I was friends with my neighbors. I didn’t literally test with an elephant but I was morbidly obese at the time and did quite a bit of jumping and furniture moving. Joking aside, I would ask the inspector to test the building materials and w

I think Attia’s spiel is that you eat clean, exercise, and take rapamycen. It’s not like those are exclusive options. In his book he also goes into how it would be silly to skip the important pieces like diet and exercise and only get to th

Is there any dev friendly company that buys companies like this? Oracle would make it suck more. Microsoft, Amazon, or Google would make it less portable and do they buy infrastructure projects like this? Would Cisco maybe consider this inf

They exist. My last home before my free-standing house was a poured concrete and brick condo. You could jump up and down with an elephant and the downstairs neighbors wouldn’t hear you. You just have to test before purchasing. And, of cours

Is this unique to America? It seems the same problem exists for libraries globally, right?

That’s going to be way too much held over. If I have $4k in income then taxes will be 20-50% of that. The realtor does not pay the taxes of the brokerage. And all fees are not part of net income and not taxable. They are part of gross incom

Definitely not as big as Amazon or Microsoft, but big enough to do whatever they want regarding AI. I’d expect the private cloud they operate is top 20 in the world just to support all their Apple saas offerings.

Why is 25% set aside for taxes if the realtor is only getting 20%. This seems odd. Wouldn’t they only be taxed on income net of all expenses?

It literally reduces the price paid to commission. That will to either the seller as a saved cost or to the buyer as a reduced price. How could it not increase their wealth?

It makes more wealth for the homeowner so it’s actually a net gain as there were realtor expenses. More wealth is gained by society by giving homeowner an extra $20k in price than giving a realtor $20k for limited value.

Yet I expect that Siri is still the most widely used voice assistant just because people don’t really use many complicated commands or queries. People I know just create appointments, do hands free calling and simple stuff that Siri is pret

Apple has a massive cloud, but they don’t sell it or really want to sell it. I think they’ll want local because it fits into their profit margins and pushes higher end hardware. Imagine really having a reason to buy an iPhone18Pro or whatev

Stealing manhole covers is quite easy compared to hauling off a vending machine and drilling out the cash box. $80 sitting easy is great for a junkie. But requiring multiple steps and special equipment may as well be a voyage to the moon. F

That’s why it is so rare for people to drag vending machines somewhere to do it in peace. They are big and bulky and heavy and all that work for, what, $80? Junkies aren’t usually that coordinated to pull this off.

Yes, that’s how statistics work. They average all the people at 80 to see how long further they lived. And here they show the median.

It has a section on data. It only uses current mortality reports and doesn’t predict anything based on current health trends. Also note that obesity isnt unique to the US and applies to pretty much the entire developed world, it’s just that

Users benefit from accurate information. If AI only answers what benefits the owner, that really reduces the value of the product.

No country is paying the amount proposed. If so, please provide. It should be simple by just showing entitlement amount divided by people. Countries pay substantial amounts but not to the level proposed by UBI amounts. There’s an argument f

I’m saying they the math clearly shows there aren’t enough 500k earners who will pay the tax to pay the UBI recipients. And it frustrates me that people include whether people will or won’t take jobs paying $500k because of higher taxes. It

But your idea of working harder falls apart though with taxing the middle class for UBI. Bezos doesn’t work 1M harder than the average worker. But a doctor making $250k definitely works 2-5x harder (education, life and death, training, etc

Because you know it’s Tuesday night and that the price is half off. This way you won’t know the price until you show up so it’s hard to predict the price until you have some sunk costs.

Thanks, sorry I misunderstood and thought the license was open core. I should have checked the license instead of just reading through the issue and assuming based on the headline.

But with open source projects the community has the option to fork and carry on the code as the community wishes. With licenses where a company owns and limits the IP, the community is stuck and can just stop using the project. I think that

One of the many reasons why I think “open core” is not so hot and users should choose to avoid them and prefer OSI-conformant open source licenses that give them options when the company does lame stuff like this-fork and continue on.

It precludes a great many people. In my example, the US won’t grant security clearance to a foreign national. Even if you are a permanent resident, you don’t get clearance without citizenship.

Don’t they though? People pretty consistently get fired over this. I had to go through training that said what happens if I do something like this.
