Ah it's my company's operating handbook not our product docs or marketing pages. Didn't expect to see this here so fast after we rewrote it recently!

Regardless, I've made a PR to tighten up one of the titles that is confusing here, waiting on build :) https://github.com/PostHog/posthog.com/pull/6862
Capital gains is deferred every year that you don’t sell an asset, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t an obligation. The only way to avoid it in the US is to die at which point your beneficiaries get to enjoy a tax loophole.

If renouncing citizenship would get you out of that obligation people would do so regularly as a tax break then reapply.
Just be aware that some of these freebies might cost you more in the long run. I remember signing up to mongoHQ/Compose.io when we started, because they had a nice 1800USD credit.

Later on while using it, they just said emm you got enough out of it, time to charge you 18USD per GB per month, starting today.

It was quite painful to migrate down the line, but you could say we deserved it.
We went "gotta catch them all" on all the free shit in the early days.
> Even in the first page of the documentation "No need to vectorize code for performance; devectorized code is fast" is some kind of category error redefinition of how programming languages work in my opinion.

Can you elaborate a bit? I don't really get what you are trying to say.
Maybe they should tax tires (perhaps by the amount and type of wear products). The more tires you wear through, the more tax you pay.
> make 'data' types strict by default and 'codata' types lazy by default

Coq has been doing exactly this for over a decade...
Yes, but you wouldn’t be double paying taxes. If the taxes of the country you are residing in is low, then it would be rounded up to US taxes’ rate. There’s also the foreign earned income exclusion which would retain the lower tax rate up to a certain amount (~$105k). If the tax rate of the country you are residing in is higher, then you wouldn’t have to pay Us taxes.
It's actually the reason I applied about a month ago. The amount of thought and consideration was really impressive to me.
Yes, there's a websocket that contains all bing chat communication.
Or keep a green card for less than 8 of the 15 years preceding abandonment. This is the crux of my argument: it feels punitive to impose the tax only on people who spend a long time in the US.
Also only 1 of 2 countries that could go and collect the tax.

> BMW says that the i5 is delivered to customers with a carbon footprint of 17 tons of CO2 equivalent.

I’m glad to see this kind of information. But the figure is meaningless without comparison to other ICE and EVs and it’s hard to trust without an independent (and impartial) verification.
Is it unfair if they're both scummy companies with infinitely deep pockets? Micro$oft just doesn't pay as much as Google does to make Google the default search, but knowing M$, they'd happily do the same shit if it made sense for them.

If DDG or Kagi were the ones complaining here, then that makes sense because indeed their pockets don't run as deep as Google's or M$'s and that's unfair, but M$ complaining just sounds like the one comically evil megacorp taking advantage of the situation to get the other comically evil megacorp in trouble for shit they're doing themselves on a smaller scale.
One area they could gain an advantage over Google is by downgrading sites with advertising on them. Google won't do that because it would hurt their bottom line even though they know much of their results are garbage.

>There needs to be a transformational change to get people to switch

All they need to do is change the default search engine in the next version of iOS. As long as the results don't suck that would probably be enough of a leg up.
Sometimes I muse that it's the belief of the experimenters themselves that can briefly coerce the world into behaving in a certain way... something quantum many worlds... something something. :)

I'm biased because Aaron is my brother. But I believe in his vision.

He's always been an entrepreneur, who figures he can learn anything when he gets to it. Given that he learns in hyperfocus, he's generally been right. He figures it takes him about three weeks to learn anything from the basics of a new language, to a new job skill. Sometimes he's much faster. For example I taught him the basics of Calculus in about half an hour. That included the chain rule, max/min problems, and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. 30 minutes.

He's never avoided a challenge. If it needs doing, he does it. The biggest thing he took on previously was about 15 years ago. That was when he put together the largest alliance of law firms ever seen in China.

This is bigger. Science has re-evaluated the importance of breath. He sees how many lives will be improved or saved, and wants to speed up how quickly it impacts our world.

When he told me what he was doing, it sounded crazy. Even by his standards. Build a technology stack to give actionable information on people's breathing? He didn't have a tech background. In fact I was the only person he KNEW in tech!

But I didn't get in his way. He charged into learning the way he always has. I answered any questions he had for me on anything from database design, to managing software developers. I knew he learned fast, but he's been going faster than I remembered.

So now he has a working prototype. I've worn it. I wish this existed many years ago when I first wanted my asthma diagnosed, and my doctor didn't believe I had it. I can see many other points in my life when I could have used this. And I believe that he now knows what he needs to bring the rest of his vision home.

Some accidental Americans may not even have known they owe capital gains tax. Not every jurisdiction taxes capital gains, and many have differing rules. It can be quite shocking to get a tax bill from a place you’ve never lived!
A far simpler explanation is that people who don't eat enough and have low blood sugar can end up feeling depressed, and Ozempic makes it easy to accidentally not eat enough

I mean Bing still sucks compared to Google. I keep giving it a chance, but it is just nowhere as good. Make it better, and people might use Google less?
Apparently E Ink managed to move four different types of colored particles (white, cyan, magenta, yellow) through the fluid inside the pixels:

https://www.ineltek.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/ACeP-How-...

The cyan, magenta and yellow pigments are transparent like in inkjet printers. They are used to subtractively mix red, green, blue and black. The white particles are not transparent, so they block the rest when they are on top. So E Ink is able to create the eight primary colors:

https://technewsspace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/1681215...

I'm not sure whether they are able to create other colors inside a pixel, but these eight are enough to create full color displays with dithering. But the problem seems to be the time required for separating the pigments. 12 seconds is absurdly long for a full refresh. I think the electrophoresis screen technology is fundamentally a dead end here. Moving solid particles in a fluid introduces drag, which will always be slow.

I thought the second generation "SMI" Mirasol screen technology by Qualcomm looked a lot more promising. It doesn't require subpixels and probably would have been fast like the first generation. Here is a video from 2014:

https://youtube.com/watch?v=VMDaJB2y4vc

However, Qualcomm stopped investing in developing the technology shortly after it was shown. It would have worked by moving solids (MEMS) through the air instead of through a fluid, which doesn't introduce the drag problem present in E Ink's electrophoresis displays.
Maybe the exact match is in metadata or in hyperlink anchors pointing to the page. More in general, each search will hit thousands of machines and there will be always approximate behavior. It's not just about what you are searching and how, but also what others are searching. The most deterministic aspect of it all might be the latency budgets on the backends and indices. You could tweak those, but then costs, failures and abandonment rates would go up, too.
OK and then how long for the signature updates to proliferate to clients? This is not an easy problem. Even with your suggested solution:

1. You are up to 1-2 hours behind on every update

2. If your job fails for whatever reason you're now N hours behind until an engineer fixes it.

3. Are you going to write one of these jobs for literally every good binary?

4. What happens if TOR changes any aspect of how it's packaged? Today it's a tar, tomorrow it could be a zip.
I dislike this "negotiate by brinkmanship" approach intensely. Musk did it to landlords, suppliers of goods and service, lawyers.

It's not valid business practice. Wework should be put in the hands of an official receiver.

The whole "stick it to the man" vibe of one class of capitalist being a parasite on another kind of capitalist, and in the end it's shareholders and tax payers who suffer.
Did you read the article? She runs one of the biggest bookclubs in Hungary. That comment seems a little patronising. :)

I do not mean that vinyl is capable of greater dynamic range then digital. Of course not.
That’s how Canada handles people who become non-residents.

Mark-to-market on all assets and tax as per normal capital gains.

And Canada doesn’t have exceptions like the US (if your assets are <$2M, $600,000 deduction on any value before taxes are applied, etc).
I know it's something that is very frowned upon publicly give the emotional response, but I honestly put infanticide at one step below murder, and I'm sorry that high emotions make any discussion futile.

It's still atrocious, but given how easy negligence could lead to death and how an infant is not really a person in my eyes, I'd consider a special category for it.
Well that is far on a limb. I just googled Ozempic sales, seeing they did 50,000,000,000 DKK sales in Q1 '23 for Novo Nordisk, the manufacturer. Also 'blockbuster' and Ozempic are often used in one phrase. It all suggests a lot of pills are being sold. IMO it is almost certain statistically insignificant.
Agreed, also see https://www.sustainabilitybynumbers.com/p/weighty-issue-of-e... for more
I remember when I discovered the Bad Voltage podcast he was a co host. I knew nothing about him at the time, but I remember thinking good Lord why is this guy allways a contrarian asshole. Since then he's left the podcast and it got so much better and I've learned who he is and decided I really don't like the guy.
Another benefit of pulsing light really fast is that you can more easily perform studies of really delicate things (eg proteins) because you effectively have higher control over the amount of energy you're pouring into the sample. That isn't directly what they were working on here, but a similar extremely high frequency pulsing is one of the things that makes free-electron lasers 'next generation' compared to synchrotrons.
The main way that Microsoft has been harmed by Google's actions is that they can no longer pay companies like mobile phone networks to lock search on their devices to Bing and prevent users from changing it, because Google outbid them. Google haven't even blocked users from changing their search engine like Microsoft did because their product is good enough that they don't need to. I think what Microsoft are hoping for is that Google will be legally barred from bidding against them so that they can go back to using this tactic unchallenged.
You have a social contract signed by you. Worry about you. The government gets to worry about harm to all of society from loss of privacy.

Civilians are not supposed to worry about future children as they live their lives with abuse. They get too emotional.
Some countries don’t allow dual citizenship. Japan might be one. I know someone who had to give up their citizenship to be able to live with family when they turned 18. What you suggest would be cruel and provide little value.
Yes, but it doesn't catch the equivalent of people like me, who are US citizens through birth, but with no other ties to the country.

Yet I therefore still have to navigate the nightmare that is their paper based (and "refund/allowance" obsessed) tax system, despite not having resided in the US since the age of 3.

For example, it's not enough for me to simply earn less than the "foreign income tax allowance".

Instead I need to calculate the tax I would owe on one form, calculate the deduction to that tax on a different form, then write the sum from one form on to the other form (god help if you make an error transcribing that number).

The US tax form is full of things like "Add the numbers in 11a through 11g together and deduct this number from the number in 13 and write it down in 15".

It feels utterly hostile, as if it's trying to catch the person out, instead of guiding them to the accurate number.
Agree on the first part, but I think actually this is an argument for breaking them up along those lines.

I've often said that the "breaking up" of Google that makes the most sense is to split the crawling/indexing service from the rest of the company. Similar to the way telecoms companies were forced -- in some countries -- to open up access to e.g. DSL infrastructure.
If you are running a custom rom on Lineage or some other version of android, check out Newpipe on Fdroid. I've installed it for normy android users and they stopped using the normal youtube front end. It's awesome.
Wear leveling RAM would be trivial with any MMU from the last 40 years. You can just fault on the write and do your wear leveling in the fault handler. This is how virtual memory already works.
Is Google not on the bleeding edge of research into LLMs? Are they not investing billions into cloud? Google research has quantum computers, and is investing in self driving cars, healthcare, and god knows what else.
True, but you either get a generous allowance tax free or tax credit for any taxes paid in a foreign country.

The vast, vast majority pay $0.
Why should the US entertain you in that case?
Yes, but heavy vehicles also cause wear to roads. I like your idea though because the tax depends on use.
On the other hand, exit taxes based on residency rather than citizenship are common. When you leave Canada, there will be a „deemed disposition“ that means the cra will assume all your assets (except real estate) were sold and immediately bought, so u need to pay taxes on the delta of market and book value.

Exiting Germany is similar, except they don’t tax stock of public companies when exiting, and they also allow ppl who only moved to Germany some years (up to seven?) ago to exit unscathed.

One would hope that the book value of your assets in the new country matches the exit value when leaving, otherwise you may get double taxed.

Most places have tax systems based on residence though.
> This thing has happened multiple times before with removable batteries, headphone jacks, memory cards, etc. I care about having a headphone jack a little bit, but there is literally no new phone coming out with that feature now. You can still get some, but not without major degradation in areas like CPU/GPU, battery, screen, cameras, etc.

I think the whole Sony Xperia line has headphone jacks. For example, their latest one the Xperia 5 V: https://www.sony.co.uk/smartphones/products/xperia-5m5
> I am sure that the MS antimalware team is having a bad day and not acting in bad faith.

It is not the first time they do this.
You pay income tax every year. Capital gains was accrued but the IRS defers taxing that as a tax break allowing you to compound interest on money you owe.

When you leave they want all accounts to zero out which seems eminently reasonable.
And every person that tried to make a FOSS one got a cease & desist. This sort of accessibility & developer hostility should clue in projects as to why they should choose a better option.
>More than search, I wish Apple would compete with Google Workspace.

One of the things I like about the Apple ecosystem is that it doesn't cater to enterprise customers very much. Their focus is on what the individual wants rather than what the CTO of some huge corporation needs as is the case with Microsoft.
Respectfully that's not the argument I'm making. I don't think taxing people when their obligations end is inherently wrong. I think the choice to apply it only to people with 'stronger/longer term connections' to America is meant to disproportionately disincentivize renunciation in the same way that a high fixed fee does/did.

[edit] It's mostly problematic for people who find themselves subjects of the IRS, being born abroad for instance - and they may never have even realized their obligations. They are stuck with paying the IRS forever or renouncing and paying capital gains tax on all their assets. Meanwhile, someone who lives in the US for 8 years as an LPR and decides to leave is free to go after filing an I-407 and picking up their 1040-C sailing permit. The whole taxation on the basis of citizenship instead of residency is fundamentally unfair and broken IMO.
I would really love to have an e-ink based smart home monitor and dynamic switches. That would be a game changer for me. At night my current setup blinds me for a few seconds, even on the lowest setting which is barley readible at daylight.
Never had an issue with my old palm and it's passive background light.
I've re-read the article and couldn't find anything that would suggest the requirement is fake, as in, the juice is actually not needed.

> One important condition is that the company has the hallowed tradition of starting the day’s event at 7 in the morning, with a toast to success, using Orange Juice.

So it's a hypothetical situation, in which the company really needs the juice. In reality, you probably need something else:

> It helps if people come up with a question or a set of questions that serve the equivalent of the Orange Juice Test question.

> If you are a technical manager, it can be as simple as ‘ How do you program feature X or Y ?’

Isolate a hard part of what you need, and ask about the cost of it - that's how I understood the article.
I have mixed feelings on this.

On the one hand, it's still playing within the legal rules of the business system. And one might expect sophisticated lenders to account for this possibility in their contracts and financial terms. I.e., to price in this risk.

On the other hand, it's at odds with my intuitive notion of honorable conduct. On a personal level, I see obligations to others as carrying moral weight.

Thanks Ben, your advice to me on everything from debugging tactics to the emotional profile of coders has been very helpful.
This is a hilariously perverse incentive for governments, since worse roads now mean better revenue and saving the cost of maintenance.
You can rerubber tires though. It is done alot on truck tires.

Unless the tax is low people will just apply rubber.
Being vaguely related doesn't make an equivalence true
Indeed, the comment on code formatter is weird.

The point of formatters is exactly to maximize the occurrence of patterns. And the added value compared to humans is that you know for sure there will be no mistake (or at least much much less), and so this is something you can rely on.

The main complaint is that formatters do not (alwaysà follow your favorite pattern. But I much prefer to learn the many patterns that the formatter gives to me for free, than to have to fight to have mine adopted.
That sounds very cruel to the many accidental Americans out there, should the US have banned Boris Johnson [1] from ever entering the US just because of his place of birth? The more intelligent option for all countries would be to make citizenship performance based, if you live and contribute to a certain society, you ought to be considered part of it instead of current system of nonsense.
