Just about right for a different country than the US. Mortgage rates in India 8.3-9.5% right now, inflation 5-6%, benchmark rate 6.5% - and this may or may not be tax deductible in India, perhaps depending on the usage. And 25-44% yoy stock

For once the date of the article is rather relevant. But even then the simpler mechanisms are useful to be aware of if financial planning is a concern for you. And the most complex mechanisms completely irrelevant to the common mortal.

If nobody seeds it (or continue development) then it's dead. Inspiration and perhaps code for the next effort sure. But not "exist" that makes a difference.

It seems to me the various efforts are dead or stalled. Anything in actual current development or production? IPFS was supposed to go in that direction and still exists, sure, but not to provide IA duplication (that is advertised.)

There is confusion between capital gains tax and estate tax (and estate planning devices like trust law). And that matters. Is the problem capital gains tax as some people claim or is it elsewhere? In the process described, capital gains ta

To be fair, there are very accessible options like margin loan or pledged assets which you can also keep going indefinitely - possibly all the way into estate tax which - as a "little guy" - you wouldn't owe. They are higher

5.8 - 5.6% above 100k now indeed, and that's for margin (which you can live on OR re-invest)! Not low but improving yes! Roughly in line with a 15 yr fixed rate mortgage but not tax deductible at least if you live on it. Might be tax d

Your brokerage will likely lend you money but you will be disappointed by the rate. It is not "very low". Not even "low". At least not where we are now in the interest rates cycle.

In that section, they are not yet altering the radios. They are comparing the ones from a pile purchased. So this is about the different radios having components from different manufacturers, different tech, different quality. - Leading to

And even for trivial questions, there is a lot out there that the doc developers ignored or hid. For me, the current state of affairs is the difficulty of aiming search engines to the right answer. The answer might be out there, but figurin

One answer might be "infrastructure". Infrastructure in space will become big if space becomes big (beyond launching telecom, observation and science - which are small for now, compared to their launch potential.) SpaceX will need

An interesting question (because all the others will probably be too slow) is what does that change for SpaceX itself (which can be fast)? It gets to complete and upgrade Starlink. Sure. And that keeps it busy for what? Two years? At most.

Attach a tether to one of the fin pods, then blow up the rest to sink it cleanly and bring back the important part.

Possible yes but still, this is a prototype with new fin configuration, materials and lots of detail to be understood from inspecting it in detail. An inspection would be very useful. At the same time, this is SpaceX and they have a few oth

I must say though "right on its launch tower" is fun and all... but things would have to get pretty extreme in the "routine" dimension for that to be very useful. If there are 20 first stages and 5 land/launch tower

It landed right next to their own camera-bearing buoy. You can bet their own recovery ship was right nearby. And with access to radio control too. Likely with a couple US military ships on hand too.

They showed 4 streams at once during some of the reentry. One view of each control surface. They may have had still more views but just that 4 was a first.
