I'm no financial expert, but lower your spend (kill useless subscriptions, live frugal), shop smarter (cheaper brands, less indulging in things like eating out), invest only if you feel like dollar cost averaging will pay off in the lo

To your point I came across this a moment ago: https://selftaughtjapanese.com/2014/03/19/research-results-h... While there are a ridiculous amount of homophones (top 3 are 45, 38, 31!), it does look like the

I'll highlight Japanese because that is what I know. A lot of imagery can be conveyed with choice of characters. Whether alternate readings in a novel, or brilliant neon signs on the street, you get a lot more information at a glance d

It's honestly a lot easier as a foreigner, your place of work takes care of your taxes for you. That said, I've had to file taxes outside of that scope before and it was fairly straightforward. They have people at the tax office t

I just imagined a Spaceballs-esque scene where they shout "Enhance!" and the resulting image is one if those crazy AI generated pictures where everything morphs into some semblance of a cat-but-not-really.

Clearly whoever titled the article thought it would have more impact. There's a lot of juicy ambiguity behind 14%. A percentage of what? A layman isn't going to know that it's only a 90 person company. They do know that 14% l

Not the OP, however, I haven't found a product that's easy to drop options trading data into. I'd love to switch off of TurboTax, but I'm not putting hundreds of trades into a system manually - their import function make

Whoa, I recall spinning a box up on JohnCompanies back when you guys first popped onto the scene. Cool to see people still building on FreeBSD, sad to see that it's an uphill battle to stay relevant with it.

I've revisited FreeBSD on and off since 1997, the last time being end of last year. Couldn't get my USB Schiit stack working unfortunately, which was a bummer.
