I don't think this applies in this case. The brackets here are used for resolving precedence only. They are a syntactic feature which are not represented in the language semantics.

Where brackets are used in some languages to construct tuples, you generally need special syntax to represent the case for 1-tuples, like Python where "(1)" is equivalent to "1" but "(1,)" is a 1-tuple containing a single 1 value.

Also in most FP semantics, x and the 1-tuple containing x are not equivalent so the mathematical isomorphism doesn't hold. The tuple itself could be undefined (bottom/unterminating or null, if the language has such a concept), or could contain an undefined value or could be completely well-defined. These three cases are not represented in the semantics of the unbundled value.
Ultimately it's a game of semantics. I'd say a trial is not fair if the law is intentionally built to not weigh any kind of moral defense.

What, for example, would you say about extraditing Western journalists to China and have them stand trial for whether they criticized the CCP? Would that be a fair trial?
In the short term, THIS is the future I really believe in.

Of course, you need to put some effort into staying anonymous. Use it often enough and it's not hard to find out who you are.

But there is no ID requirement in the US. You can buy a SIM for cash, buy a phone for cash.

This is unlike many other countries. Singapore links all SIMs to your ID at purchase. There is a black market for anonymous SIMs (linked to random people's IDs), but the police actively crack down on those.

This is the UK government desperately trying to find something they can sell as a Brexit benefit. So far we've had blue passports (which we could have had in the EU), rapid Covid vaccine approval (which we could have done in the EU), return of imperial measurements (which nobody under the age of 60 understands or wants and which never went away in the EU) and more powerful vacuum cleaners (as in, more expensive to run).
This is a huge step forward for ease of use and accessibility.

I must refer to a study using Twins that were adopted in different families followed by 30 years. [1]

Proportion of variance in IQ attributable to environmentally mediated effects of parental IQs was estimated at .01 [95% CI 0.00, 0.02]

•

This really shows the range of government effectiveness. At one end you have bored public servants who produce nothing but kafkaesque nightmares. At the other end you have government-employed academics who produce cool stuff that drives tech innovations. When thinking about the government, people often only think about the first case.
One of the big differences memory-wise between the C/C++/Rust family and the Javas of the world is having first class support for by-value object types (and collections thereof).

You cannot embed images in Org documents. Or rather, you can, but would need to code the support for this for yourself. On the other hand, displaying images within the Org documents is trivial. You just need to have the image file saved somewhere. Then you insert a link to the image file and, with the default settings, you should be able to see the image rendered inline in the document. You can also generate the image from within the document. You write a ditaa code block, execute it, and the png with your UML (or whatever) is inserted or updated.

On the other hand: no, Emacs is not a WYSIWYG word processor. The need to support terminal as a display backend weights heavily on the pace of GUI improvements. That's because all interface elements need to be renderable on all backends (not strictly true, but the prejudice against GUI-only elements is significant). So if you hope to be able to easily and conveniently display something like this: https://klibert.pl/statics/vw-doc-view.png then Emacs is empathically not the best tool for the job.

>OK so if a robber comes to my house and says pay up or leave, then that's not a forceful action at gunpoint?

They are not a robber they are a landlord, you are on their land, pay taxes or leave your choice. They are not forcing you to stay and work and pay taxes at gunpoint, you have the choice to leave. However while you are there you must fund the services they are currently providing to you, if you willfully evade that payment then you are committing a crime, but you have the option not to, you always have choice.

>That's not how it works -- allow me to inform you of tax law in the US. US Citizens are responsible for filing, and possibly paying taxes on income earned ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.

Most standard income is covered under FEIE and FTC, that is you won't pay taxes twice if your paying taxes in another country utilizing their social service instead and if you have been truly living in working for almost a full year you pay no tax on the income.

Note since you are US citizen you still benefit from their social service while living abroad, the are many protections upheld to US citizens traveling abroad you would no longer have if you renounce.

>Now you could renounce citizenship, but even then that wouldn't satisfy your condition of "no longer pay" because you even have to pay over $2000 just to renounce citizenship, and that has to be done outside of the US.

Exactly, you must pay your final rent payment and get out, no one is forcing you to stay. If you don't have the money to pay then you are not making income to pay taxes either.

>When I pay rent/mortgage it's for my own use of property in a private contract, in a voluntary exchange. Tax is an involuntary transaction. A very different thing.

You have agreed to the social contract [1], you are voluntarily staying in the country and utilizing the social services and resources (military and police protection, roads, public spaces etc.) to make money and live safely and productively. No one is forcing you to stay, there are places in this world that do not tax you for police and schools.

>You start off saying nobody is forcing this at gunpoint but then you go on to challenge me to "keep it through force."

That's the point, the reason you don't have to defend your property and life through force on a daily basis is because you have voluntarily agreed to live in a country that has the monopoly on violence [2] and in exchange for the social service of military and police protection you must pay taxes if you profit from that protection.

People are social animals, they work together to solve problems no individual could on their own, money facilitates this and is needed to fund the large social framework you live under hence taxes. If government disappeared tomorrow, it's would be reformed quickly in not so pleasant ways. You may not like it but that doesn't matter because others will form large groups and impose it on you regardless and you will have no choice over its form.

Are you opposed to all non procreative lifestyles? Are you supportive of lesbians since women are far more likely to get a sexually transmitted disease from a man than from a woman? Are you opposed to 60 year old heterosexual couples having sex since that act is non-procreative? Are you by chance Catholic and oppose the use of condoms?

You may think and believe whatever you want. In 1950 your views would be normative. In 2020 they are not. In this present era with its views on sexual and bodily autonomy you are an “asshole” as you phrase it.
Sounds like you're doing well professionally. But that your professional success and growth (again, which are great things) are part of a cover-up mechanism for underlying fear (which is valid and relatable). Even your vacations, restaurants, new hobbies, those all sound like they're in the bucket of "external things" (alongside your professional success) to try to stave off the existential anxiety about the crumbling world all around us.

Like others are suggesting, I'd consider spending time finding a counselor who is a good fit for you (may need to do some shopping around), or read up on books about anxiety, how to let go of things outside of your sphere of influence and control, and etc.

Those are more "inner" stuff (vs the "external" things, such as work, hobbies, vacay, food, people, etc.). Inner stuff is huge, because it basically impacts every single relationship we have, with anyone, anywhere, no matter the degree of closeness or not.

Some folks will settle for managing the symptoms of anxiety, but others try to go after the roots of the causes and see if they can even replace the roots with entire new paradigms.

Either way, it's kind of a long-haul commitment, a lifestyle, if you will. Just some food for thought to consider. Glad you're doing well with your work. Hope you can find that inner equilibrium no matter what's happening around us (because we're learning to manage what is within us, so to speak).
> The organizers are free to leave the company if they aren't comfortable with the leadership

This is weird stance.

'If you don't like it you can leave.'

That's what parents say to discipline misbehaving kids.

The organizers wrote the letter because they care about their work and workplace, and are concerned with Musk's behavior that jeopardize their effort (as in spaceX as company whole).

The people that actually know whats going on in the company are its employees not CEOs.

And that is especially true to musk who is doing 1000 things, and those seems to most be: keeping up appearances that he is doing work + creating new PR disaster via twitter.

I don't think constantly raising and lowering the pantograph is a practical solution. Having lines with spotty overhead is very error prone and reliability is a big factor in rail. If we're talking about longer sections that are either electrified or not, things are different. E.g., extending the line for 100 km into an unelectrified part. Trains like the Stadler LINT (see my edit above), could make that happen.
Evernote, for all the flak it is getting, is still a remarkable product and I feel like the pricing is fair for what it gives. It ingests everything from everywhere, it indexes and scans everything for a flat fee.

They are currently still catching up to reach feature parity with the old native clients, but at least they are releasing more frequently --which means betting the house on Electron technology is paying off--.

I do not use Evernote any more (finally ended up with plain files in iCloud Drive and EagleFiler to top it off) but I am still following their releases as a paying customer.

I'm decidedly not interested in choosing between control by a handful of bureaucrats vs a handful of profiteers. Neither is an acceptable lesser evil.

You should carry your phone, GPS on, with you everywhere all the time. The only exception should be when you need to go out and do something that will be frowned on by the powers that be.

I have struggled with anxiety for almost my entire adult life. As others have said Therapy is a fantastic choice. It helped me a lot. But it always felt like with all the progress we made there was a bit of a hump that I could never get over. For years I stagnated not making progress with a therapist. To be clear I am not saying the therapist was not worth it, it helped keep the existing progress in check, but we had hit a wall.

Then covid happened. I hit a point that I could no longer handle my anxiety on my own. Partially since I lost my outlets, but also just the added anxiety around covid. So I caved and finally talked to my doctor about medication. This was something I resisted for a while because I am not anti medicine by any means, but I am very cautious of being over medicated. But I did it, and honestly it was one of the best decisions I have made in a long time.

Now it took a few tries to find the right medicine, we had one particularly bad experience. But we started on a very low dose for all of this. Just a week ago we added an antidepressant to the mix and... I feel like I did when I was 18/19. I feel like myself again that I never thought I would. A change that I just chalked up to "being an adult". I am getting enjoyment out of things that... I really missed.

So I don't want to say you should dive head first into being medicated. But with what you are describing, it might be worth talking to your doctor about a very low dose of something just to help you while you talk to a therapist.

Mental Health is horribly stigmatized, we need to take care of ourselves.

On the note of therapy, don't be afraid to try a few therapists at first. It may take you a few tries to find someone you click with.

> > A privatized internet will always amount to the rule of the many by the few

> Giving control to the government is rather explicitly giving control to the few

There's no clear distinction between the government and corporations.

It's an open secret in politics that government jobs are a revolving door to/from industry.

Corporate executives frequently go in to politics, and when politicians retire they often get cushy, high paying jobs at the very corporations they benefited while in office.

They don't have to be outright bribed while in office (though it's not unknown for that to happen), but they know they'll be handsomely rewarded once they leave.

That's not to mention them or their family members investing in companies they know will benefit from their actions while in office.

So if you're against concentration of power in the hands of government then you should also be against concentration of power in the hands of corporations, and vice-versa.
