Article about remote work

It may be over of IP BOX (5%) in 2025.

This article (which can be viewed using a paywall remover) shows that even if someone does not deal directly with code, the court may think otherwise:

Fiskus i NSA nie pozwalają na niższą stawkę ryczałtu W sprawie, która doszła do NSA, spór ze skarbówką zaczął się od wniosku o interpretację informatyka prowadzącego jednoosobową działalność. Napisał, że zajmuje się projektowaniem i rozwojem technologii informatycznych dla sieci i systemów komputerowych lub ich poszczególnych składowych/komponentów. Świadczy też usługi pomocy technicznej. Szczegółowo opisał wszystkie czynności. Podkreślił też, że do zakresu jego obowiązków nie należy tworzenie oprogramowania. Dlatego uważa, że ma prawo do niższej stawki ryczałtu. Fiskus miał jednak inne zdanie. Uznał, że informatyk powinien płacić 12 proc. ryczałt, ponieważ „okoliczność, że do zakresu obowiązków podatnika nie należy tworzenie oprogramowania komputerowego, nie jest wystarczającą przesłanką do uznania braku związku świadczonych usług z oprogramowaniem”.

Informatyk zaskarżył interpretację, przegrał jednak zarówno w pierwszej, jak i drugiej instancji. Wojewódzki Sąd Administracyjny w Gliwicach zauważył, że z wniosku o interpretację wynika, iż świadczone usługi są związane z rozwojem systemu SAP. Ten system jest oprogramowaniem wspomagającym prowadzenie przedsiębiorstwa. Opisane usługi są więc niewątpliwie związane z oprogramowaniem – uznał gliwicki WSA. Za szerokim rozumieniem pojęcia „usługi związane z oprogramowaniem” opowiedział się też NSA. Podkreślił, że nie chodzi tylko o programowanie, ale również inne czynności. Także te, które wykonuje przedsiębiorca.

Sąd wymienił wszystkie obowiązki informatyka i po prostu stwierdził, że są to usługi związane z oprogramowaniem. Po NSA spodziewałbym się głębszej analizy i dokładnego określenia, które z wymienionych czynności spełniają to kryterium. Miejmy nadzieję, że kolejne orzeczenia będą wnikliwsze. I po głębszych rozważaniach może okaże się, że to jednak podatnicy mają rację – podsumowuje Piotr Sekulski

Law: The Way of the Ancestors

If the federal government had access to every email you’ve ever written and every phone call you’ve ever made, it’s almost certain that they could find something you’ve done which violates a provision in the 27,000 pages of federal statues or 10,000 administrative regulations. You probably do have something to hide, you just don’t know it yet.

Not anymore.

And now, in 2024, almost all of those are gone, or severely limited.

There's an interesting linkage going on here between the industrial revolution (and thus possibly Capitalism) with the creation and even litigation of "the poor" classes in Britain.

Did "the poor" exist in the same way they do today prior to the Industrial Revolution? What are the subtle differences? (Compare with Thompson, E. P. “Time, Work-Discipline, and Industrial Capitalism.” Past & Present, no. 38 (1967): 56–97.)

Die amerikanische Behörde zur energieregulation Regulierung hat die Bestimmung für Stromnetze radikal reformiert um die Produktion erneuerbarer Energien zu fördern. Unter anderem müssen Netzbetreiber für den voraussichtlichen Bedarf in 20 Jahren planen. Einer neu einen neuen Bericht zufolge werden 50% der positiven Effekte des Inflation reduction Act für die Senkung der Emissionen verloren gehen wenn die amerikanischen Stromnetze nicht grundsätzlich gründlich überholt werden. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/13/climate/electric-grid-overhaul-ferc.html?region=BELOW_MAIN_CONTENT&block=storyline_flex_guide_recirc&name=styln-climate&variant=show&pgtype=Article

Die rohölproduktion in den USA wird in diesem Jahr ein Rekord-Hoch erreichen Etwa 25% der US-Emissionen werden durch Öl und Gas verursacht, das auf Bundesterritorien gefördert wird. Die New York Times zeigt ausgehend von einem Beispiel im Golf von Mexiko, warum es angesichts der Mehrheitsverhältnisse in Repräsentantenhaus und Senat und des konservativen obersten Gerichtshofs für die für die Biden-Administration extrem schwierig ist, die Zusage, dort keine weiteren Bohrungen zuzulassen, umzusetzen.

https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/28/climate/biden-drilling-leases.html

In den USA führen wachsende Datencenter, die u.a. durch die Industriepolitik steigende Produktion in Fabriken und immer mehr Elektrofahrzeuge zu einem steilen Anstieg des Bedarfs nach Elektrizität. Der zusätzliche Verbrauch wird in fünf Jahren etwa dem jetzigen Kaliforniens entsprechen. Die bestehenden Klimaziele werden dadurch gefährdet. Viele neue Gaskraftwerke werden bereits projektiert, unter anderem, weil die Regulierungen fossile Energien begünstigen. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/03/13/climate/electric-power-climate-change.html

Der Guardian kritisiert in einem Editorial den Verzicht auf Kernelemente des Green Deal in der europäischen Agrarpolitik, darunter die Nicht-Verabschiedung des Nature Restoration Law. Er verweist auf eine Umfrage, die zeigt, dass eine Mehrheit in Europa eine konsequentere Klimapolitik unterstützt.

Die EU hat nicht erreicht, dass Mittel aus dem Inflation Reduction Act auch zur Subventionierung des Kaufs von aus der EU gelieferten privaten E-Autos verwendet werden. Bei der Entscheidung der USA, die in der EU-Wirtschaft vielfach als protektionistisch bewertet wird, spielt die Herkunft von Mineralien eine große Rolle. Die Verhandlungen über das Critical Minerals Agreement (CMA) führten nicht zu einer Einigung. Der Handelsblatt-Artikel stellt den komplexen Hintergrund ausführlich dar und berichtet auch über weitere Verhandlungen.

Das österreichische Klimaschutzministerium stellt in diesem Jahr 150 Millionen Euro Subventionen für den Ausbau erneuerbarer Energien zur Verfügung. Dabei geht es im Wesentlichen um gewerblichen Nutzung. https://www.derstandard.de/story/3000000212023/klimaministerium-stellt-heuer-150-mio-euro-f252r-214kostromausbau-bereit

1834 was also interesting with respect to this thesis as Britain was working at the "principles of 1834" which Beatrice Webb focused on and debunked in English Poor Law Policy (1910).

see: https://hypothes.is/a/NLJSJAe7Ee2xvIeHyTL7vQ

Would this 1832 work in Britain have bleed over to a similar set of poverty principles in the United States in the same era? Could this have compounded issues in America leading to greater class divisions in the decades before the Civil War?

machine translation:

The remarkable thing about this statement is that it clearly expresses what we might call, in systems theory terms, the production of complexity by selection. The basic idea is that the Zettelkasten, when set up correctly, must be able to generate much more complexity than was introduced into the Zettelkasten. This is precisely the case if its internal structure, as Luhmann (1992a, p. 66) put it, enables “independent combinatorial performances”, so that what the Zettelkasten has to communicate with each query is always much more than that user himself had in mind.

Perhaps a usable quote to support my own theory, but certainly nothing new to me.

Perhaps some interesting overlap with Ashby's law of requisite variety here? Perhaps an inverse version for creating variety and complexity?

Naughton, John. “Ashby’s Law of Requisite Variety.” Edge.org, 2017. https://www.edge.org/response-detail/27150.

Ashby's law of requisite variety may also be at play for overloading our system 1 heuristic abilities with respect to misinformation (particularly in high velocity social media settings). Switching context from system 1 to system 2 on a constant basis to fact check everything in our (new digital) immediate environment can be very mentally and emotionally taxing. This can result in both mental exhaustion as well as anxiety.

It would seem that people who spend too much time online experience more anxiety. Could it be that we've evolved to only be able to manage so many inputs and amounts of variety of those inputs? The experiencing of too much variety in our environments and the resultant anxiety may be a result of the limits of Ross Ashby's law of requisite variety within human systems.

This may also be why chaos machines like Donald Trump are effective at creating anxiety in a populace whose social systems are not designed to handle so many crazy ideas at once.

The idea that people need costly training paid for with extorted money to know not to sick an attack dog on an unarmed surrendering suspect surrounded by law enforcement officers - against the protests of highly trained law enforcement officers - is absurd.

Also, it wasn't a Sheriff's K-9 officer, it was Circleville Police K-9 Officer Ryan Speakman.

Per the #JustPowers clause of The Declaration of Independence, people can't grant powers they don't have to Gov, including legislators.

Since I can't justly extort my neighbors to fund things I want, like training for local police, the legislature cannot justly do this either.

The alternative would be to fund police training voluntarily through donations to a "training fund". Then the police funding would depend on what the local community is willing to support - not the whims of politicians.

"Law enforcers" are mercenaries hired to impose political edicts on the masses, and they are funded with money extorted unjustly from the populace.

They are predators on the people, not protectors as they are portrayed in media propaganda. Their only job is to keep the political racketeers tax slaves in-line.

From Title 7-AGRICULTURE CHAPTER 54-TRANSPORTATION, SALE, AND HANDLING OF CERTAIN ANIMALS

§2131. Congressional statement of policy The Congress finds that animals and activities which are regulated under this chapter are either in interstate or foreign commerce or substantially affect such commerce or the free flow thereof, and that regulation of animals and activities as provided in this chapter is necessary to prevent and eliminate burdens upon such commerce and to effectively regulate such commerce, in order-

(1) to insure that animals intended for use in research facilities or for exhibition purposes or for use as pets are provided humane care and treatment;

(2) to assure the humane treatment of animals during transportation in commerce; and

(3) to protect the owners of animals from the theft of their animals by preventing the sale or use of animals which have been stolen.

The Congress further finds that it is essential to regulate, as provided in this chapter, the transportation, purchase, sale, housing, care, handling, and treatment of animals by carriers or by persons or organizations engaged in using them for research or experimental purposes or for exhibition purposes or holding them for sale as pets or for any such purpose or use.
