You don't know that they haven't faced abuse like this before, you're just assuming this is the first/only case, maybe this is just the final straw.

But that's also moot - people don't have a right to abuse others, people have a right to not be subjected to this kind of abuse.

If a person is not allowed to halt a project when they receive abuse, then you're saying that they are required to accept abuse as part of their (typically) unpaid labor. There is a huge difference between "I am willing to put up with this" and "You are required to put up with this". You are saying that because the former applies to you, that therefore the latter applies to everyone.

I get that this is the long term outcome of the "don't feed the trolls" concept, which is tacitly the message "being a troll is a-ok", which has led people like this ass to think that just because they can send this kind of shit, that it's ok to.
Kinda feels like you could’ve done more of a cursory glance to see what functionality was actually being talked about before going for the “Android already does this!!” comment.
I'm engaging because it's an interesting question, but it's also a really strange question. Firstly, because you're effectively looking for tax advice in every country simultaneously - this is the domain of experts whose usual clients are people who've already made the money, not those at the beginning of a entrepreneurial career.

The difference between tax levels between countries can be tens of percentage points. But the difference between the productivity of a competent manager-owner and an incompetent one can be hundreds of percentage points! Half of all companies fail within three years of starting. Losing your company is like having a tax rate of 100%! With a masters education in computer science, why not study for another masters degree or doctorate in business? That sounds like a much better investment than moving across the world in order to optimize your future tax situation. Countries can't take away your education, but they can certainly change taxes.

Also, you've not given any hints as to what you enjoy in life. You clearly have preferences - you said you prefer cold weather - but if you're in business, say, for the startup culture, you probably won't get much of a thrill on a pacific island, even if (on paper) it might be the cheapest place in which to start an internet business.

Finally, does your family come into your business in any way? If you aspire to be the manager of a business that will one day pass to your heirs, you'd want to also consider your children's opportunities - availability and cost of education, for instance.
Huh. Maybe I had a bad power supply, then. Interesting.

This is compellingly saying that I was too hasty in assuming the low voltage warnings were from the 18W supply topping out. Thank you for this.
Awesome stuff, I think it’s a super useful tool you’ve built and I’ll definitely be using it, in my next project most likely. I’ll check out those links :) cheers
I don't think slavery was ever the dominant form for doing agriculture, except in some weird outliers such as Sparta. Because the vast majority of people were involved in agriculture in pre-modern societies. If almost everyone is a slave, keeping the slaves in check must be the primary job for most free people. Otherwise the slaves will revolt and overthrow the system. And if your society is little more than an oppressive machine designed to keep the slaves in check, you can't expect much long-term success.
Firstly, EV subsidies are irrespective of manufacturer. The government is not hand picking a corporation to receive them all.

Secondly, I think you are vastly underrating the difference in "structure". If I was to pay you $100 an hour and give you a company credit card to go buy lunch, that's a much different proposition than asking you to go buy me lunch on the promise that I will reimburse you later. Corporations with a direct government investment are always going to have market advantage beyond just the price difference over companies that have to seek debt or investors.

Here's an HBR writeup on Steel subsidies, specifically relating to the government paying the energy costs: https://hbr.org/2008/06/subsidies-and-the-china-price

Here's an article about the battery glut - there is 4x as much capacity planned as there is estimated forecast since the government guarantees their debt: https://www.ft.com/content/b6038e51-7b5b-4f97-a5da-9202e7156...

This does not even begin to cover how the party provides political protections for the executives of these companies, or how the government aids these companies in stealing intellectual properties from trading partners.
(Disclaimer: I am not an expert) In my humble opinion, because the black hole calculations and other important proven scientific equations must have taken into account the age of stars, the age of a star could be imprecise but not outright wrong.
> If it is physically and financially possible to make your product safer, you do it, without any thought to how much a life is worth.

A cursory glance at how literally any product is designed will tell you that this is not true.

All engineering is fundamentally compromise between utility functions and cost functions (where cost is monetary, or weight, or size, or poor usability, ugliness etc). There's always a balance point somewhere. It may be the cost/benefit functions to the user differ from those of the manufacturer, and again to regulators, so the product appears out-of-balance to one or the other, but a meta-balance was struck somewhere.

If every light switch was a 2-foot, 200kg cube with a titanium shell filled with monitoring electronics running on lockstepped processors, fire suppression and potting compound, and was tested individually for a year before sale, it's still not as safe as one with six grounding points (in case the first 5 fail) and triple-thick gold plating on the contacts. You have to stop somewhere.
I am not making any assumption about there being big standing armies. I am just trying to explain to you the basic principle that the economy is the deciding factor that governs everything else. I really just try to explain basic economic stuff.

History doesn't go perfectly linearly. There is always exceptions for every rule. You need to understand the broad stroke and main driving forces before going into the small.

The bigger picture is: Slave holding society -> feudalism -> capitalism

Not everywhere in the world and sometimes steps get skipped but that is the general tendency observed.

Edit: Removed a unnecessary sentence that was not very polite. Sorry about that.

No time* to try it unfortunately :( Sounds great, though, and Mac just kicks the pants of every other platform on local inference thanks to Metal, I imagine MLX must extend that lead to the point Qualcomm/Google has to a serious investment in open source acceleration. Cheapest iPhone from 2022 kicks the most expensive Android from 2023 (Pixel Fold) around the block, 2x on inference. 12 tkns/s vs. 6/s.

* it sounded like a great idea to do an OpenAI LLM x search app. Then it sounded like a great idea to add embeddings locally for privacy (thus, ONNX). Then it sounded like a great idea to do a local LLM (thus, llama.cpp). Then it sounded like a great idea to differentiate by being on all platforms, supported equally. Really taxing. Think I went too far this time. It works but, jeez, the workload...hopefully, after release, it turns out maintenance load is relatively low

There were a few other agent demos around 2017-2020ish that also were faked. It's poisoned the well for me at this point so I just have to wait and see
How do you proceed to use it this way ? Did you have to write custom code to call the API with your codebase ? Can you give some example questions for which the LLM gave you useful insights and/or made you save time ?
There is a serious problem with that site's analysis. The meta cited on statin death prevention covered an average trial length of 3.74 years per person. That means they can give you, at best, your 3-4 year probability of having a fatal heart attack. For most age cohorts, that probability is very near 0 no matter what you do, so no intervention whatsoever can prevent cardiac event death by this metric. But this metric isn't what people care about. They're not trying to reduce the risk of having a heart attack in the next few years. They're trying to reduce the risk of ever having a heart attack.

Note this is exactly why we actually use the studies of people with prior cardiovascular disease that this meta excludes. Those people are sufficiently likely to actually have another heart attack within the time horizon of the study that you can get useful data!

The other option is to only conduct 60 year trials. It should be obvious why that isn't a viable option.
Hopefully its not wasted on someone replacing Google Talk, Hangouts, Allo and whatever else is left.
Your last quote also reminds me this may be true for everything else, especially our diets.

Technology has leapfrogged nature and our consumption patterns have not caught up to modern abundance. Scott Galloway recently mentioned this in his OMR speech and speculated that GLP1 drugs (which actually help addiction) will assist in bringing our biological impulses more inline with current reality.

Similarly, -itis vs. -osis.

-itis means the part of the body is swollen, while -osis means the part of the body is damaged.

I found this out back in 2012, when I had a very nasty case of tendonitis in one of my feet, and I found out that the vast majority of cases of tendonitis should be called tendinosis instead, as it's pretty rare for the tendons themselves to swell; rather, the tendons themselves deteriorate from overuse.

If at all possible, use a union all rather than a plain union to avoid an extra sort / unique node.

I've used that OR > UNION ALL trick a number of times to vastly improve performance on specific queries. It's crazy how much of an effect it can have.

I wish Postgres would implement a planner optimization to automatically run queries with an OR more efficiently (e.g. use the same plan as with a UNION/ALL where possible).
I doubt this will ever happen they may do 5v tolerant inputs but outputs? Highly unlikely. Already the RP2040 uses its own regulator to make 1.1V for itself. The smaller the process and higher the frequency the lower the voltage. So the future is clearly not moving toward 5v.
> I also remember it being pretty fast on the G3 Mac's when they first came out.

One of the comments that Steve Jobs made in the Boston 1997 speech was "No one at Apple has reached out to Adobe to ask how to build the ultimate Photoshop machine" - and in the next few years, Photoshop benchmarks were a key Mac vs Intel comparison during his keynotes.

I don't know if Jobs already had influence on the original beige Power Macintosh G3, but he really seemed to care about Photoshop performance when he arrived.
Accessibility isn't just about possibility, it's about ergonomics.

You could integrate a differential equation by lining rocks up in a large desert as a computer, but you wouldn't say that solution is "accessible" to a human in the same way it would be with a CPU, a monitor, and functioning sight.
This is a huge mischaracterization. Most people in the roman empire were free. Yes, they had slaves, but their economy was not based in slavery. In fact, part of the reforms of Diocletian was to transform everyone into serfs, aka, proto-Feudalism. They walked backwards, not forward.
Basically every game is written in C on a modern processor (MIPS) so i highly doubt it. Maybe some weird homebrew stuff like that flappy bird video uses it but emulators tend to deal with problems like that by ignoring them (e.g. IIRC there is no emulator that can properly run that N64 linux port from a few years ago, and there have been plenty of SM64 glitches that work differently on emulators vs real hardware)
Many bacteria produce antibiotics to outcompete other bacteria, though, so this isn't new or alarming information. Especially given that, as the author admits, the mutation that causes it to produce that particular antibiotic is naturally occurring in S. mutans!

It'd be a more interesting claim if it was argued that mutacin-1140 was particularly dangerous in the relevant doses (and this somehow never came up in the wild-type S. mutans that produce it).

This is an excellent point. And you're probably right that Franklin and maybe Jefferson might have understood and accepted evolution--Darwin's world of the 1860s was not that different from Franklin's era.

But even today, I think many people do not understand the philosophical implications of evolution. Daniel Dennet wrote a whole book on this: "Darwin's Dangerous Idea" (which, perhaps you're familiar with). I think Franklin would have been shocked at evolution's explanatory power. It's hard to talk about things like emotions (anger, lust, jealousy), ethics (justice, retaliation), medicine, or even sexuality without invoking genetics and evolutionary theory.

I agree with you that evolution does not (and cannot) disprove the existence of God (or gods) or even that we were created 6,000 years ago (maybe God created the world to look as if it's ancient).

But I think Franklin would see that evolution has shrunk the numinous realm down to a very small box, and I think that would have shocked him.
Fortunately apps in the EU don’t have to pass though Apple’s anticompetitive review process, so developers are free to ignore that rule if they simply distribute the app via an alternative store.

Unfortunately, poor Americans cannot taste the freedom that Europeans have to be abused by developers.
Cool to see this going smoothly. The only thing I’m scratching my head about is “RSC (soon)”. That’s a big question mark that I would’ve liked to see more info on in this announcement. Things like “use client” and “use server” are have implications for actions and loaders.
They have just dropped the qualifier "known" from the title, as in it should be read "Three of the oldest known stars found in our galaxy".

We obviously don't know the age of each and every star in the entire universe, calm down dude.
Hmm. I appreciate the response but it does not address my concern. The reason is I'm trying to quantify the subsidization. I think what you are trying to articulate is that a $1k subsidy (in the form of a corporate credit card analogy) is equivalent to or greater than a $9k subsidy (in the form of reimbursement analogy). That's not as obvious to me as it is to you, because I have trouble quantifying the end market effect. It's also an order of magnitude difference in the actual amount of subsidy: the analogy I guess would be a company allowing you to spend $100 with the corporate card for dinner, or reimbursing you $900 for dinner? Again I'm struggling to see how one is obviously anti-competitive vs the other.

I'm very interested in hard, quantifiable numbers. I've read lots of articles that have various types of qualifications/characterizations but they don't help. For example, the fact that China's economy is producing 4x the battery capacity as domestic need is forecast - in terms of competitiveness what does this mean for BYD? Does it amount to their being able to sell a car for $10 cheaper? $100? $1000?

I don't see how your comment contradicts the statement "The us generally will extradite if your justice system isn't corrupt. There are exceptions, but everyone has them."

The fact that there is a US law to prevent US service members specifically from being detained by the ICC specifically, has little bearing on the statement that "The US generally will extradite".

Doctor cancer free after novel glioblastoma self-treatment
I said subsidy which isn’t the same as taxes, the existing legal structure is happy to subsidize people both in the tax code and with direct handouts. In such cases it’s the tax payers who are covering that burden so talking in terms of subsidies from specific individuals to specific individuals seems perfectly reasonable though obviously the individual burden is low.

As a simple practical matter, 99% of both his earnings and mine are dependent upon past government spending not just roads but even stuff like the judicial system.But asking everyone pay the same amount while it would benefit us both doesn’t work because the total is larger than some people’s income and we really want government services. Further, it’s not just that he received a larger benefit it also cost more to provide him services.

So if we’re stuck subsidizing some people based on a percentage of our earnings, it’s only reasonable to base the subsidy calculation on a percentage of total earnings.

As to pennies argument, if he bought a lunch it’s meaningless to talk about individual subsidies unless someone paid a truly astronomical amount in taxes it’s some meaningless fraction of a cent. But when you’re talking about ultra large purchases and the lifetime subsidies are both a significant portion of his lifetime earnings and a surprisingly large fraction of federal budget, it cross the penny threshold for some people.

Forget the exact details, but we ran into issues with tuning the two setting you're describing on the Cloud instance (these settings were user level settings that seemed to get reset by ClickHouse Cloud because they were updated based on the cluster size).

I think the culture (not) allowing them to walk has a larger impact on this. I bet that if it was culturally ok then people (kids) would find a way to make it work.

Kids take shortcuts through grass and wooded areas. They are so thoroughly walked through by now that they are just considered normal paths. And if that shortcut leads to a road crossing, that obviously didn't have a zebra, then they just cross there anyway.

I saw that some years ago they built a larger road on the way and put up barriers and what not. Then I saw some kids walk up to it, jump over the barrier, walk across the road and jump over the other side. Obviously this isn't ideal, but if it's okay to let people (kids) walk, then I think they would figure out paths to make it work.

As long as the distances aren't too far. I think 1.5-2 miles would be near the upper limit of reasonableness.
