The document discusses challenges and benefits of implementing the Goods & Services Tax (GST) system in India. Some key challenges are passing legislation through Parliament, integrating IT systems, and gaining cooperation from state governments. Potential benefits include a unified market that reduces business costs, lower tax burdens and prices for consumers, improved compliance, and increased tax revenue collections.
How Gst & Demonetisation Affects Your Personal Wealth
The document discusses how demonetization and GST have changed the face of India by formalizing and financializing the economy. It notes that demonetization increased funds for banks to lend, moving the economy from cash to digital payments. GST is described as a business reform rather than just a tax reform. It is expected to make India more competitive globally and shift it from a trading hub to a manufacturing hub as systems improve. The challenges discussed include revenue slippages during GST implementation and higher government spending. Impacts on wealth are discussed for equity, debt, real estate and gold markets.
Pe5e chapter 13 v1.0
This document discusses different types of wealth and property taxes. It defines wealth as accumulated savings, investments, gifts and inheritances. It discusses defining the tax base for a wealth tax and property tax. It also examines the merits and shortcomings of taxing personal net wealth, and analyzes the effects of property taxes using benefit and incidence analyses.
Pe5e chapter 08 v1.0
The document discusses key concepts related to income distribution and social policy, including distinguishing primary from secondary income distribution, calculating Gini coefficients to measure inequality, understanding the redistributive impact of subsidies and transfers, and major trends in social spending in South Africa.

Photography rules poweroint jack rogers
The document discusses several rules and techniques of photography including the rule of thirds, framing, leading lines, balancing elements, symmetry and patterns, and depth of field. The rule of thirds involves dividing an image into thirds both vertically and horizontally to place important elements. Framing focuses the viewer's attention using doorways or archways. Leading lines guide the eye through an image along paths or edges. Balancing elements evenly distributes weight across the image. Symmetry and patterns create reflected repetition. Depth of field determines the range of distance in focus.
Pe5e chapter 10 v1.0
The document discusses key concepts related to government taxation including:
- Defining different types of taxes such as income tax, property tax, sales tax, and how they contribute to total tax revenue
- Describing tax rates as proportional, progressive, or regressive and tax bases as income, wealth, or consumption
- Distinguishing between broad-based and narrow-based taxes, as well as direct and indirect taxes
- Explaining the properties of a good tax including generating sufficient revenue, being equitable and efficient to administer
- Defining concepts like statutory versus economic tax burden and using partial versus general equilibrium frameworks to analyze tax incidence

SAY NO TO PESTICIDES
The students at Satya Elementary School in Gomla, Haryana aimed to encourage village farmers and the community to stop using pesticides and switch to organic fertilizers like composting. They raised awareness about the health and environmental impacts of pesticides through rallies, community meetings, and demonstrations. The community responded positively and many farmers pledged to reduce or eliminate pesticide use. The students felt they learned about the dangers of pesticides and the benefits of vermicomposting, and the community impact was that many farmers now grow crops without pesticides.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Cosa hanno in comune un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ?
ABSTRACT: A prima vista, un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ potrebbero avere in comune il fatto di essere entrambi blocchi di costruzione, o dipendenze di progetti creativi e software. La realtà è che un mattoncino Lego e il caso della backdoor XZ hanno molto di più di tutto ciò in comune.
Partecipate alla presentazione per immergervi in una storia di interoperabilità, standard e formati aperti, per poi discutere del ruolo importante che i contributori hanno in una comunità open source sostenibile.

HCL Notes und Domino Lizenzkostenreduzierung in der Welt von DLAU
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-und-domino-lizenzkostenreduzierung-in-der-welt-von-dlau/
DLAU und die Lizenzen nach dem CCB- und CCX-Modell sind für viele in der HCL-Community seit letztem Jahr ein heißes Thema. Als Notes- oder Domino-Kunde haben Sie vielleicht mit unerwartet hohen Benutzerzahlen und Lizenzgebühren zu kämpfen. Sie fragen sich vielleicht, wie diese neue Art der Lizenzierung funktioniert und welchen Nutzen sie Ihnen bringt. Vor allem wollen Sie sicherlich Ihr Budget einhalten und Kosten sparen, wo immer möglich. Das verstehen wir und wir möchten Ihnen dabei helfen!
Wir erklären Ihnen, wie Sie häufige Konfigurationsprobleme lösen können, die dazu führen können, dass mehr Benutzer gezählt werden als nötig, und wie Sie überflüssige oder ungenutzte Konten identifizieren und entfernen können, um Geld zu sparen. Es gibt auch einige Ansätze, die zu unnötigen Ausgaben führen können, z. B. wenn ein Personendokument anstelle eines Mail-Ins für geteilte Mailboxen verwendet wird. Wir zeigen Ihnen solche Fälle und deren Lösungen. Und natürlich erklären wir Ihnen das neue Lizenzmodell.
Nehmen Sie an diesem Webinar teil, bei dem HCL-Ambassador Marc Thomas und Gastredner Franz Walder Ihnen diese neue Welt näherbringen. Es vermittelt Ihnen die Tools und das Know-how, um den Überblick zu bewahren. Sie werden in der Lage sein, Ihre Kosten durch eine optimierte Domino-Konfiguration zu reduzieren und auch in Zukunft gering zu halten.
Diese Themen werden behandelt
- Reduzierung der Lizenzkosten durch Auffinden und Beheben von Fehlkonfigurationen und überflüssigen Konten
- Wie funktionieren CCB- und CCX-Lizenzen wirklich?
- Verstehen des DLAU-Tools und wie man es am besten nutzt
- Tipps für häufige Problembereiche, wie z. B. Team-Postfächer, Funktions-/Testbenutzer usw.
- Praxisbeispiele und Best Practices zum sofortigen Umsetzen
