Additionally, less moving parts should mean less failure cases that need to be addressed. As a light house lamp, less failures seems like a good thing!
The uber rich spending is generally via “business expenses”.
For example: Elon doesn’t own his private jets, SpaceX does. When he takes it down to Hawaii for a 15 minute investor meeting followed by hanging out with them for the weekend at the nicest hotels with all the fixings and flys back, that’s all business expenses that he “derived no personal benefit from”, so SpaceX writes it all off as a business expense, thus reducing their tax burden and he never personally gets taxed for it.
A less egregious example that happens considerably more: a person has a rental property that resides between their normal living area, which they consider the “home office”, and an area of interest they travel too. They go to the area of interest, but make sure to stop by the rental on the way there and back. The milage from the home to the rental is business miles, and thus they can deduct the travel expense from any business incomes.
I am not advocating for any of those, but it doesn’t really matter if these business expenses are legal because the IRS doesn’t have a great way to determine these minor abuses, and certainly doesn’t have the people power to track it down.
This will be unpopular:
Before or at the same time as we fix sub-minimum wage, we need to also address the disability benefits cliff. I personally know multiple disabled people that limit how much they are working so that they don’t hit the cutoff where all the benefits disappear, not tail off. Generally these people enjoy their work and are capable of working more, but if they earn a dollar too much, they are screwed, loosing access to a number of subsidies and medical care.
It’s a perovskite cell, so there are still a lot of longevity issues to be worked out.
This is a really smart work around! Thanks! I would still appreciate if I didn’t have to use an alt, so I am going to leave this post up.
Love the app and love the work you are doing on it! Thanks a bunch! I am running into one minor issue:
Right now if you block a community, then search for the community, it shows, but it will appear that there are no post in the community.
Ideally, if I am accessing a community from the search, even if I have blocked it, I would still like to see the post in it rather than having to unblock it.
For example, I almost exclusively use “All” and “Home”, in “All” political subreddits can get over bearing so I blocked it, but when I want to go look at the community in light of recent events, they all show as blank.
Ideally I would love a warning on the search page that I have blocked the community, but clicking into it will still show me all the post of the community.
Always has been.
The craziest part is that the facility believed to be the source of the jamming is estimated at only $6.7m to make.

It really just goes to show how disconnected the cost and the price are.
From the airline’s perspective they have an empty seat they could have sold to someone else, likely at a higher price, so it is lost revenue, but that assumes that every traveler wants to pay more.
About the only valid argument against skip lagging is the airport disembarkation fees being different.
If I read it correctly, an image of one of the slides says that it has been confirmed by 2 independent parties.
I kind of understand space agencies not trying these out. They are government funded with tight budgets. If they chased all of these and only 1% panned out, they would get lambasted by their ruling bodies as wasting money. Also where the inventor can’t explain how it works, it would make it really hard to support with the reliability we want in stuff we send to space.
Looks like Carl from Pixar’s “Up” but if he died 55 years earlier and they Weekend-at-Bernie’s him for the movie.
