Ich weiß, dass die Tatsache, dass die Brille Videos aufnehmen kann bereits übergriffig ist. Ich bin für ein generelles Verbot. Genehmigungen kann es bestimmte Situationen geben.

THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE PROJECT GRANT PROGRAM EXCEPT IT IS UNDERFUNDED. Breaking it, redesigning it, etc, cannot fix this.

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854

Taxing Entrepreneurial Wealth: Evidence from
Norway, 2021-2025
Marius A. K. Ring
WORKING PAPER 35854|
DOl 10.3386/w35854
ISSUE DATE October 2026
Whether imposing higher taxes on business owners adversely affects business activity by constraining investment and inducing capitalist flight is a central question in the ongoing debate on how to tax the ultra wealthy. To shed new light, I exploit a series of related Norwegian reforms during 2021-2024 that increased dividend tax rates, removed migration-related capital gains tax loopholes, and nearly doubled the effective marginal tax rate on business wealth. These reforms spurred international debate and, allegedly, an "exodus" of Norwegian billionaires (Financial Times,
2023). While I document clear effects on migration, these responses are concentrated among the top 0.1% of the wealth distribution and mostly confined to 2022 and 2023. My results indicate that at most 100 individuals left due to the reforms. I find no evidence of significant outmigration or reduced inflows of startup founders or inventors. I estimate that absent any outmigration, wealth tax revenues would have increased by 75% from 2021 to 2024. Reform-driven outmigration lowers the revenue gain to 71.5%. My findings further show that outmigrating owners' firms remain economically active and do not reduce investment. In a broader set of analyses, I examine whether business outcomes are affected, regardless of whether owners outmigrate, since firms may reduce investment both due to liquidity constraints or distortions to owners' savings decisions. I compare firms owned by Norwegian individuals subject to the wealth tax with firms owned by foreigners and other tax-exempt entities. By merging historical ownership data from Orbis with the Norwegian shareholder register, I perform these analyses on both Norwegian and foreign-domiciled firms.
Across settings, I find no evidence that Norwegian-owned firms pay out more dividends or invest less after the reforms,…

That he got into this situation after using an AI doesn't mean he got into it because of using an AI.

He ended up in a very strange location relative to the regular trail. I did a test and asked an AI about the same peak and the information was accurate, including the duration and degree of difficulty. 1/2

It even felt hard in 2011 when I took this picture of a friend skiing down the Coleman-Deming route. One can bring a tent and do it in two days but that's a lot of gear to carry.

I don' think the person used AI for navigation and I don't think there is a causal relationship between using AI for planning and losing the trail. But there is a common cause for using AI and for losing the trail: the person has little experience, which is normal for a 16 year old.

Genau! Bei der EU geht es nicht um Plattentektonik. Es spricht im Prinzip nichts gegen eine Vollmitgliedschaft.

“Just 1.7 per cent of professors were 65 or older in 2000. By 2024, that proportion had risen to 12.1 per cent. One-quarter of full-time Canadian academic staff are now over age 60, while less than 15 per cent are under 40. There are now more professors aged 69 or older than under 35.”
