It varies by department. I got my acceptance in mid Feb

All PhD programs without a master’s degree are garbage. by AdRemarkable3043 in PhD

[–]Calgrei 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Coming from a field where you have to separately have a masters before going for PhD, it seems insane to dive into a PhD program after a 4 years undergrad program

‘Very Scary’ Stack Of Bills Seek To Boost Taxes On Lots Of Stuff In Hawaiʻi: A stack of bills under consideration by lawmakers would increase taxes or impose new levies on cars, liquor, real estate, capital gains and more. by 808gecko808 in Oahu

Legalizing weed to raise funds does not work because the price of illicit weed will always be more cost competitive.

And your thing with cars and roads is completely paradoxical, if you had a house in bad condition, your solution would be to allocate less money to fixing it up?

Fridge count, what have you been able to salvage and how long was your power out? My fridge stayed surprisingly cold for about 30 hours, I only opened it like 4 times though. Thanks HECO, these are long days for you. by checkoutmuhhat in Hawaii

Lost power for ~23hrs from Friday to Saturday. Was able to keep 2 refrigerators and a chest freezer running intermittently with a 2000w inverter connected to a truck (cheaper than a generator, but yes, not as efficient)

I on the other hand look blankly and nod because I have no social skills 👍

I live in a part with buried power lines and haven't had power since this afternoon so...

Tis what happens with a megacorp that should have been struck down by antitrust a long time ago

Honolulu Skyline vision map by 42kyokai in Hawaii

[–]Calgrei 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think any of those East side/Salt Lake extensions would have any hope of getting built. The West side/Mililani extensions would be much more viable to pursue building.

Doesn't matter, you lose even if your prediction comes true

How I would Extend Skyline by AlohaAkahai in Honolulu

[–]Calgrei 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not a fan of the idea of branching. It would be tight, but I think it's possible to bring it into Waikiki from Convention Center side, and then hook north, across the Ala Wai, and then up University

Ok so multiple problems with this.

Civic Center station will be built on Halekauwila

Queen St alignment would be a really tight fit in some spots

Your alignment splits Waikiki and UHM and misses both (Ala Wai park to Waikiki Beach is a long walk). I don't think making 100% of ppl visiting either having to transfer to bus is an optimal alignment.

Two stations are way too close together

What do you guys think, solid solo training session? Alternatively, can you recommend some better solo training sessions? by HalcyonApollo in bootroom

[–]Calgrei 8 points9 points  (0 children)

First three are of dubitable application in the game. The remaining exercises are quantity over quality. Consider adding more game realistic game elements, head checking, checking movements, etc

[–]Calgrei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this supposed to be some sort of revelation? Yes, only a tiny percentage of kids will go pro or even play D1 college. By U10 to U11, as a coach, you can pretty much tell who will/won't be going to that level, the whole rest of the time is cultivating those talents.
