> A lower rate for the same amount of income in capital gains compared to salary makes sense.

Why? This argument is often given as an axiom without any reasoning behind it.

There is often handwaving about "risk", but a worker has risks due to not being able to supply the labor that they are selling. They invested in their labor through paying for education and training.

Why is their "risk" not considered the same as capital "risk"?

I could see that working from the top down - ie. something in space beaming power "down" to a plane. Going from the ground up seems like it could be a little risky, nuking other planes, passing birds etc.

> I'm not saying everyone is born a potential mass murderer

That's exactly what you are saying.

> only that you should need a license to own a gun

> you need to subject yourself to deep government scrutiny

The USA was founded upon some very simple principles. Everyone is innocent until proven guilty. You have the right to bear arms. You won't be subjected to unwarranted government interference.

What you're advocating for violates all of those. You don't see free human beings whose innocence and right to be armed is presumed. You see suspects, potential mass shooters who have no business owning firearms until they prove to the government that they're innocent.

The right to bear arms is a symbol of a people's freedom and self-determination. You'd see them reduced to sheep in exchange for the illusion of safety.

> The fact that you inferred "everyone is born a mass murderer" from that says a lot about how sick America is compared to the rest of the world on the matter of guns.

I'm not american, I'm brazilian. I'm part of "the rest of the world".

Brazil is a country that actually held a referendum about gun control, discovered that over 60% of the population was against it and then effectively disarmed us all anyway. As a result, armed criminals invade our homes with the absolute certainty that we pose no threat to them. Even in formerly peaceful rural cities where some of my relatives live.

I suggest you think very carefully about what sort of future you want.
> the companies that own internet pipelines are required to rent access to businesses that then sell internet service to homes.

I don't know if AT&T was required to rent access, but they do: I have Sonic, 1 GB, for around $80/month, and they're reselling AT&T's fiber.

That's a recent thing. I haven't had anything bad happen yet with Sonic. I have that to look forward to.

To add to this. I believe the copper and coax infrastructure was subsidized by the gov't and so regulations were created to require granting independent ISPs wholesale access to the (last-mile) infra. AFAIK there are no similar regulations for the fibre networks as those were not subsidized.

The telecoms which own this infra have been lobbying hard to erode those regulations, and, they've been rather sucessful because the CRTC - the telecom regulatory body - has been composed largely of ex-executives of said telecoms.

> When a new article is inserted, there is a higher probability it will be inserted in a large gap than a small gap, so it should balance out.

That’s a good point and I’m not entirely sure why it (appears to) not work that way. Maybe it’s because that interval has a higher likelihood, but there is no preference for numbers towards the middle, that would dissect it into (roughly) equal parts?

Uh. Apple literally designs every part of the product in excruciating detail. Pretty sure they can make such repairs quick and easy if they wanted to.

We're talking about a battery replacement, not a replacement laser for a shark.

Phones used to have batteries replaceable in moments without tools. Now it requires 79 pounds of tools. That does seem like a backwards step, though IP water resistance ratings are all the rage now.

However, Apple made the currently existing phones without self repair in mind. Maybe their next generation will do better.

Modern worker agreements (a.k.a most normal jobs) do not have downside risk if you can’t deliver. You just lose your job and stop gaining money. With capital investments you can easily undo 5 years of gains in 1 bad year.

> It is a fact of life that everything, if it isn't destroyed, unceremoniously self-destructs.

True. The Parthenon, the work of classical authors and philosophers. Michelangelo’s David. The work of musicians, artists, architects and authors from bygone eras. They all fade and disappear without the tireless effort of conservationists and historians everywhere.

And thank goodness for their work. Its an indictment of our modern technology landscape how much tomorrow’s historians will be missing. Perfect digital copies are trivially easy to make, but that doesn’t seem to help. Is it possible to run old iOS apps? Play old Xbox or PlayStation games after Microsoft and Sony shut down their old online services? Install and run old copies of adobe products? See what GMail looked like when it launched? Or play earlier versions of multiplayer games like WoW or EverQuest? No. In a few years it will all be gone, rendered inoperable, “upgraded” or purged.

The work of pirates, software crackers and emulators has kept some of what we had in the 90s alive. But so much software we have today has been intentionally artificially made to be ephemeral. Chess has survived for thousands of years. How long will DoTA, Diablo3 or Hearthstone be playable? These games will be lucky to survive a generation.

What an inhumane way to treat a creator’s life’s work. What callous disregard we hold for the curiosity of tomorrow.

Yesterday I was working on updating code that implements Microsoft Open ID Connect (produces a JWT).

Their documentation [1] is exceptional - all the gotchas and reasons for practices are clearly explained and there’s a first class library to handle token validation for you. I even ended up using the same library to validate tokens from Google.

At work I often use Go notation for quickly describing my models to share with other devs, or for collaboratively iterating on ideas; both in text form and on UML diagrams.

The syntax is pretty simple and doesn't have "noise", it supports type aliases, too ("type Email string"), you can emulate optionals, there are useful built-in containers such as slices and maps on the language level (no need to import additional packages), most IDEs support syntax highlighting, etc.

It's an ad hoc solution and there's no tooling for it but Go has a built-in parser for its syntax so technically it's not hard to write a codegen tool based on that.

Separating the layers doesn’t help because there will never be competing infrastructure at the last mile, or, if it happens, it is inefficient almost by definition.

There is nothing wrong with infrastructure owners also offering the other layer, as long as you mandate that they charge the same prices internally as they do externally, run separate books, and don’t cross-subsidize.

Running the lines is a natural monopoly. Since digging ditches isn’t too complicated, there are a number of countries that have seen success with leaving this business in the hand of governments. As an alternative, you should be able to compare costs across time or geography, both domestic and international, and get a fairly good idea what it should cost, then set wholesale prices accordingly.

I probably wouldn't recommend Anchorage - if you want the mid-size American city lifestyle, there are honestly better (and more affordable) options in the lower 48.

We're not in the age of carts with batteries anymore, though. That was a technical limitation that doesn't exist anymore, and it's in no way comparable to this. If you own and control the game in such a way that you can access its saves and copy them elsewhere (which applies to almost every PC game that isn't live service garbage), you can pretty much ensure that losing them is impossible. This is basically a case of taking a solved problem and un-solving it.

And keep in mind that when people say "owning a game" in this context it doesn't necessarily mean having the game in its original (physical) format, if you have a ROM of a gameboy game on your PC and play it via an emulator, in some ways you "own" the game more than if you had it as a physical copy because you can ensure the permanent preservation of both the game and its saves, unlike with the physical version.
