The “SSH” picture would work for SSH tunneling
In this context “well regulated” means like a smoothly-running clock, with the implication being that militia members will need weapons for training and practice.

Well, in the beginning…
I guess the argument is that they will raise rent by the maximum, even at excessive risk of losing tenants? Because if the tenants will pay that much, why wouldn’t the landlord charge that anyway?
The new rules would require applicants to assess and limit the probability of accidental explosions to less than one in a thousand for each satellite they submit for approval.
That seems generous.
Definite agree with the core of what you’re saying, though for US and EU (and to a lesser degree “High income countries”), the numbers are quite close, as clean grid energy is significantly outpacing electric vehicle adoption (and EVs rely on a clean grid to be clean).
If you return the tax to everyone as a dividend, then it becomes progressive, while still encouraging less polluting options
To be fair, it would be more effective to build a handful of mid-rises rather than clear-cutting space for a new exurb

I don’t think it’s accurate to say that זָכָר (zakar) is usually translated as “boy”. It is generally translated as “male” and often clearly includes adult males.
Funny enough, all prohibitions are specific to men, even in the NT (arsenokoites).

It’s a thingy for making video games

Godot is a popular Free and Open Source game development engine and toolset.
They are the 3rd most popular engine behind (commerical) engines Unity and Unreal, and seeing a major surge of interest after Unity altered the deal so bluntly that Vader would blush.
Yes, you can always count on the right-wing to oppose all progress, with help from everyone’s favorite propogandist petrostate. What’s wild though is over half of Canadians don’t even realize they are getting a rebate! [0] Clearly whatever people’s opinions on the policy are, they aren’t driven by reality.
Ah, that’s one of my favorites. It’s just so sincere and fun. It’s definitely unrefined, like a student film that somehow got a massive budget, but that is part of its charm.
Public services (e.g. libraries) are so far the most effective at getting people’s buy-in. Many countries even provide healthcare this way. Food is a bit trickier, but is done in schools, and something like a public cafeteria seems tenable. Housing would be extremely difficult due to security concerns; the current housing shortage would also prevent this.
In general Universal Basic Income (UBI) still has the advantage that everyone gets it, so it doesn’t feel “unfair” (and people generally support getting money for themselves). It far more flexible than public services, but suffers from people stressing about the rich getting it.
Carbon Tax & Dividend has that advantage and even further justification. Tax polluters, and then give that money back to everyone equally (after all, everyone is hurt equally by pollution).
A similar argument could be made for nonrenewable resources and Land Value Tax (LVT) - the land belongs to everyone, and everyone deserves to benefit from its use.
This article is an abuse of the source data. “Working class” here is closer to manual laborer and excludes teachers, farm workers, military, emergency services, nurses, law enforcement, and others. The data is also fairly noisy, with typos and 2% of values being empty affecting the calculation.
To conclude that anyone not “working class” by this definition is “upper-class” is absurd. I guess for some it is hard to imagine the lofty former assistant manager at Burger King (D-AR) understanding the struggles of the common man.
There are certainly interesting discussions to be had about the disruptive influence of wealth on elections and about balancing representation with competence – and folks are having that discussion – but this article contributes less than nothing to those conversations.
