The company tax is slightly lower. The previous poster stated something about capitalism. The best way to curb hording of capital is by the companies paying taxes.
Ordinary working people probably pay a higher tax in Sweden than in USA, but that's a different discussion.
The conspiracy theorists fall for the same falacy that they accuse the media and cops of doing: That it's only interesting because the victim was a CEO.
If this has been any other shooting, they wouldn't be theorizing about the "message" or reasoning in his manifest. Every fucking murderer has a message or believes in a reason to do what they do.
Until the proven killer has confessed and stated an actual message, the whole thing is entirely made up by people who want to align the story to their own interest.
It would be nice if organisations were run by people who were so dedicated to the job that they'd do it for free or at least on a survival wage, but it is difficult to find someone with both the right qualifications and the willingness to do it cheaply.
The figures aren't outrageous for those positions and as a non-profit they do have a board who made the decision to pay those amounts.
It's not like a private company where the owner/CEO can just grab the money. The board members voted to hire someone and offered those amounts.
If you want to change this kind of thing, you need to attend the annual meeting in which the board is elected. I've been elected to a few board positions in non-profit organisations and let me tell you: It's really easy to get on a board. Most places have difficulties filling the positions or you can easily outcompete other candidates simply by wanting to be there. It's boring as fuck, but important stuff sometimes happens and it's a good experience to have.
So if you want to actually contribute to that non-profit, you might want to save your few dollars and instead give them some of your time to help them in the right direction. Assuming you're dedicated to the cause in the first place that is.
If you have something to say, you will be heard, because quite frankly, half the board members only come for the free food.
You know the saying: "if you owe 100 to the bank, then you have a problem, but if you owe 1 000 000 to the bank, then the bank has a problem"
For a regular person, this translates into being able to pay off 100 by working hard, but owing 100 000 is a lot harder to work off, so they'll need alternative solutions, like selling the car.
Financially speaking it's the difference between a profit/loss statement and a balance sheet. Once you have enough money, P/L doesn't matter in comparison to the balance.
Someone like Elon Musk stating that he doesn't have any money to pay is playing on this. He's all balance and no profit.
Yes sure. Code is logical stepwise. By including the "only if" it implies that other stuff is taken into account, which it isn't at that moment in code.
I mean, I don't need to extend the implications of an IF statement. It already does exactly what it says.
Anyway fuzzy logic does exist for people who want "sometimes if". It's useful in certain cases. I've only ever considered it in music production, where things very often get to the point of complexity where it makes a (sometimes) useful difference.
Definitely. I don't disagree with the statement, I just think it's poor judgement to praise the assassin, who might be a random scumbag murdering people for money, just like the CEO.
I really dislike the hero worship going on. For all we know, that particular dude might be a paid hitman.
He's not getting caught. The whole thing was obviously planned well. Never mind the professional technique and all that gun stuff, no, just consider the fact that he knew where and when to do it. How the hell did he track down the whereabouts of some relatively unknown CEO on a public street? That shows that the attack was carefully planned and of course any good plan includes an escape.
The difference is that McGhoul hasn't stopped falling. Any day now, his fall will continue straight down to hell.
