Same when I got on ocd meds. Love being able to go and do a thing without compulsively making lists of every other tasks that I could be doing.

Economics is just psychology masquerading as a hard science
Rents are skyrocketing because demand is high and we literally do not have enough housing for the number of people we have in the places they live.
Suddenly dumping more money into the economy would just increase the price bar on that demand, and prices would go up more.
Prices can increase for a lot of reasons, and going up from one doesn’t stop them from going up from another.
I remember I’d just happened to buy a resin 3d printer, and so had bought a few masks to use for that. I got into printing and painting Warhammer because of the pandemic. Still have a a small army that’s entirely printed and about 3/4 painted from that time.
Similarly, from an engineer’s perspective, scientists are a great addition to the working group when you need to find the flaws in the system, but awful when you actually just need something to go into the real world and work 80% of the time ;)
Especially when you’re time constrained.

They could store the families in a separate underwater bunker built on the ruins of a death cult’s sunken wizard tower too.
Program management system for the entire division? Excel. “Agile” task tracker? Excel. Requirements manager? Oh no no, that one’s written in a word document with no version control. I have trauma. Use tools made for the thing you want to do, please.
The room is pitch black, you’re relying on dark vision, and you just failed your perception check. I can definitely see this happening outside of bad DM’ing, and I think the PC being sus of a blank room in an otherwise dangerous dungeon could also be in character.
If they were able to meet the actual up/down metrics for the subsidy, I don’t see why they shouldn’t get it. But they weren’t able to do that, so they don’t get the subsidy.
Is this a US thing I’m too French to understand?
I’d say likely yes to this. It’s much easier to centrally govern a more geographically dense and homogeneous country.
In the US we have strong localized government (city/county, state) and the more sweeping Federal government.
And they do submit to central government, that’s exactly what the discussion in this article is about- will the central court decide to strike down their local laws?
For middle incomes in the NCR in DC or MD it’s usually cheaper to get the same thing in VA, on an income tax basis alone.
A friend would use "theydies and gentlethems"for dramatic effect
For some reason I kept imagining sending this post back in time to Benjamin Franklin and how he would react
Was thinking of this pod while reading the post. So good
I’d assume it’s a Federally levied property tax, the rebate applied to Federal income. Could be on the basis of the county assessed value of your property though.
I’ve been a meat eater my whole life, and a well made impossible burger is pretty damn close. There’s nothing “not meat-y” about it like I’ve experienced with beyond meat. I even use it to make my biscuits and gravy now because I can’t tell the difference at all in that.
Alternatively, I’ve met plenty of people who are so desperate to climb the ladder that, even knowing full well their deficiencies, they climb to a level where those deficiencies become detrimental for everyone around them.
If you aren’t a good organizer, and climb into an organization centric position, that’s 100% on you. If you aren’t a good leader and take a coordinating position, that’s on you. If you aren’t good at lining up blind screws, and you knew that was a core competency for your job when you took it, that’s on you. It’s not that I expect you to be “smart enough to overcome” whatever you’re bad at, but you shouldn’t be in positions where something you’re bad at, but can’t overcome, is a major part of your duties.
At that point, yes, I’m going to be “mean” and directly point out your deficiencies.
Can you tell I had a fun meeting today?
Stenographers usually use something pretty similar so I doubt it. The ones I’ve seen (to be fair, live captioners, not stenographers) use something that’s closer to a piano than a normal keyboard, and it types full words rather than letters, but also has a regular typing functionality. Pretty cool to watch honestly.
I can visualize this so clearly and it feels like a fever dream
