Now we need some hardware that is rackmount friendly, an OS that is not fidly as hell to manage in a data center or headless server and we are off to the races! And no, custom racks are not 'rackmount friendly'.

So, the Powerbook Duo Dock?

After having to deal with shell rc files causing chaos and unpredictability, I can appreciate your top level code fundamental not being random code but something that is parsable and not subject to the halting problem.

You create a lot of other side effects that destroy a lot of valid activity and thus cause a large economic depressive effect, or you will start needing to provide a lot of other counterbalances that will be even worse or cost the government a lot more.

This has the finance equivalent of feeling like cookie banners will actually do anything.

Political power will advocate for it's power, you have to go one level higher and interact at that level, not on tax law tweaks.

To give an example of where this has gone wrong already, look at the entire interaction between startup stock, ISOs and AMT and how it creates a horrible trap for startup employees, but not for founders and investors who get a lot of very nice tax benefits like QSBS, no AMT, so on. Because startup employees are diffuse, usually have unstable employment and are usually younger, this hasn't been fixed to this day.

While other countries like Israel have this fixed in a very elegant way, where you can exercise without tax bombs and only actually have tax liability when you actually can and do practically realize or liquidate the stock gains.


IMO you shouldn't put a large amount of quoted text, that is just annoying. You should link out at that point. I think if we ban people from citing sources, they will just stop citing sources and that is even worse. It's the new "I googled that for you" and that is fine IMO.

"I googled that for you" is generally deployed when you know better than the other person (and likely wish to rub it in their face that they should know better too).

I feel like the LLM equivalent here sort of demonstrates the exact opposite (I don't know enough about this topic to even doubt the accuracy of the machine...)


I often get to a point where it's faster to tell a person to just look at the output of the ai agent than to write it out myself.

"I googled that for you" can also be done from a position of ignorance too.

This is just a new thing that new cultural norms are developing from.


Seeing how short all the buildings are in London, its housing shortage is obviously fairly self imposed in that city.

There are plenty of tall new buildings being built.

So many commenters about London on here who don't actually live here.


They are fairly concentraded over small area, meanwhile rest of London is endless sea of small row houses.

Lack of housing is almost always a zoning issue. Builders will always build if there's money to be made and people to sell houses to. The only reason they're not is because they're not allowed to.

You’re often not even allowed to build things that aren’t in keeping with the area even if nobody can see the bits of the property. It’s mostly about stopping people nearby having a nicer house than you.

You could easily build plenty of high rises but they are either insanely overpriced or extremely poor quality in London.


There are a ton of skyscrapers being built. They’re just not particularly affordable

maybe time to move the city of london's data centers too? meta doesn't have a huge data center in their corporate offices either.

There are other regular checkup stuff that does end up there depending on how it's filed. Heart imaging, mammograms, colonoscopies, etc.


It does exist! https://occupationallicensing.com/occupation/interior-design...

Yes, it has gotten that bad.


"Just sign the contract, we'll never use that clause!"


Why isn't #1 an import duty sales tax system instead and you need to declare the proper value as part of shipping, or the good is rejected / confiscated?
