> Banning drug use by force is a US pipe dream. It's impossible. Is it though? If harder drugs were legal, wouldn't harder drug use be much more common? Cannabis is one thing, the perceived impact to oneself is relatively low.

Wow - that's nuts. Thanks for posting; And here I stress out to make sure the exact amount I owe is correctly reported. Oh well, better to sleep at night soundly on that issue!

Yeah, Original statement was logic only. Followup was on how specific areas might be 'cash only' hotspots that diverge from the mean tax paid for occupations, revenue, or other criteria.

My assumption is not empirically correct, I agree, but neither is the belief that IRS audits of mass populations is politically motivated. It is simply ease, right? Easier to audit where it is easy returns, or where one will get a high retu

After reflection, my guess is it would be that in those neighborhoods they have identified a largely 'paid in cash, under-reported' behavior. For example, if nationally a person with "career x" makes $45k, yet reports $1

I would suggest the opposite. IRS realizes the only revenue they're likely to extract correctly are small business owners, and middle to upper class who don't have the time nor legal fee tolerance to fight it. They already extract

I used to feel the same way (specifically around the Fed and Treasury and national debt) - until I realized, it's just a number on a screen. They print dollars as easily as you and I print from our local printer. The digits are all are

I believe the way for more technically minded folks to approach startups is this: I will fail, I will fail many times, I can lose a lot of time and money. I should see if people will pay me before I build it. Startups are REALLY, REALLY har

I don't know why you're being downvoted. Increased exercise helps me: sleep better, have more energy, and look better. That is quality to me.

Founders can, his situation varies. Either QSBS or ideally through 83(b) (where one pays all taxes on company stock at founding in first 30'ish days).

Which is true, but so is my phrase of "If you want to go broke, found a startup". It cuts very deep on the south side often for founders - whereas employees do get a paycheck. Founders will go YEARS often with little to no income.

While I don't disagree that my suggestion is what will happen - in speaking with many founders they cited the egregious tax (it was more than 0.5%) as a reason for setting up shop outside the city. Which leads me to believe it was impa

Good discussion - I respectfully disagree. It increases downstream risk to GH enterprise, and means the risk flows to security team setup at on-prem clients, whom often have no security team - or a few security engineers possibly. And they&

I've now realized I need to be less obfuscating in my suggestions on HN. Literal appears to be the only way. I was suggesting around the corners for people to begin connecting further dots.

Sign with GPG for the hash, as linked. The methods you mentioned do allow malicious modification. Signing the commit with a public key makes it a lot more difficult. In the same vein, one can spoof email - but DKIM, SPF, DMARC together as c

Tesla did not (a few years back if I recall). If I had to swing, I'd say 98% of companies do not. Git does not make it trivial to impersonate commits. http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/signing-git-commits

If so, they need their security team on that. They need to protect their Gemfile bc it would show attack vectors.

I may have been - but it opened up a whole new thought process. Imagine bounded logic competing for resources and otherwise causing mis-appropriated logic. Profound.

I had always heard GitHub was running on Rails - but I always thought "sure some section of it is". Not ALL on rails - with models and controllers in there.

As a product/CompSci person - I like your onboarding workflow. (do agree it is a bit long), but understand from customer discovery perspective. Was allowed to proceed - but I need a path that doesn't require access to my calendar.

I love the application of phrasing of "race conditions" to one's logic; I had never thought of that concept. And your deduction on the outcome is very likely!

You're either really good, or have aspiration to be that much better - right? Those who don't meet one of those criteria probably won't pay for a planner. But I agree the phrasing is odd.
