What would you want to get out of the recurse center? It's an okay place if you want to develop your coding skills (I say okay because it all depends on who you meet and who's in your batch. If you want to get really good at database development but your batch is full of front end dev's, you might have a bad time). However they're not the best at placing people into jobs. IMO you either have to be somebody with 10+ years of experience prior to attending, or already know somebody at the company they place you at.

lightning has the perks of being instantaneous, free or nearly free, and not tied to a specific currency. With visa, it's not instantaneous, charges vendors a 3% tx fee each time a card is used, and requires international clearing houses for foreign payments

i disagree with the 65,000 figure. A baseline tesla model 3 is 38000 dollars, which has a computer that can handle full self driving beta. I can see the price going down TBH

no, they're not productive because they live off of goverment handouts. ANYBODY who takes more than they give is unproductive. Middleschoolers are unproductive, incarcerated felons are unproductive, people living off government grants are unproductive

so it'll sit there for weeks, probably be delayed for 6 months because some random environmentalist at some obscure government agency feels power hungry and demands a review, then comes up with some overlooked flaw that sets everything back 4 years

nasa puts all the images from their space probes up at pds.jpl.nasa.gov it's a learning curve to navigate, but once you know about it, it's addictive

no argument there. Would you agree with me that it'd be better if the schools provided all the materials that a teacher needs, instead of them paying out of pocket for supplies? I'll sometimes pay out of pocket for work supplies but I just get reimbursed so it's no big deal.

Honestly though, we also need to ask why teachers are having to spend money out of pocket at all. We pay all these taxes, shouldn't the schools be able to afford photo copies?

I think you're right on how the policy works, but look at the math. The standard deduction doubled, so as an equation New_deduction > old_deduction+school supplies

Teachers came out ahead

I remember there was a huge issue among the teachers unions that teachers wouldn't be able to deduct up to 500 dollars anymore for classroom expenses (I may have the number wrong). I was thinking, you teachers should be good at math and realize your deduction being doubled is way nicer than having that classroom supplies deduction. Also, why isn't the school paying for your expenses (but that's a whole separate conversation)
