They’ve gotten pretty strict if they think your IP is a scraper (i.e. coming from AWS or another cloud provider even inside a full browser environment).
It’s about moving inside a state. I told the DMV of my new address, but my drivers license still has the old one. Maybe I could get it reissued, but that seems like a pain. Many people move more frequently than the license expiration period.
Every time I moved in Georgia, they mailed me a replacement license with my new address. Don't know if all states are like that but given the increasing desire to know people's whereabouts, I would guess many do. Georgia does say it can impose a fee of you move too many times during a license's validity period but haven't seen that actually happen.
In Australia, after you change your licence address, they mail you a small sticker with the updated addres, that is then stuck onto the back of your licence.
There's a small section marked on the back that is specifically for it.
I guess if you move multiple times within the expiry period, you can pull the old sticker off and replace it.
They just mailed me a new ID with the updated address in VA when I requested, was a lot less of a pain than having government documents that are wrong, imo.
Not in rural areas. Maybe for suburbs. At least in SF ppl Uber a fair bit, but I suspect most trips on a night out are not replacing someone driving their own car.
The other tell is 3 leaves. From memory (so maybe wrong), they aren't hairy, but do have a slightly broken edge (can be smooth, but can have a little but not a lot of variation).
We live in the woods and there's poison ivy around. I try and mark the obvious stuff with some spraypaint, but if you go for a hike you could probably come across some.
I just tell people "leaves of three, leave it be" and leave it at that.
You can get into whether the branches alternate on the stem, the exact shape of the leaf, whether the middle leaf has a longer stem than the two side leaves, etc... But in my experience it's just way easier to have people avoiding the handful of plants in your area that are safe but could be confused (for us it's pretty much just boxelder) than trying to play botanist and determine exactly what's gonna ruin their entire month.
Unless you _really_ need to differentiate or you live in an area where there's a _lot_ of other three-leaved plants... just avoid the three-leaved plants.
You need way more than one. Trees, storms, and cars take out distribution power lines all the time. Substations, which was got attacked, have less redundancy and way fewer spare parts on hand.
Contract’s don’t (more accurately almost never) pay for gas. Gas estimation is done when sending by the end user.
Some parts of gas estimation can be done statically, but some of the cost of certain operations are dependent on the data being loaded from the state. I’d like a tool to set an upper bound on gas usage (current approach is to execute the tx on pending state and add 10-30%), but solidity does not provide one.
These are also mainly used on fully residential streets and basically codifying existing rules. They behave very similarly to streets without a center line & sidewalk/bike lanes. I also think cost does become an issue when implementing larger streets/bike lanes (let alone the fact that larger streets make people go faster) on every single residential street.
They do charge for state taxes. It’s like 15 bucks per return with not that much up sell. I’ve used them when I had simpler taxes and liked them over other common preparers
I help friends and family and I can't recommend freetaxusa for simple returns enough. It's so much cheaper if you're doing your own taxes. Tax slayer is decent as well.
My dad's gas car (20 years ago) caught on fire in the garage while he wasn't there. The house was fine b/c of a a code required fire break between the garage and house. It's probably more rare nowadays, but not impossible.
