His debt will be paid in full when the victim has been "made whole". The nature of the crime means the victim will likely never be whole again. Also, forgiveness is not absolution.

It doesn't matter if assessments are high or low. It just matters that your particular assessment is equitable with respect to your neighbours. What matters is the mill rate. If your taxes have gone up it's because your taxing authority has decided to raise more money.

Reporters that conflate assessments with taxes raised are lacking basic numeracy.

My regime is 100mg first thing in the morning resulting in minor flushing 20-30 after taking. Throughout the day, 500mg at a time with often no flushing, staying at or under 2000 mg total for the day. It's very effective at managing my cholesterol and seems to improve joint inflamation. I'll do this for 3 months then stop for a month to 6 weeks.

There are 300+ yr old timber frame barns etc in Europe, so it seems to be plausibly a net zero impact.

The idea that there are folks who believe that people with differing opinions should be punished that I find disturbing.

Why yes, yes I am :-)

My back yard, and anyone elses.

Polarizing, yup. Hated - got a long way to go.

Given distance, velocity and time; choose any two as physical and the third will be emergent. Choose according to the view you want to explore.

Better do something about that California math curriculum - replace that boring calculus cruft with some proper discrete math :-)

Absolutely.

For example, grains are so fundamental to human survival in large part due to the fact that it can be stored over multiple years/seasons. Try doing that with potatoes.

"Just move" is what humans have done since time immemorial. There are folks who complain and those who act.

I agree that it is important to preserve these languages and have the same concern about the claim. I'm inclined to believe that it is experiencing the natural world that builds understanding. Expressing that understanding is separate from the understanding itself.

Perhaps parent meant private, as in keeping your age private as it wouldn't make sense to be anonymous if your expecting to be paid :-)

Don Knuths' "Christmas Tree" lectures[0] are awesome - every year, something new from 1997 to 2019 (sans 2005 it appears)

The way languages are used - common usage is almost certainly correct. Correct is whatever is agreed upon by conversation participants. Correct in one group ain't necessarily so in another.

I'm thinking that would be demonstrating that there cannot be evidence.

With you on "driving to the conditions". Although just because your vehicle can stop quickly doesn't mean that unmaintained civic can do the same when you go flying past and then hard brake.

My one hope for self driving vehicles is that it normalizes efficient traffic flow.

3rd paragraph, although parent may have a typo - rather than 300 - 800 it says 300 - 500

In practice, most strategic nuclear warheads today are in the 300-500 kT range, with tactical weapons being smaller. If we take the American W88 (455 kT) as representative of this range

Case in point, had a meeting at the beginning of this week where the meeting request 'accept' included "we might have to cut short this meeting should the sirens sound, thank you for your patience". Brings things into sharp focus.

Dang it all, we had 20+ teletypes hanging off a 32Kb PDP-8 (with DECTape for random access storage), "and we liked it!" :-)

Can't wait for the return of Tipper Gore and labelling anything that offends. /s

And I knew folks who thought Spinal Tap was a real band. Satire is therapeutic when the crap around us gets too deep.

At about the halfway mark the office starts a call. Are radios no longer used?

Thanks for the link.

I need to choose words better - rather than "dark arts" I probably should have said "tacit knowledge". I certainly didn't mean to imply that arrhythmias are not well studied, rather, my hope is that we can use AI methods to do better science.

side note: I know EEs who claim antenna design is a black art :-) It also is well studied and yet according to some, it appears magical at times.

My very tangential observations in the cardiology domain is that it is in some respects a dark art that requires years, perhaps decades of experience to understand underlying mechanisms. While this certainly looks promising in a person / not person recognition kinda way; I'm hoping it can shed some insight the interaction between scarring and conductivity that leads to arrhythmias.

The scenario allowed in your reference is not the same. The original scenario was a rental/income property declare principle (for some short period of time) for the purpose of shielding capital gains whereas the exemption you reference is a principle residence allowed to be used for rental/income. Note that you cannot declare another property as principle while you're renting out your homebase. I expect it is meant for cases where you might take a job transfer for a period of time.

The taxman never leaves money on the table.

The CRA is fairly particular[0] about income from the sale of a property. They want to know, for example, how long it has been your primary residence and if it was rented before then, what was the appraised value. You will end up paying capital gains on the delta. So, if you've been renting out a property, move in to it for 6 months and then sell you'll be paying capital gains on everything but the last 6 months. The only time that works out is with a sudden spike in values.
