Fascinating, that definitely doesn't mention any sterility in 3 generations, but it is a neat article.

Not particularly, but I like to read of on some of the more out there conspiracies I see.
I've literally never heard this one before, so I was curious what I'd get back. I wasn't even able to Google it.
Can you elaborate on that?
2 of those 3 careers you listed are also ones that are hard to increase productivity in.
Schools still need X number of teachers per Y number of students, but if they're hiring people that work in fields that have benefitted from increased productivity (for example any field of science or engineering that's benefitted from massive computer calculations being pretty cheap now), they need to pay more.
A doctor or a lawyer can still only handle X number of clients, but they have advanced degrees and skills in demand. They want to live like they've had advanced degrees, they want to live like a chemist, or a software engineer, etc.
But because they're productivity hasn't increased as much as the population in general, it costs relatively more of the average person's wage to hire them and keep them making similar money.
This isn't to say that cost sharing isn't also a large contributor, but it's not everything, teaching and medical practice haven't had the same increases productivity as something like accounting, and therefore cost relatively more.
It's minor, but the tab titles go grey for the out of focus window.
They should probably mute everything a little bit though.
Usually a wage garnishment at the maximum allowed by your state of residence and then the leftover ends up in the estate and if it overwhelms the assets of the estate it disappears.
That's if it can't be removed in bankruptcy (which I thought judgements in a case like this usually don't, but other posters seem to think it can).
I assume they're referring to this language in the constitution:
“To promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries.”
I would argue that vastly different locations is a strength and not a weakness. It allows for a sanity check that missing the second decimal of GPS does not.
On my computer the focused tab has a drop shadow and is brighter.
I don't like the fact that there's no divider between tabs, but overall I think it's cleaner and easier to see.
As someone that takes credit cards over the phone a few times a day, long numbers are not as easy as one may think.
Especially if there's no natural grouping for reading them out in a pattern.
W3W should be easier, and errors should be more obvious (though a few mistakes have been found with similar locations having similar words).
If I'm not mistaken, you don't get to write off the million donation of you don't take the appreciation of 100k to 1 million though, right?
The way it works for art and taxes is basically:
1) buy for a lot of money
2) die
3) pass down as inheritance at arbitrary low value
4) heirs sell it as needed, but it's skipped the estate tax
-or-
1) buy
2) sell for less (take capital gains hit)
3) purchaser can sell it for more later
This bypasses gift taxes.
You can also launder money (that is pay taxes on illegitimate earnings) by being an art investor. Basically buy a lot of art from young people when it's cheap, and if someone owes you a large sum for something illegal, have them buy the art from you through a gallery/auction/etc. If the artist has a little buzz you can inch up the price this way, and that means the pieces you still have have increase in value, and your drug money now shows up as art investing to the IRS.
I'm not sure if this will work for NFTs, since I don't think they'll keep value until the actual content is part of the NFT, but we'll see.
I'm not familiar with Power Apps, but I feel like this could teach me to use it a little more effectively pretty quickly.
It wouldn't take long to get the concept of what was possible, and the syntax looks easy to read and look over. It'd be more of a syntax learning tool than a no code solution for me, but it looks effective for a simple use case. Could probably be useful in Excel. Something like this cell equals that cell from "abc" to "123" to clip out part of a cell would be quicker than me looking up the specifics of search (or is it find) and middle (or whatever chops the middle of a string).
Doesn't every Wayland app draw itself and its window decorations? I'm not sure why it would need a desktop.
I would assume you load all the libraries, but not the actual desktop. Windows handles the window placement, and the apps handle the way they're drawn. The Linux apps can drag between each other, but likely not to/from Windows apps.
I could be wrong here, but that's how I picture it working. I also suspect you'll be able to load a desktop into a window and do it that way if for some reason you prefer.
It'll definitely improve the APUs
