It's money with extra steps.
All money is is a measure of debt. These are no different except that they replace the one-on-one trust relationships between individuals with a website that is an expense and a single point of failure.
Sounds like the same idea as https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nycmesh.net%2F [nycmesh.net] - which focuses on lower Manhattan and western Brooklyn, but with a much more 2600/hobbyist feel to it.

Maybe I'm dreaming, but I'd love it if gmail could do previews of regular text files in the same way that it displays previews of markdown (.md) files - I belong to several lists where code diffs and patches are passed about, and it's a pain to click the attachment, download it, find it in the downloads folder, read it, and then remember to delete it a month later.
If his primary goal is "to keep the day cycle consistent throughout the year", this will work perfectly at either 10 degrees North of the Equator, or 10 degrees, south, depending on how he calibrates it, and it will fail miserably everywhere else.

He also didn't consider that the days are getting shorter on one half of the planet while they're getting longer on the other half. So now we've got 2x the number of time zones than we had yesterday. Not a benefit.
One must conclude that the author has not seen a globe, or had better things to do than adjust his watch 12x a year.
I look forward to retiring to a nice cushy job writing SQL queries. Right now, it's not interesting enough, but when I get tired and all the juniors who grew up on NoSQL have no idea how to work in the old systems, I can step in for stupid amounts of money.
This has been my entire business model since about 1998.
This is actually pretty common and has gone on for a long time, especially on systems that were striving to be low-to-zero downtime.
Some of the idle processing on AS/400s would periodically re-write the microcode from disk. When I asked a core developer why, they cited gamma rays flipping a bit. I then asked if a lead umbrella wouldn't do the job better, and they said yes, but the umbrella would have to be about six feet thick.
...I'm not sure its creator would want to admit to it in public.
A SEP is indeed better.
If you are a sole proprietor or LLC, you can sock away 25% of your after-employment taxes (FICA, Medicare), and you only hit a cap if you're making over $200K/yr
If you have an S-Corp, the Corp can put 25% of your salary, pre-tax into the SEP. So you take whatever amount you billed this year, divide by 5. 4 parts become salary, the 5th part becomes your IRA contribution. It adds up fast. Then again, having the discipline to save 20% of your income adds up fast no matter what you do with it.
I can only speak from my personal experience, but I have no idea where the 60% figure was sourced. I live in NYC and it's more like 40%, and income tax rates follow the same graduated scale that a regular employee would have.
...all of my ^H^H^H jokes will be funny again.
