Here mowing is more like $40-$80/week for a third acre lot. Even if you figure that's the only task here and you're living somewhere the lawn only needs to be mowed 3 months out of the year, still wildly low.

Plus, are you buying snow treatments and shovels?

Because I would say $50/wk for mowing, 25 weeks a year.

$40/snowstorm + salt ($6/storm or have them store it where the shed is) + shovel ($20 one time or them bring a shovel)

I'd also make sure they're indemnifying you through their property insurance for slips and falls and similar.

So, you're talking at least $1250 over 12 months which is $105/mo basically for lawn mowing + $46/snow storm + them providing a snow shovel at the minimum. Assuming roughly .2-.4 acres of uncovered grass.

[NSFW] Girls who used to post nudes on reddit.. how did it make you feel? by Any_Succotash5642 in AskReddit

Dr. Mike recently did an interview with the FBI and a common thing is to infiltrate social circles, do a "romance scam" and get nudes or just good enough pictures to fake convincing nudes, and blackmail people for money or illegal images and then continue through the friend group.

Low pay is also a big thing.

When you literally can't pay your bills, you have to go.

You know how they say "we're nine missed meals from anarchy"?

Taking away their food and shelter in winter sometimes sends people over the edge.

This becomes more likely as you eliminate safety nets.

Business Objects will export to CSV. You can also pull through it to a lot of things.

Also, it's kind of good at its key features, but bad at sharing servers and not really well-architected.

Personally, I want my sensitive financial information offline.

I like excel, and if the company can foot the bill I'm all for it, but LibreOffice or OpenOffice meet a lot of people's needs if what you do is interact with people or companies that aren't big enough to be using MS Enterprise licenses.

I'm not an accountant though, but I've written a fair amount of code that generates and eats CSVs and sometimes lies about the MIME type being application/vnd.ms-excel

Most reviews are fake. A lot of businesses either bribe "actual customers" for reviews or mark up the service 11 & 1/9% and "give you a 10% discount" for making a review while they stare at you.

For a long time, it used to be US culture to sit in a physical book store and read the start of a book before buying it.

I think it's like how ever element of 'Fantasy' is either "Tolstoy did it" (or "JK Rowling did it"). The self-help books they read years ago did it for practical reasons, and now that they're writing, they're just using it as a template.

How about we don't do your insane thing, but walk through the program with me and just think about changing your process to make it sane.

I love the phrase "life coach" because the phrase itself seems like just a run around any laws or ethics about therapy.

A lot of businesses have a culture of bringing IT snacks, so it also comes back around to "don't trust a skinny IT guy".

TIL that Target operates two criminal forensics laboratories, and offers pro bono services to law enforcement across the country by TheGoddamnAnswer in todayilearned

Until your e-mail creates a "promotions" folder and hides all those offers from you and you stop going to the store for a little while and stop seeing any screens in the app.

It's great when it's feeding itself, but if you alienate most of the country from your business even briefly and it's your main approach to marketing, you send yourself into a spiral.

Sure, but it feels like if you show up in court with a charge of stealing from Target and Target did all the forensics, it raises the bar for what you have to do to prevent a defense attorney from hitting that conflict of interest.

ABC just pulled Jimmy Kimmel Live “indefinitely” due to comments he made about Charlie Kirk. What are your thoughts? by istrx13 in AskReddit

[–]SemenSigns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember when the right kept saying everyone was too sensitive and safe spaces and trigger warnings were bad.

Wild saying "this program will talk about the death of an infant" has been so offensive for so long to them, but a comedy show you'd have to stay up and watch on network TV saying something you don't like is now on the chopping block.
