But competitors do the same

Being pro businesses, it's only available for big corporations because as a self-employed, it's close to 30%.

I'm SE and there are quite a few tax breaks available, especially if you structure as a S-Corp. The hard part is figuring out what all tax breaks are available as they're constantly changing, like last year you can deduct dental insurance premiums.

I still pay an eye watering amount, and being SE shows you the brutality of the system (estimated taxes are insane, especially the payment schedule for them when you're NET 30/60).


> estimated taxes are insane, especially the payment schedule for them when you're NET 30/60

Total layman understanding here, but can you not do cash basis plus schedule AI?


Kinda, for Q2 and Q3 you're expected to pay the full amount for the quarter about a month or so before it ends.

Well maybe instead of complaining you should simply just generate more economic value. If Meta disappeared tomorrow it would hit the US economy, if you disappeared tomorrow it wouldn’t even be noticeable in the stock market.


Sorry that’s a horrible take. Basically you are embracing “too big to fail”.

It’s more like “might makes right” I think, and it’s not really me embracing it, as much as realizing this is the ideology of our ruling elites and they aren’t afraid to be frank about it anymore.

Another thing is that the us and European countries build their wealth where they had los standards now other countries want to do the same but would be limited by us and European countries. It's very tricky

Also, it seems to be the era where the government takes backdoor access to these services and data, as the did with social media

They said they were going to disable it for leaked keys isn't better to just disable it for leaked keys. Isn't better to make the default behavior from now on to not have access to Gemini or I misunderstood?

In other countries there is like the main bus system you take and there is another that take you to the main stops

This is the coverage vs. capacity trade-off.

Buses running between full on stations are faster than buses that comprise the network edges. Because the core of the network is focused on capacity. Buses that meander around to provide coverage, minimize walking, and stop every other block are really slow. Like 6 MPH end to end, no faster than riding a bicycle! Do we want a bus network to compete with walking/biking or with driving downtown?


These buses are for the disablities elderly problem, regular people prefer to walk a little than wait for those buses.

Checking how long would it be for me to get to work in Google maps Car 25min Bus 1h.50min It's so crazy the difference, in other countries it only doubles but in the us is 4x the time.

Wym mean external people aren't these lists integrated to the browsers? I'm sure if you try to open a website from this list your browser won't let you and I'll put a big warning sign

You can check browser behaviour here: https://testsafebrowsing.appspot.com/

"See details"> "ignore the risk" works for me. Even Chrome lets you ignore the warning if you click the details button. That's not the problem, though; the problem is that the registrar decided that the browser warning ("something might be wrong") as proof of malice (took down the domain entirely).


They did good damage control with that post

Your writing and content I'd say that's of more quality that most journalists
