well, that's what the input boxes are for :) I don't know what the electric OR or gas rate is for wherever that person lives. But I think even your example of $2/liter, is a good thing for folks to internalize: the extremely

can you clarify how you got that result? 70,000 - 8800 (married filing jointly) - 2000 (two dependents) = $59200 taxable income, $2960 tax bill. An effective rate of 4.22% To reach the site's stated 3.29%, this family would need to mak

Hmm, I don't quite understand this methodology. This site lists my state, Massachusetts, as having a 3.29% individual income tax burden, but our income tax rate is a flat 5% (no brackets). I'm looking at the exemption list ( https

I was really taken aback by this given my previous experience with the Linux kernel git repo size. So, I just checked out Graal. Receiving objects: 100% (981372/981372), 187.08 MiB | 6.39 MiB/s, done. % du -sh graal 328M graal %

That's correct. But the new, Google-involved behavior is that for 5+ users (which was previously "unlimited"): " Customers that have 5 or more End Users will receive a total amount of Google Drive storage equal to 5TB ti

With a properly installed thermostatic mixing valve, you don't even need that. The water will always exit at a safe, constant-ish temperature regardless of the water temperature in the heater, by mixing in the cold supply.

I was curious about this a while ago and did some napkin math. Natural gas is roughly $15 for 1 million BTU. There are 3412 BTU in a kwhr, so if you heated resistively, you'd need 293 kwhr to get 1 million BTU. In my area, which I feel

This is close enough to what we do -- and it works -- but since we support multiple releases at a time, it often ends up feeling like merging is pointless. Merging a dev branch into trunk feels good, but honestly most git interactions invol

The i3 you linked matched. But for the i7 model, apple claims 1.2/3.8 and I can't see a match for that. For the i5, they claim 1.1/3.5 which could be a match for https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us&

Well, right. But, I think that a lot of people are frustrated because living in dense urban areas is NOT an allowed pattern of development in most cities, especially the Bay Area.

Great graph! It doesn't take much away from your observation about the increase recently, but I do think it's fair to point out that you should click the "Adjusted for inflation" button for a fair comparison.
