Just did a quick search, “interactive chart of us state and federal budgets”.
Found this government site for federal budgets: https://www.cbo.gov/interactives
For instance, here’s a page with charts for the 2023 federal budget: https://www.cbo.gov/publication/59727
I would hope similar sites exist for most, if not all, of the states.
Confidence? Not so much. But it’s less a fear of rejection, and more a fear of upsetting someone.
In short, my thought process goes like this:
I basically limit myself to online dating, but as we all know, that’s a shit show unless you’re in the top 10% on the scale of attractiveness. And so I’ve been single 10+ years.
Currently somewhere around 10 years single.
I struggle with social cues, anxiety, etc.
It’s lonely.
The Brood War remaster was actually pretty good, too. It was the last Blizzard product I bought.
I’ve seen “tankie” in leftist discussions on multiple sites for ages before I joined Lemmy.
Just because its a real word with a wiki page doesn’t make it any less annoying […]
And just because you first encountered a word in some place doesn’t mean that word originated in that place.
I used to believe this, but recent incidents have exposed systemic issues in engineering and QA at at least one major US aerospace manufacturer.
Do you have any examples of problems currently lacking a (plausible) software solution?
I have used warranties many times, but rarely bothered to register at time of purchase. In my experience, if you go to use a warranty, they’ll just ask for proof of purchase (if they ask for anything at all). I think the point of warranty registration is in case you need to use the warranty later, but you lose your receipt.
I don’t know much about advertising, but paying nearly $900 for just under 700 clicks seems like a bad return on investment to me. But I guess that depends on what you’re advertising, how much it costs, and how many of those clicks actually resulted in purchases.
“Service guarantees citizenship.”
That is the problem with representative democracy when each rep accounts for nearly a million citizens. You’re at the whims of such a massive voting base. Name recognition is pretty much the only thing that matters at that scale.
It’s like modern marketing and advertising. Half the time, they don’t even say anything about their service. They just want you to remember the name and recognize the logo if you see it in a store.
For that very reason, I sometimes imagine a world where public office is handled like jury duty, picked semi-randomly.
Should Jon Stewart run for POTUS? No.
Would I vote for Jon Stewart if he ran for POTUS? Probably.
This says less about my faith in Jon’s ability to govern, and more about my lack of faith in current politicians to lead ethically.
I’d rather see Jon make the right decisions but make mistakes, than to see a seasoned politician make the wrong decisions and execute them competently.
I at least have faith Jon is smart enough and with a true compassion in his heart, that he’d be able to surround himself with real experts, listen open mindedly to their advice, and regularly make decisions with empathy.
All that said, he’s said repeatedly he doesn’t want that job, and I do not blame him.
I don’t know the music video, but this might help: Wikipedia - Recursive islands and lakes.
But second girl only ever sees how first girl acts when she is around (regardless of who else is there). That’s how perception works. She can’t see how first girl acts when she’s not there, because she wouldn’t be there to see it.
Oh, cool. I never knew about that. Thanks.
You said Type-1 (the compact, key fob looking TOS phaser), but linked a picture to the TOS Type-2 (the pistol). Which did you prefer?
I love the concept of the Type-1, and it would definitely be my favorite pick of the phasers based on function. But for how it looks, I like how the TNG Type-2 kinda blended the TOS Type-1 concept as a tool, but sized it up to the TOS Type-2 pistol in size. Best of both worlds. Still feels like a tool, but more power drill, less garage door opener or handgun.
EDIT: my autocorrect kept messing up the link.
I somehow don’t think we’ll find a site that breaks down every purchase the government has made, let alone one that specifically detects and highlights corruption.
So I guess the official budgets are the best I can do to helpfully answer the question. Sorry.
