Yeah, I was surprised when I found out this is how it works. When I first signed up with a PEO I assumed it was all taken care of. But then they handed me a big list of states I needed to register with and all the very antiquated processes

In that case it's very simple for the company paying but much more work for the employee since they are the ones responsible for taxes. It's not necessarily a bad thing, but I've found many employees don't want to do it.

Some states have worker’s compensation monopolies so you have to buy it from the state. All states require that you register as a company there and pay taxes. There are PEOs like Justworks that act as the employer and file taxes for you. Bu

The fact that there isn't a feedback mechanism to let the Siri team know that it responded incorrectly tells me everything I need to know. Until they have real metrics around how often Siri fails they will continue to think that their

We are down 50% from the peak of Covid deaths in California. It seems likely we will have one or more days of zero Covid deaths before the end of May. That is the measure I assume they are going for at this point. Source: https:/&#x2F

I'm in the East Bay and was quarantining for almost a month before my symptoms showed. I also assume I got it at the grocery store since that was my only outing.

This is exactly what I was thinking. The article doesn't mention if there is a setting to temporarily allow the battery to charge to a higher percentage. I assume checking the box to not use this setting will work the same way but I wa

I didn't know that Lime shut down either. I haven't been out to see but I wonder if they collected up their scooters, or if they are all just sitting with their batteries draining. If the batteries go out entirely how will they fi

I've just gotten the paperwork for our disaster loan. The COVID loans do not have a personal guarantee. That was one of the items on the first relief bill that specified this program on March 6.

One of the last lines threw me off... "Would Tim Berners-Lee have used a BeBox to run the world’s first web server instead?" The BeBox didn't ship until 1995. Tim Berners-Lee wrote the first version of the web in 1991. So nop

As a Tesla Model S owner I'm not at all surprised that the sales of the S and X are down. They are pushing the Model 3 hard, so hard that they dropped the reasonably priced S and X models from their lineup. There is a huge price gap be

It took me a while to find out why locals were saying solar farms cause dust storms. The locals claim solar farms destabilize the soil. Dust isn’t in the interest of the energy producer because it lowers efficiency so my assumption is that
