Withholding isn't relevant here. Non refundable means it can't cause the government to net pay you money: that is to say, it can't make your refund larger than your withholding.

Sure it is! If we were trying to compress an archive of orbital data, one way to do it would be "initial positions + periodic error correction". If you have the new planet, your errors will be smaller and can be represented in les

Re: auto generated code: it saves ci time which is a pretty huge benefit. You still need to regenerate the code to make sure it's up to date, but you can do that in parallel with tests that rely on that code.

High school is a bit under a third of school years in the US, so that's a high school of about 3000 (which is how big my high school was, for example).

You need a heat difference, not just heat, to generate electricity. Now my sibling comment links to a paper where they say they can find heat differences in the body that are sufficient for their needs, so this is still a possibility! But i

Sure, but you can make it as progressive as you want by redistributing the tax income back to people.

I think odds ratio ( p/(1-p) ) is the thing I'd use here. It gives the right limiting behavior (at p ~= 0, doubling p is twice as good, and at p~=1, halving 1-p is twice as good) and it's the natural way to express Bayes rule

I came to rust from the other direction, as it were: from Haskell. There are a lot of similarities! The type systems are similar, with some name changes (sum types -> enums, typeclasses -> traits). Pattern matching is basically the sa

I mean, these are all valid criticisms of the swimming experience, it just sounds silly because you can't edit swimming.

I realize this is a joke, but it isn't! Play a video of a ball flying up and then back down again and it'll be the same forward or backwards (up to air friction anyway).

I don't think Will's experience supports that. It's not that he gave some consent that, looking back on it, wasn't valid. Instead, he repeatedly and explicitly did not consent, and was ignored.

"Incorrect" is way too strong here. I agree that a reference frame that has about the same velocity as the stuff you care about is in some sense privileged. But the fact that we haven't seen the merger happen yet means that i

You indeed don't have to pay long term capital gains tax, although you do have to pay short term capital gains tax.

Json diffing. I haven't found any implementations I'd consider good. The problem as I see it is that there are tree based algorithms like https://webspace.science.uu.nl/~swier004/publications/2019-i... a

You can make a consumption tax progressive! You'd probably want to make it a bit more progressive than the current income tax brackets, to cancel out the effect you're describing. Re: implementation: make putting money into a bank
