The IRS hasn't provided a clear stance on this issue (ask your tax guy). However, this will definitely hurt a lot companies because they used R&D tax credit for salaries. Convincing the IRS that certain salaries suddenly don't

Caste discrimination is real and is definitely hurting people and companies. Few of my coworkers say it exists in the US and then as example tell story about managers, executives, etc. The tricky problem is that caste system is part of Veda

If org uses zero-trust this is not vulnarabity at all. The fact that you can run something on a employees dev machine does not mean a lot. That is the entire point of zero-trust.

Politicians will always try to make numbers to fit their agenda. For example, the stats say that human trafficking is down but street prostitution is out of control (like on Copa St [1]). I have no idea how they made up these numbers but th

Mark Zuckerberg believed VR would be the key to the company's future expansion. Unfortunately, he was wrong. However, it is important for leaders to take risks and lead their companies in new directions. So he has my respect. Simultane

I think this is just a temporary slump caused by the SVB failure. The economy is not doing great but it is not in a complete metldown. I do expect interest rate to continue going up: inflation seems to be quite stubborn.

Who knows. Police officers during hearing and in private definitely expressed that concern. The problem is not if it is lie or not, it is what king of impact this have on police officers who are enforcing the law. These people are not robot

I was trying to be politically correct here on HN. Even though I really tried to tone down my anger (yes anger) and be political my post is still downvoted to hell. There are some really really strong forces preventing change in SF.

There are a few unrelated problems: - Sf closed schools for one year and half during the COVID causing large number of families to move out. And these are people who are contrablance to ultra liberals. - Housing crisis: Corruption within th

Good for you. But I do not feel safe at all. What do your kids and grandkids say about SF? Maybe that is generational - I’m in 50s.

The scary part of SF homicides now that you can be walking around and some crazy guy just shoots you or stab you without any reason whatsoever. They are not professional criminals: they are just so drugged up or whatever.

Funny stat. Majority of murders happen in family. The recent FBI stat says that family members were responsible for 43% of them. Gangs are responsible for about 30%. Now since large number of families moved out from SF, and there are more n

Regarding T-mobile, they claim that content of the text msg must be legal across all 50 states. Not 100% sure which state and with law causes this but that is the reason they gave me.

Another issue is text messages and T-Mobile. When my wife sent me a message saying, "pick up some sea weed," T-Mobile was blocking it. Fortunately, we transitioned to using iMessages, which resolved that problem. However, I contin
