Last year, the popular right-wing podcaster Steven Crowder announced his own unwilling split. “My then-wife decided that she didn’t want to be married anymore,” he complained, “and in the state of Texas, that is completely permitted.”
I mean, women only exist to be owned by their husbands, after all.
That's not an excellent example. If they refuse to collaborate with them, and also don't make any claims about the quality of code, then the claim that their objectivity in reviewing code is tainted doesn't hold.
Been on a Cyberpunk 2077 binge for the last 2 weeks or so. I'm maybe 4-6 hours away from completing everything except the final main story mission. It's been an absolute pleasure, I haven't found myself wanting to come back to a singleplayer game in the same way for some time. I know the game had a rocky start, but having picked it up much later, it's a welcome addition to my "would recommend" list of games for RPG-lovers.
The proposed penalties seem low to me. A max of $3.65M annually for operating means that so long as your operations in the county make more net profit than that, there's no reason to leave. It seems to me that by merging any smaller operations, one could end up with a large enough operation to make that math work pretty trivially. Hell, for all I know even a rather small operation could be making that much.
Given that this was an activist-driven ballot initiative, it confuses me why they're not simply basing the fines on profits...
I mean, there are trivial reasons for this. If I own a $1.2m home and have $100,000 in the bank, I'm a millionaire who couldn't post a $250,000 bond.
That's great, and there's nothing wrong with those of us who feel that the death penalty is immoral. But as long as we are still committing some executions, I'd at least rather we try not to torture people while we do it.
I feel like it would be more efficient to simply give her the same discount (without the middleman's fee) on her actual rent, given that this is a state-sponsored program and she already lives in subsidized housing.
