Le mythe de l'exil fiscal massif et cas de hausse de la participation des ultra-riches est un élément de langage purement fictionnel, qui en réalité ne repose sur aucune base économique ou sociale

Taxer les riches ne les fait pas fuir
Une nouvelle étude du Conseil d’analyse économique (CAE) se penche sur l’exil des plus riches en cas de hausse de la fiscalité les concernant. Elle conclut que le phénomène est très marginal.

RIP FireWire, the best bus ever. It enabled me to:

- Boot a broken Mac from an iPod and run all the diagnostic tools I needed
- Do networking
- Turn a Mac into an external harddrive with target mode
- Capture footage from a DVcam

Missed, but not forgotten.

FireWire Is Officially Dead
It had a good 26 year run.

There is no such thing as an overreaction with what has now happened. This is the line in the sand.

Every red hat who supports killing Americans is a traitor.

The Presidents Budget Request for NASA is out. It’s a bloodbath

Canceled are DAVINCI, VERITAS, Juno, OSIRIS-APEX, US participation in ExoMars and EnVision…

Huge cut to R&A. No funding to begin development of the Uranus Orbiter.

If you’ve ever cared about NASA, time to contact congress.

Chasse aux IVG au Royaume-Uni. Énième démonstration d’un État capitaliste toujours prêt à mobiliser ses outils de surveillance pour maintenir l’ordre patriarcal et déposséder les femmes de leur corps.

Soutien à toutes les femmes qui subissent ces violences. Nos corps ne leur appartiendront jamais.

C9M : le vol noir des corbeaux
Les néonazis défilent dans Paris, 80 ans après la chute du IIIème Reich. Des tatouages aux tambours, les références au nazisme sont multiples. La préfecture reste aveugle et sourde.

Ils se présentent comme patriotes mais ont tous les atours des néonazis. Comme chaque année, ils ont paradé dans les rues de Paris

les chefs de partis sont des gros bébés capricieux à qui on passe tout parce qu'ils ont réussi à mentir suffisamment bien pour qu'on les pense brillants

ainsi tous les partis sont dirigés par d'excellents menteurs, bons orateurs mais médiocres penseurs avec égo surdimensionné

rien de nouveau, donc

Strong disagree.

It's still a great time to be a young man, relative to every other age/gender combination. There are plenty of better and healthier pathways.

If you like the right-wing message, or don't care to steer your sons away from it? Just say that.

But life is not harder for men and boys.
It's a brutal time for young men, and to be raising one. The primary message they now is get is "YOU'RE BAD" without any meaningful attempt to offer healthy pathways beyond "Don't be a boy."

Absolutely perfect time for right wing monsters to sweep in with shitty answers.

If you know any company or organisation who could help the Oregon University Lab (OSUOSL)? They are a notoriously huge Open Source sponsor (funds, hosting) for the past 2 decades

Eugenicists are so stupid.
The U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services has repeatedly claimed: “If you’re healthy, it’s almost impossible to die from an infectious disease in modern times.”

That is dangerously false.
