No one, but I guess some people like paying taxes.

Billionares are a more productive allocation of resources than the state, so I am fine with not taxing them any more than anyone else. If a billionaire takes out a loan, It should be just like you took out a HELOC; non taxable. I know this isnt the current of this crowd, but c'est la vie. If money in the hands of government would fix problems, we'd be living in a utopia. We don't, because government is the WORST allocator or capital imaginable. By far, and it's so bad I'm not even going to argue with anyone who thinks otherwise, because you might as well argue that stars are fireflies stuck in the sky. Among the states, California takes the cake. Unions and voters in California are under a disillusion that a bunch of billionaires are going to write taxes, and suddenly, food will be free or healthcare will cost less, or anything that will benefit them in any way will happen. It wont. I am sorry, it just wont. It never has, and never will. Instead, we are going to just give the money to other contractors of the state and they will just use it on non-profits with executives making millions, ad revenue back to Google and Paramount (or whomever buys them next), and other endeavors of the state like commissioning studies for $40m with nothing ever shown for it.

This very article lists billionaires, like Sergey Brin. He created Google, a search engine which has made just about all of our lives better. Same thing with Nest, etc... We use their services voluntarily, it's why they are billionaires. We don't have a revenue problem. Our government expenditures would reduce EVERY billionaire to $0 and it would not provide for ONE YEAR of government spending. I am sorry, but thats the truth. All US billionaires are worth $8.2 Trillion. The federal government spent $13.64 Trillion in FY2025.

All this is to say nothing of the fact that these "billionaires" dont have the money to actually pay. They will have to sell off their stocks, which will collapse the price. So while they might sell 5% of their holdings, it will dwindle the market down 20%. That will affect 401Ks, Pensions, etc...

This is just a bad bad law all the way around, and we will be worse off for passing it. My signature is more relevant than ever too.

Trump wont turn on Israel. The videos Mossad have of him fucking boys on Epstein's Israeli Honeytrap Island are the knifes over his head. He will fall in line and do what he is told. US will continue to fund Israel's IDF, give them access to intelligence networks, satellites, and then supply them with missiles, bombs, Jets, iron dome replenishments so they can continue racking up the body count of people living on land they want. This will happen, regardless of how this post is modded.

Absolutely not MAGt. Read the room bro

Jew

More importantly, it gives Zionists like The Ellison family an extended reach on the media Americans can consume.

Hes the right idolized religion, he will be pardoned and spend the rest of his days in Tel Aviv.

This is why we should have a direct democracy. The people should vote. Representation was useful in the 1700s when technology couldn't manage an election every week. We need a system where we vote transparently on every law we want to vote for. We also need a system where we can propose a signature collect for laws. Bypassing congress and the "Epstein class" swamp will be a boon to America. Of course, because the current constitution is inadequate for governance in the 21st century and the current sitting leviathan wont give up his power so easily, we will have to resort to the one thing that has ever worked: Violent Revolution.

As for the issue on burner phones, I am fine with it, as long as EVERY call that is completed gets tagged to an account holder so we can end SPAM calls once and for all.

Users decide if they want an iPhone with Siri AI or some other solution (Android)?

The memory is, unfortunately. I would buy one, but there is no $100 option to add 8GB of more ram and 8GB alone isnt enough for a few years.

What a funny thing to say about something that is literally all text. Match up the code itself with the commit message and the ticket that caused it to happen - we work in the most documented business there is.

If you don't force/write good commit messages then you get what you deserve.

If you don't force/use good issue tracking then you get what you deserve.

In general, AI now composes my commit messages. Then I delete 2/3 of it. Sometimes I'll touch it up a bit. So it is helping our process...

For every line of code in our repo I know who wrote it, when they wrote it, what they said about writing it, and why they started to write it in the first place. If you don't know those things then you (or your organization) are doing it wrong.

This. In fact I think it is downright irresponsible. If this guy found the bugs there is a high likelihood others may have as well. Releasing bugs to the public is the better safer approach when finding a zero day, because it gives users a chance to self-mitigate risks before software can be patched. If you tell me there is a risk using my cars garage door opener link without my consent, I can remove that link myself, until the manufacturer releases a patch. Likewise, I can move sensitive information in th case of bit locker to an encrypted archive or some other solution in this case. The manufacturer 90 day pre-warning is not a good security posture.

For all we know, what looks to you like a one-day delay is actually a three-month delay, they just had a different launch scheduled the next day.

No. Launching a rocket is not like launching a plane. You have to get it to the platform and set it all up. You have to register with the feds. It's a whole thing. And here (well, at Vandenberg) there is just one SpaceX platform at the moment. I think they are talking about building another.

Launches slip *all the time*. I live about 50 miles from Vandenberg, so I keep an eye on when they go up to see if there's gonna be a good view. My guess is that about 25% of them slip - and when they do, mostly it's a 1 day slip.

So slipping to the next day can't be a big deal. Especially if you're planning it ahead of time. Unless you're pushing up against the next launch - which would be unusual.

Yes, there are windows for some satellites. But I think they are roughly daily with these.

This wasnt a lawsuit for control. It was a lawsuit to force profits back to the nonprofit
