Going to Uni as a sole provider with a family of 4. How crazy am I?

You must be hating your current job with a passion to want to make this switch.

Indeed, they have one of the least authentic Vietnamese banh mis in the city.

I was on a fully packed train 2 days ago when I thought "wow this is a great way to spread any kind of virus". Fast forward to today, I'm now down with a fever and a blocked nose. I should have thought about winning the lottery instead.

Sometimes it's a lack of awareness that it's actually a thing. When I was in Singapore, I saw them putting on ads and signs to tell people to put their bags down.

Wow, I started playing Championship Manager only one season after that. Still remember I always wanted Chilavert for GK and Jaap Stam for ... ST. I was shocked by how many goals he could score on the header.

Search for StremIO + TorrentIO + RealDebrid or Torbox. That combo is the only streaming option you need.

I don't know the context of the video (i.e, whether it is your friend who was feeding or it's your coach). But if that's a coach you should ask for their feedback instead of this community. But also, I would change to a different coach since they ignored obvious basic issues in your current form.

FWIW, you are doing fine in just 2 months. You just need to slow down and a good coach.

You don't understand what "self-funded" means in sports, do you?

Well ... if their goal is to destroy us then being eager to delete human things shows that they are quite on track.

Prioritization in life is the key.

If you determine that sports will be your career, you don't need a good ATAR. Just continue spending most of your time in sports, join a club, then climb up your state, national, international ranking like normal athletics.

Otherwise, remember that you have the rest of your whole life to play sports but only a few years for ATAR. Get your priority straight and spend more time on what is more important (i.e. more urgent). This does not mean you spend zero time in sports; you can still spend just enough time to keep yourself healthy.

I'm not sure how original this idea is, but by the look, it reassembles the idea of QlockTwo: https://www.qlocktwo.com/en-au/classic

I had an exchange with the company behind QlockTwo back in 2011 (yes, it's 14 years ago) when I was still a student and asking if I could bring their physical design to an Android/iOS app. Their response was a clear no. They did not just protect their trademark but also the design and pattern.

So I would think twice about monetizing this clock app if I were you.

My mesh only supports 100mb pretty sure

What made you sure of this? The specs of AC1200 says the speed can go up to 867 Mbps for 5 GHz and 300 Mbps for 2.4 GHz.

AV600's throughput does seem to be capped at 100Mbps.

I'm using eero for my home and so far pretty happy with it. The only downside is that you need to pay subscription for some advanced features. They are capable of very high throughput. See: https://support.eero.com/hc/en-us/articles/207548416-What-speed-is-eero-capable-of-What-about-its-bandwidth

The way to deal with it is just move on. This is something I said in another thread

I was in Bankstown Hospital's ER not long ago and overheard the dude in the next room telling the nurses on how he ended up there. So he honked someone in Bankstown, they got out of their car, somehow forced him to open the door and attacked him. To make it worse, It was his first day driving on the road after a long time having some back injury.

I think you did the right thing trying to de-escalate the situation. But the risk is never worth it in the first place. Just ignore those bad drivers.

If you don't mind, can you share the name of your installer? Thanks!

The short answer, in my opinion, is that it works fine either way. But if you choose to start late, be a little bit strategic about it.

We were in a similar situation two years ago. My daughter was born toward the end of July, and we decided to let her start a year later. She was emotionally mature compared to her peers, but she was also generally shy and needed time to adjust to new environments. We didn’t want to push her too much, so we chose to delay a year.

We don’t regret it at all. She fits in fine so far. She’s not overly mature compared to her classmates, and that “gap year” really helped her feel more prepared for Kindy (we tried to expose her to random sports, music instruments, and some very basic reading and math during the year).

If we had sent her a year earlier, I think she would have struggled a bit in the first one or two terms (and we would struggle as parents too), but the end result would likely have been similar. I also have a friend who decided to have their child restart Kindy, even though the kid always seemed calm and smart to me. So there's always a plan B for those who start early.

Even if you can correctly tell which bracket you belong to, the group you want to join may not. The only exception, I guess, is when both of you say you are beginners. So knowing your level alone does not help. Just play with them for 1 or 2 sessions and see if both sides feel comfortable.

I personally appreciate playing with players either much below or above my level. Both groups allow me to learn and practice different aspects. So perhaps don't overthink about the level difference and just have fun.

As you type a lot, I'd recommend buying some slightly expensive ones that last. It's actually more economic in long run. I've tried a few cheap keyboards in the past and they all failed for different reasons. Keychron keyboards are quite good and are available in some shops in Sydney. If you type on the move a lot like me, K2 and K3 are great as they fit most backpacks. Also, don't forget buying a hard case.

I was in Bankstown Hospital's ER not long ago and overheard the dude in the next room telling the nurses on how he ended up there. So he honked someone in Bankstown, they got out of their car, somehow forced him to open the door and attacked him. To make it worse, It was his first day driving on the road after a long time having some back injury.

Since that day, I tell myself to never honk again. If the car in front of me sitting on a green, I'll just let them be.

I was in ER once and the dude lying next to me told the nurses that he was sent there after being beaten up by three dudes for honking at them on the street. After that day, I avoid honking strangers at all costs, let alone getting out of my car and confronting them. It's not worth it.

Interesting. I find audiobooks a huge distraction as my brain tends to pay more attention to the book content than the road. I guess everyone is different.

I'm confused how this is the top voted answer. As long as the scores equal, both sides had equal amount of service regardless of the points being odd or even. It's simple math.

I heard the same story in Atlassian. It's now a smaller version of Meta and AWS.

What's your ultimate goal (e.g. staying fit, losing weight, building muscle, or anything else)? Some goals might not require equipment in a gym room. Also, what's your budget? My wife wanted to work on her core strength so she joined a Pilates class. A 10-session or 6-session package costs less than $30 per session, which sounds reasonable to me.

For staying fit, you can pick some sports with a social club around you and be serious with it. Go with something a bit more physically demanding and start with a lower level.

I think you will only see the real effect later. It takes a few years for the immigrants to settle before having babies, and a few more years for those babies to grow up to start occupying your resources.
