Pedantically, aight, trippin, fr (at least the spoken version), and fam were all very common in the 1990s (which was the last decade I was able to speak like that without getting jeered at by peers).

Yea that seems like the vast majority of Microsoft's total worldwide revenue for a given year. The relevant number is probably the EU only fraction, and maybe just the EU governments' part. Which I'd guess is at least like 1

It might not be what the US is screening for, but if you're forced to make your account public, not just to the US, then your own government would also know.

Not on original topic, but: I definitely prefer having graphs put the unit at least on the axis, if not in the individual axis labels directly. I.e. instead of having a graph titled "latency, seconds" at the top and then way over

Idk about the rest, but Satie was like 30+ years older than Poulenc, and died a few years after Poulenc's first composition. I don't know if you can characterize them as friends. Satie's music definitely influenced Poulenc&#

Satie was a really weird dude. I really like his style of music (also Poulenc). But he was very strange. At one point he would like wear exact copies of the same clothes every day, and only eat white food (?).

What's the scope of that? Not consumer accounts I imagine? I haven't had to change my bank account passwords in over a decade.

It is also used when there's name collision If there's five people named John in the same class in school or the same team at work, it is not uncommon for all John to go by last name.

The "or you need to take away someone else’s pie" is the relevant part here The 174 changes (and SALT changes, and some other stuff) were how TCJA got balanced and passed without a 60% majority. 50%+1 is enough to undo previously

Note that LLC isn't a tax status An LLC can either file as a c corp and get corporate tax rates, or (sometimes) file as passthrough like as in a sole proprietorship. Or as a partnership. It gets complicated https://www.irs

Eyeballing it, I bet those specific restrictions are in place because: $168.6k is suspiciously the same as the (2024) social security cap, so they probably didn't handle that edge case. $250k is the start of NIIT, so they probably didn

The caveat is stated above: in a large expensive US city where a lot of these high paying tech jobs are. Over 50% of that $160k floor is eaten up by just housing and private or ACA insurance. So your housing costs for like a 1k-2k sqft spot

Yea for concrete numbers: If you have somewhere between $5M and $10M in a HCoL American city, you are probably no longer working class insofar as you could quit, get on ACA healthcare, and rent a decent house or buy / mortgage a decent
