And even if you did get the 60k and never can find work again are you gonna be happy about the next door neighbor working for 120k and getting his 60k on top?


Well I can tell you that I work 40+ hours a week and am very unhappy my neighbor has a more expensive house than me. Someone should do something!


All the proposals I’ve seen would set the marginal tax rate on the 120 so high that his earnings would end up more like 40k from the 120k job and then he gets his 60. So, still some benefit to working, but a very progressive tax rate on higher earnings. Not sure I agree with this, but that is what I’ve seen.


> 40k from the 120k job

I would not get up in the morning in such case.


Your neighbor would get $60K UBI but their tax bill would go up by $80K because the government needs tax revenue to pay the UBI.

For high levels of UBI it’s not possible to get all of the necessary tax revenue from taxing billionaires or corporations or other simplistic ideas that sound good unless you do math.


same, i really love it and i hove my hands typing so they've never caused pain anyway


I know someone who is using a vibe coded or at least heavily assisted text editor, praising it daily, while also saying llms will never be productive. There is a lot of dissonance right now.


nice to know i'm not specifically fucked here i guess


i own app3 and have not updated it asks you and warns you some ai features won't work but they pair and function fine after that.


For myself, the two features (which are not iOS 26 related) are being able to see them in FindMy, and having access to case sound and battery notification volume options.


I like the function but it does all feel just a bit off and half backed. Im relatively hopeful it'll get there.


I've found if you prompt a persona with these expectations GPT is pretty good at honoring it.
