The state supplemental income tax withholding rates currently available for 2020 are shown in the chart below. For instance, consider if the supplemental withholding rate is significantly higher or lower than the withholding result using the applicable marginal withholding rate. Where allowed, the supplemental rate greatly simplifies income tax withholding calculations on irregular payments such as bonuses, equity compensation and separation pay.Įven if a supplemental rate of withholding is an option, employers should consider any potential impact of over- or under-withholding. Similar to the federal supplemental income tax withholding rate, most states also allow for an optional flat percentage of income tax withholding for wages that are in addition to regular pay. This mandatory 37% rate applies even if the employee has submitted a federal Form W-4 claiming exemption from federal income tax withholding. If the employee's supplemental wages exceed $1 million in the year, a mandatory flat rate of 37% applies to supplemental wages over $ 1 million. Withholding on supplemental/nonperiodic wage paymentsįor federal income tax withholding purposes, employers may optionally use a flat rate of 22% on supplemental wages up to $1 million for the year, provided federal income tax was withheld from regular wages in the previous or current year.

In the context of second-order coherence theory for statistically stationary quasi-monochromatic complex scalar fields, the statistics of the partially coherent disturbance can be described by two-point correlation functions such as the cross-spectral density W. However, all realistic sources are partially coherent. Such a field, which is perfectly spatially and temporally coherent, has wavefronts corresponding to surfaces of constant phase. For a mono-energetic complex scalar wave, the situation is clear: the “phase” is equal to the argument (“arg”) of the complex function describing the field. It may surprise you that there is some confusion as to the meaning of the term “phase”, in the context of propagation-based phase retrieval. Propagation-based phase retrieval, namely the recovery of the phase of a forward propagating (and typically paraxial) optical field from intensity measurements over one or more planes perpendicular to the optic axis, is of importance for a variety of radiation and matter wavefields.

A United Kingdom court found that a U.K.-based 18-year-old, Arion Kurtaj, was largely responsible for the hack. The hacker claimed to have accessed Rockstar’s internal Slack, which is an application workplaces use to communicate and share files. ![]() The leaked footage depicted a GTA 6 that was clearly in development, with debug tools, blocked-out environments, and all. The leak was, and still is, unprecedented because of its sheer scope, the level of anticipation for the game in question, and because of how rare it is for fans to see huge parts of a AAA video game in a visibly unfinished state. 18, 2022, a hacker published more than 90 videos - roughly an hour’s worth of footage - from the in-development game. Later that year, GTA 6 made history as Rockstar’s developers were subject to one of the largest leaks in modern video game history. Rockstar has been quiet about GTA 6 for most of the past 10 years the studio didn’t acknowledge the game was in development until February 2022. GTA 5 was released 10 years ago, and people have been salivating ever since at the prospect of the sixth entry in the series. Grand Theft Auto is one of the video game industry’s most successful properties, which makes it a hot target for hackers and potential leaks. In the case of GTA 6, the early launch of the trailer hasn’t diluted the hype When The Last of Us Part 2’s PlayStation 5 remaster was leaked early on the PlayStation Store by data miners looking for new information, hours later, an official trailer popped up on YouTube, with several prominent Naughty Dog developers declaring that “leaks really suck.” (In Naughty Dog’s case, however, timing for The Last of Us Part 2’s remaster wasn’t announced, and it’s possible the YouTube release was its planned time.) It’s unusual for a company like Rockstar to disregard its original, announced schedule and just post the thing, but it’s not the first time it’s happened. About 30 minutes later Rockstar did the corporate equivalent of saying “Fuck it,” uploading the trailer and pointing to it in a terse post on X: “Our trailer has leaked so please watch the real thing on YouTube.” With just over 24 hours left before Rockstar Games was set to debut its first Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer, a grainy video started circulating online: The GTA 6 trailer, but marked with a massive bitcoin watermark. ![]() ![]() ![]() Playing against a computer is a bit tricky.
