Far from major airports, air travel is either expensive + inconvenient or a 3 hour drive away

* Outdoor activities are rather limited here relative to other parts of the country, it's very flat and the lakes are small

* Surrounding area is all yee-haw people (lol)

* Restaurant selection is good, relative to only having a McDonald's and Little Ceasars (so not good, but better than most other parts of the state)

* Hope you like driving! You'll do a lot of it to do anything at all

* Housing market here sucks too, maybe not as bad, but still out of range for most

Hey - can you please make your substantive points without personal attacks or swipes? We ban accounts that do those things—especially new accounts showing up to fight shit out like this. Not cool, no matter how right you are or feel you are.

Also, it's not in your interest to post like this to HN anyhow. The audience will only side against you if you fulminate and call names. If you want to win readers over, you should drop all that and instead provide specific, concrete information and say what's important about it.

(Before anyone misinterprets the above: I have no idea which side you're on. I haven't looked at any of the comments you've replied to. All I know is that, whichever side you're arguing for, you're going about it in the wrong way for HN. If you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and fix that, we'd appreciate it.)
I think some countries use a different tradeoff than the US for their income tax. Instead of spending a ton of government and taxpayer time and effort to accurately assess what each taxpayer owes, the government simply generates an estimate based on what it knows about each taxpayer and uses that. They accept the reduced accuracy but it is offset by the reduced effort in determining everyone's bills. That is to say, you don't need to move away from an income tax to address the problem.
Congratulations to Tailscale. Imagine how many times you can migrate to a new novel database architecture with that kind of money.
Throwaway for obvious reasons - me and a bunch of people I went to high school with did pretty frequent and sometimes high doses of this stuff. Rather fun - when you weren't puking your guts out. None of us seem to have come out of it terribly worse for the wear, though there are certainly some horror stories you can read about out there. Plenty of trip reports on Erowid.

In the spirit of harm reduction - you have to be very careful if you decide you're going to (ab)use this stuff OTC to make sure you're not getting any other drugs along with it like acetaminophen, Guaifenesin, chlorpheniramine, pseudoephedrine, or any other active ingredients. They can do permanent damage to various organs or cause very unpleasant effects.
I'd imagine it's not an issue since Grand Central Dispatch will only assign it to a single core cluster, which leaves the other cores free to do their own processing.

Well yes, there’s definitely a reason there are problems with opiate addictions.

A differentiation between legal and illegal drugs is the legal ones poison you before they make you feel particularly amazing, the illegal ones poison you after. Take way too much acetaminophen and you get liver failure before you feel euphoria.

There are arguments to be made that many illegal drugs are safer at effective doses but have risks of abuse not present in the drugs that poison you before abuse is fun.
Not yet, but we will soon, though we already rotate the in memory state when a certain (configurable) size is reached. The idea is that we’ll put data in parquet format into object storage from where it can be consumed from any parquet compatible tools. That plus additional metadata is what we’ll use for long term storage for profiling data ourselves.
Fun thing - I work in the Bay Area but because of my visa I don’t have to pay federal taxes and only pay state which is like 18%
It's always annoying when something tries so hard to have the trappings of logical reasoning but is completely lacking in the substance.
I'm not sure I agree with that in the slightest, given the way the tech industry has gone with software sizes/complexity/etc.

I fundamentally use computers to do the same things I did in the late 90s - IRC, chat, some web browsing, development, etc. And due to things like Electron, a quad or hex core system with 4GB RAM struggles with a lot of these things now.

The result of that is an awful lot of ewaste, as machines that were perfectly able to do things when they were released lose that ability as the complexity of software goes up - for not that many new features, really. AIM back in the 90s fit on a floppy, Element is a bloated pig that mostly does the same thing - chat with people. At least there are some native clients.

I think we should require developers to use gutless wonders once a week, instead of "Well, it works fine on my 16 core Xeon with 48GB RAM!"

In general I wish people spent more time looking at alternatives when these huge projects are proposed. For instance, it drives me nuts thinking of all the alternatives when I see making bids to pay billions for the Olympics. That's the kind of money that could turn the whole area into a science Mecca in several different, with a whole host of positive downstream effects locally.

I’ve had poor posture all of my life and learning about transverse abdominis activation has been the most useful for correcting it, particularly anterior pelvic tilt. That and using standing desk periodically through the work day. I also keep my guitar next to the desk, picking it up and playing helps me snap into better posture.

Additionally, grip strength training has helped me a lot preventing wrist RSI.

You could actually do this without JS, just wrap the image in a label for an invisible input, and apply transform with a transition based on :focus or :focus-within.

It would be ugly, sure, but so much of modern front-end development is already ugly.
Also, that is not what toxic masculinity means. If you have an all-woman organization that has a culture dominated by counter-productive competition, you don't call that "toxic masculinity". That just wouldn't make sense.

At best, the competition is a symptom of the real (alleged) problem of toxic masculinity: too many men. Specifically an environment where men are systematically favored over women for sexist reasons.

That Google is suffering under such a system is a claim which needs defending.

It did have a solution. However, the packs all contained different information. Once this information was shared, an individual could solve the puzzle fairly easily. Group dynamics tended to block this though.

The data shows that you are not correct- Seattle has a 17$ per hour minimum wage and the sky did not fall. Things improved, mostly for the people at the very bottom. Business owners made a lot of threats but ultimately they did not move out of the city.

> I would like to suggest bankrupting the company. It's not "fair" or "just" but it would be in the common good.

Interestingly, someone pointed out the same reason is why these companies get bailed out when they fail.
Ok, I surely not going to argue about minor technical details of plan or possible flaws in execution.

One question to ponder is how companies like Intuit came into being in first place. Why is doing accounts, filing taxes have to be so detailed and complex that this service is needed by many? If IRS rules and government legislations are published in detail, months/years ahead of enforcement, should a reasonably intelligent person just follow along and file directly without any intermediaries.

After all using third party service is not something mandated by law and not using it would result in fine.
I really didn't want to snark at this: I wanted to see something technical and interesting. But it turns out putting "clubhouse" and "relevant" in a sentence together ended exactly as I expected.
I don't think Intuit's total revenue is relevant to this discussion. The most relevant number is how much money did they make off this little scheme which seems to be much less than their total revenue. I didn't see this value in the article, nor was I able to find TurboTax's pricing model for the years in questions so I went off (my very fuzzy) memory that their lowest tier was about $30.
yeah, Stripe has a totally reasonable defense for this:

1. Obviously this is a product we'd want to build because our customers want it

2. We contacted Plaid to see if they wanted to be part of it

3. Plaids pricing didn't work for us so we built it ourselves / went with other providers

Not sure what you'd even get from talking to the team at Plaid that couldn't be learned in an afternoon or two using product that use Plaid and hacking on banking API's.
I worked for 4 years as a merchandiser (to this day one of my favorite jobs). I made $14.25 an hour for driving around to stores and "facing" chips. I would basically clean up the chip aisle for the chip company so it looked nice and people would buy more chips.

It's hard to imagine that job makes any sense at $25 an hour.

This wasn't a case where I was being underpaid for my labor. There is only so much value a job like that is ever going to create, and at a certain point it doesn't make sense to employee people doing it anymore.

Really nice. Minor UI / marketing suggestion - set the summary size somewhere in the middle for the initial summary rather than right at the bottom. This would allow the user to see a shorter version but not the really cropped one which feels a bit too much at first pass.
To be fair, the IRS does not "come after you" if you make a mistake. They send you a letter, with request for the additional amount due, and if you agree, you pay it. Done.
powermetrics is not an estimate. Of course some other things on the system may change behavior if it’s not plugged in.
> > Says who?

> Voters and dollars spent on political speech.

Pretty flimsy argument. It appears that the voters and funded political speech have actually decided the opposite. There is no $25 minimum wage. If we accept your assertion that voters are the moral authority, that implies the current 7.5~ rate is fair.
Nobody wishes to sell their labor at a price that means they are stuck in a cycle of poverty; they do it because they have no choice.
I think that the IRS is hoping that people make mistakes in their favor... I.E.: Anyone ever got a letter from the IRS saying that they paid too much?
