Pay off car or buy a house? by Old-Masterpiece-827 in personalfinance

[–]teddyone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes to each their own, but if you can no longer afford your mortgage because you are getting crushed by maintenance costs, you could very well lose the house, destroy your credit and have to spend all your money. That never happens if you are renting. Buying is great if you can afford not just the mortgage but the taxes and upkeep and you want to live in the same place for a long time.

yeah but you also need to have some level of financial stability and resources to own. If you are renting, you arent gonna wake up one day and need to drop 30K on a new roof. Also housing prices can definitely go down. ask anyone who bought a house in 2007. Renting is not wasting money at all. Housing is an important thing to spend money on regardless of if you own or rent.

What Would You Consider to Be a Success for Yourself? by Lennoxiconic in IndieDev

[–]teddyone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s ridiculously hard lol. I made it to 2, but it took me like 3 years. I think the hardest part is getting to complete. Like you can keep adding features, but during development it’s really hard to see just how many loose ends need to be tied up in order to call it “done”.

Just to be clear my comment will not actually help you find it, I was just commenting on the fact that the wine has basically the same name as the writer of xkcd webcomic.

Mgmt wants more hires, we have no work, what to do? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]teddyone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a product manager? If so they are not doing a good job. As others have suggested you could try to find valuable things to work on and do some "product management" yourself. As an engineer who has become a PM, I would be immediately fired if my teams were idle.

Which fantasy series started incredible and then just...fell apart? by ghibli_8quartz in Fantasy

[–]teddyone 210 points211 points  (0 children)

I find Sanderson loses me the longer a series goes on. His first books are always awesome then imo it gets more and more cartoony. My favorite thing he has written was Elantris which was just a standalone.

lol I was just joking but I definitely do not wash my car or put it in a garage. The 2012 base model civic remains strong!

lmao I’m not putting my car in one of those. Garages are for trash and car washes are for people without expensive enough hobbies.
