Slightly OT: how long does it take to get a credit score of 750+ typically? Someone I know who recently moved to US, claims his less-than-a-year credit line is already at 770. It sounds a bit dubious but I would like to hear some validation

HTDP by the same authors is a much more solid foundation. DCIC is okay but I feel for a very narrow spectrum of people.

Minor additional info: From System Information, note the maximum capacity, instead of the designed spec-sheet capacity (with use, always a smaller number than mint condition) and use that as 100%. Battery wear gets to be factored in then.

The US acted with a lot of contempt for "commies" as they called them. The reason they didn't attack was not because of magnanimity but the very fact that world had exhausted itself with the bloodiest war in mankind over the

I wonder how does dang manage it everyday. HN moderation can be so tiring. There is multitude of comment types: insightful, accusatory, snarky etc. And dang does point out the egregious ones every time.
