Great episode as always. In Australia we have that pre-filling of tax data from employers, banks and some investments. It's in the free MyGov app so people can do their own tax returns with pre-filled data. Boggles my mind that you guys don't have stuff like this in America.
There are ways to add in memory with the proper harnesses. It is apparent no Ai builders were consulted here
21:36 that letter is hilarious 🤣

Don't you have access to face your accuser? They're bashing your teaching style or educational liberty to present alternative methods of approaching CPE. I guess they're too worried about CPE sponsors going against the grain.
Woo-hoo! Made it live
