And if you get poisoned with 2,4-DNP, your ATP will make you into a thermal power plant before you die of uncontrolled hyperthermia!

Do your landlords not have any requirements to provide even a communal washing machine? In Sweden, and probably most other countries, the law says you have to have it within reasonable distance, otherwise the apartment isn’t considered “livable”.

Not significantly more.

Good, and you understand how the level calculations work, right? If you earn $121k, you’re only going to calculate taxes for $1k of income for example.

It sucks to pay even a cent to the US, but probably still cheaper and less risk compared to giving up citizenship – especially if you have family there that’d you’d like to be able to visit in the future.

for a consultancy in the US

That makes it a bit more complicated, but if you’re abroad over 330 days, you’d fill form 673 to prevent withholding for example. Have you not retained an accountant to help guide you through this? Based on the information you’ve shared, it seems like you’re paying a lot more into the system than you need to.

You’re earning significantly over $120k/year? Then you file a form 1116 to have a credit against foreign-paid taxes. And even then, whatever income was left over after deductions doesn’t put you automatically in the highest tax classes.

Where are you living where you’re earning so much? I know many US expats, basically no one is earning that much, much less native-born citizens. It’s the US that usually pays much more for engineering, not as much in RoW.

Is your cost of living so high that you’re unable to save any of your super high income? You don’t necessarily need to “extract wealth from other people”.

It sucks to need to file taxes to a regime you’re not residing in, but you surely understand the purpose of it? Don’t you think it’s probably a good thing that billionaires can’t just make big profits in the US and pretend they’re living in Malta?

Sorry, but as someone who has helped several high-earning expats with their US taxes, it really seems like you’re either setting hinders for yourself (intentionality or otherwise), or doing some creative writing.

have to pay taxes to the US on my income that I earn while living elsewhere

You do an FEIE deduction on your 1040. If you’re earning less than $120,000 in a year and live more than 330 days outside of the US during a tax year, you thus don’t need to pay a single dollar to the IRS.

(I agree it’s messed up that US citizens have to file taxes, but you don’t need to resign your citizenship to avoid paying US taxes - as long as you’re a bona fide resident of a foreign country and earn less than $120k.)

Free passage, but limited rights. In the US, you could move to a state with “easier” welfare programs, and collect them… whereas in the EU (Schengen), you’re not allowed to stay longer than 90 days at a time without having a job/being able to support yourself.

Or at the least, a violation of the Logan Act.

Harshest punishment requires the warning and ignoring of it.

Does it say that in the law code? I thought that being ignorant of the law doesn’t matter for most prosecutions (“ignorantia juris non excusat”)

Travel to a different state and have sex for only $100? What a cheapskate.

Both Monster and Red Bull have inositol in it, at least in Sweden.

Does he really think $500M would significantly change a city? As if the city would get any part of it, or that Dubai is something to desire…

I think the LLM whipped up some hallucinations.

But then I’m going to get even more blood on me?

If the prompt is as long and unique as other copyrightable writing (which includes short works like poems) then why shouldn’t it be copyrightable?

Okay, so the prompt can be that. But we’re talking about the output, no? My hello-world source code is copyrighted, but the output “hello world” on your machine isn’t really, no?

Am I misunderstanding what pull cords are, or why not have it so the two strings can separate easily? The two strings in my blinds “snap” together so that it’s easy to raise/lower the blinds, but the strings separate very easily from each other if applying force in any other kind of way (would be impossible for a child to accidently hang themselves with it for example)

As opposed to 500px? 😛

I think they meant that the document can look significantly different based on the software reading it? Whereas a published PDF is going to look basically the same (embedded fonts, etc)
