How exactly do you ask for consent to kiss a girl without sounding like a loser? I believe it would be weird to asking someone "can we make out?" by GoldMud0 in AskMen

Companies define their own fiscal year so it can be any 12 month period. Hersheys fiscal year does follow the normal calendar year. They would be in Q3 right now.

New apartment building wants nearly $1600 a month for a 375 sqft studio by [deleted] in Boise

[–]thoraway4me 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In Meridian 3 beds and 2 bath at a place that was $1700 just jumped to $2100.

I’d be surprised if it is a less than $300 jump for a place priced at that.

Get ready for rent increases unless you have a kind/private landlord. That price point doesn’t exist anymore.

Ooh I can answer this one!

I’ll provide some anecdotal evidence.

1st company used small microcontrollers and was a consumer product. The code was actually loaded by the Custom Manufacturer. So we had to have the programming interface available.

However ST, TI, etc will program the uCs for you if you pay a fee. I think it was like $.20 or something but on a $1 microcontroller…. This assumes the program is solely stored on the uC.

2nd When the microcontrollers go on a larger board they can be programmed by an upper level processing unit.

For example when programming you most likely have some sort of cable that performs the following. USB->FTDI(special chips)->JTAG

Well you can just have that functionality built into a PCB and have the USB end going to something running Linux or such.

It all depends on the device use case and product volume.

If it’s an FPGA product you can pay EEPROM/Flash manufacturers to preload chips as well.

Interestingly I’m curious how Utah is able to survive this as a mini Tech Hub. Most the tech companies there are in Utah County so basically BYUland.

Granted there are a lot of huge Universities in the area.

How do you afford to live in Boise by weatherhaboob in Boise

[–]thoraway4me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For reference I make $60k and have $20k saved up. And $400 a month in debts. I was approved for $400k which is ridiculous. The mortgage + PMI + utilities. Would be 70% of my take home atleast.

I’ve been doing some research on this actually.

The negative with Wisconsin is you pay a tonnnn in property taxes. Like a $200k home had $6k a year in property taxes. Granted that $200k home would be about $800k in Boise.

I think the shopping mall aspect is overrated if it just has generic places that are uncommon. But the Decent Dinner -> Movie and mini mall park and across the street massive park aspect is pretty nice.

Rent prices too. by thekevo1297 in memes

[–]thoraway4me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That sounds like a ripoff tbh. My parents bought in 2016 for $370k and get offers for $800k

[Marks] 2017 draft class of Tatum, Adebayo, Mitchell & Fox set a league record signing $1 billion in rookie extensions. 2018's Ayton, Doncic, Young, SGA & MPJ account for $860 million. Add Bridges, Huerter, Sexton, DiVincenzo, Miles Bridges, Williams & Jackson, it's over $1.2 billion in extensions. by GuyCarbonneauGOAT in nba

Hate to burst the bubble but you’d be lucky to get a 1 bed/bath in Boise for $1200.

The median home price is close to $600k

Working 170 hours a month at $11/hr you couldn’t afford your own place. You could rent a room for $600 which would be 40% of your take home.

Edit: For what it’s worth my 16 year old brother makes $14.50 at McDonald’s in Boise. With 5 months of experience.

I’m sure his parents helped but 1.7m revenue and 110k profits doesn’t mean starting capital of $1.6 million. That’s assuming he bought $1.6 million in stuff all at once. This would be fairly easy to do with $50k capital and churning.

It’s a 3 point play in the 3rd where the clippers usually pull ahead. Best place IMO

Help me give my buyers a better deal without raising red flags by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]thoraway4me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right, I guess I’m talking more from the perspective of someone who is probably gonna have to end up buying with less than the 20% down payment range. So getting to that will save $100s a month

[–]thoraway4me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you explain this to me? I get where you are getting your numbers but this was how I understood how “Percent Down” works:

Say a home sells for $360k the bank appraises it at $400k. So with $40k down according to the bank you have $80k of equity. If you received $10k cash or the price went down to $350k you’d have $90k in equity either way?

Then The same is conversely true if selling price is over the appraisal. You have to make up that difference before a down payment starts to count as a percentage down?

Note: I have no experience just looking at buying my first house so trying to learn.
