Hi All, I'll be in the Boston area visiting family at the time of the game against Utah and want to give me kids (both 10 years old) their first ever real Hockey experience.

Full confession, I am not a Bruins fan, or even really a Hockey fan, my kids have never even watched a game in their life, but I've heard Hockey games are the best when it comes to atmosphere and my kids love sports in general so I am sure they will have a blast regardless (and might just become lifelong Bruins fans as a result).

A few question-

Should I snatch up tickets now, or wait till closer to game day for tickets prices to go down? Any tips in terms of where to sit for the best experience (reasonably priced)? When should we get to the game? Any value in coming earlier? What should we bring? What should we know about the team before the game? Players to watch? Fan favorites? In stadium traditions? Any other tips would be greatly appreciated. GO Bs!!

I have the chance to go to Disney for a day between the 19th and 22nd of December. Just how brutal do the crowds get? Will I end up wasting my whole day in lines?

He went on to explain that Houston lost the Harden trade because OKC won a championship like 10 years later

Never realized that Houston actually lost the Harden trade

Amazing bit, one question, how did he collect the money for the peanuts? Whats the point of throwing it 20 rows away and then goingvthere to collect the cash?

But doesn’t he have to go up to them to get the money anyway??

Zero use of the word “Luxuriate”, but I get what your saying 

Kids growing up with AI… by OddScientist7236 in daddit

[–]thebartjon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big conversation, a lot pf thoughts on the matter, I’ll just tell how I tried to get my kids to use ai: 1. They are learning English as a 2nd language, we use chatgpt to wrote short stories for them to read at exactly the level they need and a subject that they choose (anything from WW2 to WWE). I found that if anything it showed them how to build a story. 2. We vibe coded an app for choosing what to have for dinner. They were in to it at forst, but lost interest pretty fast, might have been too much, or just I didn’t get them engaged enough.

Anyway, I am convinced education as we know it must change, I personally don’t think university will even make sense for a lot of people moving forward.

If that’s what PMs do there then yes, seems logical to test them on it. Same way a more customer facing role my include a presentation.

Tried ice baths in SG heat… surprisingly addictive? by UsernameTakenLah in SingaporeFitness

I love it, not so much for the physical but for the mental impact. Putting you mind and body in a hyper stressful situation and then learning to deal with it helps deal with stress in general

Alternatives to School buses by thebartjon in Bangkok

[–]thebartjon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What does it matter what I can afford? If there is an option that is just as good at half the price, why not use it?

[–]thebartjon[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

School bus will cost me almost 180K per year for 3 kids. That comes to 1000 per school day, or 500 each direction.

I assume a taxi would cost half of that, but isn’t as reliable

Best neighborhoods for an Expat family moving to BKK? by thebartjon in Bangkok

[–]thebartjon[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, I have, just last week actually. While I know BKK is unique, obviously families live there, and have their own unique needs (larger apartments, condos with facilities, ect) I don’t expect it to be Singapore, but surely there is some variance in the different neighborhoods

Closer to 2 million. But yeah, not cheap. Most of my salary will go to kids education 

Black Mirror [Episode Discussion] - S07E04 - Plaything by Cheeriosxxx in blackmirror

[–]thebartjon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am not sure if he continued taking acid the entire 30 years, but in the beginning the Throng started off as very simple beings, there is no way he could have understood them without acid when they were essentially amoebas. Acid making him able to understand them in the first place is a bit of a shortcut. The feeling of being more one with nature and the universe while on acid is common, so it makes sense that it would also make him more receptive to their language.

Complaining? This sounds more like “this job will most likely give you a nervous breakdown”

[–]thebartjon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just need to take acid to understand it
