that's the part that irks me the most about modern American politics.
30% of the current House and 51% of current Senators have law degrees. these are supposed "experts"; you'd think they would be able to write better laws...

bold of you to assume we were properly educated about the real world at any time in our American upbringings
I'm begging the question here but it's an important point that the article is trying (not very well) to make...
Why does healthcare in the US cost 50% more than Europe, on average per person?
We take the same drugs, right? We have the same surgeries with the same equipment?
And that's the cost we paid this year, without even providing coverage for the whole population.
one reason the costs are lower in Europe is bc govts over there put strict limits on how much providers can charge for services and prescriptions, which is something the US refuses to do. Healthcare costs in the US are made up by pharma companies depending on how much they think they can get away with.
LEED kinda works like that with the different levels. LEED Gold checks off requirements a, b, and c; LEED Platinum also includes d and e, etc. I'm not LEED accredited, though, so I can't speak to the finer differences.
There is a new standard making headway called WELL Certification . I'm not sure the difference between this and LEED but I'd be interested to learn more one day.
It is, but LEED was kind of a flash-in-the-pan fad for tax breaks and hardly any developers strive for a LEED certificate anymore (exception I've seen is govt projects). the cost of LEED certification is too much for most developers to stomach.
Nowadays I mostly see LEED as an extra set of letters in a person's email signature.
if liking blue cheese is gay then call me fabulous, idgaf. y'all can fight over your basic-ass ranch when the wings come out.
I just changed mine to porqueFi, I thought it was clever...
I just looked this brand and model up and don't see it yet, and I don't see it on the side of the housing, so I'm gonna guess this doesn't have a UL listing. That's usually a good starting point to see if it's reputable.
So, if I used SolidWorks or AutoCAD more, it would be a different story. I do most of my work in Revit which is OK on using RAM. And I wish I could save desktops, that'd be cool.
What's Depot?
I work as an engineer and I use it like a desktop for each project. Works very well when you need to work on more than one project at a time - all the programs, files, folders, browser tabs for one project are on one screen exactly where I left them, and exactly in the layout where I left off.
I also keep the first desktop as a HOME screen, where I have email, Teams, Zoom, and my timesheet program. If I need to talk to someone about a project while I work on it, I just pop that chat out into a new window and move it to the respective desktop.
The only limitation is that if you open something (like an Excel file) through Windows Explorer on desktop 1, but you have an instance of the program already running on desktop 3, it will jump around the desktops and open on the one where it's already open. I have no idea why, not all programs do that, but it's easy to move it to the correct place.
Also it's even more hand if you learn the keyboard shortcuts.
he probably hasn't tried bc he thinks it's in German
