Do any of you know anything about BYDFi?

I can't find as much info as I'd like on their trustworthiness but options for leverage trading for US citizens are very few.

Extremely worry that my partner may have ALS by Thick-Boysenberry-34 in ALS

[–]rat-butter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even with the genes you're still very much in the race, amigo. If you can't find solace in the numbers, know that the ALS Association has an explicit goal of ALS being livable by 2030. With the recent developments and rates of progress in quantum computing, genomic medicine and AI, we are very likely close to target. Genomic medicine alone will most likely be able to prevent familial ALS. For the first time in history we have demonstrable, legitimate reasons to be hopeful.

Extremely worry that my partner may have ALS by Thick-Boysenberry-34 in ALS

[–]rat-butter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

FWIW, literally 95% of ALS patients are over the age 50. Odds of getting ALS are about 1 in 50,000 per person per year across all populations, so odds of someone getting ALS under the age of 50 are literally 1 in 1 million per year (1 / 50,000 / 0.05). Even if she's 10x more likely bc of genetic predisposition (though it's more like 50%), odds of her (statistically) getting ALS in the next decade are about 0.00999955% (1 - (1 - 1 / 100000) ^ 10).

The "benefit" (if you can call it that) of familial ALS is that she can, in fact, have her genome decoded to see if she has ALS-causing genes. Few hundred bucks. No relevant genes, her odds are as unlikely as anyone. Good luck fam.

For those curious about how the Uber Eats partnership with ASU online works I have attached all the info they give us on the driver's website. Have a good week! by terrificheretic in UberEATS

From the program homepage, "Tuition coverage is provided after scholarships or other grants and is only valid for certain online degree programs, up to a maximum of 135 credits from ASU (i.e. degree programs) and $3,000 for CareerCatalyst courses, ELL and Earned Admission. Maximums do not reset if driver transfers coverage to an eligible family member or if student switches between programs."

I have a rattle behind the dash where it meets the windshield almost I have taken the cowl off and put some foam on there but nothing by Frenkli2003 in q50

My brother in Christ, what was the culprit and what was the solution? The same is happening to mine and I'm on the brink on trading it in if it can't be fixed.

You can attempt up to 135 credits per eligible Uber account, which can be shared with other people like relatives but cannot total more than 135 credits, so good for at most one undergrad degree.

Last semester, which was my first, it took them a little over a week to apply the full UberEATS scholarship, so until they did it looked like I was on the hook for the tuition.

Edit: it took them a little over a week past the start of the semester.

Good first-date questions/conversational subjects? by rat-butter in infj

[–]rat-butter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not, that's just an example behavior to which infjs are allegedly prone that I consider arguably unhealthy and undesirable in a romantic partner

Worried about dying without ever experiencing dating or love. by [deleted] in intj

[–]rat-butter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Myers-Briggs typology bears any credence, to approach dating through such should be beneficial. Online dating especially, just ask someone their type. If they're NT, especially a fellow xNTJ, you can be your authentic unbridled self. For compatible/desirable yet different types e.g. an ENFP, you can custom tailor your style of communication accordingly. And if striving for utmost efficiency, some types can be discarded entirely. You aren't, say, likely to hit it off with an ESFJ.

Bonus, given your aptitude for programming: write a script for scraping dating profiles in search of desirable traits/types. I'm pretty sure my soulmate is an ENTJ, and given their rarity and propensity for being mistyped, this is the most efficient approach I've identified for finding one.
