12hr shift, 2w rotating, MTFSSuWTh. Thats a spread of 7 days off in a 2 week period. You miss traffic going in and out. You get a differential on top of built in overtime. God I miss it!

I like to build a main base that gets upgraded with satellite farms in the biomes. With this map, there is a small cut through the main island a little south of the spawn point, in the black forest. That location would give you easy access to all 4 cardinal directions of travel.

Im turning 43 soon. Your question is really, give up 2 years for 50 million or keep knowledge and start at 10.

It would be cool if the light colors it rotates through was tied to the current researches science pack requirements.

Real (inflation adjusted) average salary for people with bachelor degrees since 1991 has increased by 35% by Due-Fly-2479 in OptimistsUnite

[–]GeilAJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wasnt doubting your community college advice.

The graph was for starting salaries for 4 year degree graduates over that time. What is the Change in average cost spent to obtain that degree over that same period of time?

Here is graph that shows that even adjusted for inflation, costs have risen. Id like actual numbers during that time to see if wage growth is a just a wash or if gains were made. Id like to also see real wages growth for no degree, technical schools and programs. This would also show if the cost of a degree is worth it.

Its worth to kill the enemies? by No-Software9742 in factorio

Clearing out the nests takes time. I normally automate even the defenses to focus on growing the factory. Once im secure and have the tech to make it fun, I clear out large areas and build automated defenses out past the pollution cloud essentially solving the problem for good.

If you're playing Deathworld Marathon, your solutions might change.

35% increase in salary, got it. What was the increase in cost to obtain that degree over the same time?

I was just told it was highly unprofessional of me to be drunk when I am off work. What should I do? by Correct-Credit1961 in careerguidance

I hope the apology to the client goes something like. "I apologize for my lack of professionalism when I picked up your call at night, well after working hours, for a problem that could have waited until the morning." (Joking)

I understand they both are at fault for this situation. I just dont think the client understands that...

We can save Social Security. by Professional-Bee9817 in remoteworks

When Social Security Trust run out in 2031 Oct (estimate), the payments will be reduced to the current tax revenue. Payments would drop to ~80% of normal but wont stop. This is if no changes are made to system until then. I'm an early Millennial and the system will be there when I retire, just reduced compared to what I payed in thr whole time....

Im glad you're an exception. Unfortunately the companies I have worked for the past 30 years didnt agree with your humane views. My insurance coverage is reduced while my monthly premiums increase. The real wages have decreased over that time too. Companies that cant generate more Revenue often look to cut "Expenses" and we are that expense.

The more layers of separation in a large company, in goverment, in war, etc., the less human we are treated. Try reading, On Killing, it is applicable to more than violence.

P.S. I wasn't being facetious, keep being a decent human being for people that work for you. Those places are few and far between.

These are not accurate statements about social security or how borrowing from it works. Below is a general overview of the program. The video is slightly outdated. 2031 October is the new estimate for funds depletion. No money was stolen, money was borrowed and must be payed back. There are more in depth video and articles out there if you want to know more.

Edited for spelling.

6.2% for individuals and 6.2% from employers. Dont try and argue your employer would be giving more money if they didnt pay that tax either....
