On the good side your family and friends start just not believing you when you say you’re going to do this thing
On the bad side sometimes (so far exactly once for me) a friend will implement the idea you sketched that time and haven’t done yourself, and they do it wrong
That’s a fault of them telling you you’re doing it wrong, not telling you how they want it done. I wonder what they actually wanted
It really is bad when people expect you to intuit what they want from you
Most people think it’s best to upgrade 4 houses to a hotel
realistic
Has anyone personally known to you become randomly wealthy?
Keeping in mind Monopoly dollars are big enough to buy streets, utilities, houses and hotels
I occasionally accidentally open the fandom page for a game on Chrome with no ad block (which I keep around for Google apps) and it’s unusable. Go there on Firefox with ublock origin and it’s fine
And there’s worse sites than that
Download sites for things like Minecraft mods have several competing “download” buttons without ad block
It’s nuts people might accept these, let alone want them
I live in Canberra, Australia and we also have an excellent climate for olives and lemons. Apples and practically all citrus also do well and plums and other stone fruit grow like topsi. Figs too.
Deep inland, 600m elevation
We need to protect many of our fruit trees from birds, but not olives, apples, or citrus
Whole reimplementations have survived. IBM BIOS was the only original BIOS for PCs. Phoenix Technologies had a team read the source code for IBM BIOS (it was published in the user manual for troubleshooting) and wrote a specification for it which a different team wrote software from, making IBM compatible machines possible
I don’t know what law an emulator could be killed under, unless a license holder breached the user license as part of the development
Right, so you’ll hope it’ll stabilise prices, penalise people for moving home if it doesn’t work, penalise people for moving home regardless if they bought before this measure
The general idea is you tax things you want to stop, do you think it’s a good idea taxing selling one house to buy another to live in? I thought it was investment properties you didn’t like.
People who bought a very cheap house twenty years ago might have a million dollar capital gain and a $30,000 income. If they wanted to move they couldn’t sell that house and buy another under your scheme
I quite like the current policy in Canberra, Australia, where land tax is levied on rental properties, but not if you rent it at a lower rent
I guess using two good sources is good. If you get different results you can just not trust that ID
The danger of using a universal guide is it opens more confusion. The death cap in my earlier comment is an example, a Chinese guide will tell you a mushroom that looks like that is good; an Australian guide will tell you it’s deadly
For a differentiation of the two you need to check in more detail, but if you had the local you’d be fine as there’s no safe mushroom that looks like that here and no dangerous one that lives there
With a smaller set identification is easier
Boot lickers?
You would be better using a local field guide
A large category of dead mushroom hunters is people who know the mushrooms of where they are from, but find mushrooms elsewhere that look like a good one from home
In my city it’s Chinese trained mushroomers thinking death caps are a good eating mushroom (it isn’t)
I have driven through one of the grass growing areas of Australia (wheat, barley, all the animal feed, etc)
It’s so dead other than the specific grass grown in that field
It was nice getting into a beef raising area where there were trees and wild plants
If you live in a place you cannot access the capital gain
If I were to sell my house I bought for ~$100k for $500k I would need that 500k to get an equivalent house
I can imagine ways of doing that without too much friction. Building residents would have to buy out the building though which many won’t want to do
My city levies land tax on any land that isn’t the owner’s private residence
That though really just increases rent, even if rent is unfair already
They have just also added a thing where you don’t cop land tax if you rent out a place at sufficiently below market rate
The system in question is capitalism. It’s been around longer than any of the named generations. It was tamed a little before the first world war (it enabled the first world war to be a world war). It needs to be more restricted
You can also just shoot down your ideas as you speak them “but I would first need to clean that workspace, and that’s impossible”
