You and your spouse can each give that amount, which doubles the number if you are married. Also if you go over, you need to file a gift tax form, but you would simply be eating into your lifetime exemption, which several million dollars be

bash’s ‘if’ command will executes its arguments and enters the clause if the exit code is non-zero. Usually we use “[“ which is the test built-in to accomplish this (like “if [ $n -gt 5 ]”), which works the same way. But here the script use

While I agree, I’d also argue that some companies put out purposefully bad policies and then staff customer service reps to handle the blow back. These situations are often really bad for the consumers and the staff.

I think the sad fact, addressed in the article, is that the bill wasn’t going to pass without industry support. Oftentimes this means either a) limited recourse for failing to comply, and/or b) new barriers to entry to smaller organiza

I tried this with quinoa today. It did not puff, but it tasted fully cooked with a nice carmelized flavor similar to popcorn. It worked really well on top of a salad. Here's my recipe: - Heat one cast-iron or heavy bottomed pot under m

I just tend to wrap my timer callbacks in a requestAnimationFrame, which should delay processing when the page isn’t visible. I guess this is a hack, but it’s been with me for so long now.

I agree, esp. since GP asked for an explanation of Web3 (the Ethereum one). I really think we should just ban crypto from HackerNews since the conversations are the lowest quality on this site.

The claim is weird, though. If they said “just add to boiling water and turn off immediately” then they would claim it’s 100% more efficient*. If you turn off your water right before it’s boiling and cook your pasta, then Barilla is an ener

There is clearly speech that is harmful without considering that case. Basically the entire concept of “conspiracy” is harmful speech. That said, Twitter is a private company and the First Amendment isn’t the holding factor.
