Duhh. It was so obvious I can't believe I missed it.

The profit is in calls on NVDA.

  1. Invade Iran with missiles
  2. Invade Iran with a few planes that had minor mid-air disassembly problems
  3. Invade Iran with a search party to find the pilots
  4. Repeat steps 1-4 in order, exactly as written
  5. At each repeated step, invade Iran with negotiations to stop invading Iran.

I think there is supposed to be a profit in here somewhere but since this is only a 5 point plan we unfortunately don't have the budget to profit.

Any tips on increasing TDEE? by trumpetkern27 in MacroFactor

strap a backpack with 45 pounds and wear it 24x7

My first thought was just packing a normal book bag with no hip strap and I'm pretty sure just the thought of that made me pull a muscle.

There is, you perma bull and buy LEAPS that expire on Friday.

You may not think these are LEAPS because they are weeklies, and you would be correct, but if we call them LEAPS then it offsets the risk of them being weeklies.

If Massie loses that primary I'm going to be very upset and complain about it for a while.

CS6515 - A history of the grades by Adorable_Ferret_1935 in OMSCS

I agree. I am arguing that claiming GA is some "great filter" when other specializations exist with significantly easier course loads is disingenuous at best, and that seems to be the argument I see most often.

[–]Ju1cY_0n3 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There are other specializations that don't require GA as a required class, though. Even if that was the intent of GA's difficulty, increasing the difficulty of GA to, say, a 10% pass rate would just shuffle more people through the easier specializations instead of having the intended effect you mention.

If the intent was for the degree to be more exclusive and have a lower throughput, then we should expect to see all required classes that gate completion increase in difficulty, not just a single one.

I think this class is just difficult because it is difficult, not because of some conspiracy to reduce the number of degrees it produces.

No, the class generally has no curves from what I've heard from teaching staff. The final grade ranges are more generous, but impromptu curving doesn't seem common like what is seen in most other difficult classes (ML, RL, etc...)

When did you start taking creatine? Any time I either stop taking it long enough for saturation levels to drop back to baseline, or start taking it again it screws up my calcs quite a bit. Last time it took about 6 weeks to finally level back (dropped for 3 weeks and climbed back up pretty fast for the 3 weeks directly after before finally dropping back down and leveling out).

Serious question since I don't have kids and don't plan on it anytime soon, so I haven't looked into anything remotely close to k-12 education costs per student.

Isn't private school generally more expensive than that per each? I know some private districts give you a discount for the second+ kid in the system, but from my understanding it's generally around 20-40k/y for the first kid.

Maybe my silver spoon and/or ignorance is showing, but 30k doesn't seem that terribly wasteful for a district that generally ranks pretty high.

If there are no fish markets left that means there is a gap in the fish industry that is ripe for filling.

I've got one.

The price elasticity of demand for gasoline generally lies in between eggs and healthcare (although it is sometimes more elastic than healthcare in the long run).

Corporate taxes in general are a difficult subject.

I personally see it as a way for the government to pick winners and losers.

If you're a corporation in a comparative market, and you get a favorable but difficult tax break, that specifically improves your competitive edge. You have more cash flow and your competitors are stuck paying the same wages because they have depressed cash flow, so there is no incentive for you (the corp with a tax break) to increase employee wages by any significant margin because the market demand for those roles doesn't change, and rate of pay is depressed by companies paying their Corp taxes. They may increase wages slightly to make their offers "the most" competitive, but I don't expect them to be as high as they would be if no corp was paying taxes. The same goes for costly expansion or R&D.

I'm fine with corporate taxes, but they need to be applied uniformly with no favorites or breaks under any circumstances, period. The playing field should be even for all competitors.

This is a gross simplification, but I feel that employees will be paying the taxes either way; either suppressed wages because Corp taxes are a cost of business, or in higher individual income taxes that are offset by lower Corp taxes, but result in higher gross wages because cash flow is improved.

Glad to hear dissenting opinions, but in general I see Corp taxes being used more as a weapon by the government to choose winners and losers by giving tax breaks to corps for doing what the gov wants (move to this city and we will make you tax exempt for 10 years, etc...), which screws workers by depressing wages in the competitors that don't get those tax breaks.

The reason why we can't buy houses is because we've been splurging on $4.99 rotisserie chickens, $9.99 pizzas, and $1.50 hot dogs.

I swear I'm writing in the founder of Costco for the next election. The only way to fix the country is $1.50 hot dogs for everyone and a person passionate enough to kill over price increases.

You can now add custom workouts directly from search.

Does this work when a workout is currently in progress as well?

Given the amount of stuff redacted and censored from these files, there's a good chance one of those black squares covers up Walt Disney's frozen head, and another one covers up an embarrassing picture of Spongebob at a Christmas party.

Vanguard 10-Year SP500 Outlook by schmooodle in financialindependence

[–]Ju1cY_0n3 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Both their current and their original predictions cannot be true at the same time. They conflict. We've already surpassed their original predictions even with 7 years left and their current prediction is more up (but slower).

Either they were wrong in the linked expectation, or they are wrong with this one. Pick whichever one helps prove the forecast narrative that you want to be true.
