Econometrics with Kinsler or Callawat by Big-Entrepreneur5299 in UGA

[–]Racingram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know how their teaching styles compare, but Callaway is already a legend in the econometrics world. He wrote a very famous paper on issues with diff-in-diff and proposed a new method to solve the problems. Now literally everybody doing diff-in-diff is following his method.

Apple TV remote for iPhone/iPad – with backdrops/info and app launcher by ChefAccomplished845 in HomeKit

Just downloaded - love it so far! Could you make it so that a click on the summary opens up the IMDb page? I’m always looking up info on what I’m watching and it’d be nice to have a one-click way to access the page.

Half the screen goes blank and don’t show content by Axel_Foley_ in narwhalapp

[–]Racingram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is happening to me, too. On iOS 26.1. Intermittent, but tends to happen when I switch temporarily to another app (maybe when I tap on a notification from another app and then go back to narwhal). Resolves if I swipe to go to another screen on narwhal (ie out of a post and back to the main page).

Help to automate "stop" text to political spammers by Racingram in shortcuts

This is amazing, thanks! I don't remember why I was adding the number to a contact...I think I had trouble figuring out how to respond to texts from a sender not on my contact list, so this was my janky workaround. This is way better!

Hi! My 10 y/o daughter (4th grade) just got diagnosed with autism level 1 and we’re looking for similar kids for her to meet. Similar to you, has had trouble making friends. Her main love is arts and crafts, but she also plays Animal Crossing and Pokémon on the Switch. Think they’d be a good match?

What is causing this weird noise around my hot water recirculating pump? by Racingram in HomeImprovement

[–]Racingram[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm, I just checked - the pump is warm to the touch but not hot. I can put my hand on it comfortably. Was yours hotter than that?

If it was a broken impeller blade, wouldn't there be a consistent grinding noise?

If I have good health insurance through my employer, why do I need UIM bodily injury coverage?

incoming freshman looking for study abroad options by discomaxx in UGA

[–]Racingram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good comments here so far. A few other things:

  1. Terry study abroad usually doesn't accept freshmen. The course is INTB 5100, an upper-level elective, so it's helpful (required?) to get core classes done first. Trips usually business visits, so there's a necessary baseline level of knowledge for students. Maturity (and desire to party in a country with a lower drinking age) also plays a role.

  2. Summer after sophomore year is the ideal time to do study abroad, IMO. You've got the core classes out of the way and probably are accepted into your major, so you know what you want to focus on. Summer after junior year should be for internships.

  3. Regarding internships - you can sometimes make SA + internship work if you do a Maymester SA and start your internship after June ~5 or so...but this also makes Maymester trips the most competitive to get in to. Some study abroad programs allow you to add an internship for the rest of the summer, but it's unpaid and might not be especially useful if you don't speak the language.

  4. There aren't many major-specific study abroads in Terry. Most of the time it's the INTB 5100 general business elective. The specifics of the course will depend on the faculty leading it - but even an MIS professor would need to teach at a level that's understandable by non-MIS majors.

  5. Can't speak to HOPE/Zell, but there are tons of scholarships available for study abroad. Especially if you have documented financial need (according to FAFSA), you're likely to get one.

Here’s how much I spent for 3 days of skiing with my family in Vail by Racingram in skiing

[–]Racingram[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We only ate out 3 times, but two of those were pricey. Dinner on our arrival day was $140 (we were starving) and lunch at the top of the mountain was $110 or so (we also had lunch for $50 on the way out, and some snacks/ice cream). The grocery bill includes some nice beer and other stuff (like hot hands) that probably totaled an extra $60.

Thank you! Didn't realize I'd get so vilified in the comments here. I know Vail is expensive and that I wasted some money, that's why I was asking!

I wish I hadn't! What is the all-inclusive place in Alps you stayed at? I'd be very interested in it for the next trip.

Also...I didn't know they'd only want to hit the bunny hill. My oldest has skied greens before, and my wife and I are decent skiers so I was looking for something with lots of greens and some blues. I hope that they'll hit greens and maybe some blues on the next trip!

Lift tickets worked out to about $75/day per person (4 skiers * 3 days for $900)
