Imagine cheating someone out of supposedly $8,000 and instead putting them into the hole $2,000. Someone who is living paycheck to paycheck.

Yeah I'm the sleaze...

"Sorry, you could've had a large windfall and finally fixed that AC system -- but in my personal opinion, as a tax preparer with over 2 hours of online training -- you didn't keep proper documentation, sorry!

Low effort response, but correct.

If you think your doctor isn't claudeing it up at their little station you're sorely mistaken.

The planet pays doctors much less than the USA does. They still have doctors.

The USA doesn't recognize those other doctors (in more ways than 1 apparently) and that is an aspect of the issue.

She's a tax preparer. It is not her job to police their miles, if they say 100k then that's not on her to go put and check the odometer.

Sadly she is just another poor tax. Highly paid tax preparers are happy to fudge numbers. I've seen it personally - every year.

> My tinfoil hat [...] the relationship between energy providers and law makers

My local establishment's energy czar is also on the board of the electric company (itself a natural monopoly of course).

No tinfoil hat required. They have re-elected her several times as well.

2-3x sounds correct, but I'd also account for a more precise heat control being a factor as well.

Even being very experienced with a given range I'm still tempurature surfing for the most part where with induction I can set it to an exact 165F.

22% down as of this writing

Looking forward to the Apple Pink Pencil Cap Eraser

It's about the debt the companies took and the cash they need to maintain it. The debt will be written down before they can pay.

These companies are rent-seeking landlords for the providers themselves. Which model they serve has no fundamental bearing on the business, the cost of the rent they can charge does.

Coreweave is down 50% with all reports pointing to bankruptcy.

> has not offered a shred of proof

Pardon me? You cannot be serious...

USA has age limits for the executive and that isn't considered an issue. We should have age limits at the top end as well. It isn't only technology. I don't think 80+ year olds should be driving a car or even operating a McDonalds much less making sweeping long term decisions across dozens of disciplines with little to no research.

If you had an AI model for your specific java program why wouldn't you optimize it beforehand?

Self driving is all tactics and no strategy. Waymo would freeze solid when confronted with several hundred motor-scooters and dozens of tuk-tuks.

Recently dealt with a EU company who readily allows hacking from their systems without regard to the victims whatsoever.

There are bad people everywhere and countries uniting against them is a good thing.

LLMs generate more code yes.

I generate more beautiful code, yes.

But the longer the codebase survives the more hair and cruft it accumulates. My once beautiful logical paths get carved up by compounding requirements and edge cases.

That's what the AI was trained on. The end result - the hairy ball of wax that noone can look at sideways.

I often think of that whenever AI comes up with what I consider to be an irrational but plausible edge case.

Sort of.

It's on Microsoft Azure.

> Citizens United

I agree.

Include ranked choice or quadratic voting + repeal CU and a lot of things could improve quickly.

Terms limited to 25 years and age 65 at time of election.

> a nightmare for the business owner, and a huge boon for the legal industry (aka lawyers)

Unequivocally my experience.

These are great

Only sort of true.

Consider the OpenAI case of "goblins". The models overfit to a specific type of output. Goblins was a specific case of this type and needed to be corrected.

> We unknowingly gave particularly high rewards for metaphors with creatures. From there, the goblins spread.

The market will always trend towards less friction - no matter the friction.

This will take off and all the time we've spent on colorful buttons and 3px margins will be like old 2 lane highways build next to the 12 lane super-freeways.

That IS what they're doing.

The surprise is your idea of "relatively cheap" is fungible.

The service WILL be astounding though, I can't deny that.

> most of my driving miles are like that

Makes a lot of sense

Im curious - why do you need 450 miles of range?

My tesla goes 3 hours at 80mph. I can get to any charger I need. There are considerably more than I ever imagined.

Cool, thanks!

Is there a batteries included Rails for Rust that people go to other than this Topcoat? What is the standard when building a web-app in rust?

It's interesting to see the level of discourse change across time as these same points are brought up again and again.

It seems there are many many more people heavily invested in preventing land tax all of a sudden and are very informed whereas when that guy made a land tax visualizer a few months ago... crickets.

> but I struggle to even conceptualize what land value means

One of the first comments. Now there are dozens of people who are suddenly well versed in "georgeism"?

OK great make a homestead exemption. Lots of those already.
