In which work by Lenin would I read this? (Hint: it's most likely a misatribution).

Regardless, not wishing for war and collapse is an universal feeling, and it has nothing to do with supporting Iran's theocracy. Just in case, let me state explicitly that I think the current state of Iran is a tragedy and that I wish they lived in a democracy, and that I of course do not support any theocratic dictatorship, Islamic or otherwise. I specifically find the Islamic Republic as a depressing turn of events, when Iran could have been so much better.
Just to add to your point, I would like to say that I was, in fact, taught C and assembly and I wouldn't have had it any other way

People that never go low level usually don't feel it in their guts how computers work. Which is OK most of the time, but it bites you back often enough that it's annoying having to explain the actual fundamentals when your colleagues haven't had that experience
Literally every other first-word country has implemented this by now. Why the US is such a holdout is beyond me (I know why, lobbying.. but still).
This is an excellent point. Something changed. I'd argue that that however yet again brings us back to question of intent. There were pathways, RH for ex., that had worked as viable business models. But then cloud messed up with the well laid 'plans'.

> I have taken extensive experiments with CS faculty members from all over the world, and the vast majority of them —I mean about 95 % of them— cannot program a Binary Search.

Knuth’s the Art of Computer Programming volume 3 has some more on this. Off the top of my head he writes that it took something like a decade from the first published binary search to the first correct for all inputs version.

This is a bar that you would expect a professor to be able to jump over, but it goes to show that sometimes a simple sounding algorithm can be exceedingly tricky to get right. In my experience some kind of Hoare triple derived methodology with invariants is the only reliable way to code a correct binary search from scratch, as opposed to simply having memorized a solution. Here[1] is what at a glance appears to be a readable and correct example of how one might do that.

You have that option if you have a very simple tax return. It’s like the IRS’s version of “I’m feeling lucky”.
It also functions as memory in practice, though. With some complex tasks that can be broken down into steps, it often makes a big difference if you tell GPT to summarize its "understanding" of the current state as it goes through those steps - by repeating a phrase, keeping it within the token window, it effectively "remembers" something.
Most people don't qualify for those. If you think you can (legally) pay less tax, great, go for it. I'm sure you'd still be able to file taxes the hard way if you want. That's how it works in most non-US countries. The government tells you how much you owe, and you can either accept it or file paperwork demonstrating that you can pay less than that.

> How about you worry about yourself. What’s it to you if someone decides to get a vasectomy in their 40s?

I don't think almost anyone in this thread, including the person you are replying to, has any issues with 40 year olds doing whatever they want to with their own body. They are adults who can accept full responsibility over their actions and consequences, no matter how irreversable or disastrous they could end up being. Children are an entirely different story, as they, by definition, have no ability to provide informed consent to a lot of things, and rightfully so.

> Or are you simply more interested in bending and controlling people with your personal moral views where “pleasure and fun” are sins [?]

You are fighting windmills here. At no point had anyone in this chain of comments exerted any moral judgement against people transitioning or even suggested that it was sinful.

And to be extra clear, I have no issues with adults transitioning, and I would have no issues with minors either, if the process was fully reversible. Most western countries don't consider minors being legally able to give consent to getting tattoos due to their (near-)permanency, but no one has any issues with adults getting those. I, personally, would consider transitioning to have a much higher bar for "minors should be able to consent to it" than I would for getting a tattoo.

Possibly not in Kentucky specifically.

In Italy there have been traditionally (I believe since the middle ages) the "ruote" (translate to "wheels") that were a rotating cylinder with a slot open on one side.

The mechanism was common for convents (seclusion) to be able to fetch and deliver goods without having contacts with the monks or nuns, and was later (since around 1200) used for babies in some hospitals and churches.

They have been abandoned (or prohibited) in late 19th century soon after the reunification of Italy.

In a few places something similar has been re-instated since 2000 or so, in a few countries (which do not have particularly strict laws on abortion) in Europe:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baby_hatch

I believe these to be more connected to social assistance (to the poors, to paperless immigrants, etc.) than to abortion laws, possibly in the US they are instead linked to these new restictions on abortion.

You don’t have to. If the bases are all reported to the irs, you just need to put the totals on schedule D.

It’s amazing how much whining there is about these forms. A smart high schooler could do even a moderately complicated tax return. It’s when you own a business of some kind (including investment properties) that things get hard.
Well, you're right. He couldn't introduce the mobile web because there weren't any sites that offered a non-WAP mobile version, because no one could be surfing with mobile Safari when iPhone was first announced. But it was still Apple and web developers that caused this third Internet scourge, the mobile web, after the first two Internet scourges of Flash and Javascript.

It's understandable that a mobile user may want to conserve their data using the mobile versions of websites. What is anathema is Apple giving web developers the ability to force mobile site versions for mobile devices even after the user intentionally chooses to view the desktop site. A lot of sites won't respect that choice without something like &desktop=1 attached to the URL, and often as not even with it. Imgur is one that even if you do get the desktop site to load initially, it will immediately go back to the mobile site once you click to another Imgur page. Slashdot, also, makes it a real pain to not view the mobile version from a device.
That’s a single variable or rule if you want to change it site-wide.

If you want an unsemantic one-off, you can do it just like Tailwind by setting a utility class like “p2”.
That is the lobby portion. There is also a fairly large portion of the country that doesn't want to make it easier to file taxes because it encourages complacency with having the government take some of your money.
In which case you'd have the possibility to contest and file something more specific to your situation.

At least for now AMD doesn't have anything ARM. There are ARM systems available but nothing anywhere close to that price range.

The Honeycomb LX2 is probably the closest thing to that currently, but it launched for $750 and has since gone up to around $920. Performance is not remotely competitive with x86 systems at that price point.

There are some systems based on the Ampere Altra chips, but nobody sells the motherboards/CPUs on their own and a full system will run you at least ~$6000.
It’s not though, the CIA was ordered to release the MKULTRA records but _accidentally_ burned most of them instead.

I suspect scurvy in particular is an unusually poor model of Chesterton's fence. There were centuries of incredibly stupid ideas before the use of lemons came along, and the benefits of lemons were not obvious, or other nations would have adopted the practice. Blindly keeping with tradition would have helped only in the switch from lemon juice to lime- indeed, when the evidence suggested lime juice didn't work they were right to question it! If anything their error was failing to do more thorough tests of novel ideas. Every error was blundered into because they didn't have any real idea of the underlying mechanism.

That's not to to say that cultural evolution doesn't happen, but the relationship between vitamin-c and scurvy just happened to be extremely hard to work out.

I'll accept the baby step of a fixed historical period of time that they can audit your records. It's incredible nebulous.

For example here's the info on self-employed / business audits: https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employe...

> How far back can the IRS go to audit my return?

> Generally, the IRS can include returns filed within the last three years in an audit. If we identify a substantial error, we may add additional years. We usually don't go back more than the last six years.

> The IRS tries to audit tax returns as soon as possible after they are filed. Accordingly most audits will be of returns filed within the last two years.

> If an audit is not resolved, we may request extending the statute of limitations for assessment tax. The statute of limitations limits the time allowed to assess additional tax. It is generally three years after a return is due or was filed, whichever is later. There is also a statute of limitations for making refunds. Extending the statute gives you more time to provide further documentation to support your position; request an appeal if you do not agree with the audit results; or to claim a tax refund or credit. It also gives the IRS time to complete the audit and provides time to process the audit results.

> You don't have to agree to extend the statute of limitations date. However if you don't agree, the auditor will be forced to make a determination based upon the information provided.

So it's three years, but they sometimes go back six years. But they can also go back an arbitrary amount of years, so the three / six is completely meaningless.
> Refusing new nuclear is tantamount to eliminating nuclear.

IT IS NOT. Refusing new nuclear but understanding that current nuclear plants can't be shutdown (yet) until there's more renewable replacements for energy generation is a good compromise.
Do you know where there's any hard data on the actual speed of AMD's USB4 implementation in the 6xxx series? Everywhere I've looked, I get "USB4" then a blurb that USB4 can be "up to 40Gb/s" with the more honest stating that only 20Gb/s is actually required to meet the spec requirements.

What does AMD actually implement?

While we're on the topic, why is there basically no public information about Socket FP7 or it's chipset? Nothing on FP7r2 or FP8 either (by the way, upcoming 7xxx mobile chips support all three of these with likely different levels of motherboard capabilities). Why is there not much public for mobile AMD chipsets newer than a decade ago?
> For trivial things, maybe, but then people start applying the 'rule' to non-trivial things "because it's easy" and they get it wrong. All I'm saying is that until you are a Kent Beck level expert it's safer

Most of the stuff we do is trivial [1]. Unfortunately no one really teaches testing or shows what needs ot be tested. Hence the prevalent "write hundreds of tests perhaps some of them will actually be useful". And most available examples, and most available advice is that: write many many useless tests.

I have a perfect example from the Java + Spring world. It's common to have a Controller + Service + Facade + external service client definition.

So I've seen countless times when tests are written as follows:

- external service client is mocked, multiple unit tests for the Facade to make sure it returns data

- Facade is mocked, multiple unit tests for Service, to make sure data is returned

- Service is mocked, mutiple unit tests for Controller, to make sure ata is returned

They are all the same tests, and can be easily deleted and replaced by a single suite of:

- external service is mocked, including invalid responses and timeouts. The actual rest service provided by the app is tested for all the scenarious that were quadruplicated in the unit tests above

You don't need to be a "kent Beck level expert" to do that. However, almost literally nothing teaches you to do that or helps you write those tests. Almost literally everything is hardwired to write small useless unit tests.

[1] Except UIs. I have no idea how to test UIs, and I don't think anyone does :D
True, though I wonder to what degree a per-person dividend (some sort of universal income) could offset the regressivity of consumption taxes.

That is, we go ahead and tax consumption of land, road space, emissions, extraction, etc and everyone receives the same monthly sum that is enough to cancel out the taxes paid by a person who uses a minimal share of resources.

(Though I'm not sure I'd consider police interactions as a source of consumption taxes as per the original poster.)
Of course, what else? It was just worded differently
What specific chemicals?
This is how they do it in most of europe iirc
This is why the IRS sending you a pre-filled return would help with such a situation. Right now the employer can make mistakes and you don't even know.
Anyone know which chemicals?
There is no rub. Here[1] are 2010 numbers from the IRS showing 42% of Americans used 1040A or EZ. Many more /could have/. Since 2010 the standard deduction has gone up and there's no reason for a lot of people to itemize.

In many other countries the government provides you a pre-filled form. You can sign and return or file your own with relevant "loopholes."

There are two groups of people who want to keep tax filing difficult. Grover Norquist feels if paying taxes is too easy people won't be angry about it. This increases support for cutting taxes. The other group are tax preparers, like Intuit.

I briefly worked for a guy who made millions a few years out of college speculating his entire net worth on corn fields in Iowa when the Obama admin was looking to buy up land for ethanol production facilities.

At the time, he was working on a relatively interesting crypto backed prediction market intended to mine data from skilled professionals. It worked, but unfortunately the idea and the bespoke math behind it never really took off.

However, with his background as a construction engineer he created this:

https://patents.google.com/patent/US9121393B2/en?assignee=ma...

A novel means to extract geothermal energy without needing both water AND mineral rights on a piece of land AND the ability to vary how much energy you'd like to extract. This patent also explicitly references that you could power the entire western US with a few of these wells placed near Yellowstone. Granted, each well at that scale would near a cost of $1B.

Hope you're doing well Matt!

How many games run on it?
That era marked the lowest level of competition in CPU performance and it really showed in terms of how relatively lame an upgrade with the leader of the time (Intel) was. With AMD's products being competitive and ARM CPUs no longer being relegated to smartphone class performance there is real competition again. Given that and the historical tendency that software grows to use the available hardware I wouldn't bank on every CPU upgrade lasting as long as they did in that period.

But damn if it hasn't been hard to get a good deal on a GPU these last couple of years...

A mouse only lives 5 years so if we scale everything based on this to humans you’d have to be fasting for 16h * (80 years / 5 years) = 256h or nearly 11 days.

Of course basing the scaling this way is completely ridiculous but no less ridiculous than inferring anything about humans from the original study.
