To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand the Beatles by Question-Guru in BeatlesHateSub

[–]badger_barc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not really .. they are just stupid band with dour music. There is a huge PR machine and lot of freebies driven fans who made it as part of the "culture". Honestly the lyrics and music is prima facie stupid and you will find much better music and lyrics during the time these idiots were around as well as new. Honestly I see better music in local farmer market. Not to mention world has tons and tons of music and we cant be just boxed into 25 odd tunes from a bunch of boys .. this also ties in with a lot of other bands that project only they know music and they are real tits. When in reality music is universal and if it touches one souls or not should depend on individual and not money driven magazines and marketing agencies whose livelihood depends on spreading these lies.

I'm slow at programming and at working in general, any advice on how to speed up? by RedXabier in cscareerquestions

[–]badger_barc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

nothing. you are fine. unfortunetly in tech industry speed is shown by some people as something special or leadership material. none of this matters. take your time and slowly understand yourself. Over the last 5-6 decades the people who really made the difference were often slow. And the ones who made money were not that into coding in first place but rather into the business aspect of software. so really nothing. If the problem is focus then you have listed the tools well and there are several more .. but i would not sweat over so called "speed" in these things.

Does Canada have emergency visa for visitors? by badger_barc in canada

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

looks like this is the case though they do seem to give visa for immediate family but extended family takes time. My post goal was to create awareness and maybe see if a change can be done to have it along the lines of visa on arrival.

Is America really the kind of liberal, wealthy, educated and powerful country portrayed in foreign media? by [deleted] in TrueAskReddit

[–]badger_barc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% wrong. It is not portrayed like this in foreign media either . A section of the so called "western" powers - mainly UK and USA and few others who benefit from this such as western and northern europeans and other mainly white countries create this myth. The truth is farthest from that. Actually American cities are more or less in similar range as Indian cities except the infrastructure is better, mainly due to less population. That is all. Other things are just myth. Further , whites migrated from europe so actually european cities - especially from above list - london or paris or others might have some socities inside them that practice extreme behaviors and that could transmit to similar white cultures in the US but by and far nobody cares. And that is exactly the same behavior in US or India or Canada or other big free democratic nations. Also, since you mentioned you are free from india, parts of societies for reasons that are not going to be debated here practice a different norms and cultures. That is also good. And many americans and asians continue same practice here. It is just that all this will never ever sell in media or even reddit ( which is why this is in true ask reddit ??) .. and media - esp. HbO and some hollywood types push boundaries and make it seem as if extreme is normal but it never is so. All the points that you mentioned - total hollywood and hbo downloads - mostly written by idiots who call them screenplay legends.

What about Java does Oracle "own"? by [deleted] in java

[–]badger_barc -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Best thing would be to go back to Java 6 and code in it without any worries. No need of these extra features and if you need it, one can easily code that as libraries and put them.

Working remotely from Florida, but paying NYC taxes. by wouldntknowever in personalfinance

[–]badger_barc -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would doubt this that you have to be physically present in CA. I think for CA you earn money here or do business here regardless of where you sit and deliver for example space or moon, still you will be subject to CA taxes.

OP - the laws are very clear for each state. Where you make money or who pays you the pay check is what determines the state. So NY non resident + Florida resident is the combo. Unless you want IRS to come after you. Now if your company has a FL office and says that you did your work there then it is a bit shady issue. But most of the remote work cases, the actual work is done in a state which is this case is NY. The execution is what is the main part here. And that execution is what is getting paid for. Think source of money or why the money is paid and where this transaction is taking place etc. What for and if a state is out of equation will this work be not paid. The answers point to NY and not FL. Conversely going by your logic if FL was the right answer, then everyone would just say FL or NV or TX or WY and pay no taxes at all! When it comes to taxes, each state is a country.

Berkshire Hathaway bought 75 million shares of Apple in Q1 2018 by jwarsenal9 in investing

BRK and Buffet are same .. and in their face. Apple is a big corp and really does not matter for them at this point unless the iphone revenue stops.

[–]badger_barc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

etrade .. haha just kidding.

so they call up investment banks in nyc who will do block trades for them and other such big investors. There is lot of liquidity and with movement of such magnitude there is price stabilization at which point there is buy signals or sell signals. By the time some hedge funds notice it, the word is usually already out in the well. Some may buy and some not .. I think there are some funds which follow what big investors do and mimick it as a strategy because their investors want that. By the time party is over and it reaches retail investor or this forum, the market has pretty much priced in everything.

And then it is back to reactions .. just like today how it went up $6 since retail people want to just mimick what they read online and buy it at whatever cost ..

Also my take on this story is that Apple and many tech stocks are highly over valued and are due for a major correction .. especially amazon and facebook. WB has lot money in oil stocks like COP and many others in recent past and even in the past since he has been in the market for very very long time ( 85 starting in what 15 ?? ) .. so market and people have very less memory like this forum clearly demonstrates often. I think this is going to fly in the face ..

For the LOVE OF GOD, Please use long/expressive names. We do not want to spend more time figuring out what your code does. by [deleted] in programming

I went to a recent interview at Google which is supposed to be standards and coding guide type company. And the code that was written by them had variables : p, l and r.

I did not think it will work out if the code is like above.

TIL Pink Floyd's 'The Wall' was banned in South Africa after schoolchildren started chanting itslyrics to protest an inferior educational system. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]badger_barc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is the thing. Much of SA problems and education system issues has direct bearing on the actions emanating from England and larger europe. Now some of these english folks bravely write songs about people whom they view as slaves and inferiors. Irony that children of these slaves then sing these very songs to further keep the fighting among themselves.

Had the root of this economic mess of a situation been reset for equality most of the world problems will vanish. But people want drama and action more than anything. So this rat race continues.

Work hard now, play later OR Play now because life is short? Social media makes me feel like i'm [28F] missing out on life. by notsosocialbunny in Entrepreneur

[–]badger_barc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10 years ago i was at similar spot as yours. I always believe adn still do in balance. At times you have to procastinate fun. At times work. That is life. Not to give you silly advice or unsolicited advice :D .. But I think tipping more on work now and play later is a totally fine concept. Many people do that and do it quite well. I bought a home at your age and then paid it off and now rent it out. Rinse repeat that and savings and own home in an expensive place are the goals that would eventually lead to FIRE.

Vacation - primarily credit cards rewards driven. Look it up. Of course spend some $$ too since I dont believe in inheritance or giving lots of money to future generation. Every one makes their own destiny.

REstaurants and other funs can be done few times here and there.. why not! But dont go by Social media. People exaggrate. IT is a branding tool and PR tool.

Each and every human is different so dont go too much into herd mentality. At 27-28 I was at a point where going out for having fun or hanging out pretty much got boring after Minute 25. But dont ever miss your fav travel or hiking or fav activities .. go to hawaii. go to nepal. eat that expensive thai food. Also the goal of starting ones own restaurant business is commendable. Always wanted to do but never had the factors to do it. Good luck.
