That’s some drawbridge level thinking right there. Are you not also part of the problem? Because they arrived after you… they’re the problem? People moved there for jobs, same as anyone else who moved there. (For what it’s worth I don’t live in Seattle)
It’s the bigger ones that tend to pay in stock. The googles, facebooks, Microsoft, and startups.
I’ve also been in software development for 20 years at various places in the country and I know a bunch of folks who get paid in stock.
I would argue that this law does tend to unfairly target the tech sector which often pays their people in stock. This is compared to other professions who may make an equivalent or higher salary but will not be subject to the 7 percent tax.
That doesn’t seem quite fair. If we’re going to do this, we should have a 7 percent tax across the board for anything over 250k (or whatever) instead of strictly targeting a particular sector
The author calls it satire…. but it seems more like they’re genuinely upset about the quality of these minis.
Is this like when kids say something scathing and end it with “just kidding”?
I felt the ending was a let down that didn’t really make any sense… it also is a cliffhanger and I’m not sure this season did well enough to warrant a second season… and they commit the taboo of killing pets for shock value…
On the bright side, some actors really do shine and the plot is engaging. Took me an episode to get over some of the overacting and cheesy soundtrack. I’d give it a 6/10
Company currently uses IPv6! For awhile firewall rules kept biting us as we’d realize something worked in ipv4 but not IPv6 but now I forget it’s even a thing really.
I once paid for a vpc host that was exclusively IPv6 and was shocked how many things broke. I was using it for a discord bot and the discord api didn’t even properly support IPv6 …
You’re living in luxury, my fellow lemming.
Is this normally hooked up to the hot water line or am I looking at a refreshing cold experience?
Never had that, but I find this to be an acceptable compromise!
Every bathroom everywhere should have a bidet.
Team America?!
Is this the plot to beetlejuice 2?
Isn’t central time a bit of a mess due to some states observing daylight savings time and others not? Is this 7pm daylight or standard?
What’s it like being a monster?
Yes! I also have the rice cooker. Probably the two most used kitchen gadgets I have!
Zojirushi bread makers are amazing
I know it’s the sources title but it’s a confusing one. For a minute, I was surprised that there were a group of Republican attorney generals blocking climate laws that were being pushed by the oil companies.
Turns out the title should be Group of US Republican attorneys general, funded by oil firms and dark money, blocking climate laws.
Glad you could convert your partner to “the way”! I’ve always wondered if it’s less wear and tear or not. I’ve been using mine for decades now (daily…) and I’ve yet to have any problems.
According to levels.fyi, Microsoft grants about 50-100k (25 percent of their pay?) in stock for their senior engineers each year. Amazon is closer to 200k (which makes up about 50 percent of their pay)
I guess you’re right in that it won’t really affect them, assuming the tax event occurs when the rsu gets vested and not at the sale.
It’d be more likely to affect folks who are in a pre-ipo company, gain a bunch of stock, and then sell it post-ipo. I know several folks at AirBnB who this would have impacted and several at stripe who this probably will impact.
