And this is how I understand it would work in the UK:
If you take them now, you pay income tax on them.
If the price goes up and you sell, you pay capital gains tax on the profit.
Capital gains tax is charged at a different rate to income tax.
Wait until the price rises then cash in your options and sell.
You then only pay the income tax as the gain between the time you exercised your options and when you sell them is less.
If you do this at the start of a financial year and plan to take a break from work then you could pay less income tax as the value of the sale will be offset by the tax threshold. (£4500 atm. iirc)
Linus marks his posts X-No-Archive these days to prevent them being included in the Usenet archive.
Linus came in on this thread and joined in the discussion, unfortunately his side of things isn't there you have to look in the plan9 version of the archive here
an example of Linus' humble prose (I'm not saying any of this is the wrong thing to say but some of it is not very as humble as you suggest):
(3) Implementation sucks. Irix and Plan-9 both get it wrong, and they _pay_ for it. Heavily. The Linux code is just better....
And the plan-9/irix thing isn't. It's an abomination....
You don't like it. Fine. I don't care. You're myopic, and have an agenda to push, so you want to tell others that "you can't do that, it's against my agenda"....
Welcome to the real world, Neo.
Stop playing around with those examples your professors showed you. They had no relevance....
I can speak the newspeak as well as anybody else.
But when I speak it, I realize when I'm full of shit....
For example, tin whiskers have been observed to form on tin finished surfaces that had been exposed to hot oil dip to fuse the tin (a known mitigating process) [Cunningham and Donahue, 1990]. Adding a trace amount of another element (i.e. Pb or Bi) has been shown to reduce the tendency of plating to grow whiskers.
PCI express brings the promise of more modularization with, hopefully, optical interconnects.
Parallel busses mean lots of wires all the same length to negate timing differences, a serial bus will eliminate this. No doubt it will introduce other engineering constraints. Environmentally hazardous printed circuit board manufacturing for PC production could well be significantly reduced.
All being well it will become the grand unified bus !
When the Windows weenies dump last year's top of the range model so that they can finally run SQL Server you can pick them up at a fraction of the cost and use them for what they were made for;)
Now tell me your GPL is more free than the BSD license.
who says it is, certainly not me ?
He's complaining that he doesn't like the fee for my code. That fee is that he gives me access to the source code of his derived work, should I want to buy the binary from him.
If it was non-free software, people wouldn't pay me because they would feel threatened by a binary only implementation locking them in to a solution they couldn't change.
There are no closed alternatives because it is all custom code.
Free software or no-software. They would rather have free software they paid me to write.

Maybe you missed the part of the discussion where we said we were talking about 1992.

Maybe you have problems when there are so many of those pesky word things in the way. Here, let me help
"Linus is just such a humble and polite person. He still is today."
What are this "ignorent" of which you speak?
I would hate to have lived so long and been ignorant of their existence.

Each module tutor is listed, with their telephone number and email address
you can also try contacting the Undergraduate Coordinator

Of course you could also VISIT the place and ask real people.
It is your future, gamble with it if you like.
blah blah blah

who says it is, certainly not me ?
He's complaining that he doesn't like the fee for my code. That fee is that he gives me access to the source code of his derived work, should I want to buy the binary from him.
randomizing the variables doesnt guarantee anything.
It might even mean that no local maxima are *ever* found
If he didn't choose his course why is he there ?
Perhaps I have missed something about US education. Here we get to choose what we study (grades permitting).
If he wants *any old code* and not *my* code then so what?
He's complaining that *my* code doesn't suit *his* needs!
a remote shell doesn't necessarily mean a CLI
You can't get root running an X Server ?
or VNC ?
you wont get a CLI if you do this to root it either
scp bad_code remote:bin/
ssh remote "chmod 755 ~/bin/bad_code && ~/bin/bad_code"
They might converge on a point of attraction that is not the highest possible.
Sure the only way is to exhaustively search the "chromosome" space for every possibile combination, and computers are good at brute force!
okay, I would like 0.01% of the revenue then please ?
Sorry your argument still just doesn't cut it.
If it's 0.01% of the code and it's so trivial why didn't they write it.
If it's so un-trivial then I would like recompense. The recompense I have offered the is GPL release of your code should you distribute it.
They are my terms, like or lump!
what about the people who pay for free software, can they bitch about the warezed versions of non-free ?
So you want to take my GPL software, incorporate it into your closed source project and sell it back to me ?
And because you can't to this you are complaing that the GPL is your enemy ?
well thank fuck for the GPL !!!!!
So why didn't you research your course before attending ?
I develop software for a living. People pay me.
If it was non-free software, people wouldn't pay me because they would feel threatened by a binary only implementation locking them in to a solution they couldn't change.
There are no closed alternatives because it is all custom code.
Free software or no-software. They would rather have free software they paid me to write.
nonsense
see the difference between add-on and program
"shell" is nothing special for defining the kind of access
it doesn't mean "command line access"
go look up "graphical shell"

shush, retard
Unfortunately by doing so, very few people would be buying expansions, a very telling story of the nature of their game.
This prediction is wrong, you will see that this model is a success.

10% is a substantial amount.
