Writing a specification on something I know very little about. It's requiring a lot of research :(

anyone notice clicking links on AT now try to act like pop-ups? such that when you (middle?) click on a link to a subforum / thread / post, it'll be blocked if you have a pop-up blocker?

i see they're now automatically converting links within posts to viglink URLs but this shouldn't have an effect on the forum navigation. however, looks like it does.

and i really really hope these viglinks don't lead to autolinking text within posts. really hope not.

Spring is coming, so I had to buy curtains for my new apartment, because of the sun reflecting in my computer screen.

The filter in the coffee machine folded over itself so when I got to the bottom of my cup I got a mouthful of ground.

I've run out of things to read online because I don't feel like doing any work.

now that I'm down to my final week, I'm officially in the mode where I'm responding to messages/phone calls but not monitoring the ticket queue or other high-level operations whatsoever.

I've told my team like 4 times "if you have any projects you want me to finish or if there's any knowledge you want me to document, let me know," but no one has so fuck it.

I'm starting my 2015 taxes by "properly" recording some stock trades because how to do it is still fresh in my mind.

Taxes are paid to the state in which the revenue is generated.

Could be either.

Say you are a resident of Oregon but work in Washington: You pay Oregon income taxes.

This is because there is no reciprocal agreement between the states because Washington has no income tax.

If Your State Doesn’t Have a Reciprocal Agreement
If the state you work in does not have a reciprocal agreement with your “home” state, you’ll have to file a resident tax return and a nonresident tax return.

On your resident tax return (for your “home” state), you list all sources of income, including that which you earned out-of-state.
On your nonresident tax return (for your “work” state), you only list the income that you made in that state.
In most cases, your “home” state will allow you to claim a tax credit on your resident tax form for the taxes that you paid to your “work” state.

Well, yes. It could be either, I was speaking to the general rule of thumb. It's not all that more difficult filing in multiple states.

I figured it would make sense to have it done professionally for the first year, and then go back to doing it myself once I see for myself what it's all about.

If you do it with tax software it will ask where you live and what state your job is in and then do everything for you.

Honestly, it's easier that way anyway. Leave it to the pros. They know all the rules and tricks to get the best return.

My first time in my own house I ended up owing a bunch of money because I no longer had tax break having to do with college and I was working full time and not just in summer. The girl that does my taxes told me what I can do to prevent that. Well worth the $25 or whatever it is I pay.

UPS failed to deliver on time my new snare drum stuff on time, but the bass drum things might catch up at any rate.

Think is first time I've seen UPS miss a delivery date here, but it is a bit cold up north.

What did you get? I just picked up an old ludwig acrolite. Probably the best $80 I've ever spent on a snare. Highly recommended. :thumbsup:
