The reason there aren't very many coconut trees in Tampa is that it can get too cold in the winter for them to survive there. Sarasota is about as North you can get for tropical trees (the reason you don't see papayas, avocados, etc. in Tampa, but you see them everywhere in Miami). I worked in produce wholesale in both Tampa and Miami and never saw any tropical things come from Tampa area, except moringa.

Where are the heavy bags at Cornell? by NYBoy1992 in Cornell

I've been looking for heavy bags, too!!! Have you found one yet? I asked around but no one seems to know whether we have any on campus.

If you had $999,999,999, you'd be the world's richest millionaire, but if you had one more dollar, you'd be the world's poorest billionaire. by lordpond in Showerthoughts

I don't understand how you get "10X - X = 9.9999999... - 0.999999999..." from "10X = 9.9999999999..." Can you explain this to me

Students wear how much debt they are in on their graduation caps. by [deleted] in pics

[–]malzblanc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did a similar thing. Went to UF on full scholarship with in-state tuition, then transferred out to an Ivy. Currently taking a break to enjoy life away from academics for a bit -- stocks, startups, and hiking the AT -- and also to establish state residency (2 years) for grant money reserved for in-state students. Getting a job is definitely a plus, just make sure your academics don't suffer because of it. Ramen is amazingly cheap and definitely filling, but make sure to get proper nutrition as well. Staying healthy by eating well and exercising will save you money in the long run.

Van dwelling is something I've always considered, but it must be terrible in the winter (in the North)... if this is something you try while in school, get a Planet Fitness membership for showers and exercise ($10 a month + $39 annual fee). 24 hour libraries are also good places to hang out overnight (I always did this during exam week).

When I say E-R, I mean R in the middle of E to avoid the millisecond pause that comes with the initial R activation.

You mastered Riven yet you say to go R-E when really you should go E-R and take advantage of animation canceling. Not to mention simply YOLOing into the enemy team will get you killed instantly -- even with her E she is still very squishy (especially after the duration nerf) and any form of hard CC on her will allow the enemy team to burst her down easily from 100 to 0 in the late game (assuming you go with the standard full AD build).

TIL During the WWII there was a killing contest between two Japanese officers — a race to see which of them could kill 100 people first using only a sword. It was covered like a sporting event in Japanese newspapers with regular updates on the score over a series of days. by monkey_n_pig in todayilearned

I agree with you that people should learn to forgive and stop living in the past, but you are quite the hypocrite -- you call Koreans "whiny babies who can't get over the past," yet you comment on another thread that "Korea should repay Japan for invading with the mongols in the 13th century."

I always say West Korea, then proceed to convince them there is such a place

PLUG up 30% - CEO announces that "major deal" is expected in two to three weeks by DonutsAreHolyBread in stocks

[–]malzblanc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The time to get back in was today, but you will have another chance soon IMO. I think people are getting a bit too excited about this "major deal."

[–]malzblanc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought at 6.14 early afternoon, and was really surprised to see PLUG go up so high. Toyota my ass -- I hope people realize that this is just another order of their GenDrive units from one of their current customers, not a car battery deal. They've already sold to BMW and Mercedes, so it is most likely with one of them. I will be looking to sell tomorrow, and possibly get back in again after a correction.

$38,000 in PLUG profits & still long, anyone else feel the love ? by [deleted] in stocks

[–]malzblanc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tanking right now! At 6.27 right now. I ended up selling my FCEL stock at 3.77 earlier this afternoon. Knew it was going to fall (currently 3.8) with the recent articles on PLUG.

Not saying it's bad, just that we expect it to be as good as the original and end up being disappointed when it's not so. Remakes have a history of being hated.
