If we're going with bad analogies I have an opposite one - you're walking past the Nike store and the store has a promotion on "Watch 5 minutes of ads and get a free pair of shoes", but you instead kick the TV with the a

It's becomes piracy when you create a new distribution without ads... which you're doing with ad blockers.

You can rationalize this any way you want, but at the end of the day you're screwing over not a faceless corporation - but the very people who put out videos on YouTube. It's fine if you're OK with it, but don't pretend

That's the inherent limit on the models, that makes humans still relevant. With the current state of architectures and training methods - they are very unlikely to be the source of new ideas. They are effectively huge librarians for ac

Someone has to spearhead this thing, don't they? Other people spearheaded the commodity hardware towards being good enough for the server room. Now it's Google's time to spearhead specialized AI hardware, to make it more robu

> Capital gains should be taxed like income. Arguably capital gains should be taxed at a higher rate than income. But that's not going to happen, because your home's change in value is capital gains.

The only thing that I personally care about is the ability of ordinary people to build and retain wealth. Wealth disparity doesn't grow because wealthy people are allowed to retain their generational wealth or not, it grows because the

We have to reframe how taxes are viewed, by the wealthy. There should be no wealth tax, but above a certain threshold - there should be a maintenance fee associated with the wealth. I get charged maintenance fee by my mutual funds, for exam

No... Most americans are just plain ignorant(not in a malicious way, just impossible to parse the signal through the noise on many topics). A lot genuinely have no idea that there's a very high lower limit on inheritance tax... at the

Cool. Inheritance tax doesn't work anymore, in any case. It's not the 19th century and we shouldn't try fixing 21 century issues with 19th century remedies.

UK is a country where a person with 70k of annual income can buy a home for 1mil. The whole property market in UK is a pyramid scheme, time to realize that. The whole system is FUBARed.

USSR operated under state capitalism, nothing like what any of the communists or socialists ever imagined. But I guess that is what USSR made socialism mean as a result. BTW: Most of the world lives under state capitalism, not capitalism,

Socialism is not communism and isn't anarchism. Those are not the same, but too many don't know what's the differrence.

Selling empty homes in London will increase supply of housing in London and lowering the price of housing, allowing less than wealthy people to accumulate wealth. The problem with countries like UK is that real estate is the only way of obt

There's a reason why countries, like Sweden, have scrapped the inheritance tax - it doesn't work like that anymore. The benefits of wealth are exercised long before the inheritance can be applied. Your first home down payment, you

Apple and Qualcomm only use ARM ISA at this point. And no, Apple and Qualcomm are the standard setters in ARM these days. Should they drop ARM for something else... ARM will be on the same trajectory where MIPS ended up. RISC-V is just an I

I believe Malta has English as an official language. PS: Gaelic is a more general term for Irish and Scottish. Ireland brings specifically Irish(Gaeilge in Irish) language.

As long as consumers expect certain foods to be cheap(beef, for example) - you'll get this issue. Kale in US is about as expensive as the cheapest cut of beef. Despite one taking 2-3 years of labor and the other is 60 days.
