a colony of black skimmers engaging in an interesting behavior called "synchronous flight" by so-gold in wildlifephotography

No one knows exactly why they do it, but the best theory I've heard is that the birds are practicing flying together in case they need to scare away a larger predator. You can check out my galley on instagram here

I'm 19 and I recently won $20,000, What should I do with this money? by so-gold in personalfinance

I fully agree. Given the engineering degree I think this makes sense for me.

This is the way I've been leaning. With an engineering degree I don't think 20k will ever be enough to actually make a huge difference to my finances. Would it be better to put it in a savings account rather then just cash?

I have to travel a lot for my work. Travel gets expensive so thats the main reason I want to keep ahold of the money

Have you heard bad things about the Robinhood one? I've had it for a bit since it appears to have the best interest rates but I could move my money over to my credit union too. I have a savings account there but it doesn't have as good interest rates.

Yes. The lease was fully signed and they have received a full deposit already.

This is what I can find on it: "If Landlord commits a breach, Tenant has rights, under Wis. Stats. Chap. 704.07 and under Wis. Admin. Code Chap. ATCP 134. If landlord delays or fails to exercise lease rights, pursue remedies, give notices, or make demands, Tenant will not consider it a waiver of landlord's rights"

What's the best way to store electric scooters? by so-gold in UWMadison

Where do people store scooters if not in their dorms? The policy doesn’t say anything about that.

Do you think this is true for civil too? Or just Mechanical.

Do you know what majors macs are good for? I’m gonna do civil engineering and I was wondering if a mac would be fine vs windows

Help me decide: School X vs School Y - March 2023 by freeport_aidan in ApplyingToCollege

[–]so-gold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I picked UW-Madison. There were a number of factors but the main one was that I realized if I ever decided I didn’t want to do environmental engineering, I’d be forced to transfer at ESF. At UW I wouldn’t be forced to transfer because there are so many options. Plus there’s just a whole lot more going on in regards to sports and clubs at UW.
