I don't see how UBI can work, on a nationwide scale it means everyone got x% more money and the market would adjust itself accordingly by raising prices?

Also UBI is funded by taxes, which if applied to middle class they will vote against you. And if applied to companies, they push it down on the customer, making everything cost more (and therefore negating the UBI effect).

What probably would be more effective for society would be improved an ACA, a cap on healthcare costs for all if you will and free yearly health checkups.

Veterans in countries with free college and health care for all, such as Australia or many European countries have it better still, as they receive their veterans benefits, while allowing those who did not or could not serve to also live free from undue burden or peril.

I do take your point, though, and don’t protest too much. It’s less a matter of how much is enough for our veterans, but rather, how far we have left to go, one and all. In many ways, veterans simply arrived at the limits of political capital before the rest of us, and now that the problems veterans face are similarly butting up against many if not all in some form or fashion, we have economic capital concerns in the form of UBI that has become the stalking horse for larger structural issues largely left unaddressed facing us all.
Took about 15 to 20 flights in 2023 and the best experience was Spirit (majority were Spirit out of their hubs); pack things in bookbag, put bookbag under seat, get off plane quickly and saved 1,000s cumulatively.

United was the worst due to someone smelling up the plane & they didnt clean the bathroom .. made everyone gag.

Everyone hates on Spirit but if you're a frequent traveler who flies lite and likes to travel a lot/ not spend a lot they rock . If you are expecting same level of svc as more expensive airlines then you should spend that extra money.

Be very careful of typical "Silicon Valley" think... ie. those who know nothing about an industry yet seek to revolutionize it.

The first step would be to find out and truly understand why things are the way they are today. They didn't get there on accident - so before cooking up a plan to "improve" the industry you must first understand what the industry would consider an improvement.

Also, it will be difficult to break out into an industry like Airlines. They will be conservative in nature and risk averse. It's unlikely they will take a gamble on an unknown startup's service/platform.

Lastly - the issue they've experienced over the past few days is not something a startup or SaaS platform would have prevented.
They should’ve started with user choice as the first milestone when it was originally announced. Similar to Apple’s app tracking. Or just get rid of cookies and let ad tech be less invasive.
> The Tax Solution page doesn't make it clear as to whether it handles US State Sales Tax problems?

I will fix that. It handles US State Sales Tax to some extent. So it has state tax rules and thresholds. So will only apply the tax if the threshold or there is a nexus. However, it doesn't have the polygon tax areas that would be needed for cities. For example, Illinois doesn't have SaaS tax but Chicago does. That is very high on my list of things to do. But you could work around that right now by doing it on a customer level. Where you set the tax rate for the customer.

But I will definitely improve that text on the tax page to explain how it hands the US tax issues.

Value isnt the same thing as labor/work. This would change where the value goes, not the amount of work done.

A restaurant needs X hours of labor to make Y hamburgers. This is true if all the money goes to workers, or just a fraction of it.

You could pay a worker more, but that doesn't increase the supply of hamburgers.

Inversely, any value tied up in the share price is not being spent on hamburgers.

The best you can hope to do is shift some consumption from investors to workers, but consumption differences are as great as wealth/value differentials. e.g. Musk & Bezos might have 1 million times as much value to their name, but they don't consume 1 million times as many hamburgers. The vast majority of excess value held by investors is not directed towards consumption.

The "Thundervolt" reference in that post is a project where they cut up a Wii PCB to leave just the DRAM and the processors on the PCB, and then they slap an external DCDC board on top of that cut up PCB to provide power to it, while also undervolting it since you reduce the IR losses.

That's a rather smarmy response for someone who clearly lacks reading comprehension. I'd recommend:

(1) look up the definition of "disincentive". The parent didn't say anything about people not wanting to work or not wanting to be useful. And even then, you actually agreed about it being the disincentive ("if I support you but threaten to stop supporting you as soon as you get to work for money—suddenly working for money looks less attractive").

(2) understand the meaning of the phrase "The problem with X today is Y". It's very clearly not saying that Y is a problem with X, in fact, it's implying that there are other approaches to X that don't have problem Y.

>Are we Western Devs about to learn a very hard lesson?

I'm sure off/nearshore folks will happily take any work corp america gives them. My company is still remote and we've expanded significantly in 'near shore' hiring.

Industry wide, we may well be setting ourselves up for a 'hard lesson'. Our nearshore devs are actually pretty productive. I'm not finding nearly the same amount of friction that I've seen working with offshore devs that are in significantly different time zones. I don't see how tech TC doesn't eventually 'equalize' more with the rest of the world.

For me personally, I've had some recent 'come to jesus' moments losing some elderly family members and my own health issues that make me realize I should be working to live, not living to work. My current company is remote. I do not see me going 'into office' to satisfy the arbitrary whims of management. I'm old enough and well established enough that I can pretty much do what I like without worrying too much about the repercussions for my 'career'

Well... yes?

If digital widget producers are worth $x to the company, and get paid 0.8x in one location and 0.4x in another location, I'm not sure why I'd regard that as anything other than exploitative.

CoL isn't really related to the market value of labour for remote-capable jobs; it would be similarly exploitative if the company paid childfree people, vegetarians, and basement apartment dwellers less because of their drastically reduced cost of living.

I could see a point for fairness if the salaries were scaled so that average post-CoL savings in different CoL areas were equal, particular within regions (e.g. a country) where people have freedom of movement.

> I don't think most Linux/BSD boxes would benefit from it.

EDR isn't antivirus. It logs and detects more than it prevents, and you need that on Linux as much as Windows. You can do incident response without it if you are shipping your logs somewhere, in the sense that you can do anything without any tool, but it's certainly a lot easier with.

Possibly you need it less than on Windows since it's easier (for now) to do kernel stuff with eBPF, but then somebody has to do the kernel stuff.

Speaking as a professional red teamer, no OS has a ton of RCE, but applications do, Linux applications no less than Windows ones. Applications aside I'd rather be up against Windows in the real world because of Active Directory and SMB and users that click stuff, but Linux running a usual array of Linux server stuff is OK too.

This misunderstands the economy. It's driven by household and government spending. All that B2B stuff happens because some company, somewhere at the end of the chain, sells to households or the government.

Sure, there is also business investment. But that only happens because someone expects to sell to households or the government. If all you are selling is luxury goods, which depend on direct high labor content for their value, then most of the B2B businesses disappear also.

And yes, there are exports. But not at global scale. The globe is closed.
> Also, I hope that people don't try to implement 'reactivity' in the React way for Web Components... The correct way to handle state changes in Web Components is by changing their attributes and setting up an attributeChangedCallback inside the component

You don't want to update the component on every attribute change as the component might have multiple attributes so you need to batch the changes. Then when changing you also don't want to discard the whole rendered component and render it again. With those 2 things you have React, or much better, without a vdom: LitElement + Lit-html.

Offshored work solves a very different problem. Typically they're being given lower-difficulty work where the quality of the developers and their specific qualifications are less important, so it's easy to co-locate a team of sufficient quality.

One of the advantages of US/European remote teams is that they can pull the most skilled personnel available from many different regions and have them all working together. When you force a team to be co-located, you weaken your talent pool.

Or, in other words: A high-performing team requires a group of:
- motivated engineers
- with the right skillsets
- who can communicate effectively
- and work together effectively
and losing any of these three things will trash your team's throughput. It is hard to get all three, but especially hard when you hard-limit your team to a single city.

Outsourcing trades "with the right skillsets" (and to an extent "who can communicate effectively") for "cheaper" and "in the same location". This works just fine as long as you don't need serious skillsets, but is nowhere close to an effective replacement.
That's an ACCIDENT, not a decision.

Rich people say you don't need a yacht. Yet, rich people buy yachts. Clearly yachts are very important for becoming and staying rich, and the wealthy are undermining the poor with their "yachts are a luxury" posturing.

It is to be expected that people encountering different circumstances would adopt different behaviors. That well-off people are more likely to live in a nuclear family does not mean living in a nuclear family is the reason they are well-off, nor does it mean that people in worse circumstances would be better off if they made the same choices.

Their kernel was open to SW devs since the very beginning, it's one of the reason that helped Windows grew in popularity especially as a video game platform. Early 3d games needed direct kernel access to extract maximum performance from the HW, but then MS built Direct3D as a wrapper for that direct HW access so games couldn't crash your whole system.
> if none of your projects make money

If your plan is for none of them to /ever/ make money, then this is logical. If your hope is that one of them somehow does make money, you'll probably want your code to be flexible enough to be moved to a platform that won't destroy your profit margin over pay-as-you-go billing. At which point, the investment of effort will have paid for itself.

There's the problems you currently have, then there's the problems you want to have.

The "explosion" comes from the asteroid itself. The risk comes from radioactive dust being ejected in to the atmosphere and falling down all over the earth.

Not sure I buy "Murphy predicts" but large asteroid impacts carry far more energy than any terrestrial explosion. The nuclear materials don't need to add any energy to that for the risk to be present.
