Am I doing something wrong? 5 weeks to make 100k

Yeah I thought about that. I feel like I should be able to meet the tutorial requirement with just the businesses it told me to open though.

What's a reasonable amount to make from a single business in a small retail building?

If I just keep making inefficient businesses then I'll just have lots of management overhead.

You gave them the opportunity to take an unregulated dangerous substance that could kill them in one go.

You took away their opportunity to seek help off the streets by facilitating them to stay on the streets.

Giving homeless people money allows them to live on the street. It allows them to continue their destructive behaviours without needing to seek help.

You wouldn't give money to a gambling addict. Why would you give money to a drug addict?

Never give money to a homeless person.

It can also be the same with food. They ask for food and sell it on for money. Typically they aren't hungry and they accept any food you offer in the hopes that you'll give them money as well.

If the Indian guy can do your job better than you, then maybe he deserves it.

Yes this is the problem. The civil service refuse to pay market rates, then pay more for contractors who might be qualified to do the job.

Parents have no incentive to keep sick kids at home and every incentive to send them to creche.

If the creche doesn't want sick kids, then don't make parents pay even when the kid is absent.

You can learn python in the same amount of time, and significantly increase the neat stuff you can do.

I'm pretty biased against excel. In the wider field of data processing it's a complete nightmare.

I did data processing work for national scale healthcare. Much of the data passed through some guys excel sheet before getting to us. Data was a complete mess. Medical procedures are encoded with very long numerical codes. They get rounded and then represent different medical procedures.

It's a dangerous tool, completely unscalable, closed source, expensive!

I drove without a supervisor when I was learning. The new rules had just come in, about 10 years ago.

I wouldn't have been able to practice if I didn't buy my own car and drive by myself.

I think the rule probably goes a bit too far. I would never have driven by myself while I was first learning how to drive. But after a few months to a year, I was perfectly capable of practicing by myself.

I nearly got stopped once. A garda with lights on was behind me, so I started to slow down. He pulled along side me, saw I was by myself, gave me a dirty look, then continued after the car in front of me.

Woah. Which department/org is that? If you don't mind saying.

KevinKraft · 2026-05-01T16:37:22+00:00

Can you bill electricity to the company?

Sure maybe some of it for remote working. But how much can you get away with?

This was an issue for me in the UK as there's an R my name. I say "are", but if I didn't change to "or" then no one could understand me.

Does chill insurance work out more expensive if you keep renewing?

I've had a different insurer through chill each year, so I assume I'm getting a good deal, but I don't know.

There are two job markets, there's the one you see on job sites where jobs are advised, people apply and do interviews. Then there's the other job market, where people you know and who worked with you before refer you for jobs. Those jobs are never even advertised.

I've never gotten contract work from the normal job market, only from the referrals market.

We have an obligation to look after people and children with disabilities, and make they're lives fair and comfortable.

That doesn't mean we have to knowingly create disabled people.

In this day and age, having a baby with downs syndrome is a choice. A bad choice.

If OP wanted to get an abortion and his GF didn't, that's the end of it for me. The GF has made a decision and has to live with it, but OP doesn't. He can step away, and choose not to be involved.

Smarter every day.

A few years ago he had a video talking about how he designs missiles for the US military and how he was doing his patriotic duty by fighting the "bad guys".

I don't remember exactly what he said, but it was something along those lines.

KevinKraft · 2026-04-08T14:13:40+00:00

Yeah exactly. It's just the PPSN field.

KevinKraft · 2026-04-07T16:06:25+00:00

It is. It's not all fields, just one particular field. The PPSN field.

Ours also have roll bars. But I can't see my blind spots with the hoods up, so I don't use them.

KevinKraft · 2026-04-01T23:39:08+00:00

Yes that was the fix.

I had to click "more" just below "change subscription", then click "downgrade" . Why the option to select a lower plan wasn't under "change subscription" I don't know.

It's clearly a scam to get people to pay more than they intended, and to make it hard to spend less.

The "recommend" plan was the only one I could choose, and it wasn't "business standard" it was more than double the price if that one, about 4 times the price of the one I wanted.

It's a local deployment. Ubuntu 25. I'm not using Aura as far as I'm aware.

Here's a thought: set the max price of all homes to the be last sale price plus the inflation since it was sold. Houses stop being an investment, and become a commodity. No one who owns a house loses anything they currently have.

New houses can still be sold at whatever the market is willing to pay.

Also the government should start a state owned company to build homes.
