I'd say #2 and #3 need to be modified.

#2 Are there related changes on the horizon for the code being refactored?

I think more qualifications than that probably miss times you should refactor.

#3 Has the code been changing recently OR have changes been delayed because modifying the unrefactored code is considered too difficult.

I've seen too many times where unrefactored code is considered too dangerous/difficult to modify even with total test coverage. Refactoring is a necessary step towards self documenting code in those cases.

Would a blank ISO keyboard work?

My Google skills are failing me and I can't seem to get a clear answer if the Scandinavian layout fits on ISO keys.

Batteries are not cheap, but they are cost effective based on local conditions.

Time of use billing. The battery is generating ROI if it can arbitrage energy over the day.

Net metering + solar. If net metering is not available, or sufficiently discounted, and your energy usage is not high enough during the day to use all your solar power, then batteries generate ROI.

Grid stability. A battery effectively is insurance against outages of a few hours. With sufficient solar and rationing, that may extend to week long outages (think natural disasters).

Short Wave is a short week day science NPR podcast I enjoy.

This doesn't have to be true. We could have licenses that are perpetual.

I've often thought an authenticated proof of donation to a global charity could be a solution to these types of problems, scaled in price to the senders locale.

Not refundable, but at least a donation to UNICEF allows the receiver to impose a submission cost without the implication they are doing so out of greed.

This doesn't compute.

Higher interest rates makes a highly efficient and modestly sized two seater more attractive not less.

There are some YouTube channels that specialize in landscaping. I could see digitally and entrepreneurially minded landscaping professionals being a good part of their audience. Might be worth sponsoring a video or two.

I'd much prefer an explicit required amount of yearly PTO, plus the freedom for a manager to freely grant bonus PTO.
