I also only put years on my resume. 15 years into my career and I have never once been asked to elaborate on the exact timeline of my resume. I've taken breaks, some voluntarily and some not so much. If I ever take a multi-year break I

In the same vein, the Raspberry Pi RP2040 has what they call Programmable IO modules which are tiny cores that can run small state machines doing whatever you want, separate from the main ARM cores.

That's fair, and I'm definitely not advocating tax fraud or anything of the sort. There's a $400 minimum for filing Schedule SE but no minimum for Schedule C. That said, it's _exceedingly_ unlikely (basically impossible,
