  • A UK headline wealth tax? It may be simpler to put up existing taxes

    Jump

  • I don't quite follow. I agree that wealth doesn't trickle down and tbh I can't tell if we agree or not generally. I can't quite follow. I think the wealthy should pay a wealth tax.

  • The 70s comparison doesn’t really hold. Healey’s 98% rate was on paper but almost nobody paid it because of loopholes and avoidance. The IMF bailout then was about 13 percent of GDP, but scaling that up to 100% doesn’t make sense. The UK borrows differently today and isn’t in that situation.

    The idea that millionaires are leaving in droves is exaggerated. A few go, most don’t, and the UK still draws plenty of wealthy people in.

    The real point is that the very rich don’t take salaries. They hold assets. Income tax doesn’t touch most of their resources, which is exactly why a wealth tax is being talked about. Saying we’d just be repeating the 70s misses what the debate is actually about.

  • Yeah, nothing happens to all of the food containers but my bottles shrivel at a warm bath.

  • What are the subtle signs that reveal you are autistic?

    Jump

  • I actually found this quite hard when I first looked into ASD. It felt like a list of all the things that I thought made me unique but were just autistic traits.

  • It appears Google has stopped publishing device-specific source code for Pixel phones

  • The discussion is about this being the first step to Google closing the source more broadly

  • what would it be like being neurotypical?

    Jump

  • Less perpetual anxiety and I imagine a slower racing brain. Sometimes I feel like I'm playing life on an emulator with fast forward constantly on. Also existing outside your brain without this layer of abstraction. I feel so aware of constituent parts of reality and seeing things as a whole.

    Less deeply effected by injustice or a lack of logic. Fewer instances of upsetting people by naturally adhering to more socially accepted ways of presenting thoughts and communicating.

    Easier, less exhausting. Though I know neurotypicals have their own struggles.

  • Which program is the one that surprised you most that it is available on Linux?

  • Zoom. No dark mode though.

  • Over Synology, and looking to build my first home lab. Could use some advice on parts...

  • Yeah I have a NUC and a QNAP RAID DAS. Works well though the DAS is on the loud side.
