Bezos can avoid that limit by donating his Amazon shares directly

A) that's fraud B) you still need $10 million of income to deduct C) this isn't making money. You can't directly deduct a collectible or security you donate. You can give it away without realizing any capital gains however.

The 32-bit to 64-bit ARM transition was a huge deal. It was made somewhat seamless to end users because both copies of the entire system stack could be included for a few releases, but it was at least as big a deal as the 32-to-64-bit x86 t

Perhaps better titled "the Mac's long journey", since it's only about one Apple platform and not really about processors. And even then it seems to end around 2006.

That's an interesting definition of "major". Some of these permits are for projects like a 59 square foot expansion [1] of a single family home. [1] http://a810-bisweb.nyc.gov/bisweb/JobsQueryByNumberServ

MIPS/SPARC/POWER chips were all meaningfully better than x86 chips at the time too. Alpha had the trick that it could kind of run Windows NT, but it was a waste to bother since 3rd party app support was so spotty.

Efficiency. A large and increasing amount of human-made energy goes to computation, yet only a tiny proportion of software is written with energy efficiency in mind. Most programmers don't even have the tools to answer how much power t
