Yeah you can get simulated divided lights (SDL) on a modern window. I guess I am a bit of a stickler for these things, heh. I can see a modern Georgian type thing though. Definitely nicer than so much of the garbage being built today.

You can get a new home built in Georgian Revival style but it’s going to be expensive. Home builders rely on easy to source, mass produced, standard parts. In my experience the cost goes way up. For instance, a truss can’t be used for the r

I think it’s on Disney+. If I have to hear “hot dog hot hot diggity dog” one more time…

I’m assuming you don’t have kids? Little kids love Mickey Mouse and there’s lots of old and new content featuring him. Little kids still dream of going to Disney World to meet Mickey Mouse and the other characters.

A lot of people get paid in part with stock options that don’t even have tangible value necessarily.

Where in the hype cycle are we for LLMs? Are we in the late stages of the rise or over the peak and beginning the slide?

Isn’t this a net good though? Most people benefit from cattle being as affordable as possible. If we charged ranchers to graze their livestock we’d see the cost passed onto consumers. This is a large reason we subsidize so much farming. It

Wouldn’t they always hunt whatever is easiest? Why would they play on hard mode? It’s not like they see it as a sport where there’s more to be had by setting up rules to make it “sporting”. Don’t they just want as much food as they can get

I guess you don’t cook? The main function of a stove is to work with your pans/etc to create the heat you desire. Different applications have different requirements. I may use a cast iron pan to store a lot of heat and release it over

Electric kettles are great for heating water quickly. Pans coming to temp sooner would be useful if the gap was measured in large units of time but it isn’t. I care more about the properties of the pan and fire more. For instance cast iron

Heating up water quickly is almost never a use case. It is not on the critical path for optimizations either. Unless you subsist on boiling noodles when you’re late for a meeting.

Induction limits how I can cook compared to gas burners. There are fewer techniques and methods available and is unacceptable for how I like to cook. Induction is great for some people but for many people it comes up short. Cooking anything

by nemo44x 3y ago
Induction is better than electric but it isn’t as good as gas in my opinion. You can’t use copper cookware, you are very limited on how you apply heat, you can’t use techniques like flambé, you can’t hold food directly over a flame to singe

How much is that going to cost? You need to get the tree hauled to a mill if one is close by and cut into lumber that needs to be sorted through to select pieces that are furniture grade and then sent to a craftsman to actually make it. Sou

The problem with ash trees is they fall apart easily. Limbs and branches are brittle and fall down frequently. So they’re dangerous trees. Especially once emerald ash bore takes root. Ashes are not very good trees to keep on a property with

If you’re atheist or of a religion that isn’t relevant then why do you care? There’s no spiritual meaning. It’s just a day off. Get off the fence and own your convictions.

Sure if you could clarify specifically what you mean.

Covid maybe in part but it’s mainly because of the demands that enforcing laws must stop by activists and certain political organizations. So crime is up and the city looks shabby and there’s drugged out zombies and homeless everywhere. So

Indeed. A group of people went through 15 years of financial hardship and horrific war and it made them so strong willed and determined to do something with surviving that. I’m grateful to not have to have gone through all that but also acc

I don’t know how well it holds today but for some time it was known that running certain computations on existing hardware would take longer than waiting for new hardware and running when available.

Well, I interpreted this: > The best ride in a car isn't one in which I'm driving or not driving, it's one in which I don't get in the car in the first place. As saying you don't see any need for cars at all. Tha

by nemo44x 3y ago
This is such a ridiculous thing to say. Cars are so immensely useful because I can go to exactly where I want to when I want to. I can transport people and things easily. How do I take a train or a bike 80 miles away to go hiking, boating (

I guess the robustness of the economy too. Losing your job when there’s a lot of hiring might not be the worst. Of course, most mass firings happen when the economy isn’t doing well and finding work can be a challenge if you’re not top tale

I think it's great they lay it out. I never understood the whole "we're a family" thing that so many companies, especially startups, pretend to do. Netflix is open that they want the best players they possibly can so the

Is there a good time? If anything I'd rather get fired before the holidays and spend time with family rather than work through it all and miss time and then get fired afterwards.

Geometry and abstract math is important. But getting the practical stuff into even remedial heads is necessary to. Should do both.

A lot of kids parents can’t teach this or don’t know how or if they even need to. Yes give complex topics for those that can. But have a basement level of basic personal finance. Don’t care if not interested because it will be relevant. Mak
