If you're living internationally wouldn't it fall under this? >If you are a U.S. citizen or a resident alien of the United States and you live abroad, you are taxed on your worldwide income. However, you may qualify to exclude

Living in places is not what we're discussing. Immigration is becoming a citizen of another place. Americans can move almost anywhere. Becoming a CITIZEN is an entire different kettle of fish. I feel like this is where a lot of misunde

An exit tax? There is no such thing. Are you talking about the $2300 processing fee? You're paying for the paperwork and interviews. You're not going to be a citizen anymore so it seems fair to require you to pay for the time and

This is incorrect. The US even in the current time has one of the most open immigration systems in the world. Which is awful, but it is nonetheless true. Try to become a citizen in Europe without having a familial claim or a ton of money. Y

When you hear people complain about paying taxes internationally they can be broken down into two broad camps: 1) People who have received bad tax advice 2) The wealthy

Yeah people are super cheap. No one likes to pay for anything, especially if they think they can just wait you out. Once one person ponies up for the connection, everyone wins (because Comcast will wire the whole neighborhood). So they&#x27

I suspect (knowing the area like I do) and from some of the maps he showed, he's on ~2acres. Maybe a bit less/more. There's a ton of these small subdivisions springing up in the Ann Arbor area. Houses tend to be in the 750k-1

If you do get the chance to take the train, I recommend it. My wife likes Chicago and since we're in Ann Arbor we go about once a year. I refuse to drive to Chicago because it just makes me mad, so we take the train. Hop on in Ann Arbo

No bears in the Ann Arbor area sadly. You have to go a bit north to get bears. But those areas are easily reached via car. My parents for example live 3 hours away (220-ish miles) and they get a couple of bears a year bumming around.

Cadence makes some of the most incomprehensible pieces of niche software I've ever had the pleasure of encountering, so I got a bit of a grim chuckle to see a blog post from them about software complexity.

WiFi printers work great--assuming you assign them a static IP address and you set it up by telling Windows/OS X to use that IP address as the port address instead of any goofy auto detect nonsense pushed on you by the manufacturer.

Actually, we ARE in Ypsilanti. Ann Arbor has worse options then us--they don't own their poles and they're a bigger city. We're small enough and have the poles to make us a better target for small time rollouts. I'm lovi

I have gigabit up and down in my house in Michigan for $49/month. Fiber, a new ISP. We got lucky in my town because the city owns the phone poles and is very open to leasing space.

Oh? Do you thinj companies like fox media corp or Raytheon are places where you can push for liberal political activism? Because I can tell you you would be incorrect. Those companies have a clear opinion on those matters and will not be ki

Fun loophole that usually works--so Adobe Acrobat on the Mac doesn't let you use the default Print to PDF functionality, BUT if instead of selecting PDF you print to Postscript it will work.

My wife has a staff of 20 and most of them are young-ish. Like a few years out of college, first real professional job. About half of them have packed up their apartments and gone home to their parents. They're still paying their rent

What I tell people that are railing against Roundup ready crops and other GM crops is this: say we decide to stop using these types of crops today--pick the millions of people that get to starve in the upcoming year. Just point to an Indian

It seems like every time they update their website it ends up on HN and everything the discussion is the same. Unless the website actually introduces new facts or plans I wish it’d stop popping up.

This is opening up all new avenues of thought in my head! So theoretically if we tested an astronaut on a simple mental recall test on Earth and timed then, then had them repeat the test on a trip to the Moon but timed them on the Earth the

We saw our deliverability go way up with SES. It’s pricey for what it is but we’ve had really good luck with it.

Isn't this still an Epic issue? Basically if Epic delivered their engine to their customers as source code and NOT as a compiled binary couldn't the customers build the engine and include it in their App Store submission? But sinc

Agreed. This is a calm and well reasoned post. Epic knew what they were doing, knew what they were risking, and did it anyone. Now there's nothing to do but wait for the courts to figure it out while Epic cries crocodile tears over the

This is separate from anything an AV might do, so forget the scanner part. A virus scanner with a signature for this malicious JAR will still catch it. What this is avoiding is the prompt and extra scrutiny Windows throws up if you try and

The tricky bit I imagine is the gap between step 4 and step 5 in your attack scenario. To get this to trigger you need to get the JRE to invoke on the MSI file. The JRE isn't typically associated with MSIs so you would need a secondary

I've been led to believe that 'high' explosives are explosives that explode/combust faster than the speed of sound. Others (like black powder) burn slower.
