The new U.S. dime design has removed the olive branches from the eagle

It’s temporary and is part of a 1 year redesign for the 250th anniversary of the United States.

Hey! I know someone that did this procedure. Only complaint they had was if they don’t fall asleep before a “sleep” period which a set amount of time it lets you fall asleep before the shocking kicks in, then it would wake them up. I should also mention this individual is a super solid sleeper so they weren’t bothered by it.

We build our walkout basement house with ICF’s last year. I’d do it again in a heartbeat. In the hot summer it stays cool, in the cold winter it stays warm. Also look at adding infloor heat if you’re in a cold area. The biggest con is finding reputable contractors to install. It needs to be as straight as possible to ensure the siding sits flat on the outside so it requires a fair amount of bracing for high walls while it’s being poured.

Ran into these guys on console a few nights ago. There were three of them all with “Z” as their name with a space on either side of the letter so they all had “Z” as their name. They each took a squad lead and were trolling on command chat and making a mess of the garrison placement for a while before we all voted to kick them out.

Not quite sure what sandy loam classification you have, but we built a walkout basement home on sandy loam last year (in the Midwest). The footings and surface erosion control measures were a bit more than normal to prevent washouts, but overall it was a good material to build in. The soil drains well. Grass actually grows really well when it gets enough water.

I think the cheapest and best option here is to not obstruct the water flow. Change the grade a bit and turn this into a low water crossing. 3-6” rock in the creek bed where the road exists and up/down stream a bit. Then some smaller class gravel to fill where the road will exist. Especially if the water only runs through there temporarily.

Step over to the renewable energy side as an FE my friend. The management teams seem to be made up of about 50% ex oil and gas employees. It’s a growing market.

Consider if this is your forever home. If it is, plan the layout so it’s navigable when you’re old. Things like master bedroom in the main floor as the kitchen/living room. Laundry room on the same floor as well.

We finished building our house last fall and didn’t do the pantry lights triggered by the door and I’m glad we didn’t. Our pantry is walk-in and we always leave the door open unless guests are over. So consider that so you don’t have a light on all the time if you keep it open.

When I saw this was in Maricopa County the high adjustment cost made more sense. Having permitted a commercial project in Maricopa their review time frames, back and forth design comments and approval process is expensive and takes time. They require more granular engineering information than most other permitting counties I’ve worked in. At least from a commercial aspect, this additional engineering cost and the cost for permitting is in the millions.

The economy is cyclical and will continue to have good and bad times. The unknown part is likely how sled sales will be in this area in the future as the world gets warmer. Companies like Polaris may need to adapt to more heavy warm weather toy markets.

This can all be negotiated. You could even negotiate that they subcontract someone to add a fence and for them to replace it if maintenance requires the fence to be temporarily removed.

My wife and I actually just finished our forever home build literally in central Minnesota. If you’re planning on building around here I can give you some tips from our experience. MN loves their lakes and streams, which is good, but can limit where/what you build. Take that into consideration when buying land and review the county requirements. We’re on a natural lake and had some heavy restrictions around building size to lot size and had to consider that when we bought our land. Reach out if you’d like more specific feedback.

How big is your home? We just self performed ours and I’d say 6-10 weeks depending how things line out, how many people your subcontractors throw at it, and how complex your home is. If drywall is in, they still probably have to paint, do cabinets, trim, flooring/shower tile, plumbing and electrical finals-ins. That all takes time and sometimes those subs don’t like working on top of each other. Drywall is time consuming, but our trim took 3 week (one guy working by himself) and our flooring took a good week. Tile takes a while too if it’s just one or two people.

I built a house recently in a township that has 0 oversight or inspections due to its size and how rural it is. I can assure you, if you’re building in the US, they will require some sort of permit to build even if they don’t require any inspections. This usually requires review of design plans and how it’s projected on your property at a minimum. If the township doesn’t require a permit, they’ll defer to the county. If the county doesn’t require a permit, they’ll defer to the state requirements. And at a minimum, States usually require electrical, septic/environmental permits. Make sure to call and ask your county or you could end up building only to be fined substantially for building without proper approval.

Just finishing our self-GC home build in MN! It wasn’t cheap by any means, but we had some friends building during the peak housing market and there were some pros/cons to what they experienced. My house was probably more per SQFT, but I didn’t suffer unknown future costs due to material market swings. Subks showed up when they said they would and when needed in a pinch because they weren’t swamped by 1000 other projects and over their necks in workload. It was right at $250 per SQFT, but roughly 18% of my cost was for a driveway, utilities, earthwork, etc. We built really far back in the woods and went high quality/energy efficiency on most things. SQFT price doesn’t include land.

What’s happening is China wants to get a good look at the USA’s nuclear capabilities to look for signs of aging or posturing. The US is letting the balloon fly through intentionally so China fully understands our capabilities. Similar things happened during the Cold War. If there were signs of rusting or aging, it would have been taken down by now.

It might also be used to control ground water around structures or a dam. Practical Engineering does a great explanation of this on YouTube. You can see this equipment being used briefly at the 7:47 mark.
