It is likely due to regulations rather than translations


I used to teach snowboarding as a contractor and had no choice over the price of my services. The resort set the price and I had to either accept or not work with them.


This is not how Google works. They adjust salary based on local market rate when you transfer.


US gift tax is the recipients burden (above 14k)


That is almost never true (see https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tips/estates/the-gift-tax/L1...). Gift taxes are nearly always the givers burden.


Are there any weather websites with confidence intervals?


They're not confidence intervals, but weather.gov's forecasts include a link to the NWS office's forecast discussion (updated every few hours). This can give you a bit of insight into forecaster uncertainty and the variation between models.

To excerpt the most recent (8:14PM EDT) NYC office's discussion:

"As a result, expect most precipitation to be focused mainly during the evening hours. Hi-resolution models have been suggesting that the overnight hours could be mainly if not entirely dry. This is due to 850 hPa warm front lifting to the north by around 6z and a dry slot moving in from the SW (DC/PHI area). For now, have just lowered pops to chance. If trends in the high resolution models hold, pops will need to be lowered further if not removed for the overnight hours with future updates."


not quite that, but kachelmannwetter.com/weather.us has a mode where they'll show you the results from different models:

I think they are all in Jurong


The photos might be from contributions on Google maps, which users grant rights to Google.


Shift backspace goes forward


So it does. Presumably, not for long, though.


There was some research from Stanford a few years ago with a similar idea http://hci.stanford.edu/publications/2010/blueprint/brandt_c...


A few weeks ago, I created something similar so I could reproduce a failure.
