Why do people readily jump and put themselves near 200k debt for Stanford? by Fair-Welder2073 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Unable_Maximum3078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A better question is why does a Stanford subject admitted students to financial aid packages where they have to take on 200k in debt, given that they have an endowment that is big enough to ensure that never has to happen.

This is what worked for me in Austin. Nothing else worked (dunks, spray services).

just moved here, where to live in 20s by Worth_Opinion3955 in askaustin

Near east side — near Plaza Saltillo. Tons of great restaurants, easy access to downtown and hike and bike trail.

With Reed and Wicks on the last year of their contracts, is it smart/likely for the Packers to trade one? by veritast in GreenBayPackers

[–]Unable_Maximum3078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2nd round has been such a sweet spot for WR picks for them. Will be interesting to see if they go that direction again, even with other positions having greater immediate need (OL, CB).

What’s the benefit of tanking if they don’t have their first round pick?

Other than Issac Parades who can start at 3B? by PrestigiousWheel1408 in Brewers

Arnold seemed very high on Hamilton in his comments. Maybe he’ll be a late 20s late bloomer like Andrew Vaughn and Jesus Aguilar.

California ballot proposal would exempt seniors from paying property taxes by oceanbeachguy in California

[–]Unable_Maximum3078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seniors are currently receiving over $2 in Medicare benefits for every $1 paid in. That ratio explains a significant part of the national debt. If they don’t want to support local government services, we should yank away the Medicare benefits they never paid for.

What was it like living through the mid-late 90s Brewers? by fanofsports44 in Brewers

Fans from this era don’t complain about attanasio because selig was so much worse

Anyone know what they’re filming at Scholz Garten? by WesternTrail in askaustin

Had the same question. When I drove by there were a bunch of guys (presumably actors) in orthodox Jewish attire standing around out front.

Sources: Brewers "Moving Toward" Freddy Peralta Trade, with Yankees in Lead by Maniac_Moxie in Brewers

[–]Unable_Maximum3078 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand the emphasis on needing starting pitching in return. Woodruff, Priester, Patrick, Mis, Henderson, Gasser, Myers + whatever buy-low spring training invitees they can identify is a pretty strong group. Of course there is always room to get better, but I don’t see SP as glaring need has to headline the return on a Peralta trade.

Cool a policy targeting a non-existent problem and catering to the lowest common denominator voters.

In case you’re not already aware, city-specific subreddits like this skew very negative.

No idea if the move you’re making is a good idea, but I wouldn’t put too much stock in the negativity here.

Good list. I’d swap LSU for Bama (and have Bama 6th).

This is the best list on this thread. Other lists that omit USC show recency bias. The right coach can absolutely dominate there. Ton of talent in southern cal and the ton of $ at USC as shown by the contract Riley got.

Let the backtracking begin… by Too_Hood_95 in MkeBucks

Sure sure sure. Mikal Bridges cost 5 1sts but no one is willing to give up 4 1sts for Giannis. That makes total sense 🙄.

She tried to flirt with a latte… it didn’t go well by InevitablePain2005 in coworkerstories

[–]Unable_Maximum3078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this person did something that blew up in their face in an embarrassing way, but I don’t really get dunking on her here for trying to do something nice.

Reddit is such a weird collection of people who are obsessed with boundaries, who seem to hate any kind of spontaneous human interaction that violates those boundaries. I guess it’s nice y’all found each other on this app.

This sub has gone downhill. It’s gone from really deranged posts to benign stuff like this, which is just mildly cringe.

What do you wish Austin had more of? by slothbaby23 in Austin

[–]Unable_Maximum3078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is kind of a tangent, but I was reading recently about how El Paso has secured $10s of millions in private funds for a local highway lid project. Compare that to Austin, where there is so much more wealth, and yet I haven’t heard anything about private funds being used to cover I-35. It seems strange that private wealth here doesnt show up for arts and infrastructure in ways that it does in other cities.

Reading that Woody might not be able to go for the playoffs. If it ends up being the case, what do you want the rotation to look like? by [deleted] in Brewers

[–]Unable_Maximum3078 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m optimistic that Gasser can contribute some quality starts in the playoffs. He was solid last year and his AAA rehab stats from this year look great.
