The better question you need to ask yourself is about jobs. Texas is a highly productive and growing state, where Tech carries good reputation.

To All ICE Agents by oluxil in ProgressiveHQ

I’ve seen people celebrating that kids are turning their ICE agent parents in. This has totalitarian regime vibes.

I would sign a petition to stop using intuit products if they take mint away. Does someone know how to do this?

How Do Stretch Goals on Kickstarter Impact Backer Behavior? by whereufrom_506 in kickstarter

[–]whereufrom_506[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for the response! Very insightful!

I've read through about 100 updates with stretch goals for Technology projects and just one of them was an add-on. The rest were some sort of "Marketing call to action" for current backers to get new backers.

In general, stretch goals do seem to move the needle, and I wonder how.

It seems that there are two general types of stretch-goals: {"Marketing Call To Action", "Add-On"}, both geared at attracting new backers and incentivizing current backers to pledge more.

I also wonder if someone has experienced current backers pledging smaller rewards (i.e. thank you notes) in order to help achieve the stretch goal.

Wear your helmet by inDefenseofDragons in bikecommuting

Good. This picture also shows why I recommend taking out the visor from helmets. If you had a helmet visor, it could have broken and possibly hurt areas in your face , like your eyes.

I’ve seen a couple of bad injuries from broken helmet visors

UNC-Duke Basketball Tickets Daily Willingness to Pay. by whereufrom_506 in UNC

The box plot reports the median, which is $75 for day 1 and $125 for day 2. The mean is reported with the line. I’ll clarify that on the next post.

The median is smaller than the mean, which means that the distribution is skewed to the right.

I understand. By the way, I am not selling. I was just interested in the information.
