The wiki page on leading and lagging current might as well be "demons and shit". Practical Engineering talks a bit about it in this video on power grids.

Answering that is actually very complicated and a great example of what the article is talking about. Trump specifically can vote because, while he lives in Florida, the conviction wasn't in Florida but in New York. Florida defers to New York laws in that case. New York law says that only incarcerated felons cannot vote. Trump isn't incarcerated so New York law says he can vote, meaning Florida law also says he can vote. If he was convicted in Florida, he wouldn't be able to vote until his sentence was served, regardless of if that sentence was incarceration or probation. There are also certain crimes Florida never gives voting rights back if convicted, unless the Governor grants clemency.

There aren't enough healthcare workers to meet the demand. Around 15% of Ontarians do not have a family doctor and use emergency rooms for their primary care. Emergency room wait times have become excessive with some hospitals reporting 20 hour wait times. Around 48% of nurses have reported they are considering switching careers, mostly citing excessive work hours and little pay to show for it. Ontario is the most populated province but spends the least on healthcare per capita.

This is why I don't give people gifts and tell others not to give me gifts. Holidays arent about gifts. If I do get a gift, I give it back to them the next year. Bonus points for giving it back in the exact same gift bag. After a decade of this, people have finally stopped giving me gifts!

This made me curious as to how many different legal systems there were. This wiki page has a global map of systems. Surprisingly, there isn’t a lot of variety. Most legal systems tend to be based on legislation (called civil law, originating in Rome), court rulings (called common law, originating in Briton), religious texts (called canon for christian, sharia for muslim, and halakha for jewish), or some mixture of those.

My mother used to say she felt like she had "foggy brain" a lot. Turned out she had sleep apnea.
