I was pleasantly surprised to see them on the Fediverse, but I guess that shouldn't be a surprise.
Here's the IRS definition of "digital assets":

https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employe...

"Digital assets are broadly defined as any digital representation of value which is recorded on a cryptographically secured distributed ledger or any similar technology as specified by the Secretary.

"Digital assets include (but are not limited to):

- Convertible virtual currency and cryptocurrency

- Stablecoins

- Non-fungible tokens (NFTs)"

I would have thought that "digital assets" existed before there was any "cryptographically secured distributed ledger or any similar technology."

For example, a record label might own the original recordings of a 1995 song as a set of files. Legally, they own the copyright in the recording, but the copyright alone isn't enough because the copyright loses its market value if the associated files get destroyed. In other words, the files are 1) digital and 2) assets, because if someone bought the recording, they would reasonably expect to get both the copyright and the files.

Sure; I was being poetic. We could talk about when you sleep, or distant regions of the universe that you simply can't measure within a human lifetime.

> MWI isn't the only interpretation, and there isn't a current experiment which can determine which if any of the interpretations are correct. This is the same problem String Theory has had. You can't just base reality on the math.

When other "interpretations" require extra assumptions, you can, and should. Otherwise you can never rule out theories that add extra epicycles that have no observable consequences.

Yes but it's worth understanding that houses rarely sell for more than average in the area. An "overimproved" house is likely not going to recoup the money spent. Of course if the house is very dated or hasn't been kept up, simple updates like paint, carpet, new appliances, etc. can be inexpensive enough to be worth doing.

If you're renovating because you want to continue to live in and enjoy the house, it's more a personal question of whether spending the money will increase your happiness.

Think of yourself from the position of the owner of a plantation in the deep South a few hundred years ago. That sentence would apply just the same and it would be just as wrong. Getting older is a fantastic way to find out about what your prejudices and conditioning were. Those changes that really aren't positive will eventually self-correct, and those that really are but that we - oldies - are not quite ready to accept will correct as well, either when we change or minds or a bit later when we die. It's up to you to decide how much of a disconnect you want to accept with younger generations. I have four kids in a large range of ages and these same principles keep on being pressed home to me and I've yet to find one of those exceptions where my 'old self' was in the right.

This aspect covers a lot of ground: traditions, discrimination, the whole woke thing, attitudes, music style and so on. Either you stay with the times or you'll be left behind there are no third options afaics. I'm having a relatively easy time to adapt on those things that I don't care about. The dangerous bits are those that I do care about and where I'm simply dead wrong. Typically the things I care more about are those things that I have invested either a lot of time or a lot of my ego in.

Best of luck with this, it isn't an easy problem.
My mistake. When you said:

I thought you were agreeing with the root comment that the things Guzey pointed out aren't meaningful.
Well, the definition of income in the USA includes [1]:

> income means all income from whatever source derived

Then it only proceeds to except certain things. So the better question, from the perspective of tax laws are: "are there any laws in this space that takes away the IRS's very clear authority to treat crypto earnings/losses like any other income"

Supply, Demand.

And what is involved here isn't a scarce resource per se. There is no failed minable element, no shortage of fuel, etc.

It's simply: increase the price of labor to get more labor. It's very very very very simple. Like, the first fucking day of microeconomics.
I'm prepared to be surprised, but I don't think you can even "plead the 5th" with respect to your tax forms: the IRS has thought of that, and will happily supply you with a form needed to report illegal income without actually specifying the source of your illegal income[1].

The answer is much simpler: being asked if you own or owned digital assets during a particular tax year doesn't amount to compelled admission of a crime, because owning digital assets isn't illegal. The only illegal thing would be dodging one's taxes.

They're clearly using it as a term of art. All parties involved more than capable of understanding that "Digital assets" as defined (explicitly!) by the IRS do not necessarily encompass everything that might be plausibly described by the noun-adjective pair "digital asset."

This is probably not a popular answer. For my blog I use Tumblr. I don't have any complex needs and Tumblr does everything I need it to do.

In this case, the drop is literally 50% in W2 income, as I went from a public company with RSUs to a startup. In the previous job salary was higher and RSUs were a decent amount, even after stocks tanking. Startup equity is decent, but that's more of a lottery ticket than anything else.
I don’t think anyone had demonstrated AGI is a foregone conclusion. I’m not sure it is possible with a Turing machine.

Isn't this about the third time Intel has gone gung-ho for "serious graphics" and given up?

Intel, your company basically exists to sell useful transistor real estate. If you look at the number of transistors in a graphics card vs a CPU, the graphics card has WAY MORE.

Intel's inabilty to do graphics has always been the canary in the coal mine for their technical competence.

Then again a graphics card is basically a VLIW chip if you squint hard enough, and ... Yeah, I guess it started with Itanium, so is it like four times they've failed at this?
Billionaires purchase very little consumption, as a fraction of their wealth. Most of their wealth is invested. So if they locked up their money in a vault Scrooge McDuck style, what would happen is that interest rates would rise, and asset prices would fall.

Whether that's good or bad depends on whether you are a borrower (bad) or lender (good). Everyone is a little bit of both (e.g. they have some retirement investments but also take out mortgages and auto loans), so there isn't a simple answer to the thought experiment.

And this also changes based on the government policy, as this thought experiment assumes no government. Government could react in a number of ways, from buying bonds directly to offset the wealthy selling their investments, or raising interest rates, or increasing public investment, depending on whether the government is more interested in price stability or maintaining total investment, or some other objective.

The main problem is that you are assuming that a group of people, en masse, will begin to act irrationally, and that's generally not how we think of economic interventions, but it's a good exercise to do.
The annoying part is that you are essentially cornered, being either LGBTQ and/or furry is a large part of your identity and it is hard to have to divorce yourself from that for the purpose of getting hired. Companies really need to get over this desire to know more about the private lives of their employees during the run-up to being hired than they are willing to disclose about their own affairs (such as: financial health of the company, maturity of leadership, attitude to quality of life issues, health care and so on).

It was accurate, I tried various ChatGPT generated responses. it gets very good results with all of them. Except when I went in depth about scientific topics. I wrote before this paragarah

> "Interestingly, despite neutrinos being otherwise ideal as a dark matter candidate, this limit told us they could not be dark matter. We know that neutrinos are much lighter than 1-3 keV. So you literally cannot cram enough neutrinos into a galaxy for them to be the dark matter. Amusingly, this Pauli Exclusion Limit for fermions is also what supports a white dwarf or neutron star from gravitational collapse. If the star got smaller, there wouldn’t be enough room for the electrons (dwarfs) or neutrons (neutron stars) without doubling up on quantum states. If dark matter is a boson, you can’t use the Tremaine-Gunn bound, since bosons are okay with all sitting in the same quantum state. So in principle, you can fit an infinite number inside a galaxy. You can use another property of quantum fields to constrain bosonic dark matter, though. If the particle is too light, the quantum wavefunction is so dispersed it cannot be localized inside the galaxy. This puts a lower bound of ~10^-22 eV on bosonic dark matter. Rather less than the bound for fermionic dark matter. But at least this is even a “thing.” Of course, there are other reasons to eliminate neutrinos as a dark matter candidate, but yet we know more about what couldn’t be a dark matter, not what is the dark matter"

I asked ChatGPT to `rewrite this in a more professional way` and got the following:

> Neutrinos have been considered as a potential candidate for dark matter due to their neutral charge and low mass. However, the Tremaine-Gunn bound, which sets a limit on the maximum mass of fermionic dark matter particles based on their contribution to the gravitational potential of a galaxy, has shown that neutrinos cannot be the dominant form of dark matter. This is because their mass is significantly lower than the 1-3 keV range set by the bound. Additionally, the Pauli Exclusion Principle, which states that no two fermions can occupy the same quantum state simultaneously, also prevents neutrinos from being concentrated in sufficient quantities to serve as dark matter. On the other hand, bosonic dark matter particles, which can occupy the same quantum state, may be able to satisfy the constraints set by the Tremaine-Gunn bound. However, there are other considerations, such as the lower bound of approximately 10^-22 eV on the mass of bosonic dark matter particles based on their ability to be localized within a galaxy, that must also be taken into account. Despite these limitations, it is important to continue exploring and evaluating the potential of various particles as dark matter candidates in order to better understand this mysterious and essential component of the universe.

I got two of them today, one after the other. One was for a discussion or issue I had previously commented on, but one was another repository I had never interacted with in anyway. GitHub removed one before I could report it, and I reported the other one. Both comments @ing me and the users have been removed now. I'm wondering if they got hit by something or if some part of their spam detection system wasn't working. It wasn't clear what the rubric was for having my name @ed by the spammers.
Maybe a dumb question, but how does or doesn’t this apply if you have played virtually any modern multiplayer video game in which you receive digital assets from loot boxes, or from buying cosmetics?

“Digital asset” seems like a VERY broad term just looking for perjury.

Not that the entire concept of how one files taxes in the US isn’t one big perjury trap already, it just seems less and less subtle about it with each iteration.
This analogy doesn't make any sense. Obviously submarines don't do any stroke at all. In this case, ChatGPT is being told to deliberately replicate a particular style of poetry. For what it's worth, its poetry is bad, and is nothing like Shapespeare. If you don't have an ear for poetry and wouldn't recognize the work of major poets, if you ask ChatGPT to replicate a particular style then you aren't actually in a good position to assess whether it did so particularly well.
Or try engaging with random people on the fediverse. Seems all of the people who used to write on tumblr and the YouTube comments migrated over there.

> But it has no fiscal value because it does not plainly ask for a taxable amount.

I think you're assuming this is some kind of "gotcha" question to provoke perjury because it doesn't ask for the value of the digital assets. That's because, as the instructions make clear, you need to fill out another form (Form 8949) if you check "yes" to this checkbox.

>> "wolf warrior" is a manufactured western label for PRC being diplomatically assertive in response to assertive western moves against PRC interests.

Actually “Wolf Warrior” is an extremely anti western, deeply hostile Chinese movie. The aggressive Chinese diplomacy was named Wolf Warrior because the level of hostility was similar.

You can watch it here, it’s startlingly aggressive in its stance:

Wikipedia:

Wolf warrior diplomacy (Chinese: 战狼外交; pinyin: Zhànláng Wàijiāo) is a style of coercive diplomacy[2] adopted by Chinese diplomats during the Xi Jinping administration. The term was coined from the Chinese action film Wolf Warrior 2.

Side note - I had to read this twice:

I have a partner who is non-binary but AFAB, has had two kids, and is going through perimenopause. They have strong monthly cycles

At first I thought you were saying that all three of them - mom and kids - have strong cycles. That makes sense, since it's known that women living in close company can synchronize their cycles, but your later discussion makes that sound really weird.

After a few re-reads, I realize that it's a pronoun problem. Your use of the plural pronoun made your comments rather more difficult for me to read.

For someone on the sell side to say that is pretty low.

The claimed benefit in the article is for depression. Depressed people who suffer sleep deprivation sometimes become less depressed. That could be true at the same time that cognitive performance and/or health suffers. I don’t know how long the sleep deprivation benefit works for depression, but just something to keep in mind; less sleep (or more sleep) is not necessarily a binary good or bad thing, it can be multiple goods and bads in some unknown weighted combination, and it can change over time and according to context, i.e., short term deprivation might help some people while long term deprivation does lasting damage.

They appear to specifically have guidance indicating that this refers to cryptocurrency and NFTs. However, I would also point out, stuff you buy in a video game is never actually an asset: It's just an entry in that company's database that your account has an item. You never really control it in the way you theoretically control a crypto asset.
