PDF’s are cross platform. It should be fine.

On a side note, I installed Libre Office on my wife’s gaming computer. All of our important documents are on my PC (that has MS office). For a few months she unsuccessfully applied to jobs using a resume she wrote in Libre Office, and sent out in the native format. It was not a good day when I pointed out her error.

Trickle down is a political term. Economists know that wealth trickles up. It is only moved back down with taxes. Non-economists have a saying for this, “the rich get richer”. Economists have a formula for this: r > g

In the US we are seeing a lot of cheap products that are supposedly USB-C. Like the flashlight I got for Christmas. But they will only charge with a USB-A to USB-C cable. They are basically USB-A chargers with a different shaped plug. They will not charge with a real USB-C cable. Is this also true in the EU?

I am not saying those are the correct rates. As a floor they probably should be low. Rates should vary by area anyway. Perhaps as a percentage of median apartment or home rent?

But here in rural America I have seen plenty of jobs that require degrees that pay less than that.

Leading economies all have low birth rates. I believe the US is still below our replacement rate without immigration. Where are populations growing fast? This article does not say. My guess is low cost of living areas like third world counties?

I don’t think I have ever done that. But don’t you have to hold it down now to record? Probably to fix this exact issue.

The tab view in Safari was changed from a Rolodex like view to tiny cards. But the cards are often too small to read, forcing me to click it to see what is on it. I end up leaving 30 tabs open because I don’t know if one is safe to close.
