Yea, I live in the US and I came from a poor immigrant family. The arguement about the true price of your 4 dollar coffee is lost on people. That's why poor immigrants typically rise in economic classes in the US and the folks who defe

Because the tech oligarchs have been so good with paying their taxes under current tax codes when governed by an outside body. They'll do even better in a tech governed county. I forsee Dystopia County's tax collection office will

I dont really see a problem with that. While ugly as hell visually, it's stupid simple to find out what went wrong and fix it. Over abstraction and fancy technique doesn't automatically equate to reliability and performance. Why o

I dont have a revelation what so ever. I think 80%+ of HN users easily know about this. But there are some that dont. It's not a bad idea to just throw out, every now and then, a simple explanation for people to start of a rabbit hole

That's where a lot of people get confused on "wealth". A majority of the top 100 richest folks dont have that liquid. Sure, they can borrow against their assets, but that does change their wealth status in some ways. Musk doe
