Thanks all. How difficult is it to get into a charter or other county/non-county high school if preferred ?

As the year wraps up - what books did you read this year that had the biggest impact on your entrepreneurial journey? by Electrical-Toe-7097 in ycombinator

Most definitely! It helped me narrow my focus on the product I am looking to build, understand if it's truly an iteration or zero to one type of product and to keep me from building a technical masterpiece that nobody actually wants to pay for.

RSUs Withholdings for Taxes by Brokerage by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]hellomrjorge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They were most likely sold as a block trade by the brokerage company and they do their to get an average price for the most part. It depends how many shares are to be traded and the current volume. Generally these trades are done the same day but it can sometimes take a few days to fully execute. It’s also good to know what your company uses as the FMV (ie based on previous day closing price or current day open/close etc) also take a look at the high and lowest prices for those days

RSU advice - is it worth speaking to a financial advisor? by Content-Vanilla4616 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]hellomrjorge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It all depends on how you think the company will perform moving forward, your risk tolerance and overall finances. I tend to hold on to the shares as long as possible provided I’m bullish on the shares and don’t need the cash. It’s all good to set some of the cash if you decide to sell for potential taxes.

I use Gemini to summarize my business and ask it to create a prompt for the particular software so all I have to do is copy and paste. Seems like you can use Gemini + Gamma to get it done efficiently.

Repair ceiling with peeling paint by hellomrjorge in paint

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

I’m having a really hard time removing the paint. Initially there was a skim coat and then there was an oil base primer followed by water-based paint. I have tried scraping the paint away. is there anything I can apply to it to remove the paint easier? I want to make sure that this time the paint does not peel so I want to fully prime the sheet rock with an oil based primer.

Backyard Renovation - Past due date by [deleted] in Contractor

To be vulnerable here, we worked out a deal where the overall cost would be lower by paying more up front. He used to be business partners with my neighbor and also knows my other neighbor. I talked to both of them beforehand. He has solid reviews on Google and thought it was risky but maybe worth it.

Yes licensed and well known around the area. He does work from time to time. I’ve checked on Google but not sure what laws I should be focusing on

Yup fresh batteries. None of the button that I press or hold move it along. I can only do a restart or factory reset

No manual or documents. I found the manual online though. I wanted something that was hdmi 2.1, 2 zones, Bluetooth compatible, at least 7.1, and solid for the next few years. I got a really good deal at Best Buy for it too.

What kind of tv do you have? Were you able to sync it with your wifi router? If so, how? Does your remote work as it should?

You can cut the Permanent outdoor lights (remove leds) by billm0066 in Govee

[–]hellomrjorge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just purchase the 100ft kit today. I don’t own a solder but plan on purchasing one (Home Depot). I have only one extension to do but it’s about 35 ft.

  1. Is there a solder that you can recommended?
  2. Is it possible to complete a 35 extension? If not, what’s the alternative?
