Hmmm…
Let’s do a quick exercise without real numbers. Please let me know if I’m wrong because this is what I thought. If I make 150k and am maxed out on my standard deduction, but then I make 250k and there’s no difference on my standard deduction, I’m not getting more standard deduction. If my wife is a stay at home mom and I make $250k, I am getting more standard deduction now, right?
This is how married taxes work, right? Am I wrong on that? We get different brackets and different rules. I’ve been marred for 7 years and my first year I got all my taxes back because she didn’t work that year. Am I wrong?
But what you’re saying: a raise for the lower earner does give more money. But by being a big earner marrying a now or low earner, it incentivizes high earners marrying low earners. Or mixed earners. It was devised in the time when women didnt work but we needed more tax benefits for taking care of women.
Exactly. It’s to incentivize one person to be a bread winner and one to make less and be a home maker (or something with less hours) so you get the tax benefits. It would be a nice system if expenses weren’t so damn high.


I use AI in my job but for script development. I would never have an AI without explicit guardrails or automated and not prompt driven and watched. It’s gotten creative though by using find … exec rm to remove old files, because I allowlisted find *. But it still only can do stuff in the directory it’s open in.


So just recyclarr?
But that’s very different. People are uploading music on YouTube to be listened to as music and that directly infringes the copyright of another song on YouTube that is legit. It’s directly taking money from the owners of the song. Games are not (typically) intended to be a replacement for just listening to that song.
