Tax filing! Ugh.
I had to call the TurboTax people today to ask what some of the questions on the Cdn tax form meant. Like this strange negative question:
Do you have no income to report on lines 10500 through 15000? (Yes or no). (I do have, so is the answer yes, or no?) I put no, but it's an odd way to ask.
Other weird questions, too. Some are statements but with a Yes or No to check. I am wondering if this was created with #AI.
