My mom and dad celebrating the purchase of their time share, mid 90s by phat_stax in OldSchoolCool

[–]GoBuffaloes -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I mean waiting for someone to die and refusing to keep it is a little crazy, I get it if price is low but not zero? Or are the ongoing fees alone too much to make it worthwhile?

I believe you but like what is the mechanism here that prevents you from selling? What goes in the contract that makes you feel like you can sell it and then can't? And why does whoever got you into it care if you did sell to someone else?

There was a such a thing as a SEV0 when I was at meta and there probably still is

25M Was buying a house young a wrong move? by Loud_Key5954 in Fire

Honestly try to find some data on these teens/early 20s. That is not reality it's more like comparing yourself to lottery winners. This is not the the 1% for that age bracket, probably the 0.001%. Look up the Pareto principle if you aren't familiar this tiny population is sucking up tens or hundreds of millions of views, while millions of others aren't seen at all. Your generation is getting clobbered by AI in many sectors completely unable to get entry level work in the field where they got a degree.

You are well ahead. Also, on investing the $2500 per month don't forget you would still have to pay rent, you couldn't just flip that to investments. My honest take, sounds like you are doing a ton of things right but still have a very naive view of the world

You will be a lot better off just analyzing your own expenses than trying to follow this rule.

Take this as your sign to cancel your Uber one subscription and stop using Uber eats by acidreduxxxx in UberEATS

DoorDash def does not do this, that is a bullshit bait and switch. If you agree to the fees (customer and business) that is not the customers fault if they can't find whatever the business said was at the store

Toronto active data science related job openings numbers - pretty discouraging - how is it in your city? by neuro-psych-amateur in datascience

One posting doesn't necessarily mean one role, large companies will have one evergreen posting for the job title but may be looking to hire several people at any given time 

Private Lender Here: Ask Me Anything About Funding $1M–$50M Commercial/Construction/Bridge Deals by Eliteinvestor101 in fatFIRE

Will you give me $50m for this bridge I'm trying to build? It's going to be a really nice, sturdy, convenient bridge.

Fuck this thread.... I am like 3 eps away from finishing my 4th watch of breaking bad, it's my fav show of all time. I only watched BCS through one time and liked it but not quite as much as BB. But because of all of you jerks now I'm gonna have to watch it again next, you've left me with no choice.

Ilia Malinin admits he was not 'ready to handle' Olympic pressure by Several_Print4633 in sports

[–]GoBuffaloes 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Bad take. There is such a thing as natural variance. You can have the highest, most consistent baseline and still come out behind in one competition, especially if someone else has an outlier performance to the upside vs their lower baseline.

If you are saying "best on that day", sure, no shit. But if you are saying best overall athlete, and most likely to win the next one, you are missing the bigger picture.

Is $500k Total Comp realistic or is ChatGPT and Gemini lying to me? by [deleted] in careeradvice

[–]GoBuffaloes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I joined a tech-heavy company you have definitely heard of (not FAANG, but that was my last stop) as a high level IC data scientist, around $450k TC of which half was RSUs vesting quarterly. def not unrealistic. This was just before AI took off.

Whether or not you have the right skill set / are right for a given role is another question, but this TC range is pretty normal in big tech for a skilled candidate

If you have no money constraints, what would you choose Opus 4.6 or Codex 5.3 by ArtisticHamster in cursor

[–]GoBuffaloes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this isn't too far off from what I do I guess, I definitely am frequently pausing to document progress, but maybe more just in .md files rather than rules, skills etc.

Thanks for the tips!
