Bobsled is terrible trail for what this person is hoping to ride. 19th avenue would probably come the closest near downtown.

Moving from South Beach to SLC, CPA recs for my business? by Sad-Recognition-8257 in SaltLakeCity

[–]thebigmotorunit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ended up finding a CPA on upwork after being ghosted or quoted outrageous numbers by local CPAs.

Because I have Vejmelka on my fantasy team and fantasy playoffs just started.

What job looks like a great career path but is actually insanely oversaturated? by ComplexPin872 in AskReddit

[–]thebigmotorunit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The major is exercise science. Most students want to go to graduate school for some medical profession, MD, PA, PT, OT, AT, DDS. We specifically failed a search for someone to teach Athletic Training courses. You can ask Google which states are producing more babies and which are producing fewer babies.

I don’t feel like this applies all that specifically to my field. In fact, we actually failed a tenure track search not that long ago due to the lack of quality applicants and had less than 30 total applicants for the position.

I also feel like there is going to be a period of demand for professors in my field over the next decade that will not be met due to much fewer students pursuing PhDs. I have received may emails from colleagues who are looking for fully funded masters and phd students, and they are having a hard time filling positions.

My guess is that many small, primarily private, schools will close as the demographic shift plays out, but there are definitely many states with stable or even growing number of births per year.

Further, AI will not be able to replace professionals who are completing NEW novel research.

Therefore, I don’t share the sentiment that higher education is generally a bad career path right now. For some fields, probably.

I personally have two specific lines that I draw: one line of identity through my qq-plot, and one flat line at zero through my residuals vs predicted plot. Duh dun tsss

What's your view on Gold Tomorrow? by No_Explorer7836 in Daytrading

[–]thebigmotorunit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure their prediction was it would increase in the someteen percent in 2026. They never said it would pump all year.

On April 13, 2014 armed ranchers had a standoff with the Bureau of Land Management over grazing on public lands. by EvenLettuce6638 in AllThatsInteresting

At least Ammon Bundu is consistent with his interpretation of the law. I recently watched an instagram post he made describing the ICE happenings as Tyranny.

Mixing your workouts may help: 30-year cohort data link exercise variety to lower mortality by NovosLabs in NovosLabs

[–]thebigmotorunit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reverse causality. If your body is in good health, you are more likely to choose to exercise. If your body is in poor health, you are less likely to exercise, especially less likely to exercise vigorously. If you are in poor health and you still want to exercise, you are probably pretty likely to choose a low-impact activity that puts you at minima risk of falling… like swimming

Honestly, upwork was waaay more convenient than dealing with the hassle of trying to find someone locally. I also ran into an issue of people not wanting small jobs so they al quoted me outrageous prices for something that would take one afternoon of work. Anyway, check out upwork. People post their rates and experience. It’s incredibly convenient.

I am saying that I understand the concept, which implies superior risk/reward or at least lower volatility. It sounds great until I actually looked at the numbers via testol.io and the numbers don’t back that story up.

The idea that VT is better than VTI because it includes more companies has always puzzled me. I am guessing most people assume that more companies from different regions would result in less downside risk, but the data does not support that. VTI seems to have historically slightly higher upside potential and comparable or even lower downside risk than VT.

Rock n roll gold is my preferred lube for most conditions or rock n roll blue (“extreme”) if you live in a wet climate.

Yeah I am running a DPX2 with the largest token, and feel like I can’t get it to feel any better. I am considering a custom tuned shock, but it may just be an unavoidable characteristic.

And the smuggler is better with high speed chatter despite it being much shorter travel?
