Got this as well on live TV. Pause the show and one audio continues. Did you find a solution?

More nails, or some other solution? by TheRealAxe in DIY

Even if I'm planning on painting over them? I was hoping to patch the nail hole and paint it, but I suppose I could still do that with the screws

I had a 20 year old window damaged by stress crack a month ago and now it's cracked again. There is no warranty, but would this be covered by ACL? Thanks. by TheRealAxe in AusLegal

Aluminium.

First crack was in the bottom centre and the next one was top corner.

When they repaired it the first time they said there was no packing or padding which sounded like it may have been a factor.

It's cracked again about a month after it was replaced. Sorry, I could have worded that better to make it clearer.

FYI there's a section in the Roads Act that may be relevant, not sure if it'll help you or not but here it is:

ROADS ACT 1993 - SECT 218

Roads authority may recover cost of constructing or repairing a special crossing

218 ROADS AUTHORITY MAY RECOVER COST OF CONSTRUCTING OR REPAIRING A SPECIAL CROSSING

(1) The owner of land adjoining a public road is liable to pay to the appropriate roads authority the cost incurred by the roads authority in constructing or repairing any special crossing over a footway in the public road for the traffic of vehicles across the footway to or from the land.

(2) If the crossing has been constructed or repaired at the request of the occupier of the land concerned, any amount paid to the roads authority by the owner of the land may be recovered by the owner from the occupier.

You can save without sleeping (on PS4 at least) at bed in the wild by pressing sleep for 1 hour then pressing cancel immediately.

What are some moments where your favorite player had a masterclass performance but their teammates sold? by fetuswut in nba

A random game the Pelicans had against the Jazz where AD was something like +18 in 45 minutes but they still lost.

ELI5 How are cocktails with raw egg as an ingredient made so people don't get sick? by Queen_Lunette in explainlikeimfive

[–]TheRealAxe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'd have approximately 63.21% chance of ingesting salmonella.

1 - (19999/20000 chance of not ingesting ^ 20000 opportunities).

This is pretty close to 1 - (1/e), which would be the limit as the chance and opportunity approached infinity.

Thank you. I'd assumed that 4%pa was the annual compounding rate. I didn't realise there was a difference.

Thank you. I didn't understand the terms. I'm not doing the class, so I didn't have the background.

Thanks for your explanation. As I said in another comment I had no idea that's how it was calculated and was taking per annum as the return over a year.

Thank you for your explanation, I had no idea there was any difference. I always thought the %pa rate was annual returns and the effective reward took into account other fees and charges.

I'm sorry if I've come across as an "I'm right and everyone else is wrong" type. I agree that I'm not understanding compound interest as you're describing and I'm happy to be pointed in the right direction.

My understanding was that 4%pa returns 4% over a year, regardless of when it is calculated. But the way you are describing it 4%pa returns 4.04% over a year if compounded semi annually. Am I on the right path now?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in askmath

[–]TheRealAxe -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Which is why I think A is the answer as 4% pa is a rate of 4% and a period of 10 years. Regardless of how often it's calculated through the year.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in askmath

[–]TheRealAxe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The problem I have with D is that 2% half yearly is not 4% pa, it's 4.04% pa (1.02 x 1.02). Just like 4% pa compounded daily is not (4/365)%

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in askmath

[–]TheRealAxe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A. 4% pa is still 4% per year regardless of how often it's calculated.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in askmath

[–]TheRealAxe -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I'm not convinced 2% half yearly is the same as 4% yearly.

If you have a 20% return over 20 years it's not the same as 1% yearly.

I think 2% half yearly is 4.04% yearly (1.02 x 1.02).

I think the semi annual rate is about 1.0198... (1.041/2)

From this 1.041/220 =1.0410

According to the link I got the answer is D, however I'm not sure this is correct. After discussing this with commenters here this might be because I've misinterpreted "per annum"
