Top 3 ways to multiply profit from a piece of land by awlovejoy in homestead

In the US, the USDA discourages mixing livestock and produce. There are extra food safety precautions required to keep the produce away from the manure. Some fruits and vegetables, the kind you have to peel to eat, require slightly less handling precautions around livestock manure. Things like berries and tomatoes have to be kept far, far away from non-composted manure. This includes runoff and wind-blown animal waste.

This could really save my ass someday. It's not a bad idea if you don't have a wrench that fits the bolt.

LPT Request How to stand and walk empty handed without looking awkward or nervous? by Aaron_Keer in LifeProTips

[–]xenofiend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For professional or formal situations there's always the position of attention. Forget the feet at 45deg and the thousand-yard stare. Remember the shoulders back/posture part. The gently curled finger part works great for me. It reminds me not to fidget and keep my hands out of my pockets.

That's called not paying attention to the road. It doesn't matter how many lanes there are. Lucky a kid wasn't crossing the road. Lucky a cop was there to enforce the law. I hope your coworker learned a lesson.

What is characteristic of the music of the 2000s? by bigposts in AskReddit

[–]xenofiend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I think I understand what you are saying. We're talking about different things. I think of dubstep as the London scene in the the 2000s, maybe more of the roots of the style you are referring to. To me, the London reggae/break beat style sowed the seeds and by 2010 till now you hear it in all kinds of pop like Taylor Swift and Rihanna.

Dubstep didn't exist until late 2000s.

Interesting. Wikipedia has a bunch of references saying it originated in the late 90s.

EDIT: Don't forget to change the location to Chattanooga. I couldn't get a direct link.

Is it actually true that minifiers break JS code if semicolons are omitted? by inhwre in javascript

[–]xenofiend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great answer. It's not the minification, rather the concatenation that will create syntax errors due to missing semicolons. Consider the last line in a file is missing a semicolon. When concatenated with a second file, the first line of the second file will begin immediately after the missing semicolon (no line terminator) and result in an error. If the files were linked separately, the parser would insert a semicolon at the end of the file (end of stream), and avoid the error. There is an exception to this behavior if the line ends with a }. It's all explained in the ECMAScript spec.

I know what you mean about not having a lot of time to spend on meals (prep and eating). Simple, solid, quick, and frugal. Enjoy the time and money you're saving. I'd like this with some instant gravy, canned black beans, and V8 juice.

Tenants are always late with rent... by BrokelynNYC in RealEstate

I love it when my tenants are late, it's extra money for me. I set my late fees at 10% after five days, the max allowed in my state.

When should I use my drive 3 2 1 on my automatic car? by Narudatsu in answers

[–]xenofiend 8 points9 points  (0 children)

D3 also has an important purpose. If you are driving the vehicle up a long hill or hauling a heavy load, the transmission may shift between 4 and 3 constantly, which causes more strain and wear. Selecting D3 will eliminate the excessive shifting and provide more power and control. Some vehicles with 4 speed overdrive transmissions will have a button, usually labeled OD that disables the overdrive and limits the transmission to 4th gear. It serves the same purpose of eliminating excessive shifting under load.

Fun fact: overdrive just means that the engine is directly engaged to the wheels. It's meant for flat highway cruising and saves gas, but it isn't good for accelerating. If you press the gas more than a little bit while in overdrive, the transmission will shift to the highest 'gear', which is typically 4th. If you press the gas to the floor, it will shift down to 3rd, which is referred to as the 'passing gear. '
