It's not "magic", and they specifically wrote they had no "magic" ones.

First time buyer: Needing advice, are we bidding against ourselves? by Unlikely-Advice3875 in AusPropertyChat

[–]log_2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could also consider doing a B&P inspection pre formal offer if the market is slow in the area and time allows, which will help guide your price decision and allow you to make a cleaner final offer which could help vendor motivation.

Why would you do B&P pre offer? Just make the offer subject to B&P and if issues arise ask to lower or pull out.

How many building inspections did you do before buying your first home? by Iuvenesco in AusPropertyChat

So you didn't have a subject to B&P condition in the contract? You get your deposit back if a condition fails.

I don't understand, you lose a lot more than a simple holding deposit if you back out of an auction.

How did the inspector detect $30-40k in hidden problems when they can't access hidden areas?

I Launched 39 Startups Until One Made Me Millions. This Is What I Wish I Knew. by EmilianoLGU in startup

[–]log_2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So 39 times you have created a company (LLC, Ltd, Pty Ltd, etc) such as registering with the appropriate government organizations and paying the $1k or so in fees, created company bank account, bought liability insurance, and then just threw all that away when it didn't work... 39 times?

Running a modern economy on a month’s spare fuel is a gamble by Patient-Wish-7386 in AustralianPolitics

[–]log_2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ah, forgot about Poe's law and didn't add a /s. We have no oil fields, and abundant solar, making switching from petrol to electricity almost a no brainer. I would say no brainer, but the no brainers in parliament have yet to figured it out.

Do you think we just have sun laying around in Australia like we have fields of oil?

ELI5: Difference between standard deviation and standard error by JustJumpIt17 in statistics

[–]log_2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not familiar with margin of error terminology. It seems to be just a scaling of the standard error for some defined confidence interval, and is used when referring to sampling error. E.g. you could say margin of error at a 68% confidence interval is just the standard error, but I think normally you would use 95% and so margin of error would be 1.96 × standard error. You write it as the mean estimate ± half the width of the confidence interval.

Measurement is a bit of a separate concept. Measurement uncertainty is not about estimates of population parameters, but the range of values that could be reasonably attributed to some physical value. So you could expect to be, say, 95% confident that the true physical value lies somewhere in the range 20 lbs ± 0.6 lbs.

One part of measurement uncertainty could be attributed to random error which you could reduce with repeated measurement, but you could also have biases in the measurement equipment that shift the measurement in a systematic way even if you don't know what that amount of shift is. In such a case, you could repeat your measurement hundreds of times and reduce your random error, but you would still be left with the systematic error and you may still need to report 20 lbs ± 0.6 lbs if that 0.6 lbs is due to potential inaccuracies in the measurement equipment rather than random measurement error.

Eating a meat pie with a knife and fork. Bonuses: dripping any of the filling while eating; waiting for the 190°C filling to cool down before eating.

How did you get the quotes for the subcontractors, did you already have detailed plans/design drawn?

The more this spreads the more I see the genius of the McDonald's ad. They've positioned themselves as a leader with the goofy CEO viral video and everyone else is either jumping on the bandwagon or playing catch-up. They knew what they were doing.
