It really isn’t worth discussing just federal tax liability in the US, due to how complicated the various taxing jurisdictions are and how diffuse various governing expenses are throughout those jurisdictions.

Especially when comparing to effective tax rates in countries with universal healthcare and different defined benefit pension schemes. For example, health insurance premiums in the US are a tax, due to the myriad restrictions on how premiums can be priced. Just not collected by the government, but it definitely is young and healthy subsidizing poor and sick.

Also, note that most of the reduction in tax liability is due to setting money aside for later use, so it is akin to deferring taxes, rather than just reducing taxes.

Another way to make sense of policy is that the federal US spend is 60% on defined benefit pensions for old people and healthcare for old or poor people, 17% on military, 13% on interest, and the remaining 10% for the rest of the federal government’s operations.

>The state definitely has the right to seek out criminal and undermining elements.

It has the responsibility to do so without violating its citizens human rights.

What you are describing is fascism - the totalitarian-authoritarian elevation of the state over the individual.

>I wonder how you square that with your "Privacy is a key human right that should not be abrogated by the state, ever." stance.

What needs to be squared? This is non-sequitur.

>Why the sudden switch to "this century"?

There was no 'sudden switch' - its a fact that in the past 25 years, Western forces have murdered at massive scales more innocent human beings than any other state or entity.

Why do you defend criminal acts (violating human rights) and minimize mass murder? Are you in the 'might makes right' misanthrope camp?
You got brainwashed

"1982 U.S.-PRC Joint Communiqué/Six Assurances

As they negotiated establishment of diplomatic relations, the U.S. and PRC governments agreed to set aside the contentious issue of U.S. arms sales to Taiwan. They took up that issue in the 1982 August 17 Communiqué, in which the PRC states “a fundamental policy of striving for peaceful reunification” with Taiwan, and the U.S. government states it “understands and appreciates” that policy. The U.S. government states in the 1982 communiqué that with those statements “in mind,” “it does not seek to carry out a long-term policy of arms sales to Taiwan,” and “intends gradually to reduce its sale of arms to Taiwan, leading, over a period of time, to a final resolution.” The U.S. government also declares “no intention” of “pursuing a policy of ‘two Chinas,’” meaning the PRC and the ROC, “or ‘one China, one Taiwan.’”"

Assuming you also get closer to wind generation prices not just overall wholesale prices, it would be really popular.

People would install a battery at home the way most of the world installs solar and they’d see massive reductions in electricity bills more than paying for the battery. The UK is absolutely terrible location for solar, and it’s still installed because UK’s electricity prices are so high.

That said, wind going to absolutely zero nationwide is extremely unlikely but the more people who signed up for such a system eventually just a little power wouldn’t be enough for all of them. So there’s be an economic feedback loop.

Yes, the famous human rights where people get visited by the cops for a Facebook post or an offensive tweet like in the UK.

Also, regarding the UK who just recently forced Apple to remove it's EtoE encryption because it wants access to all the data of it's citizens violating the fundamental right of privacy?

What about the UK terror law where they can detain you at the border without telling you why and for as long as they want, where you can't have a lawyer present with you in the room while they interrogate you and while they go through all your electronics + email + phone and you don't have the right to refuse giving them your passwords otherwise you will be jailed?

Russia is bad, terrible even but let's not pretend that some of the western countries haven't been sliding in proto-fascism either.

Lets also not forget that the UK took part in the illegal invasion of Afghanistan and Irak, which led to the disastrous consequences that we know today.

I think it would be best for the West to stop lecturing the world about democracy and human rights and the rule of law for a while and start by cleaning it's own house first because it doesn't have much credibility left on these matters.

This critique misses the point of Descartes. It can be reformulated as something like "a thought has happened, therefore we can know at least that something that thinks exists." Getting caught up in the subject-object semantics has no bearing on Descartes approach to objectivity. This is no more tautological than seeing a car and then concluding that cars exist.
Not to mention, it's not just the US itself that relies on those forecasts - the rest of the world too. All this turmoil and confusion creates an opportunity for the EU and China (and perhaps also Japan and others) to take the lead.

(I'm not having high hopes for EU to move on this fast enough to achieve anything, but who knows.)

Little by little, the US is relinquishing the economical and political power it holds over the world. Which is worrying, as it increases the risk of a nuclear war.

It's also worth considering that EVs & battery technology are evolving and over time the impacts from build, use and disposal will most probably lessen. If you start with the industrial revolution, the fossil fuel industry had a couple of centuries and the ICE vehicle industry had about 100 years before they even had to think about the environmental effects of their actions and come up with solutions. The battery industry is really only just getting started and already environmental impact of the full life cycle is a significant consideration and a budding industry in itself.

I don't see how Russia would

a) be willing to join a US-led coalition against China, given that the US foreign policy stopped being consistent and the next administration may well make a sharp turn again;

b) be capable of joining a US-led coalition against China when they now spent 3 years slowly restructuring their infrastructure and industry from Western products to Chinese products and any break in the relations with China would mean a full stop for support, spare parts etc., which US alone, with its depleted industrial platform, is unable to compensate for.

Not to mention that Russian nationalists HATE the idea of Russia being a junior partner to anyone and especially to the Anglo-Saxons. That would be hard sell even from Putin.
Having created a technological terror regime, those who present the
greatest threat are the people who built it, understand it, and can
dismantle or change it. For tyrants and terrorists, it's important to
make sure there are very few capable counter-forces, and that they are
fully under your control.

In 1976 Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge regime committed mass atrocities against
the entire educated population, setting that country back by
centuries. Similarly, Stalin's purges from about 1937 on focused on
eliminating engineers, scientists, and doctors.

Science is a threat to weak minds because, when all said and done
science is about truth. Those who are seizing power in the West now
loathe and detest truth. Truth has the potential to empower people.

I do not expect Trump/Musk regime to stop at public science. All
those private companies who thik they are going to be 'winners' have a
very rude shock coming. Any capable, educated minds left will be
pivotal to the survival of democracy in coming years.
Trump involuntarily did more for Taiwan / mainland unification in one meeting with Zelensky than in all the years prior. Taiwanese now understand that they can't trust US to step up to their security commitments. If US won't do it for Europeans being savagely attacked by aggressive neighbors, they won't do it for Taiwanese being blockaded by mainland. At that point Taiwan tariffs and China tariffs will be the same. That was brandished as a powerful weapon about Hong Kong and didn't really do much.
The EU makes the machines that make the chips

Also in Taiwan these machines are fitted with bombs that will detonate if they’re invaded

> There were three places — fewer than I expected! — that previously were infallible by construction, but now need a runtime check to ensure that a number is an integer. For example, when indexing into a list

A float actually sounds like the perfect way to index a list: anything in the range from from 0 to 1 (excluding either) would map to the first element. It works just like the wheel of fortune. Well almost, with the wheel exactly 0 or 1 would be invalid. So you might want to index using 0.5, 1.5, etc instead, and the implementation can round up or down the way it wants. We've solved a language incompatibility issue, lol </rant>
There's not one green belt. There are a number of green belts, typically constricting our biggest economic centres, but the spaces between allow development.

This leads to situations like Oxford where people working in the university that gave the city its current fame can't afford to live in it. Instead they live in suburban towns outside of Oxford's green belt and commute in - through it. Ironically, there is now an incentive for the same number of people to sprawl over a larger area, requiring more railways, roads and parking. Many locals in Oxford's new sprawl expect a non-existent greenbelt to protect their areas and are left disappointed.

The real rub is that England lacks Scotland's right to roam. So protecting all this green land doesn't even give us the right to walk in it. Only to gaze from a passing window.
Designing for space is definitely an art full of pitfalls. Guides like [1] exist that cover basics, but experience is king.

One of my favorite pitfalls in aero is connector mating lifetimes. Any time there is a connector (like a good old-fashioned DB-9), there are metals in the contacts that will have a pressure-based interface (pin inserting into hole). High-ductility metals (copper, gold, etc. that are typically used for connectors) like to become brittle after getting bent around a bit. Unfortunately, when the individual conductors become more brittle, their stiffness goes down, and this results in the connector performing poorly on vibes. This is because the resonant properties of the individual pins within a connector are tuned to not have micro-disconnects during the vibration of launch - they are sufficiently stiff to withstand the forces. This tuning is a function of the number of times it has been connected and disconnected because of the embrittlement, so each connector has a "mating lifetime" on the order of 10 mates/demates before you have to scrap it. This means your flight electrical connectors are really, really important. I remember being a young naive engineer and being shocked and appalled by the waste.

Yes I should have been explicit that diversity came with international consequences. I wonder if they intend turning off the sat ground stations and services or if the DoD has pointed out how silly that would be.

The word climate probably caused the problem. They should have stuck to weather. Maybe they can call themselves "the weathermen" and move underground?

> Turns out the “ideal market” is a dystopia instead of the intended utopia.

Why? This market is pretty much ideal and sets the right incentives. You have little to no information asymmetry, you need to strike a price that clears the market because you must balance production and demand.

Why should sellers of renewable energy be forced to sell at their marginal cost when they are selling a commodity where somebody else gets triple the price?

I have a feeling that user testing just gets completely avoided.

One thing which bugs me since the last redesign of the horrible apple photos app, is that they changed its order of showing picture?!

After going on a trip, i like creating a album and sharing it with my family, I also put there some comments, and try to turn it into a story. I believe this is what an album is supposed to do, tell a story.

Therefore rendering the pictures by default from oldest picture to the newest one is very important.

This however did not fit properly into the new design of the Photos app, as they changed it to `Date added`.

Whatever that means, at the end of the day, it starts showing pictures from the newest one, to the oldest one. Which means it’s the opposite way. Think about watching a movie backwards…

You cannot seriously compare the Taiwanese defence forces to Grenada or Panama.

Citizens got left behind because of corrupt government policy that took the gains from cheap imports, centralized them into newly-created money (to make sure inflation still happened), and then dumped most of that new money into cheap loans for the financial industry, driving asset inflation and other financialization. This was the so-called "fiscal responsibility" of the past three+ decades - profligate handouts for the rich.

A sane alternative would have been for the government to spend the surplus on deliberate policy goals such as infrastructure development, preserving the industrial base, scientific research, forward looking renewable energy and less polluting processes, restoring the expectation of full time employment to 40 hours per household, etc. Distorting prices in those sectors in service of deliberate goals would have been much better than making housing unaffordable and calling it progress.
My reading between the lines is that AccuWeather realizes that NOAA and NWS are golden geese which give them very cheap access to high quality data, and that if those were privatized, they'd probably have to pay more for that kind of data.

You're right that it doesn't read like they care as much about the public's ability to be directly able to access that data; They're just aware that if the taxpayer is funding it, they're going to be demanding some sort of access, and since a lot of that raw data still needs to be 'digested' to make sense to the average person, it's not a big deal if the raw data is publicly available. And anyone that tries to also commercialize it to compete can be crushed by their Superior Accuracy(tm).
That's religion? True here means human believes in it. But not provable. It's religion.
EVs should definitely not be rentals, especially in countries with poor charging infrastructure. The use cases between renting and daily ownership are vastly different and EVs simply don't suit most rental use cases. I see quite a lot of understandable anti-EV comments due to rentals but it's rare to find an EV owner who goes back to ICE. EVs don't need to charge in 3 minutes, they need to charge where you park them, which is easy for owners but very difficult for a short term renter.

a message to ignorant impostors pretending to be scientists and
engineers. If nothing else that makes room for a few more genuine
people.
