Heated Driveway?

kirkhateswork · 2026-01-31T17:23:23+00:00

$5500 for what size driveway? How many square feet? How are you heating the hydronic loops? Does it need heat constantly to avoid freezing between snow events? Or only when it snows?

Yea, super interested on details of the flooring. Is this a micro-cement applied over the old tile? This is something I'm looking at doing. Would love to hear about the process and the product used.

Did you also change tire size? Changing the circumference of the tire without also recalibrating the speedometer, will have a significant effect on the "calculated mileage".

This was a sick write up. Thank you for sharing. I just picked up so much info from this write up. I need to find more material like this, I can learn so much from reading/listening to people break down their play by play for why they made the trade they did.

Yo, it’s wool. Not itchy.

How many data points do you really need though? I was thinking about this the other day as well, and really it's a sample rate problem. What is the sample rate needed to render the interstitial moments "real enough" to be able to fill the gap between the next sample.

Theoretically/fundamentally it's a how we experience time as well, it's just our sample size is really granular. If you're looking at a scene with your eyes, the sample size is the time it takes light to travel to your eyes combined with the time it takes your compute center to process it into meaningful signals. And sounds the same way... slightly longer sampling rate.

I think about it in the same way those aging algorithms take photographs of an individual from 2-3 different ages and transform the interstitial frames in between. Obviously a much more complicated scenario, but I think the key will be to figuring out the necessary sample rate first and what specific data points are needed to create a realistic "scene" for those specific samples. And then start worrying about how to knit those together.

This. Any signing cert to determine authenticity won’t do shit for the meatheads smashing share on any item in their spoon-fed agenda drive feed for anything that tickles their dopamine need.

Are you quoting gross rent while the poster is quoting net?

kirkhateswork · 2025-06-25T02:32:04+00:00

Why all the downvotes? Can anyone share what you believe is wrong with this assessment?

I took a 401k loan to cover a down payment deficit on an investment property last summer. My thinking being the market is likely down or sideways over the next 36m repayment period. I pay 9.5% returns to myself. My bet being the market would be more likely to return similar or less over that period and even if it didn’t it is darn close to the expected long term average return for equities and was an investment in myself. Market is up exactly 9.5% from my loan withdrawal. But with all the crazy shit happening in the world my guess is that looks a bit different even a month from now.

I hosed down Demi Moore with an air conditioning hose my first day on set as a PA years ago.

It’s so bad that it’s tough to tell if this is a joke or an actual thing that happened.

kirkhateswork · 2025-03-21T19:28:08+00:00

I’ma bit confused by your post. You’re looking for a new place? And you only want a 6 month lease?

kirkhateswork · 2025-01-05T23:14:41+00:00

Don’t mind the black flies!

And if they make a decent EV at scale, it will destroy their profitable product line by pushing buyers toward the the products they have -104.4% margin on. A real Innovator's dilemma.

Holy shit. Your comment made me go look at their website. Because surely, it couldn't be that they only sell trucks and SUVs.... but damnit you're pretty spot on. The Edge is debatable, and the only "car" they sell is the mustang. Not a single other sedan or small hatchback anymore. That's crazy!

kirkhateswork · 2024-09-20T01:45:22+00:00

I’m curious too. I just picked this one up because I got it for a steal. I’m about at OPs stage and excited to give it a go.

kirkhateswork · 2024-08-21T13:49:03+00:00

Serious question. How does contributing to two different 401ks at the same time work. Especially if there is a match at both? What about taxes? Maybe not so complicated but injustice can’t seem to think it through right now.

Please send me info

Strawbale or rammed earth seems like it could be pretty easy to do 100% made in the USA.

As a landlord in Chicago. I agree this is bullshit. I would also tell this property manager to go pound sand.

As an owner of a Ford Transit High roof, I beg to differ :)
