Reply to comment by BigDeadly in NASA to Get $25.4 Billion in 2023 Federal Budget by Corbulo2526
CPI is just an estimated average, it's the best metric we have.
It's not like NASA isn't going to be affected by increased costs here; using CPI when comparing years is more useful than pretending inflation doesn't exist

Reply to comment by mk09 in TIL that when former White House press secretary James Brady died in 2014, his death was ruled a homicide because it was ultimately caused by a gunshot wound he sustained in 1981, during the attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan by IAmTiborius
Murder charges only require intent to hurt, not intent to kill.
Also, homicide doesn't require any intent at all
