I think everyone deserves affordable housing, but I don't think people are entitled to a house specifically.

honestly i think certain builds of manufactured homes are within reach if the property taxes and land are reasonably priced. it would certainly be easier for married buyers with joint finances though, something increasingly rare among the working class.

Rotten potatoes are one of the worst things I've ever smelled. Did that once and they were oozing brown liquid from the cabinet and stunk like a mix between bad breath, shit, and a dead animal.

imagine hundreds, thousands of fruit flies everywhere in the house and you can't figure out where the hell they're coming from in spite of wiping, scrubbing, brushing every single surface and corner of the house clean

and when you finally open the cabinet in question, you get hit with a massive cloud of fruit flies, plus a rotten bag of potatoes that needs to be cleaned up

but yeah, it's all around awful

platonically - only a couple people come to mind off the top of my head
professionally - a half dozen or so
romantically - close to a couple dozen i guess

and then i guess there's meetup, where i've been involved with a half dozen or so groups

i got an electric tennis racket i bought a couple years ago after a roommate left a bag of potatoes to rot in a neglected cabinet

what boards have been shut down or locked by fandom so far

i think i'll include refuges for them all

It's pretty cool to do this just to learn how to do it for yourself of course

i did this for a living for a decade bro

i'm sure the threads ce is thriving but total opacity by default and requiring an invite link that's passed around by word of mouth doesn't sit so well with me

it ain't much, but it's honest work

on advice from posters in an earlier topic, i stuck to the traditional lamp paradigm, aside from using a distributed version of sqlite. long way to go, esp. before parity with gamefaqs' feature set, but at least the stack is tied together and the most basic functionality is working.

i've noticed the same thing in downtown austin (as compared to, say, the greater metro or the boondocks)

it may be that it has a higher income crowd with higher lifestyle, fitness, and personal presentation standards and the means and luxury to accomplish it and probably some [unspoken] social pressure to conform to such

are the venture capitalists ok

the biggest since mj (edit: stateside), perhaps, but not bigger than mj

her broader cultural footprint is also not too significant; she's extremely popular and relevant in the states but she isn't fundamentally changing the trajectory of music or entertainment stylistically in a way that will be remembered years from now, except maybe the business of music

i have a short list of favorite users and you're on it

i'd invest or save it

if fandom is going to totally destroy every aspect of the broader community that does not strictly pertain to gaming, the least they could do is divest the data to sballen to run a standalone website or something

if they don't care about the concerns of the longstanding userbase, they don't deserve our traffic

YouTube loves to make new rules and not tell anyone about them than retroactively strike your channel for said rules citing this is not allowed even tho it previously was.

a few months ago a ton of users got strikes for having playlists with one or more videos that were taken down for violating the site's terms

what's ridiculous is that (1) it was not their videos, and (2) the playlists were autocreated by youtube years ago and populated with every video the users "liked," and (3) the video which triggered the strike was not actually specified

had success in the early/mid '10s, but the ux went to trash in years since and dating culture has become similarly awful

if it was for sale as a standalone asset i'd certainly want to sit down with the owners and gather some perspective on its financials, towards the ends of negotiating a reasonable acquisition price

i'd seriously consider it at 100k but i'd still try to haggle

normally i'm skeptical about the claims of the impact of policy on wages, but this really does encourage more competitive compensation for retaining talent, never mind encouraging companies to think twice about dismissing valuable expertise and effectively giving them to competition

Yeah I don't remember how I did but both pits I had all I had to do was yell yard and they'd come back into the yard. They never went outside without me with them.

for sure. i have friends with gentle and extremely well-behaved pits, even around strangers. this is not one of those cases.

i order my groceries from it, beats walmart by a country mile

it's a bold idea but there are far too many conceptual gotchas for it to be viably implemented, never mind all the dark money

what

went to pick up a package from my front doorstep, and lo and behold the neighbor's pit was loose in my yard again and charged at me

was holding my laptop in my other hand since i was in the middle of a call, so i was a bit slower than usual in picking up the package and closing the door, but i managed to get back in the house and slam the door like a split second before it got to me

disappointing, can't even go for walks in the neighborhood without worrying about them, since that's not the only house in the neighborhood with pits that get loose periodically

wasn't long ago someone got attacked in the area, albeit by a pack of huskies; seems like too many people lack the sense of train or properly secure their dogs

paranormal = that which is beyond the normal or our scientific understanding

given the limited scope of human knowledge relative to what fully encompasses reality, it would be irrational not to believe in some abstract notion of the paranormal. i'm confident there have been paranormal or otherwise emergent phenomena which have not been scientifically explained yet, but that does not mean they aren't real before that point.

that's not to say i believe in the specifics of things typically associated with "the paranormal" though.

i don't dislike any side of my family but i kinda favor my paternal grandmother's part of the family because i spent more time with them growing up

i have a bs in cs but i can't comment with confidence about the state of affairs for entry level jobs these days

between the giants hemorrhaging talent into the labor market over the past couple years and companies generally being reluctant to invest in new hires out of paranoia about them job hopping once they've picked up enough credentials and experience, the landscape seems a bit cynical

doesn't mean it's an impossible job market though, especially if you go beyond coursework with respect to extracurricular projects and skills development and are open and ready to work in unlikely corners of the industry early in your career, and it's definitely valuable knowledge base / skillset to have in general

some additional advice:

• also if you can land an intership with a startup, i'd highly encourage it
• pay attention in algorithms and data structures class, arguably the most important course you will take in any undergrad cs program
• if there are cs-related student interest orgs, get involved with them; great for networking and generally being exposed to students interested in and actively doing more than what is required by the degree program
• if there are any software project ideas you're interested in but have no idea how to do right now, that's a great way to begin with self-directed learning

$60 billion to homeless could go into a various number of programs... like food bank services, temporary shelters, drug treatment, ad other resources not just "FREE HOUESS!!!11"

you could build 2.4 homes for each homeless person in the country at the median american home price, or almost 9 homes for each homeless person at the approximate going price for a manufactured home

going with the latter, you could build a home for every homeless person for the country - and fund services for them.
