you will still need to manually input your information from the forms you receive. it just files your taxes for you. it doesn’t do them for you.

because they said they wouldn’t. the direct file program said they’re placing themselves as an option besides ones already on the market and will NOT replace any existing technology already on the market. so you still need to manually file with them. it’s not the situation where they already have the documents so you don’t have to do anything.
Edit:
The IRS tool is meant to be an additional option people have to file their tax returns and will not replace any existing options for filing, said IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel on a call with reporters Wednesday.
yeah I agree. that’s why I included that the perspective was as somebody who can afford it and that I still hate what Intuit does. But at the same time saying I like the product instead of the TurboTax sucks circlejerking that the Internet loves doing.
unpopular opinion, but, as someone who can afford it, I like TurboTax as a product. hate Intuit as a company for all their bs lobbying, but I like having TurboTax as an option. I have like a dozen accounts across multiple banks and turbotax gets me done with my taxes in like 30 or less every year for cheaper than my old accountant did when I used one.
I like how many devs this pissed off. this picture is whack tho wtf
(Linus leans back in his chair, a glint of amusement in his eyes, and gestures toward Richard Stallman who is seated across from him. Richard, ever the passionate advocate, is already gesturing with his hands.)
“Well, if you’re talking about the revolution in computing, you can’t forget about this fella right here, Mr. Stallman.”
(He gives Richard a playful nudge.)
“He’s the one who really gave us the framework, the ideals, the whole ‘free software’ movement.”
Richard, his eyes gleaming with conviction, jumps in.
“It’s not just about code, Linus. It’s about freedom, about users having control over their own technology. It’s about sharing, about building on each other’s work, and refusing to be locked in by proprietary systems.” (He leans forward, his voice gaining intensity.)
"We had to fight for that freedom, against the corporations who wanted to control every bit of software, every line of code. But we won, and GNU is proof that free software can not only work but thrive. "
Linus nods in agreement, a hint of respect in his voice.
“He’s right, you know. Without the GNU tools, without Richard’s vision, Linux wouldn’t be what it is today. It wouldn’t be as powerful, as flexible, as truly free.”
(He turns back to you, a mischievous glint in his eyes.)
“But don’t let them fool you, we weren’t always the best of friends. We had our disagreements, our battles over licensing, our philosophical differences. But hey, that’s part of the fun, isn’t it?”
(He grins, leaning back in his chair.)
“In the end, we were all working towards the same goal, a world where software is free for all to use, share, and improve. And that’s a goal worth fighting for, wouldn’t you say?”
if I’m leading a project, I avoid this by begging POs to give me a sprint 0 where i solo code out all the scaffolding ground work before all the other engineers join the project.
a slice a suck I used to say
I used to prostitute myself in class for people’s slices
you two are like the spider man meme
oh no now I can’t get from Idaho to Jackson… so anyway…
tldr it’s all pain and red hat owns your soul.
thank GOD the trump news broke or else this would’ve been major
I mean even though the CAS is a state organization of China, they do still put out real science. they have real researchers working with and for them. I’m honestly more concerned about what they don’t put out than what they do.
too bad. get back to work, single mf
i can see why you feel that way, I do too but that’s not how it works. they’re trying to charge the person who shot a person to death. Alec is a part of that plain and simple. he shot the gun.
how is a person getting shot not the fault of the person shooting the gun? like bro if somebody gives you a gun saying it’s empty and you shoot somebody to death with it. you’re free to go? nah
well the difference is that the government won’t go oops you traded a stock, so you need to use premium for $120 and also shove sales and dark patterns in your face to trick you into buying premium. most others that were free usually charged to file state taxes or something or another too. definitely a win for the average joe, but it’s not the process that people are imagining. the IRS has pretty directly said that they are providing another option to people and not making other services obsolete.
