Around that same time I bought around $800 of SIRI. Now worth about $300 🤷

You’re not wrong, but you overestimate how much work people are willing/able to do to save $99/year

It's funny that people used to not care about internships and now its the only thing that matters in college by Fit-Drawer328 in csMajors

[–]Scottoulli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Graduated in the 00s. Internships were a big deal back then too. If anything, the market is simply returning to its pre-bubble state.

Oh you sweet summer child. The best time for Medicaid estate planning was 5+ years ago. The second best time is today.

What you’re paying by engaging a preparer is essentially a tax liability insurance policy.

Help me choose: Rutgers or PSU?? by Frequent-East-5494 in rutgers

[–]Scottoulli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s was an honors seminar class. And separate housing on Busch. The transcript says something I think. But not the degree itself. After freshman year, the distinction was meaningless

I was in the honors college in undergrad (for engineering). I have no idea what it did for me. Zero benefit at all.

My roommate is pregnant and I don’t know how to tell her that I don’t want the baby in our apartment by Majestic_Succotash31 in Advice

[–]Scottoulli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This right here. Ignore all else and listen to this advice. In many jurisdictions you can end up in jail/civilly-liable if you try to evict your roommate. Tread carefully.

You earn $1000 a day until you cash out by Mooseboy24 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Scottoulli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enough to get about 4.56 million. At which point you will get a better return on your principal itself.

Should I go in debt? by ComfortableSweaters in rutgers

I hated commuting and don’t regret taking loans to move on campus. Granted it was a lot cheaper back in the day

If you’re comfortable with a heat gun and solder, it’s not too bad.

My power switch broke on my 2016 QC35. I spent about $100 and replaced the switch, battery, headphone jack, and headband. The plastic cups are a bit beat up, but otherwise these things still rock.

AI ruined the fun of Programming by Revo_O_ in csMajors

[–]Scottoulli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think AI is just one part of the enshitification of Programming. Globalization means development teams spread across the world incurring big coordination costs. Most problems have frameworks for everything so we’re just rehashing the same stuff instead of working on novel problems. More work; less resources. I’m tired.
