But they are very similar. There are differences in methodology (housing, healthcare) but those generally add a small amount to US inflation chained index vs HICP.</p>

<p>IIUC their advertising machine isn't quite as general as the networks of Google and Meta, and gains a large portion of its revenue from ads on Amazon Retail, which may not be competitive.<p>It's a guess as to the root cause.</p>

<p>What does Amazon use for their ads network?<p>My guess is that it just isn't competitive and so Twitch can't monetize.<p>Or maybe it is the demographic. But the ads network is my first guess.</p>

<p>The IRS should play try to create an actual MVP. Create an API which allow for efile (which I assume already exists given turbotax) and create an API which allows the download whatever information the IRS has on the tax payer.<p>Then allow companies or open source software to create whatever value add they want on top of these APIs.<p>That sounds like a minimalist launch.</p>

<p>Good for Japan.<p>The copyright claims are spurious, the laws were never written with such powerful algorithms in mind. If copyright applies to training, and if law is based upon principles instead of raw power then such a ruling would lead to strange places.<p>Bravo.</p>

<p>I see that many have noted that this is not inflation adjusted, which would be a good start.<p>But more importantly, this needs to be as a percentage of the total infrastructure (or real estate to make it easier to compute) in the area.<p>IIUC as a percentage of total real estate value the amount of damage has been going down over time, as one would expect.</p>
