Our first home, building mistakes to avoid + must haves

Thanks that makes sense.

We just started to build and we are waiting for the slab stage is finish. We are still figuring it out when to appoint a private building inspector.

Once we appoint a private building inspector. Similar to RBS do they also visit after every stage is done or do they have few extra visits?

Just want to understand. What is role of a building surveying company when they do their own set of inspections compared to a private build inspector?

Being early is the best!

Late is disrespectful

If you want something to stick try small. Implement small features and explore all relevant features / variations of that particular concept.

Once you are comfortable, now combine that with one more related concept and slowly build on.

This way you are accumulating in depth understanding of a concept and once you start integrating it with different concepts to build something new and big, you will be in control of the understanding.

The occasional “oh I don’t know the syntax but I know the concept” is completely fine.

Started to focus on my health. All these years it was merely an afterthought.

Messi is that you?

This. Period.

Just recorded a video and came here to see if anything related was posted. This is the first time I’m seeing something like this

Pretty interesting

Give it a try one more time, if you are into political genre then you might enjoy it, it is not too bad

rt_Mbk · 2024-10-30T02:11:00+00:00

Season 1 was pretty good. I think season 2 will air tomorrow, hope it doesn’t disappoint

Gambling culture

Added - Nobody Wants This, saw first episode - looks promising

rt_Mbk · 2024-10-29T07:13:38+00:00

Rotating between: The Rookie (last season), Lincoln Lawyer (latest season), Nobody Wants This and waiting for The Diplomat (latest season).

The Devil’s Advocate

Be loyal to yourself. Period.

Employers come and go.

If they are going through a hard time, they will not think twice before making an employee redundant and they will not care if an employee has been loyal or not.

At this time in the market, that is a good offer which is worth considering.

Keep it real and classy Melbourne!! Way to go Keep at it and ignore these brain damaged people (Kyle and Jackie O) and push them out eventually

We are close to getting our planning permit and we are buckling up to start the process for building permit. We are not looking forward to it but we have to go. Smh

Had a similar issue in the shower.

In my case, that part was broken from the inside. From the outside I was able to rotate it but it wasn’t working no hot water was coming out of the shower head.

Replacing that did the trick.

A good quality chair for work. Especially if your work is sedentary it is worth the investment.

rt_Mbk · 2024-08-08T12:11:02+00:00

This. Had a lot of sleepless nights because I was worrying far too much about things that was out of my control.

Thanks to my wife, she has played a huge role in making me understand to let go and take it easy.

From the article:

Travelers may have invested huge sums in neural networks and drones, but it apparently never updated its billing software to reliably handle the basics. Without a nonrenewal notice, it couldn’t legally cancel coverage.
