Apparently if you decide to leave Denmark after 7 years as a tax resident, you may need to pay an exit tax, 'fraflytterskat' in Danish.
I was surprised to hear about this. Have you heard of an exit tax, and is it something to also keep in mind for relocation?

> Exit taxation applies for individuals who have been considered as resident and tax treaty resident in Denmark, who are leaving Denmark with assets, including but not limited to shares, options, bonds, certain pension plans, certain property investments, etc.

> The rules apply to both Danish and foreign assets, shares, investment funds, financial contracts, deposit accounts, etc.

> If comprised by the exit tax rules, the assets, etc. comprised will be considered as realised on the date of departure, and the individual will be liable to pay the Danish tax due on this unrealised gain.

Are they losing contributors, though? I like GitHub/Gitlab/BitBucket as much as most people but choice of version control is going to be secondary to getting your patch into a major web browser in my opinion.

Also looks like they're still planning on using existing review tools:

Although we'll be hosting the repository on GitHub, our contribution workflow will remain unchanged and we will not be accepting Pull Requests at this time

FWIW, Nitter is just an alternative frontend to Twitter/X.
random quirks do. this is not random quirks. it's a systematic and expected issue of underoptimisation caused by releasing a product before it was even slated to be ready. one bad mesh is not the issue, it's never the issue. we're talking of thousands of terrible meshes and a near-total lack of basic optimisations applied at the last stage of development to most games. the manpower was not enough to release within the deadline, likely due to running into a lot of technical difficulties working with unity. instead of going into valve time, they released it anyway, which means that you skipped the entire polish and optimisation part not only for the game itself but for half the engine as well. poor performance was not only expected, i'm certain that every member of the team saw it as the only possible outcome.

>Graham says that the CSIRO modelling showed that at very high levels of wind and solar, a maximum of half a day’s average demand was needed for storage. In some areas of the grid, only around three hours might be needed.

>This is an important point, because some renewable critics say that about a week’s worth of storage is needed

https://reneweconomy.com.au/much-storage-needed-solar-wind-p...

Something a lot of people forget or don't notice is that solar and wind anticorrelate. The model takes this into account and doesn't assume a 100% wind grid. That would require a lot more storage, but isn't realistic.

There will be some differences between Australia and the UK but it's not going to be hours vs. weeks.
"Madness and Civilization" by Foucault is one of the greats even though it's historically inaccurate.

That said we all have multiple roles with no guarantees they won't conflict. How that's resolved by an individual is their identity.

Roles are not a product of authority. It's the other way around. Taking on responsibilities is power. It's silly, but even simple household chores can be seen this way. My parents used to point out that their frustration with a dirty floor, beyond just being "my fault", also meant that I had power over their emotions and a demonstration of how we're all at the mercy of each other. Heavy stuff for an 8 year old. Sure expectations are the other side of it, but that's where bargaining comes in. They were fair to never expect me to be perfect, just good enough.
Ugh, so I was just making some new window screen frames to replace some that were missing, and what a pain that was to measure things out. I had fun dimensions like 21-5/16" all over the place. Now, they certainly didn't need to be accurate to a sixteenth-inch, but being off by even a quarter inch could easily make them not fit.

Too large and you just can't get the screen into the frame, and too small and it can just fall out, or at the very least leave gaps large enough that bugs can get through.

I agree with you that there are many things where we don't have a specific physical need for certain dimensions, so we just pick round numbers. But I think the cases where we do have to conform to some messy existing physical dimensions come up more frequently than you think.
>"has this chain ever broken it's own rules and rolled back transactions at the behest of its benevolent dictator?"

Bitcoin has also done this.

You're referring to the $50m DAO smart contract bug (or "hack") early in 2016, when Ethereum had been running for about a year. The Ethereum blockchain was swiftly rolled back. This was achieved by the majority of Ethereum developers agreeing to create an update to Ethereum software that reversed the hackers transactions specifically, and the great majority of users and miners agreeing to use that updated software. The people behind the DAO were closely connected to the Ethereum developers. Some of them were Ethereum developers. Some of the people who lost money in the DAO were Ethereum developers.

What you're unaware of apparently, is that when Bitcoin had been running for about a year, in 2010, a bug allowed someone to create 184 billion Bitcoins. This effectively made everybody's Bitcoins worthless (or even more worthless!). This event was ALSO swiftly rolled back, just like the Ethereum DAO event, by the same consensus process that I described above.

"Core developers Gavin Andresen and Satoshi Nakamoto were on the case, and the 184 billion BTC transaction was purged from block 74638."

https://news.bitcoin.com/bitcoin-history-part-10-the-184-bil...

Since then, there have been various incidents involving Ethereum and Bitcoin and hacks or smart contract bugs that caused losses of millions or billions. But neither currency has ever done a roll back of this nature again.

For instance. A year or so after Ethereum's DAO debacle, there was another similar event, the Parity bug, which accidentally locked $230m in a smart contract, permanently. The people operating Parity were closely connected to the Ethereum developers, some of them were Ethereum developers. But this time, although the victims pleaded for a roll back, it was never seriously considered.

Domestic abuse is a real thing, I can understand the need for women's shelters.
"developer mindshare" has become one of the most bullshit reasons to use something.
>I've always wondered why they need to be so sexist. Is it so terrible to have women around?

I dunno, maybe ask the woman you quoted:

"While the local men's shed welcomes women, Ms Reardon said there were many women who wanted their own space.

"People like me that would feel intimidated going into what would traditionally be a man's space … want to learn with other women," she said."

The women themselves don't want to be around men because men are so horrible apparently.
> Yeah that's some real hopeful future we're looking at, all so that talentless people can click on a button and get a picture out of it. Such "progress" indeed.

You could say that about photographers too.
The guy is from the U.S evidently, when living abroad and an U.S citizen you pay U.S taxes and taxes abroad which is a hassle, however you can take off your taxes from one or the other from your income (can't remember if it is take off from U.S the other taxes, or take U.S taxes off the other) maybe you can do either one and so you choose which is more beneficial. It would obviously be more beneficial to deduct U.S tax from income before paying EU tax.

All that said I'm not sure about this guy's tax rate, just there are probably wrinkles here that will make things come out weird if not taken into account.

on edit: although his phrasing makes it sound like it is applying to all Danes, which anyway would be weird, why would you care what Danes pay if your concern is figuring out the cost/benefits of you (or someone like you) moving somewhere.
I wonder what's cheaper, self hosting my own ci runner, or the risk of my company's source code being given to a random third party and trusting they won't do anything with it and that they will secure it to make sure nobody else gains access to it.

It's a tough one, I'll let you know what I land on
Your argument appears to be that Americans are too stupid to figure out metric.

Water freezing around 0 is a good indicator that the temperature is cold enough to kill you given that you're mostly water.

If I'm dividing a length of wood in thirds, I use my metric ruler, and I mark out three even cuts. It's crazy how they sold me a 2x4 in feet and it still divided into centimeters.

Yeah, the mental model of Mercurial is way better.

Unfortunately, GitHub got VC funding and caused network effects to kick in.

Git came along with GitHub as a parasite much like C came along as a parasite with Unix.
You could be right about a and b, but there is an option c: The battery is large (2m^3) this means that it’s most practical to put it in the garden, rather than taking up a whole room in the house.
Let me reply item-by-item.

> No, DRM is safeguarding other people's keys on your device.

Correct - in this case, safeguarding mainly means making sure that the nominal owner of the device does not extract the keys.

> There's more applications of trusted computing and TPMs than that

Correct

> one of them is using it to safeguard your own keys.

Questionable - needs a definition of safeguarding. Making sure that the keys cannot be backed up would be a strange definition.
I want the opposite :-) I don't want any remote network to be able to see into my network or down to any other. I frequently run 2-3 vpns at the same time and I really need to isolate them.

invoke is closer to Jeeves in that you define your tasks in a Python file. uPlaybook is an experiment investigating: What if Ansible had Python syntax rather than YAML? So it focuses on templating config files and declaring system state.
Your use of "switched" is leaving out a lot of nuance. Metric is by law preferred for trade and commerce, but what to actually use is left up to each individual and business, and individuals and business don't need to actually care about this law.
I wonder how much the “victory” of git vs mercurial was influenced by having a big name like Linus Torvalds behind it.
ugh. more rent seeking. I'll buy batteries, tyvm.
Lol, only reason I don't mind it is my company's self-hosted instance is extremely snappy compared to SaaS GitHub/Gitlab. But it's getting behind in features. Wish it had multiline comments/suggestions.
I noticed there was no criticism section on Wikipedia (Hackerspaces has that section). Looking at this comment being downvoted.. Can anyone explain why men sheds should not be critisized?
The Danish tax system is also very complicated, and it’s really not possible to boil it down to a percentage. You have to consider a lot of deductions, that is specific to your cicumstances, for instance if you have a mortgage, then you’ll get a deduction based on paid interest, then theres a deduction based on your total income. Then we have both federal and muncipality tax, and of course the “top tax”, which currently applies to all the income above a certain threshold. That means that the effective tax rate for your last earned kroners will be around what 60% i think.
Technically speaking? Go has parallelism by default, I suppose. But if your functions take negligible time to execute and the interval is sufficiently large enough then nothing from a user perspective.
My memory of the 80's was most stuff was fast but power hungry NMOS. People were pushing things like GA, ECL, Silicon on Sapphire as the next thing to replace it.

I might be biased but the company I worked for in the 80's switched to CMOS early[1]. I think the high end guys were ignoring CMOS despite it closing the gap relentlessly. Worse for all the other technologies as integration increased heat became a relentlessly and eventually unsolvable problem. I remember seeing ECL datasheets for simple chips that would draw a half watt.

Notable volume production of CMOS grew and grew while ECL, GA didn't really.

So yes, ECL for new business after 1985 was dumb.

If we redo the calendar then can we rename the months so they make sense. Sept/Oct/Nov/Dec need to be the 7/8/9/10.

Also, can we just switch to the duodecimal system. 12 is a much better base as divisible by 2, 3, 4 and 6. Divisions into 12 are already fairly natural - hours, months, inches in feet, dozens...
My experience is only that that people are individuals, and whether it's pleasant or educational to have them around or not doesn't have anything to do with gender.
Try/Catch Considered Harmful
Where are these remote assistant human drivers located (country), and how have they been screened for temporarily “driving” vehicles in those cities (do these humans have American licenses? ). How is all this regulated?

Basically, I am curious if these remote assistant drivers are located in foreign nations without American licenses. And if so, how did you get them cleared to be able to “drive” cars on Americas roads?

Thanks

Ps: I took a cruise once in Austin and it needed remote assistance.
I'm a huge critic of git, but I think it won out on merits. Git was used by the Linux kernel, and therefore from the beginning scaled better to much larger projects than other DVCS systems.
With such a critical activity that has the potential to destroy lives, "a bug" is not a good enough excuse. Hire a human to override the bug driven decision. These aren't bugs but conscious decisions taken by each bank because the fallout is on few enough customers that they don't need to worry. I've worked with/in enough banks to know someone intentionally drew a line and everyone who happens to fall under it can just suck it up.
120K people live in the city of Aalborg. And I refuse to believe that you can buy a house, at least one that doesn't require a significant amount of renovations for 260K DKK.
I think it depends a lot from where one is moving from. I'd say moving from the Bay Area is actually a quality of life downgrade given the weather and tech salaries in general. The great thing about the US is opportunities. In Denmark, you'd be hard pressed to find your next move unless you live close to Copenhagen/Aarhus etc.
I say this as someone who moved from India and was in a fairly high paid job in India - I find the cost of various things about 3 times the cost of the same thing in India and guess how much has my salary increased ? Exactly 3 times. Yes, the quality of life has changed, but I don't really save anymore than I used to back in India. And with the way the taxes are structured, it can be a stretch to live as a single income family. It's no surprise that Denmark has among the highest percentages of dual income households - it is simply difficult to live on a single income.
Would I change anything ? Maybe, maybe not. It's a great country to raise kids, the quality of life is amazing, workplace stress in most workplaces is non existent, one has great autonomy and the society is built on trust - It's amazing how that can change your life - the US should try it :) But, if you're a high flying career oriented individual, Denmark isn't for you since the qualities needed for that kind of career, are actively frowned upon in Denmark compared to the US or even Germany.
The problem is that rice is usually grown in wet rice agriculture, where the paddy is flooded to prevent weeds from growing. Microbes in the water will decompose decaying plant matter, producing methane, a potent greenhouse gas [1].

I spent more than a decade trying to find some place with Kung Pao chicken, impossible - it showed up in one of the street food places a couple years ago. It wasn't especially impressive.

Try to find a decent burrito, or anything to compare with any of the Mexican restaurants you can get in even the worst parts of the U.S. It's depressing!

And if you get some Mexican food in Denmark, or anything spicy really, it is an uphill fight to get it to be really spicy.

Barbecue sucks here.

This is just from U.S perspective, from the Italian perspectives I'm familiar with, almost all Italian restaurants here should be closed down.

I mean it is a lot better than it was 20 years ago, but on the other hand comparing with SF of 20 years ago - it still has a way to go.

And then as was remarked, it is super expensive even to eat something lousy.
name= for name=name?

Another major miss-step in recent python syntax evolution, even worse than the worst perl5 obscurities.

Let me address that. I do agree with you that there is a difference, but the context matters.

In this case, Johnny is making these fakes with the faces of a bunch of the girls at school. Everyone knows they are fake. So in this sense, they are just the stick figure drawing. Johnny is not seriously trying to impugn the reputation of Belle. He is name calling in order to get a rise of out her for the amusement of him and his friends.

It's wrong, it's mean, it's immature, and it should be punished, but it's very different from the following scenario, which is what I believe you are getting at.

Let's say we have a woman, Jane, and she is engaged to her fiance Fred. Johnny generates fake nudes of Jane, and then he tells Fred, untruthfully, that Jane is unfaithful and that he slept with her last week... in fact she's been been begging for it and sending him nudes for months. Don't believe me? Here Fred, look for yourself...

What is the difference between these two scenarios? It's like the difference between using a fake police badge or fake gun as a novelty, and using a fake police badge or fake gun to commit a crime. In the first scenario with Belle, nobody believes the nudes are real. They are a novelty. Johnny is being very mean and hurtful, but he's not crossed the line into slander. In the second scenario with Jane, the nudes are presented as real. They aren't novelties in this context, they are forgeries which have been created for the purpose of damaging Jane's reputation.

I can come up with any number of other scenarios involving Johnny, Jane, and Fred that amount to the same thing that don't involve deep fakes or AI. I could also come up with tons of other ways to use generated images that are not sexual in nature as an element of committing crimes.

Think about how we currently deal with fake things that are not new. If I pull a fake gun on you, presenting it to you as though it is real, and threaten you with it in order to compel you to hand over you wallet, then I have committed armed robbery, which is far more serious than regular unarmed robbery. That the gun is not real does not matter, it could be just my finger poking you in the back and I told you it's a gun. My expectation of your belief that it is real is enough to make it real in the criminal law sense.

So yes, deep fakes can be and will be used in ways that lead to civil or even criminal liability, but so can gun shaped objects, costumes, powerpoint presentations, screenshots, handwritten letters, and countless other things. We aren't banning or restricting any of those things. So let's not be stupid and entertain this moral panic over generated images.
