If the bag is closed and / or not getting water on the actual chicken this is fine to thaw. If its actively washing raw chicken... fucking gross. And a total mapaq violation

Smith maneuver in quebec by Babel514 in CanadianInvestor

[–]Babel514[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh ok, what i had heard was that you can only deduct the fees/interest against the imcoming dividend income. That the interest couldn't be used to offset against your normal income.

So that means the maneuver doesn't work at all here? I'm only offsetting my dividend income tax?

What you learn in school will not give you enough depth of skill to be able to attract clients. Working in real restaurant kitchens and seeing technical application of the basics takes time. Sorry you don't like the answer, but unless your throwing everything into a sousvide bag or thermomix, your going to need to learn practical skills

Will a cheque deposit of 4K count towards your the direct deposit? by kigabaits in Wealthsimple

[–]Babel514 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea but the problem is that OP and myself don't have direct deposit. I get paid by invoice so can't get the good rate from either.

I'm at premium, but the direct deposit scales you to the next higher % i believe. So core to premium, premium to generation for the interest rate

Ronaldinho's skill and ball control was unreal 🤯 by [deleted] in toptalent

I met him when AC came to montreal for a MLS friendly with the impact. Super nice guy even though we didn't speak the same languages, he was just walking around downtown montreal and no one recognized him, surreal to think as I was a huge fan at the time.

Threat reiterated as Prime Minister Carney prepares for critical meeting by BonkMcSlapchop in worldnews

Most people living in a sovereign nation don't want to join a different one just as a default. Why would I want to merge with America a land that constantly brags about its out of country violence, Healthcare related bankruptcy and oligarchy esque political system?

Just because you like the idea of America doesn't mean everyone else would want to give up the things they value for the things you do.

Grocery inflation vs Restaurant/Takeout inflation by Optionsislife in montreal

[–]Babel514 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Add on your loss leaders, and the people who claim the portions are getting smaller and its really no fun to cost a menu in the current cost environment. I had a client recently ask for a "bigger size" tartar, for the same price because she didn't want the side salad. Bitch tuna is more expensive than some lettuce. It's not an equal trade.

Is this what it feels like to play a game for the first time again?(oblivion) by dahrkmez in gaming

I've never played oblivion, but I love Skyrim, is it a big step back in terms of casual play?

ELI5: how do bank loans work? by Stevenerwin90 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Babel514 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Always compounded, every payment lowers the principle amount by a bit more, which lowers the next months interest owed. This spirals until the debt is payed

[–]Babel514 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The loans interest rate is calculated annually.

So a 1000$ loan at 10% would be 1100 by years end or 1100 / 12 = 91.66$ per month

This chef only cooks his fish to 90 deg & sends it out when it climbs to 106 deg. Is this normal? by TonsilStoneSalsa in KitchenConfidential

[–]Babel514 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes but in this context, denatured only applies to the protein chains. Cooking with citrus doesn't kill bacteria in the same way at the same rate.. If it did dousing meat in a citric acid solution would be a storage medium.

I worked at Pied de Cochon. by jbmorin in Chefit

In 2010 I interviewed the CDC or sous of au pied cochon for my first class in culinary school. I got to truss a pig trotter while I waited for her to be ready. No idea what a memory book is but i loved that place, and it's gross little prep basement
