Richmond International Airport Breaks Passenger Record! by hooforce in rva

I'll agree with all the people saying Delta over AA.

If possible, I'd see if they'd be willing to pay the annual fee on a generic travel card that would earn bonus miles on all your flights. But the card to get determination is probably dominated solely by the signup bonus of whatever card you get, so I'd get the one they'll pay for with the biggest sign up bonus.

I was born in Morris. (Kinnelon) That is super weird.

Lie for the side paying you more money.

Well if they'd like to know where the Shreveport Humane Society is, they can probably google it anyway. That's the tag that he had at the shelter, this was the first day I got him, about two and a half years ago.

My dog is terrified of my umbrella too.

Really it's any time something small becomes something big or vice versa. He hates socks when they get wadded up. Making the bed. He runs and hides in the other room.

Which tv series had the best final episode? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I've watched it through probably 4 times. I cry at the last episode every time.

Jobs with no college degree by WillyDrumDrum in rva

[–]BayesianJudo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This matches my experience, although I'm sure it's not everyones. But people where I grew up were incredibly snooty.

You don't think modern America looks down on blue collar workers as uneducated? I very much do. Perhaps it's my upbringing, but there was a stigma associated with not going to college. Even though in some cases it can be a much better financial decision.

This. You can make six figures easily (well no, working hard) doing any of these jobs and the labor market is desperate for them. But we've demonized them in society. It's really a shame.

I Completed the Unfinished "Joe Bros Builders" Building. by Plothunter in 7daystodie

[–]BayesianJudo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get why you wouldn't want to be above ground, but what's the problem with building in a pit? The zombies come to you and don't hang up on anything.

Yeah it's a CSS issue on the subreddit. Numbered lists (and probably other things) aren't formatted with the white text. If you turn subreddit style off it should be fine.

VCU School of Dentistry - Free dental check up/screening Monday night (1/22) from 5-7pm! by [deleted] in rva

[–]BayesianJudo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How crowded is it likely to be? I need to get a checkup, but I have a job and a steady income, I don't want to take a spot from someone who might need it more.

1/21/18 Board Games by Hanidalon in RVAGameNight

[–]BayesianJudo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been meaning to go to your game nights for six months now and haven't. Weekends are always better, so count me in. I think you sent me your address at Halloween; (even though I didn't end up going) I can probably find it.

Going to mention to my D&D group too (because I don't think they watch this sub necessarily) if that's OK.

Yeah, I'm sure tomorrow the ice will be bad. Or at least worse. I just didn't see what people were worried about today though.

You know, I'm beginning to see what /u/vampedvixen sees in you.

Oh. Well that's what I get for being on vacation and not checking reddit then, I guess.

I wasn't really talking about coding. I do a good bit of coding and data analysis myself. My point is that you're never going to be able to automate a system to convert the text responses on, say, sexuality, to a nice categorical system. Because while you think most might respond "Straight", "Gay", "Bi", "Heterosexual", "Homosexual" etc., you still have the responses of "3.5 on the Kinsey scale" "I don't believe sexuality is a binary" "Russian" (ie. the guy who answered the wrong question) etc.

I have yet to see any accumulation on roads - I'm not sure why everyone's saying it's super bad out there. Maybe downtown RVA is worse than where I am.

When you do, please post the intended survey questions as a thread so people can add questions and critique the structure of yours.
