  • Implicit in “profit so much that money becomes trivial” is that they think this tax rate should apply to very high profit businesses/individuals.

    In fact the US’ top tax rate was 90% for almost a decade and over 70% for 40 years - during a time many would consider “golden years”.

    They could have worded their statement better though.

  • What’s good is that it might get them in office so they can continue making incremental progress.

    I got a heat pump this year because of the $3000 tax credit they passed - no chance of more incentives like that under Trump.

  • You have to explicitly check if the return value is an error and propagate it. You write the same boilerplate if (err) return err over and over again, which just litters your code.

    That’s only true in crappy languages that have no concept of async workflows, monads, effects systems, etc.

    Sad to see that an intentionally weak/limited language like Go is now the counterargument for good modeling of errors.

  • Well said. Even if someone is not directed by (or a member of) propaganda efforts, they should be wary that their message does not align with those efforts.

    Of course diverse opinions are welcome, but incremental positive change often requires unity around a centrist candidate leaning your way. The left side of the spectrum definitely has more friction here, as they are usually thoughtful, independent people with a wider exposure to ideas.

  • A messenger is sent by someone, and is generally unaware of the content of the message - that turn of phrase only makes sense in such a a context.

    These outlets didn’t send you here, and you personally chose to post these because their content aligns with your views and goals. You are not “the messenger”.

  • You know that choosing to post something represents an active editorial choice though, right?

    Your activity in the forum has become the topic of discussion. You can’t wave your hands and say “It’s not me, take it up with someone else”.
