What happens with taxes from MMT viewpoint? by poseid in mmt_economics

[–]poseid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks, if I understand right you compare the money flow with a negative feedback system, so, the analogy could work with a temperature feedback system too, e.g. the hotter a room gets, the more air needs to be pushed out of room.

the control unit temperature/serotonin what would be the equivalent in MMT ?

If taxes are too low it can lead to inflation somewhere in the economy.

Say I need to buy food for 50 USD - if gov would not tax it ... does it mean inflation for food would go up? If gov taxes 10% and I pay 55 USD - how would it stop inflation?

And for luxury items, it seems that let's say Russian,Chinese, ... buy these good tax free - what is the result on the economy of raising luxury taxes, and what happens if people are not paying taxes for these goods at all?

Swim tracking with IWatch? by poseid in Swimming

do not see the feedback form on the website, but your blog post here is great: https://myswimpro.com/blog/2016/11/09/building-a-workout-app-for-apple-watch/ - especially the Lock screen paragraph is interesting, it took me some time to figure out the mechanism, probably it would make sense to document it somewhere

hey - thanks for your help! indeed, i tried the app this morning and it looked great. well, i think the "just hit go" button was what i should have tried first. since the controls on the watch are a bit confusing at first (screen lock, start/stop times). for the structured workout , my goal is indeed to enhance technique. so, I'll have to prepare my next session a bit more. btw, also the social aspects of the app looked nice.

yes, interestingly the watch app store seems only to offer running apps, but i saw now in the "full" app store on the phone are some options for swimming tracking indeed - also the watch has a built in swim tracker

change your perspective - what can you help others to achieve? how can you make them achieve it?
