In a market with high uncertainty, more companies are likely to abandon it than hope that their actuaries get the numbers exactly right.

Same. The only time my TV leaves HDMI3 is when I want to watch a Kraken game (local OTA subchannel that isn't on YoutubeTV) or Formula E (US broadcast rights are on Roku Channel which isn't available on AppleTV devices). I do have

Depends if you use the cloud storage. 6TB of cloud storage for $99/yr with the standard Office Suite thrown in isn't too bad.

It's available through Costco. I'm sure Amazon and other similar retailers have it as well. 2024 Version.

At UW? No. You must log in at exactly 6am (preferably 5:58) on your registration day. Have your planned schedule in hand with all class codes and multiple backups. Assuming the system doesn't crash repeatedly, all of the required and&#

It's a bit like the insurance market. We buy insurance because bearing the cost of misfortune is too much to bear as an individual. In the same way, paying hundreds of dollars to fix a broken window is a significant burden to the indiv

At some point you price out an entire generation and find they've moved on to something else like e-sports.

Please more leagues just give me a reasonably priced service to get all the games. In the US, the full F1 season is $90. The full MLB season can be had for about $100 if you buy it on sale. I got last season for $40 by waiting until June. I

I picked up a couple of these at IKEA years ago. Sets on the lip of most mugs for brewing and then can be removed and placed in its holder to contain drips. https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/ljudloes-tea-infuser-st

Honestly, I think the thing that got Pat fired was agreeing to suspend stock buybacks for five years as part of the CHIPS act money deal. The Board needs to be able to prop up their investments.

Certainly there are those who say the IQ tests themselves are discriminatory. I'm not qualified to say how much truth there is in that. But that is the likely reason they went away. In my case I changed schools in the middle of second

Is that why Elon Musk's mom went on TV to explain just how much of a genius he is? It would be laughable if it wasn't so sad.

Sorry but the citizens of Detroit don't select the school board in Alpena. Too many Americans focus on a Presidential election every four years that gets decided by a couple hundred thousand people in 4 or 5 states and ignore all of th

True. Counselors at poorer school districts frequently don't recognize that these "dream schools" are often more affordable than a state school for certain populations. The students certainly don't know it unless a trust

Note that aid includes federal student loans though. They may have needed to come up with $22,000 out of pocket but also have taken on thousands more in loans that will need to be paid back. If they don't have the $22,000, then private

I think Minneapolis has a citywide 20 mph speed limit for non-arterial roads. They might consider the rough road a feature.

Oregon has tried to implement a miles tax multiple times but failed to pass it. Instead they've opted for a surcharge on vehicle registrations for EVs and also on any vehicle that gets better than 20 mpg. Counterproductive from a clima

I wonder if California would be better off with more Carmageddon type projects like when they shut down the 405 for like a week and hammered out necessary work.

Start with the fire department. They are the ones demanding 60 ft wide residential streets so that their trucks can turn around without having to drive a few blocks out of the way.

This works well in suburbs with modern setback rules. It doesn't work so well in established urban areas where buildings often go right up to the sidewalk which goes right up to the road.

Does BC allow chains instead of winter tires? Oregon does for cars and light trucks. WA seems to be more of a free for all but also tends to completely shut down their passes more often than Oregon does.

Do you own a home? Every apartment I've ever lived in prohibited doing any car maintainance on the property.

I'd imagine most Californians are using chains or other traction devices rather than snow tires. Snow tires would be awful in the Bay Area or pretty much any of the state's main cities.

Not sure when snow tires became more mainstream but I started driving in Michigan in the late 80s and didn't know a single family that used snow tires. Where I live now snow tires only make sense for those who live in or visit the moun
