The three accidents happened within a few calendar days of each other: Apollo 1 Jan 27, Challenger Jan 28, Columbia Feb 1. So I presume they chose a neutral day just before the first one for a week of remembrance.

The idea of technological progress is fairly recent, 2-3 centuries old. Before then your life was pretty similar to your grandfathers and grandchildrens. Now we are used to seeing new gizmos every year.

There was concept of progress, or degeneration in other spheres. Some believe in spiritual progress as becoming more perfect. Or we have degenerated from Eden and continue downward.

We still have 39 years until Jetson time. (Show written in 1962 to be a century in the future.)

Men are constantly producing sperm. Sperm stem cells accumulate approximately one mutation per year. So an old father might have triple the genetic defects of a young father.

I dont know what defines the female line.

Yes, I was going to cite that example too. Charon is fractionally largest "moon" (12%) tied to a "planet", so that could encourage tidal locking. (Earths Moon is second at 2%.)

"Retail" is a mystery to me and your highest percentage.

I'd add a row to compute percentage of total annual expenditure. I can do that roughly in my head by doubling the thousands number.

Several excellent 50th anniversary documentaries.

I was surprised by eggs- they are just 10% protein by weight. An average adult would need a dozen per day for protein.

I am in the the "other" category. I have been watching VR short movies at Film Festivals and SIGGRAPH for over a decade. I observed a large jump in quality in 2021. Part of that was improvements in headsets (2K, 90 fps, no cables). And part due to film makers mastering the media. Its not the same a making 3D movies, but some overlap.

(I agree the first VR power uses will be multi-player immersive gaming.)

Rule for monthly rent is annual salary divided by 40. Sounds too expensive.

They delay helps both financial companies and users insure they are marking shared payments as personal, instead of business. The first would not be taxable, while the other is taxable.

For example someone may want to pay the restaurant bill most of time to get extra points on their credit card. They might venmoed more than $600 from dinner companions over the year when sharing the bill.

I had not paid close attention to this recently, so dont know if I had been making a mistake.

You didnt say the length of loan. But six years 7% APY is 50% added to the amount financed.

Where did he get $250M for bail?

His parents house was $5M at most. (Palo Alto very pricey.)

I dont need a gizmo to tell me how much exercise I get.

Stanford publishes their 2022 faculty average 9-month salaries - $192K, starting at $97K for a lecturer to $268K for full professor. They can add another 30% if they teach in the summer or have research grants for the summer. And they can spend 20% time consulting with no salary limit. Palo Alto is a very high cost of living area.

What part of world? Hard to do in US or Western Europe, unless with parents.

Note, the threshold for 1099 reporting of internet cash activity was lowered from $20,000 a year to $600 a year, starting for the 2022 tax year. Venmo's FAQ says that is for goods and services. Splitting a restaurant check or a utility payment should be marked personal instead.

My city has recreation centers with competitive memberships.

The interest is prorated by days late after 45 days. So you reach 7% at about 14 months, assuming they dont lower the rate next October.

Insurance, property tax, utilities inflate also.

Most policies give you 30 days to update policy upon moving. Insurance costs could be rather different in new location.

Typically one has a 30 day grace period to update insurance to continue coverage in a new location. The premium could change to reflect the new location.

In my location 20% of vehicles are not properly registered because my state charges a huge registration fee of 2.5% percent of vehicle value. These people are in for a surprise if they have an accident. I am covered by uninsured motorist for this reason.

I occasional move 20 times that and nothing happens.

Rule of thumb is no more than half years income. Or monthly costs: payments, insurance, gasoline, maintenance 1/6 of monthly income.
