Yes, this is true.

But as tax money is raised, the local government has a choice

1. They can use the tax money to fund services.

2. They can return the tax money collected as a Citizen's Dividend.

If they don't have any need for any more services, everyone would still be able to live there. Your concern that people will lose their community are unfounded. They might decide, as the tax goes up, that they don't need a 1 mile by 1 mile plot of land, in which case they can sub-divide it and live in the area they care about. Anyone who uses less than the average amount of land ends up net positive through this process. Since land ownership tends to be skewed by wealthy land-owners, this means the majority of people receive net proceeds.

But maybe the city does want to spend these new funds on roads and infrastructure for the new people. They have correctly identified that land values will raise by more than they spend, so it is in the interests of the community for them to build. Since these services are profitable to the community, the collected dividends will now be even higher. This represents even more gains for our original garden tenders, but everyone who joined after the initial process shares in these gains.

Now that they have built more awesome stuff, the original citizens are now much better off. This city is now filled with companies moving in, providing jobs for the citizens, it's a magical process. Land values are all much higher. This means that the tax is higher, but it means that the dividend is higher. They can now either go for #1 or #2 again...

In a non-LVT world, it wouldn't make sense for the infrastructure to be built for the sole profit of the original land owners, so it wouldn't be built. Everyone is better off with the land value tax.

I think you're close but missing some important info. An enormous amount of women have faced unfair (or worse) situations with negative (or worse) personal outcomes for just the fact of being women. We can fairly call that oppression I think.

The promoters of the disputed language, in light of the priors, mis-apply* probable reasoning such that for any case of a negative outcome for a woman, it must be oppression.

In salts and in sea water, the chlorine is in the form of free chloride ions, which is also the normal form of chlorine in your body.

In sucralose, chlorine substitutes a hydroxy group and it is covalently bonded to a carbon atom.

Most of the organic substances where hydroxy groups are substituted with chlorine atoms are more or less toxic and some are carcinogenic.

For example, substituting the hydroxy groups in carbonic acid with chlorine yields the toxic phosgene, which has been used as a chemical weapon in WWI.
you are mixing up 2 things at once.

i have studied in "delhi" back in 2013-15. same with thousands of kashmiri kids outside the valley, in mainland india and abroad. that never changed even in 1990's, let alone after 2019. education was never stopped to a point "you as a kashmiri kid shouldnt go to delhi to study". if anyone says that then they are lying.

i am talking about voting in the valley and about this new "election tourism" that the ruling BJP is bringing. since no one was going to vote for them, they are bringing in their own sham voters.
>This made me think that at some level, mainstream Kashmiri youth are willing to give the rest of india a chance.

kashmiri kids have been to delhi and karachi at the same time, there is no difference for both.

>I feel bad about abrogating A370 but at the end of the day, the existing status quo had gone on for too long.

> I don't understand the hype around the Mona Lisa.

Because the Mona Lisa is not just a piece of art, but a piece of history that had a wide ranging influence on art, and it was painted by one of the greatest artists who ever lived, who was also a polymath and excelled in engineering and science. There are also some unsolved mysteries around it. If all you see when looking at the Mona Lisa is flourishes of paint, then maybe you need to consider wider contexts.

Art is valuable because it engages humanity, emotionally, socially, intellectually, and there's no doubt that the Mona Lisa has created a lot of debate and study. Maybe you don't like it by itself, but you should still appreciate the wider context.

Everyone always with this "noise"! Of course there is noise! They are looking at the "noise" and telling you what it is from! Genetics!

If you average any trial out in a large population there will be "noise", but these people who live with the "noise" are the ones affected and suffering.

Some of those seem positive to some christians. Some lutherans are advocating for porn as long as it's ethically sourced. Christian morality is a very broad tent to generalize about.

Though I am not one of those people. Porn is obviously missing the mark, literally, morally and ethically. It's disturbing what % of the population makes it's living off prostitution, digital or not.

> The reality of this type of art is that it’s really easy to make

This is such a shallow statement. Was it difficult to hit the keys which make up your lines of code?

You're too much a reductionist to appreciate this.
It's interesting that you are contrasting "things that are beautiful", and then as the main criticism "it's really easy to make".

In the next few years we are going to have this debate over and over again (AI-art). Does art need to be hard to make to be called art? If I create something really beautiful but it only took me a few seconds to make, is it still art? Would your appreciation of an art piece change if you knew the author didn't spend as much time as you thought on it, why? It's still the same piece.

If a future civilization discovers a lost painting, they can't tell how many hours went into it. Art should stand on its own, the difficulty in creating the final piece is a metadata that is biasing our judgement. "Beautiful" and "hard to create" are orthogonal dimensions.
Giving money to someone who is seriously mentally ill (e.g. suffers from near permanent psychosis) is a recipe for disaster. Same for someone who is a hardened drug addict. Money is not magic fairy dust that is going to solve these issues, even if a big chunk of polite society is deluded enough to think so.

There is a strong need for a good, modern and well maintained cross-platform C/C++ libc.

I am not sure about the APE executable format, it is a nice and technically impressive feature but I would not mind if the lib dropped the support for it in the future.

This might be a minor issue for some, but I do not like having to distribute a .com file, it look suspicious.

Overall, this is fantastic work, very useful and inspiring, the kind of project that could help to fuel a C based apps renaissance.
Your line of thinking doesn't make sense to me. Lab grown organs are going to lead to ecological disasters and privacy scandals if only because they'll save the life of the next privacy Hitler who will go on to use micro batteries in hideous ways.

Is there any evidence that almost 100% of transactions use Infura? There are several other popular nodes as a service since the cited 2018 article was written: Alchemy, Quicknode, Moralis. Anybody running a full node, including home stakers, can point to their own RPC endpoint.

When one of the popular nodes as a service goes down, many dApps and users will need to change their endpoint to another. I think the author might be overstating the concern of this centralization.

The solution to RPC centralization is well known: light clients. It is on the developers roadmap but obviously they are prioritizing proof of stake and scalability.

Nothing in that comment was specific enough to respond to, but sure, my here are my responses which are unnecessarily verbose due to the generality of the questions, assuming it was popular and supported belief; again, all the responses you referred to were “generally speaking, how would xyz be done” — not specific statements saying “x is not possible because of y”, which would actually result in a narrow well defined exchange:

>> So then what happens if someone's anonymity is stripped away?

It would be impossible in any significant way, since it would be impossible to digitally identify any entity without having there prior consent; something that’s easily possible with existing technology. If person revoked that permission, retaining data would be illegal, even for the government. If government needed to identify someone, it would be done systematically and anonymously; for example, if a person needed to pay taxes, access a controlled area, etc - it would all be done anonymously with persons consent, if they decline to provide the required anonymous digital tokens, response would be predefined, and would include being deported to an exiled region.

>> Do they sue the de-anonymizer, or does the de-anonymizer face criminal penalties? Or both?

Both.

>> How does one determine an appropriate penalty for this sort of thing?

Person loses access to modern technology, is deported, would be unable to reach anyone once deported, and would never be allowed to return.

>> Does it matter if the victim made themselves stupidly easy to dox?

No, blaming victim is obviously irrational.

Linus Torvalds has a simple demand: don’t break userspace.

It’s hard work, but breaking changes should be rare. As a happy C# dev, very rarely is anything broken over here. Some obscure changes were made for the upgrade to 4.8 and .NET 5.0 but there are significant benefits.
You’re absolutely right. It just seems that apples market in Hollywood could begin to dwindle because all of the alternatives. I guess they can sell a apple silicon mac pro on speed, but what about the ease of customization that linux offers these companies. I think I’ve read that a lot of these production companies develop their own Linux distro, and probably software, and extensions (for the likes of davinci resolve). Is the raw speed advantage of their chips going to outweigh all the investment these companies have made in their previous solutions? I feel like a variation of this question floated along in the time after the announcement of the 2019 macpro as well.

Anyways, I’m not really in disagreement with you, I think, just writing some thoughts out.
Your comparison matches a lot mine with Symfony, but is way more detailed.

- I see you dislike generators as much as me ;)

- Template inheritance, it's maddening isn't it? Sadly it does not resonate with the RoR crowd and by extension the Phoenix one. I've been told to use "heex function components" instead but I'm still a bit lost as how this is an appropriate substitute.

- I disagree with your take on "fragment", it's almost my favourite feature of Ecto, as it means you can use almost any functionality of your database/version of choice without specific support from the (not-)ORM.

Why are we teaching sums and multiplications? After all, computers can do that these days. /s

The complaint that we're teaching something that we never see in engineering, like homogeneous equations is preposterous. It's like saying why teach fractions when in engineering you always see reals. If you want more advanced differencing equations, you can do a more advanced course or self study more advanced material. I have a guy in my company who has a PhD in a very niche topic in differential equations and he can actually solve real world differential equations.
There is also the phenomenon of regulatory capture, when the bureaucracy responsible for implementing regulations gets captured by the corporations and entities involved. Very relevant to what's happening today.
I really like this idea, good effort to make it. I do like Bandcamp, and many artists I've bought from tend to be there, so this should help me with discovering even more of what I like.

I think I've run into some weird issue maybe you can tell me what I'm doing wrong. I unchecked all the top level options. Then I went to Rock and under that I chose Post Rock only and unchecked every other item under Rock. Now when I try to go to the play section, there's nothing I just get a black box. Also when I refresh, the genres section seems to be slightly messed up.

Also I'm not clear if the top level items, whether they need to be checked or unchecked.

I don't get it: Bitcoin and privacy are by definition orthoginally separated. Bitcoin transactions are not anonymous, they're public and can be traced quickly and easily. You're one public key leak away from having your entire banking history leak to the public. You can work around this problem by having different wallets for every transaction, but getting the coins in there would be a huge hassle if you have to buy them physically, with cash, every time you want to pay.

Bitcoin is uncontrollable by the government but that doesn't mean the government isn't following your every step on the blockchain. They'll let you play with your internet coins as long as you behave but if they've got it out for you, either because you're a criminal or because they're oppressive, you can't rely on the blockchain to protect you. Physical money in your wallet is far more private than any other common form of blockchain currency (which is why many countries are trying to limit how much physical cash you can have on you).
I love it when I see this project here. Congratulations on the 2.0 release!

Blaming the apps is an easy scapegoat. In the end "the apps" are just another vector for meeting someone. I know a few guys that area always going out on dates but have never touched one of the apps, likewise in my case, I almost exclusively get dates from the apps.

What people need to understand about "the apps" is that there are some major differences (at least at the start) between meeting someone off a dating app, and meeting someone in person. You have to set different expectations for when you meet someone off a dating app versus when you meet someone at a bar for example. Most of the complaints I hear about the apps is folks that don't realize the difference, and that you have to adjust your strategy.

Those early DTP applications all made good use of graphical interfaces, so a few others used GEM, too (e.g. Office Publisher).

It's been a while, but didn't early versions of PageMaker even include Windows (2.0), if you didn't already have it? On IBM PCs, you couldn't really expect anything, so bundling makes sense. I think some mice (Genius and/or Logitech) included simpler DTP applications, too.

Ventura Publisher was pretty great. I think it fared better with multi-column layouts than most other applications, including InDesign until rather recently (spanning headlines).
There is a risk that many young people feels that they personally need to fix the world, when it only can be done by political and economic leaders.

The message that the most contaminant industries are sending is "You are personally at fault for all pollution" when the reality is that most pollution is created out of our direct capability of influence.

I have seen an increase of people sending the message: you can improve the world thru political action. You are not responsible for the world but you can put people in power to fix the environment and keep them accountable. That is way more healthy than to think that one can fix all the world problems by oneself.
I'm mostly impressed by the fact that he stuck with it for 50 years. I can't fathom having a concrete(pun intended) concept that survives 50 years of new information and experiences.

Yeah, everyone imagines that anarchy means apocalypse. And that anarchies mean a Mad Max or Fallout type situation with raiders wearing spikes. Or something from Judge Dredd.

An anarchy is more likely to be like a faraway rural area - neighborhood patrols, more self-subsistence, neighbors cutting your grass, some baking banana bread for everyone, people burning garbage, adulterers getting beat up.

CHAZ leaned into the TV stereotypes, and not the more natural historical ones.
To be frank it's a barometer for intelligence when people comment on art, and the "I don't like it, therefore it's crap" is pretty low on the bar.
Cynically, I’m almost to the point where I could consider this outcome an acceptable risk if the benefits are large.

The status quo today is an onslaught of (seemingly) random genomic and environmental impacts causing huge problems in human bodies. Treatments for these mutations may result in a lack of control of your arms or bowels…and don’t include a rollback feature.

Now, in the super simplistic worldview of my comment it disregards all of the random mutations and illnesses we’d need to deal with in addition to the possibility of poorly written code being deployed to our hypothetical nano bot army…so it’s for sure not the only answer, and your point has definite merit.

That’s because this is not art. Contemporary / modern “art” in general is pure crap, and is absolutely NOT art. It’s formed of a circle jerk of people who pretend like their work has a meaning or that they understand each other’s work. Art reflects the life view of the artist, and we can clearly see that this reflects nothing. All people involved know that it’s BS but they’re all afraid to be the odd one out or are directly profiting from people’s stupidity. It always comes down to pretentious elitist assholes who think they’re too intellectual to work for a living.
