(I'm not a tax advisor... just reading the IRS website.) The annual limit for gifts from one individual to another is $17,000 for 2023. Even so, nothing kicks in until you cumulatively gift enough to cover the "Basic Exclusion Amo

Specifically, the site seems to follow the system's preference for light mode or dark mode. The link style against the dark mode background is very difficult to read.

In Haskell, replacing the symbolic operations doesn't imply we have to abandon infix operations: (and (eq (subtract u v) 10) (eq (mult u v) 1)) could be: (u `subtract` v `eq` 10) `and` (u `mult` v `eq` 1)

I’ve been finding this to be the case with the fediverse so far. I have different accounts on Mastodon and Bookwyrm, since Bookwyrm is more tailored to book reviews and quotes. But I can follow Mastodon, Bookwyrm, Peertube, and Pixelfed acc

I suppose one answer is that the diagram does still work for non-crypto companies. Reading the analysis that way, the simple conclusion is that they didn't see the value being created. However, it's not impossible that it could ha

What part of that diagram would break down for a company within the 'real economy'? Naively, if I am running a SaaS company, I receive fiat in and pay fiat out. It's the same two pipes. It's just that some of the fiat co

Yes, around 2000 they swapped the numbers. Most recent versions treat the Spy as 1 and Marshal as 10. Classic versions ranked the Marshal as 1 and Scouts as 9, with the Spy designated as S.

One difference seems to be in the size of the domain. In the interactive example, you know the possible edges to begin with, and selecting them is straightforward. The confidence is calculated based on that. For graph isomorphism, you would

by wakamoleguy 5y ago
I suppose if you choose edges at random, then it's as likely to fail early as it is to fail late. So if you get to 70% confidence, that does seem reasonable to believe it's probably 3-colorable (but still with a big chance that it

With the second graph, Turbo mode often gets up to 60% or 70% confidence before detecting an issue. That seems odd, since I'd expect most edges in a graph to be colorable and only a few to have issues, so I'd "expect" mo

And that’s ok! I am happier with my current life of balance than I ever would be with that level of singular focus. The hard part is not comparing yourself to people who have made those choices differently than you. I often find myself sayi

Since the Y axis only goes to 80%, the chart appears at first to have a bigger absolute jump than it actually does. For example, it makes it harder to tell at a glance that there are about as many (percentage-wise) remote-not-ok postings no

Of course people publishing papers are responsible for the quality of the underlying data. If the data is bad, you don’t get to pretend it’s good. You write a paper describing how it is bad.

This is cherry-picking numbers to make vaccines look ineffective. It focuses on attack rate, rather than the risk of hospitalization and death, and it ignores the importance of lowering the attack rate in slowing the overall spread of the v

It isn't necessarily any worse for public/cafe computers. Just like any login system, the UI should have the ability to remember you or not. With the browser acting as your user agent, it can manage multiple contexts (work, person

This is really cool, and its an interesting way to try to monetize what would otherwise be a relatively small service. The big issues here are trust and security. Before using a third-party login, especially if it isn't one of the big

That sounds very much like the goals of Mozilla's Persona service. While it required a separate service and some JavaScript, the idea was that it could be supported natively by browsers in the long run. Unfortunately, it was shut down

If it is important to the operation of the function, from an outsider perspective, the intermediate call should be tested. Oftentimes this isn't the case, though. Most often, I see intermediate calls spied/mocked when they have si

The integration tests that you are describing behave much like I would expect unit tests to behave. Give an input, assert the results (return value or state change). The example of optimizations breaking the unit test could be either a poor

One trick you could use is to add a setTimeout or asnyc/await somewhere during the recursion. By forcing a step to be asynchronous, the stack count will be reset.

Rebinding `this` is the key for sharing methods using prototypal inheritance. It allows methods on the prototype object to dynamically dispatch to methods depending on the child you are calling it on.

Directors are under a fiduciary duty to make decisions they feel are best for the company and its shareholders. That's does not mean they have to do every legal thing to make more money. There are several things that may make money in

It sounds to me like it is a temporary holdover from the earlier plan to speed up the implementation of Phase 1. The idea is that it's better not to add the complexity to parsing while the minimal kernel is figured out, and then layer

What about the other perspective, from the company's side? They set up their processes, expectations, and pay based on a 40 hour work week. It's great that you want to work and be paid more, but they have no obligation to be the o

I believe it is referring to things like stock option buybacks, so that early employees can reap some of the rewards from their equity compensation. It may not directly help investors, who are buying into the company as a whole. It may just

Ex-Asana here. Asana has written about the lack of leveled titles in the past[0]. I believe the use of titles is a separate issue to pay transparency. At around the same time, there was an effort to improve the transparency in pay bands. I

Yeah, I wish I could call myself an expert there, too, but I've still some exploration to do before I'm really happy with how I have it set up, let alone recommending it to others. Awesome that you're here responding, though.

This is OK. It compares some of the features of Web Components and React components as they stand today. Having recently used Web Components in a side project, I will say that I wish it touched more on how to give Web Components reactivity.
