I can see two scenarios:

1. You have an NTFS partition that got borked. Linux isn't very good at repairing those so you might have to boot into Windows.
2. You managed to make your Linux unbootable and need Windows to download a live USB image.

And that's it. Windows is less useful for fixing Linux than vice versa.

I agree that going for wages in the traditional sense doesn't catch many of the most relevant income streams. However, I think that a "maximum wage" makes sense as a theoretical construct used to create a sensible income tax scheme.

Essentially, tax brackets and rates could be defined in relation to the median income. Go too far above that (hitting the "maximum wage") and your tax rate rapidly increases, maybe even going as high as 90%. Of course this would have to cover all sorts of income, not just plain money.

This scheme would effectively box people into a certain band of acceptable wealth and would create an incentive to raise wages – after all, if the average worker makes more, so can the most wealthy.

(Also, full agreement on needing to talk about better labor protections. American labor law is really lax.)

Mind you, people probably don't think of your standard high earner they they think of an income cap. They think of people who make four (or even five) digits an hour, a rate that maybe high end lawyers can match. Maybe.

CEOs of large companies can easily make that much, often not even tied to performance but contractually guaranteed. The super-rich make that much simply by existing.

Basically, if your labor (or mere existence) isn't even worth 1000 bucks an hour to your clients you're a peasant like the rest of us and an income cap is probably never going to be relevant to you.

Brauchst du HBCI/FinTS? In den Fall könntest du dir Jameica/Hibiscus ansehen. Das ist Java-basiert und sollte an sich laufen.

Especially if you didn't have a lot of spare time. With an active community you can just dip into discussions when you have the time. With a community you're trying to establish yourself you absolutely have to provide a steady stream of content until it (hopefully) takes off.

The software development industry version of this is "we really need to fix that soon but it's beyond the scope of this PBI".

"Soon" is a shorthand for "we'll put this on the backlog and never pull it into a sprint until it blows up in our faces, at which time we will gripe about how nobody bothered to fix it earlier".

But you can tune the specifications of the yarn to theoretically make the socks up to 2% more comfy. In practice your tuning efforts will make the socks less comfortable and tear more easily.

We know that people have different chronotypes. We even know that most people of working age aren't really morning people. Unfortunately, our business world assumes a standard circadian rhythm and is structured around getting up early because people needed to use every bit of daylight way back when. So that sucks, especially if you're an evening or even night person.

"You finished a computer game, Atticus."

The truth was a burning green crack through my brain.

Credits scrolling by, a reminder of the talent behind a just-finished journey. The feeling of triumph, slowly replaced by the creeping grayness of ordinary life.

I had finished a computer game. Funny as hell, it was the most horrible thing I could think of.

There are many OS-related diseases. Many Linux users are affected by or at least know someone who suffers from the compulsive need to mention that they're using Arch. Then there's compiler flag addiction, which can develop in Gentoo users. iDependency, the pathological need to purchase any product Apple releases, has financially ruined many macOS users. Windows users' feelings towards Windows Update and the associated increase in heart rate are known to substantially increase the risk of a fatal heart attack.

Knowing how to operate TempleOS is considered a mental disorder under the DSM-5.

True, just like "online" and ".com" in the 2000s. Marketing loves to pointlessly toss around fad words. I will mock this specific ad for overusing the word to a comical degree, though.

Ah, the good old scientific days when every product had to be marketed as scientific, using that exact word. Like this scientific ad, which scientifically repeats how scientific the headlight is because scientific readers demand science scientifically.
