Schedule C to Form 1040 (self-employment income) asks for your "Principal business or profession, including product or service". It's pretty clear that the only correct answer for some people would be something like "drug dealer".

L-1 is dual intent.

Jeff Bezos completely owns the Washington Post - there aren't any external shareholders that could be harmed, or are owed a fiduciary duty.

Musicians want to accept credit card payments (you lose a lot of potential sales if you only take crypto), which requires a central party to handle payment processing.

The US doesn't have a centrally planned economy, so the government can't lower the prices of everything. UBI is much more feasible to implement than communism.

There is: "you may not... Use Output to develop models that compete with OpenAI"

Overflowing addition is never UB in Rust - it is defined to wrap around in release builds (i.e. it would be a compiler bug if adding 1 to 255_u8 in a release build produced any value other than 0_u8).

The Stack Exchange API used to revoke API keys sent over HTTP (and return an error message), which is my favorite way to handle this.

The negligible alcohol production is just a side effect, the alcohol itself does not kill the bacteria.

It would be super expensive to use LFS to distribute this:

> Each pack costs $5 per month, and provides 50 GiB of bandwidth and 50 GiB for storage

So they would need to pay for 6 data packs (or $30) for every 300gb download.

Amazon was right to remove your review - product reviews are for reviews of the product. You never owned the product, so you can't review it.

You should have left a seller review (on the seller's Amazon page), not a product review.

I don't think amounts that are on a payment plan would qualify as "bad debt" though - if someone is paying as agreed on a payment plan the debt isn't uncollectible.

Maybe @SECGov wasn't compromised, but instead @GaryGensler was?

There actually is a bias - you will never get comic 404 from the random button (see https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/404:_Not_Found )

DoorDash is being misleading when they imply that NYC required a minimum wage of $29.93/hr for delivery workers. DoorDash could comply with the bylaw by paying its contractors $17.96/hr for the full time they work (including time waiting for orders). But DoorDash instead chose to use the "Alternate Method" which has a 67% higher minimum wage, but only for the time the contractor is actively delivering food (not standby time). (full text of bylaw: https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/newyorkcity/latest/NYC...)

The implication that Dashers earn 2x more per hour than "other workers" earning minimum wage is false, since "other workers" are paid for 100% of the time they work, including when they are waiting for work.

Keep in mind that in NYC tips are exempt from sales tax, but bids for services are not. So customers would pay 8.875% more if DoorDash stopped pretending the payments are tips.

(there is a sales tax exemption for mandatory gratuities, but that only applies where the ultimate recipient is an employee whereas DoorDash deliverypeople are independent contractors - https://www.tax.ny.gov/pubs_and_bulls/tg_bulletins/st/gratui...)

Microsoft couldn't control the OpenAI business even if it owned every unit of every LLC associated with OpenAI (except for the special units owned by OpenAI GP LLC, which is wholly owned+controlled by the non-profit). The operating agreement of OpenAI LLC (which actually operates the OpenAI business) specifies that OpenAI GP LLC (which is wholly owned and controlled by the non-profit) controls it regardless of how many units it owns.

Sam might have abstained from voting on his own ousting, since he had a conflict of interest.

People are less likely to pay their debts if they think their debts will be sold to someone who will forgive it, so the debt issuer's other non-written-off debts will be harder to collect (since now those people know that they might be able to get out of their debts by waiting and hoping they get sold to a debt-forgiver).

Post to HN and wait for a "could you email me at edwin@stripe.com and we can dig into this more" comment.

GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 have special <|im_start|> and <|im_end|> tokens that are used for this purpose. (and if you try to send a message containing those strings to ChatGPT they get filtered out)
