They are following the letter of the lemon law in each state. In some states you can get back all the maintenance, interest and so on... in some states you get back what you paid (pro-rated for mileage). Texas has poor lemon laws, so we g

I think there is a debate of when ‘life’ happens. And that more or less everyone is against removing life that has already happened (directly, not in an underfunding school nutrition and living wages sorta way). So the side that believes

I’m not sure I follow, are you saying that there is a ‘anti-life’ group that believes women should be required to have state required abortions? I’m not being saracastic; I would like you to elaborate on the ‘anti-life / anti-choice’

Also, a state like Texas has no currently available child ICU beds, and is still have legal fights over if anyone can issue a mask mandate at the local level. ICU bed capacity only does so much.

Convincing a buyer to be a ‘payment’ buyer is an old trick in the car market. Don’t fall for it - always buy on price and then let the payments work out. With all the online calculators and soft pull applications (no credit hit, but accur

The most powerful thing about jq, IMO is that is can alter some of the json without having to parse and convert to an object all of the json. It is like using data transformation lasers.

Range deterioration is an issue for uncooled batteries in hot climates. For example, gen 1 Nissan leafs were suffering in Arizona. But most everyone else uses active cool, which really slows the degradation. You can't really apply s

I assume that these are meant to be universally understood. If the tests were given in fishing villages, it may have been a much easier premise since much of their world is defined by the tides.

I love R, and tidyverse is fantastic (to the point where you could say that I really love tidyverse and tolerate R). But why is this being upvoted/ posted here? Is there something new, or is it just new to some folks?

I think the difference is that you know that you 'intended' to put the money in the correct account, but the government doesn't care about intent, it only cares about what actually happened. Furthermore, I'm not sure th

The really messed up thing about this is the tax implications. The doctor gets a write off for his 'losses'; his tax bill it lower. The patients are subject to paying tax on this as-if it were income (because they received $X of

Refining oil takes power... and if you use (cheap) clean power to convert the rough hydrocarbons into refined gas fuel or other higher end hydrocarbons... you're making it pollute less (viewed from the lifecycle) and cheaper. So in a w
