That is true, but for several generations the first (if not the only) law will be survival of the colony, hence extreme meritocracy. That is very appealing for very many ppl.
My take on why mars: there is no countries and no established laws maintained by existing societal structures. There is just no any other power other than the nature itself. Any colony on earth is doomed to be captured…
Well, to be fair there is a quantum leap: an ability to materialize abstract thought presented as a text. This will end a lot of jobs where anyone can judge the result or certain error rate is tolerable. But while we…
I would not feel bad. The jobs which will be diminished (but not totally gone) will be the jobs which require technical skills to execute. Illustrations for books would be a good example - technically hard job which…
I have a name for this: ai whispers. In order to be efficient there will be a special dialect to talk to different implementations of AIs and ppl will specialize in different dialects.
It’s interesting how fast we will see open positions for AI whisperers: ppl who are proficient with certain text2whatever “AIs” to produce things which are made by relatively low skill workers now days
Taxes are due at vesting.
It took me some time to start understanding bazel properly. But after that using it is very easy and enjoyable (especially inside a monorepo). But learning curve is getting very steep very fast outside of simple BUILD…
An interesting point to view at any drug (including alcohol and even coffee) is presence of social stigmas. Coffee has very mild (almost none) social stigma associated with its consumption: ppl would recommend to drink…
I feel that one of the problems of “bike urbanistas” is lack of utilitarianism. There is no realistic road map to make modern cities in the most of the world to look like Amsterdam/Copenhagen. That is my major problem…
By the rest of the world you mean Europe, right? Because outside of Europe it’s not really the case. Granted, i’ve not visited every country on earth, but in most cases i’ve seen “small livable downtown” is mostly an…
So, HSR will have exactly the same issues as current airports right now: lack of transportation. So the main selling point of HSR (saving time) is diluted somewhat by a necessity to rent a car next to the train station.…
I don’t know: San Jose - Seattle is ~900 miles or 1400km-1500km. That is 5-6 hours direct train at best at 300kmh. I don’t see this as something beneficial to a plane. Borderline comparable to flying and only because of…
There is no good public transit even within bay area (where SFO and SJC are located). Without public transit HSR is close to useless. How HSR will make public transit to appear?
What exactly stops LA from having any working public transit in the first place? Why this _thing_ would not prevent LA from public transit with HSR as well?
I don’t think art or artists will disappear. But what might happen could be interesting: 1. Art production will not require any special motor skills, but rather will require to be good with the natural language: neural…
It’s fascinating. Not only that is fact free, but it’s based on an assumption that the purpose of the government is to collect maximum tax value from the citizens. Is it thought?
Not arguing with the general point, just to clarify: neither slides nor barrels are regulated and both are not considered as guns (unlike frames). And on top of this barrels are consumables. I think stronger point would…
Not true for the new guns either. For example Glock’s serial number is a small metal plate embedded into the polymer.
I’m curious if this lock will be vulnerable to “timing” attack. If it will be possible to understand (by using some side channel) which pins prevented the lock to be turned there will be way less combinations to go…
Another option might be to tax all transactions. Such tax might come with certain services which the government can provide in exchange.
Another angle to look at property taxes might be private property rights. From some point of view real estate taxes are a way to deny these rights by forcing owners to pay rent for the right to use the property.
I think you are mixing 2 different concepts: 1. type of taxes 2. public services While public services you listed are not immoral, the way how the taxes collected to pay for these services can be immoral.
You didn’t trade any stocks, right? Because most of the complications are coming from complex tax situations not from simple salary earnings.
I guess one of the solutions would be to allow custom store fronts with different editors policies. AppStore is not only reviewers and CDN to serve all the packages but also a lot of infra to validate and sanitize the…
