Anyone has insight over what the problem was?
It's a pity, it could have been a golden opportunity to showcase an open source chess server, given that so many players (big players as well as casual) registered. I guess it wasn't meant to be.

so for people who likes chess: What level/rating is a good target for playing chess as a hobby, without trading away your life as would be needed for GM or other high statuses?

> 80% CO2 doesn't seem very high
Are you a visitor from Venus? :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmosphere_of_Venus
Joke aside, as other posters say the CO2 concentration is more like 0.04% and even an increase for that is considered a contributing factor in global warming.

The Economist isn't a technical publication but it is known to do its homework and get details like this right.

> .. batteries kept reigniting. At one point, Herman said, deputies had to call Tesla to ask them how to put out the fire in the battery
FWIW this was what happened when there was a Tesla accident in my area. But for sure, these are only anecdotes. We have to compare the data with how often non-Tesla cars burn

I wonder how the "without revealing its precise source" part works.
Probably it's this form, https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040s1.pdf do you just add it in line 8 with type = "stuff"?
What happens if they need to audit you if it's the correct amount, won't you have to reveal the source then?

Is this a peer-reviewed finding? As someone without expertise in the area how do I evaluate its credibility?

According to the article it's a loophole
> Under a 2005 bankruptcy law, companies are banned, with few exceptions, from paying executives retention bonuses while in bankruptcy. But the firms seized on a loophole by granting payouts before filing.

Let alone "absent in some varieties", there are sounds that are absent in all varieties but still spelled (e.g. the h in hombre or the u in queso). There was an attempt to regularize that in Latin America but the countries that tried to adopt it reverted back to the old spelling[1] - I guess the same will happen if someone tries to "reform" English

> You can only surrender your rights once, the effects of losing those rights will last forever
With an app like tracetogether, you can just uninstall it after the pandemic, right? No need to surrender your rights forever.

Yeah but they use protections like masks, gloves. I think it's reasonable to assume that a dentist's office likely know better than you about how to minimize the risk. They have motivation in not ruining their business by being a source of local outbreak.

doesn't mean you can't fly to the US from there.
