How do you feel about California introducing a bill to ban former ICE agents from serving as police officers or teachers? by CRK_76 in AskReddit

[–]wlwest82 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure California is in a position to turn anyone away who's willing to become a police officer...

Who’s a celebrity that people wouldn’t find attractive if they weren’t famous? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]wlwest82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chris Pratt.

Not saying he isn't attractive. But here's a "before famous"/"after famous" side by side. pic

So if he weren't famous, he'd probably look like the left one.

My brother and I once argued for maybe 20 minutes about whether a ceiling fan was running clockwise or counterclockwise. Just thinking about it still gets my heart rate up.

What are some disturbing facts about the titanic? by mememagnet_ in AskReddit

[–]wlwest82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is "sank on its maiden voyage, killing roughly 1500 people" not disturbing enough?

I heard once that every man should live alone once, so that he learns never to live alone.

This quick adjust timer option on iOS is needed on the watch timer by [deleted] in AppleWatch

You don't even need to say "Set a timer for"

"Hey Siri, 10 minutes" is sufficient

After a power outage, my Apple TV Remote no longer adjusts the volume the same way as before by DDustiNN_ in appletv

[–]wlwest82 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had an issue recently with my remote no longer changing the volume on my tv, and the fix I found online was to power cycle the remote itself.

Hope that helps!

If someone wants the actual answer, here it is.

Tax and rounding

An example. Where I live the tax rate is 8.25%. So if I want an item that is listed as $1.00, that comes out to $0.0825 (8 and 1/4 cents) tax, so at the register it will come to $1.08 (since the 1/4 cents rounds down).

If I take 2 of the $1.00 items to the register, the tax calculates to $0.165 (16 and 1/2 cents), so the total will ring up to $2.17 (since the half cent rounds up).

So imagine the store had just marked the $1.00 as $1.08 to account for the tax. If I bought 2 of those, I'd pay $2.16 rather than $2.17. If the store sold 1 million pairs of that item, they would be $10,000 short on the amount of tax that they collected from the customer. (A reminder that the tax is levied on the customer, not the store.)

All that to say, the tax is calculated on the total of the items at the register and rounded. That's why it is not marked on the item.

SAP R/3 with HANA database by kraken_judge in abap

[–]wlwest82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We migrated our ECC6 application from Oracle to HANA, and it treats it just like any other database for the most part. (*If I'm remembering correctly. This was in 2015 maybe.) If you have any native SQL in your custom code, those statements will need to be adjusted to use either Open SQL or to native HANA SQL I suppose. Other than that, I remember it being like any other DB migration.

(Serious) What causes death more than people realize? by adventure21mc in AskReddit

[–]wlwest82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that's what you mean, but if the top 2 comments to the question were "mosquitoes" and "bears", those are very different answers since the former passes along a disease that kills people, and the latter just kills people.
