Wait not like that

I just bought and restored some older but well-built deck furniture. Each piece had a badge on it with a company name and URL, but the site is long gone. Popped it into the wayback machine and instantly learned all about the furniture, its maker, and how much it cost back in the day, which was really neat.

The IRS plans to triple the audit rates on large corporations with assets of more than $250 million. Audit rates for these companies will rise to 22.6% in tax year 2026 from  8.8% in 2019.

Large partnerships with assets of more than $10 million will see their audit rates increase 10-fold, rising to 1% in tax year 2026 from 0.1% in 2019.

Wealthy individuals with total positive income of more than $10 million will see their audit rates rise 50% to 16.5% from 11% in 2019.

"There is no new wave of audits coming from middle- and low-income [individuals], coming from mom and pops. That's not in our plans," Werfel said.

Was fully prepared for the answer to this to be that a couple extra molecules evaporating don’t make a big difference, but:

Under the optimum conditions of color, angle, and polarization, Lv says, “the evaporation rate is four times the thermal limit.”

That sounds legitimately exciting!

A way that I find helpful to answer questions like this is to look backwards when taking multiple doses:

“If I were to take another pill now, would I have had no more than 1-2 pills in the last 4 hours?”

The pharmacokinetic questions are outside the scope of what the patient should be trying to figure out when taking a drug. That was the responsibility of the drug label writer and (if applicable) the prescribing physician and/or pharmacist. Yours is to faithfully follow the instructions, not make assumptions about drug residence time or loading doses.

If someone walked in with a tray of papers looking bored, I’d think little of it. These folks sneaking around like fucking scooby doo villains is so wild.

It’s an old trope, but still bugs me: Ordering food and leaving the table long before it could have arrived.

If you wanted to have a 5 second conversation, meet under a lamppost or something, not at a fucking diner!

TL;DR: Magnets. China makes almost all of them so any time we see something that might replace rare earth metals we get excited. In this case because a group made improvements to our ability to synthesize tetrataenite, an iron-nickel alloy, by adding phosphorus.

Throughout the trial, the Grenons represented themselves but did not speak in their defense, seemingly as a form of protest. They had court-appointed defense attorneys who stood by during the trial, but the Grenons did not allow them to speak for them.

In July, it took a Miami jury just 30 minutes to return the guilty verdicts for the four men, according to the Miami Herald.

The Herald reported that the men broke their silence during sentencing last week to plead for mercy and protest their prison terms.

Didn’t work out like ya hoped, huh?

So, only about a decade until reaching feature parity with something like lazygit?

The K5 has been in some sticky situations in other cities. One was toppled and slathered in barbecue sauce in San Francisco…

I don’t know why but this is just a hilarious failure state for a giant robot.

While David Bowie was not non-binary, he was an icon of androgyny and I’ve found that to sometimes be a good place to start discussions about the vast in-between spaces. It also helps keep the conversation from starting with “kids these days” because Bowie has been fly as fuck since way back when.
