People commonly use this expression in everyday conversation, such as, "you could save 10 times as much if you would just shop at Costco." So I agree with OP, their comment is correct but pedantic.
I sold a product and it was paid for by gift certificate or a special promo. I want to send a $0.00 invoice for the customer to see it and enjoy the feeling (Sweet! Free jerky/flowers/socks). It's great marketing and the customer will remember you the next time they want some jerky/flowers/socks.
Patients are denied access to their own records in the name of HIPAA. During a recent medical crisis this happened to me. No amount of threatening or cajoling would get them to release my images to my designated 2nd opinion.
To put it simply, anyone claiming HIPAA is the reason for that is just lying (since HIPAA has no such requirement) and would invent some other excuse -- or simply refuse without explanation -- without HIPAA. In fact, HIPAA patient access requirement mandates that patients have access to, and a right to receive copies of, their records under most circumstances, and refusal to provide such access is an actionable violation of HIPAA -- without HIPAA, there would be no recourse.
Pre HIPAA I never had a problem obtaining my records. The trouble is less-knowledgeable health gatekeepers are relentlessly indoctrinated into believing that privacy is paramount. A records request that doesn't follow a rigid checklist is defaulted to REJECT. And it is in the name of protecting the patient's privacy.
The API wasn't too bad, but it's woefully under-documented. The sample code is worthless. I also don't like that you have to implement it all and run it against test before you get production keys, but no biggie.
The bigger issue: I uploaded my catalog 2 weeks ago, and all products are still "under Jet review". I emailed and they said some partners have waited over a month.
> Gross income isn't income for purposes of taxing.
It is for personal income (business income is different.)
Well, strictly, adjusted gross income is income for purposes of taxing, but AGI is gross income after deductions allowed in the tax code, and "flat" tax proposals -- including Paul's -- almost without exception call for eliminating most deductions or all deductions (Paul expressly states that he will eliminate all except for charity and mortgage-related deductions.)
(Keeping one of the complexities of the current tax code, Paul continues to allow more deductions for businesses than individuals.)
Use the To: field of your request to your advantage. Send him an email along with 20 other webmaster@domains asking all of them if their domains are for sale and for how much. You can even throw in a line that you're looking for a quick deal and whoever can respond with a reasonable price, say $50 or so, will get the buy.
I start with reading, and that's sufficient most of the time. If I just don't get it, then I'll look for a video. I'll set playback to fast to reduce the time it takes to get through it. When I heard what I needed, I hit stop.
Just did this recently with the new async/await keywords in c#. I just wasn't getting it, but a few videos did the trick.
>> Hopefully they take your Amazon history into account
But of course they won't. Your experience with them clearly demonstrates that reality. No leg of that octopus knows what any of the other legs are doing.
