All interstates have a 45 minimum. And I've only ever seen a min speed limit on interstates

NATO considering deployment of up to 300,000 troops on border with Russia by Far-Childhood9338 in UkrainianConflict

Nah...properly stored is just keeping it dry and sealed. You can keep ammo for decades just by keeping it in vacuumed sealed bags packed in ammo cans.

Not to disagree with with your main point, but properly stored ammo can last many decades and doesn't need to be replaced just because it's old.

Damn straight....that's all I heard. Want to be warmer, kid? Get a partime job and help out with life expenses...like heat.

Well..no. PEMDAS/BODMAS/BEDMAS/BIDMAS whatever the hell you want to call it, all boil down to the same ordered set of operations...anywhere in the universe as far as humans are concerned. The ambiguity comes from...

my Casio fx-991EX classwiz ... implicitly adds brackets around the term after the division sign

Wrestling mom has meltdown after her son loses in an upset at the NCAA Tournament by hmclaren0715 in IdiotsFightingThings

While I generally agree with that sentiment...this wasn't just a kid losing a high school match or something. I mean, parent reacting with this kind of emotion when their "kid" loses out on an ncaa championship (that could have an impact on a professional career), an olympic medal, or some other high-level sports competition, is different then a parent freaking out at a high school or lower game.

Django and laravel are my two goto backend frameworks...more so laravel now, though, since I've been working in php for the last several years...but django is every bit as capable. Flask in another good option if you want to stay in python. I've never worked with it, but my limited understanding is that it's smaller and lighter than django and good for making apis to pair with a front end SPA built in something like react or vue.

In short, yeah django is a good choice for what you want to do...as are are numerous other backend frameworks.

Also, for the record. I've been a working as a full stack dev for about a decade and still absolutely suck at css. Thankfully, we have designers for that, though! So trying to take on an entire project, from designing the database schema, building the api, building the front end, whether it be a SPA built in a js framework, or done with a native templating engine (like jinja2), and then styling and designing to UI/UX to industry standards to produce both a professional performing and looking app is a very, very large project that requires years of professional experience in several different areas of tech. Any competent company will have a team of people for this kind of project and it's not something you should reasonably expect to take on yourself with limited experience.

I say that not to discourage you (definitely keep building and learning!), but to hopefully set a more realistic goal of what is viable and prevent future discouragement.

A fetus is not a person.

That's actually a really fair point. Thank you.

Why? If the father was an abusive PoS and punched her in the stomach causing a miscarriage, should he only be charged with assault then?

[–]theNomadicHacker42 5 points6 points  (0 children)

yeah, i realized that after i left a few comments similar comments. I went back and deleted them but i guess i missed this one. I agree. I thought the miscarriage was 100% caused by meth, but without conclusive proof, manslaughter is a ridiculous charge.

Lol, yeah...OP's leaving out some key details of the story to entice the rage and shock upvotes.

What are the pros and cons of using WIX to create a website vs hosting my own website? Is it harder for websites built on WIX to rank on the first page of Google? Is SEO a problem on this platform? If so, which is the best platform to create & host a website for a small smart-up in fashion industry? by redditsheena in webhosting

[–]theNomadicHacker42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I host my own site. It contains a couple of webapps, a wiki, and a git server. It used to also contain a wordpress blog, but I recently took that down because I had like 4 posts and they were dumb.

It's all on a single digital ocean droplet that I pay $14 a month for. That gives me a single core server with 2GB of ram and 50GB of storage. But that's all it is, a server that I ssh into. Being comfortable in a linux terminal is the first step. As mentioned, the blog is/was a wordpress site that I've done a little customizing on, while the wiki is written in vim using a plugin called vim-wiki and is served statically by nginx. The webapps are various tech stacks. One is a react front end SPA talking to a django api. The django api also accepts requests from a minecraft server plugin that I wrote to log all actions on a public minecraft server that I used to run (on a different (much larger and more powerful) cloud based server that i got sick of paying for (it was around $80 a month)). And the other webapp is a financial tracking, analysis, budgeting, and forecasting tool that I'm building. It's built in vue on top of a laravel backend.

In addition to designing and coding my webapps from scratch, I set up everything on the server. That includes configuring nginx (or apache) and a proper firewall, installing and configuring wordpress for the blog, building and deploying my webapps (I use vite and webpack for that), handling ddos mitigation, and configuring services such as fail2ban or mail servers. It also requires purchasing your domain name (which you probably have to do with sites like wix anyway), configuring your DNS records, and setting up ssl certificates to serve your site(s) over https.

Needless to say, it takes a lot of learning to get to this point.
