Some arguments against a land value tax (2024)

news.ycombinator.com Matthew Barnett 2025-09-26 00:14:21

To many people, the land value tax (LVT) has earned the reputation of being the "perfect tax." In theory, it achieves a rare trifecta: generating government revenue without causing deadweight loss, incentivizing the productive development of land by discouraging unproductive speculation, and disproportionately taxing the wealthy, who tend to own the most valuable land. That said, I personally think the land value tax is overrated. While I'm not entirely against it—and I think that several of th

Apple trade-in values have been cut for most models of iPhone, all Macs, several Apple Watches, and one iPad. Additionally, there are two older Apple products the company will no longer accept as trade-in against a new one, making them officially worthless … While Apple trade-ins represent very poor value compared to selling privately or using third-party resellers, some people prefer the ease and convenience of just taking their old device into an Apple Store when buying a new one.

Torvalds has now pulled the code in question, but also said: I think we'll be parting ways in the 6.17 merge window.

While it seems unreasonable to expect the XOR solutions in interviews, it is quite fun to figure out how they work. As it turns out, they are all based on the same fundamental trick, which we will derive in a bottom-up way in this post. Afterwards we will lo
