It is very bad. I spent the last year or so rebuilding a system with a fundamental architecture error that it would likely be fighting against for decades. My reward? The refactor was so difficult to do that I ended up getting dinged on tim

I'm a little baffled why there have been all these articles of this category recently. It's not news that you don't pay taxes on invested assets you hold and don't sell. That's how it works for everyone who invests

to add to the confusion the Quadra 605 and the Performa 475 were actually the same machine. I know because i had the Performa 475 ( and performed the very after market upgrade you refer to, so I could run Infini-D and other 3d modelling pac

what are the 'good reasons' exactly, though? Is it whether we like them or not? And should the NY Times be in the business of adjudicating that?
