To this day, Fulda Gap Defense is a part of US military practice in Europe. Most people that work for a NATO flagged unit practice this also.

> but don't think that the countries that were beind the iron curtain should have been allowed to join nato?

First of all, US leaders from the past have made numerous promises not to extend NATO that far East.

When you take what was intended to be a defensive alliance and extend it right up to a potential enemy's doorstep, inside their missile defense early warning shield, when you foment a number of color revolutions in another country's sphere of influence (Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Georgia, etc), and threaten their sphere of control, you are not just on the path to war, you are provoking it.
Obviously there are limits to state co-payments and towns also have expenses other than schools--although schools tend to be the majority from property taxes. But, in general, yes I think it's healthy to have significant local revenue pay for local costs. I really don't want the federal government to be paying for all local elementary and high school education.
It's essentially the same crowd moving from one hustle to another. There's a new tech buzzword every few years, and it's easy to raise money from clueless investors who don't want to miss out. Remember "big data"? Or the "Uber for XYZ" phase?

Also, can you tell me where, just where, ANY Democrat or independent is propounding a Big Lie, that an election was illegitimate, when such claims were litigated and DENIED=LOST in over 60 state and federal courts of law - ZERO courts upheld ANY allegation, yet almost every R and an entire RW mediz circus propounds this Big Lie about who won the election. Where is ANY Dem doing such a thing?

Moreover this behavior extends to denying that the violent January 6h insurrection was "merely tourists". Again, nearly every R and an entire RW media circus is propounding such lies. Yet there is zero equivalece anywhere else on the rest of today's political spectrum.

Calling our "whataboutism" is NOT simply complaining that you are complaining that Ds do similar stuff. It is that you attempt to deflect the conversation by calling out DIFFERENT, IRRELEVANT faults. Of course anyone can find faults, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. Clever of you to try to say that claims of "whataboutism" are merely complaining about getting called out for the same thing, but it is not the case. j

I note that you have claimed only that "Ds also do bad stuff", never acknoweledged any of the the wholesale list of outright R moves to authoritarianism, and never actually cited anything remotely similar to R authoritarian actions. Show some actual equivalence or you are merely running interference for actual authoritarianism.

If there is some ACTUAL meaningful (and plausible, not merely some powerless loon saying nonsense) moves by Ds towards real authoritarianism — undermining independence of branches of govt, the press, the academy, religions, industry, or bringing religion into govt — I'm all ears. But I've heard nothing but a small complaint about one state maybe overreaching on gun restrictions.

Seriously, I'm all about authoritarianism vs democracy, but I need real evidence.
I do not see the argument as specious. You might be lacking sufficient exposure to the topic.

I think that is a solved problem. The legal profession is so old, and they are part of a system, that I would bet that most reliable solicitors have a continuity plan for their clients’ wills and other long terms legal paperwork.
Under-reported by who? Virtually everyone I know has been watching the Fed / FFR and the rate-hike news because it affects things like long-term treasuries very significantly.

The FFR going from 0% to 4.5% over the last year is probably the biggest, most important (and definitely well reported) piece of news... and constantly makes front-page material on most financial newspapers I've been reading.

The idea that this is somehow "underreported" is... odd... to me. The amount of commentary on rising interest rates, federal fund rates, hawks in the Fed, inverted yield curves and more suggests that the public is hyper-aware of this and the implications.

Some are probably upset with it because they want Silvergate's liqudiation to be caused by crypto, and not super-safe US Treasurys. Turns out Silvergate's bitcoin loans are just fine, and it was the Treasurys that fucked them up.

Others are probably upset with it because Silvergate had the option to hold cash as cash, or cash as one-month T-bills, and if they had done that, they wouldn't have had to liquidate.

But instead they locked it up in much longer dated bonds to grab a little extra yield, and got burned when interest rates increased.

It doesn't matter that you have an AI bot summarizing and answering questions about the search results if your search results are worthless anyway.

I saw that there were passport documents for safety in the past, like you mentioned. I've also heard of documents called passports being used to grant foreigners permission to conduct commerce, and others allowing locals to move between provinces within a country.

I wonder about borders, too. I wonder when they started guarding borders like they do today. I know there were places with minimal border control, like the U.S. before the world wars. Were there places a hundred years ago and earlier where boarders were guarded like they are today? Did they want to keep the serfs in place? Did rulers care about peasants moving back and forth? Weren't boarders usually less populated areas, with nobody keeping track of crossings? Or are modern borders, imperfect as they are, only possible at this time due to modern governments and the military resources they can dedicate to such things?

My guess is that modern borders and modern passports came about around the same time. There's no sense in requiring documentation for every person crossing a border unless a country has the wherewithal to enforce that rule.

This matches my (day job) experience.

My greatest practical frustration from this is the difficulty of trying to claw back performance when it becomes important. I'd like more ways to say "from this point on, none of X, Y, or Z will change", and get some performance guarantees in return. For example, we have some code that dynamically generates a whole lot of classes from protobuf definitions. It's bad enough that it takes nearly a minute just to load an run all that code, but even after that I'm paying the cost of assuming that any of those definitions might change at any moment. So I have awful load times, and awful runtime performance.

I guess what I'm asking is: do you see a future where there is more explicit control afforded to people who want to pick their own tradeoffs without resorting to writing everything performance-sensitive in extensions written in C/Rust/whatever?

I love programming, but the people and this industry is a whole other beast.

I have given 20+ years of my life trying to make a living for my family.

It has provided me an income but it came at a cost way more than I ever imagined.

I know I'm not alone in feeling this way.

I would like to start over, but I have no background or time left to start over with.

The idea of burning it all down just to start all over again is painful, but not as painful as it has been working in tech.

What success stories of leaving the tech industry can you all provide?

I guess for the ones who really got out they probably will never even see this.

I know if I had I would not be here reading any of this.

And to swing elections. Notice the completely different treatment of "Dreamers" (illegal immigrants) to that of legal children of immigrants (especially Indians). The former are given special status and can stay in America forever, the later are to be deported on their 21st birthday unless they manage to secure a visa. So much for following the rules...

> Why would a publicly and a privately traded company react fundamentally different to the economy?

For one, selling shares in a private company is much harder (if not impossible, barring buybacks), so that's why valuations are relatively stable (and ideally only go up, until an IPO). So by definition, private equity is less volatile than the public markets.

Secondly, private investments are a fairly well-studied hedge against inflation (due to return horizons being relatively low and return multipliers being relatively high) and also do well during, and immediately after, a recessionary period (where public markets generally do poorly).

(But maybe I misspoke, they are both, of course, affected by macro factors, but the effects are probably much more attenuated in private markets.)
California's local governments have hardly been gutted. They mostly operate like local governments in every other state. Public school spending per pupil is above the national average.

The situation prior to Proposition 13 was also a fiasco with rapid increases in wasteful government spending. I would be happy to vote for reasonable reforms but only if they keep effective spending caps in place.
The NVIDIA Jetson boards are popular, but even with a full desktop processor and state of the art GPU, you can easily down them in data from a LIDAR sensor or a few cameras. Especially since robots may also need fast response times.

There is another reply to your comment that shares a lot of what I have experienced. You have so many pieces of code that need to run and a good handful of them are working on something like LIDAR point clouds with a million 3D points in them, plus some cameras running several different image recognition and segmentation algorithms, and you want to have fast cycle times, it just all adds up. Every serious robot I have ever worked on is maxing out its system, even ones at Google X with a full desktop CPU, a high end NVIDIA graphics card, and a couple secondary ARM CPUs.

The price is exactly where it belongs without Broadcom subsidizing things so they can be given away.

If it's overpriced (relative to payouts) and the funds get returned to the population at large (through public services and mitigation of indirect damage caused by drivers) then that sounds like a very effective way to get drivers to pay for their externalized costs (in a way that other countries' privatized, profit-limited insurance schemes doesn't afford).

My state's legislators are upset about the content of what appears on TikTok. While they complain about "security" in public, when they are in the chambers talking with other legislators, their dialog changes to them being offended at "youth today" posting content that makes them look bad.

Our state's legislation bans all traffic to TikTok on state networks - such as watching the videos via browser. This seems to be a non-issue until you realize that libraries, public schools and state universities are affected by this legislation.

Ask HN: Personal Finance Management
Hi,

I've been using mint.com for a long time but I've always been uncomfortable with how much information they're collecting on my spending habits.

Tried Microsoft Money last year (an Excel add-in) which -while pretty basic- did its job, but they're unfortunately deprecating that :(. I know there are other paid options (like YNAB) which use the same backend as MS Money (plaid), but I'd much prefer an open source / self hosted solution (like Firefly III) if it supported at least some automatic transaction downloads (Fidelity, Citi, etc.).

I've explored setting up a dedicated email address and using the credit card's alert functionality to send an email for every transaction (> $0.01) but that's finicky as banks change their email format often and it also doesn't always work as advertised.

What other options are available / what do you use?

Thanks!
Woah. Ok dude, I'll try to help you out here, but be advised that I am not a super duper expert on these things. Just a rando on HN.

Most of my evidence here is fueled by what I've been seeing and hearing via the internet, so take it with a grain of salt. I'm, thankfully, not in theater. That said, these sources do seem to be 'experts' of some sort or another behind their own fog of war:

Go ahead and look in the older work if you're curious to find more out about the logistical mountain that RF is facing. The concrete thing, though a bit curious, does seem to bear out in photos of their ammo dumps and RF's inability to cure a pad before rebar is stolen (WaPo, NYT, and ChrisO_wiki are good on this issue). Gravel isn't going to work for such repeated use in wet conditions. To move those loads you'd need very large tires to distribute the weight, something like a JCB. Something that RF also seems to be without. Like, they really do seem to be that corrupt and incompetent.

Replying to myself because it's too late to edit my post.

I thought this was worth mentioning -- the burglar beelined for the closet in one of the bedrooms. I mentioned to the cop that I found that strange, as if he was looking for something specific.

The cop said it's not strange at all, that burglars usually do that because people tend to keep their really valuable stuff in their bedrooms. The lesson I took from that is don't keep your really valuable stuff in your bedroom.

> It’s getting clear in cities like Ithaca that landlords pass high property taxes onto tenants quite directly.

Most landlords are interested in making a profit from renting. Therefore the rent the landlord demands will be set to a monthly amount such that they can pay the costs of maintaining the property, which includes paying real-estate taxes to the local government, and still make some profit.

So yes, renters are "paying the property tax", and always have been, they just do not see "property tax" as an itemized line item in their monthly rent amount.
