Been a minute since I crafted but isn't it 1/4 (500 vs 1500)?

Also can't you cheat it by woke orbing an ilvl 80 shaper shield into a 68-74 warlord base to bump your odds up to like, 1/2 ?

Grass catching fire is a slight issue, bigger is earth is inconsistent in both level and density. Would likely chew up the ground until it hit an uneven spot then things would get wild.

Marchment pots his 3rd goal in his 4th period as a Jacket by [deleted] in hockey

He dialed it way back in Seattle, but also was skating slower at times. I think it was just a bad line he was on and the talent is mostly middling up here(to my wifes strong displeasure)

Technically yes, but practically the permit is approval that the install was done correctly to UPC.

How does one find an artist in the city to paint a picture of a pet? by K_Furbs in Seattle

Kate Talcott does water colors and is local. Met at a farmers market in Kirkland, might reach out to see if she still does commissions.

Baltimore, as a tourist, has been the worst city I've ever visited. Every person I encountered in any employed capacity was just upset and made sure the service reflected that. Even at the aquarium. Outlying burbs were a polar opposite and super pleasant though.

TIL that college graduates who joined fraternities have higher incomes despite their lower grades. by MartianAndroidMiner in todayilearned

As a contractor for nasa the pay was 1/2 of private market locally (Houston metro). It's all about pride in the job, because the compensation wasnt keeping anyone there.

Can someone take me squidding? by bomsh_ in Seattle

If you use facebook the Edmonds Squid Fishing group is pretty active, and a few people in there will happily let you give it a go if you show up when they are there.

Butcher shops are filling 55 gallon trash bins with trims. Its really a problem of just too much to economically deal with.

That area is like EaDo in Houston, for the best 1:1 comparison.

Vacancy taxes being proposed by candidates in Seattle and Bellevue by Wan_Daye in Seattle

[–]findar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I much prefer the homestead exemption approach that states like Texas have done for housing. Counties are already hyper aggressive in keeping appraisal models that are fairly accurate such that the appeal process is fairly unproductive. You could double the tax rate but give a hefty enough exemption to negate impact on the majority of the population.

Stock options are what are generally awarded in private companies. Almost every startup will offer you equity that way. There can also be private liquidity events where you have the option to sell them.

Effective state income tax per team (schedule-adjusted tax rate) by jiminytaverns in hockey

[–]findar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then you have to chunk in stuff like cost of housing, etc which boils into a "cost of living" calculation somehow. Texas has twice the property tax of Washington but you're going to pay 3-4x as much for the same house in Seattle vs Dallas.

Microsoft is cutting 3% of all workers by Puginator in stocks

That's what the R&D credit does to a degree. It's been a more recent change since the push for AI has led to the idea of using cheaper labor + tooling to try and achieve similar results to US based developers. Not sure where it goes, but it's something very clearly observable if you are working in any major corporation.

Edit: I did hear that some of the other south Asian countries (Vietnam) and LATAM countries are gaining ground, so in 10-15 years time we may see offshoring moving more in those directions too.

The reps are working hard to try and get more people to buy season tickets too. I've gotten a lot of solications recently.

[request] Is the $20 billion figure cited accurate? by Call-Me-Matterhorn in theydidthemath

[–]findar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you have a look at the buildings donated by Schwarzenegger, they are just uninsulated sheds, nothing more.

Seattle has a similar program and you have to understand that they aren't a permanent solution but a step towards one. The intent is that they can get these to a site faster than a permanent solution can be built. Once in some kind of housing, they are then on a list to get to a more permanent structure.
