It depends on how big your house is.
I paid $10k for a 4 ton 15 SEER AC this summer (this depends on location I suppose). I paid $13k for a normal roof replacement last year.
1600 sqft house.

So we’re going to put tariffs on things where there aren’t even domestically-sourced options? WTF?
I envy that type of freedom. Go for it! Hope you meet some awesome game developers and learn a lot!
I feel the gaming industry itself is abusive and low pay. In HS, I thought I was going into the video game industry as well. But now I’m just doing enterprise-y REST API development. It pays more and is less demanding than making games. Family comes first I guess. I can do my passion projects on the side if I want. I managed to buy a home by moving to LCOL area in Texas instead of going to California.
Maybe a Ford Maverick or a Honda Ridgeline. The other trucks are just unreasonable. $80K for a Tundra, or $60K for a Tacoma? WTF!!!
TBH, I feel like there’s an oligarchy controlling both parties. I voted for Harris, but I think I just voted for the less bat-shit crazy side. The billionaires are still going to get richer, corporations will continue to consolidate, middle-class will keep dwindling, and common people will keep getting poorer and have less say.
Same, running a E5 2697 v4 (18C/36T) (Broadwell) that I bought used about 2 years ago. Also have a server running Ivy Bridge CPU.
I don’t game much, but this CPU is perfect for productivity type of work.
The malnourished, 1 ft shorter than their S. Korean counterpart troops?
The first step in not living in a shithole is to not build a house in a shithole, e.g. swampy Florida.
Unbounded risk-taking such as insuring people building houses in risky locations will lead to bankrupting the country.
If insurance is going to cover it, then there needs to be stipulations on the home owner to reduce the risk - for example, building the home out of steel and concrete, raising the structure high enough so that floods and storm surges cannot reach indoors, etc.
Putin is also one of the world’s richest man and funds Trump.
Things are so tiny nowadays, you could probably cram a tiny processor w/ ram, and 5g modem into something the size of one of those cylindrical capacitors. Of course getting by the scrutiny of US engineers receiving a product with that would be a little harder.
What is this place? How do I get back to my AOL?
Its really sad because rural America is a beautiful place where you can still find tight knit community, find ways to be self sufficient to work on your own land. But I’m not white and worry about running into the wrong crowd…
Yep! There’s a surplus of educated women, who are too educated / accomplished in their careers to want to marry uneducated rural men. And many of them also deferred marriage for their education and career and thus became a bit too old to bear children. All of this just exacerbates the male to female ratio problem in China, which is also a huge problem for China’s demographics.
China is going to shrink in population, Japan, Korea, Taiwan also have these problems.
Pretty amazing that Iguazu Falls and Victoria Falls ended up in roughly the same place!
I’ve always thought that trying to address DEI from the top-down is never the right way to do it. This include college admissions. All it actually does is promote unfairness and a non-meritocracy. It takes many years of training to learn the skills needed for certain jobs. Hiring someone because of their skin color instead of their qualifications can actually hurt the bottom line (and top line) and just leads to more resentment. And it also really cheapens and damages the reputation of the minorities who actually worked and earned their way to their spot. Had a super smart Nigerian friend who is a medical doctor who finished very high up in rankings in medical school. But because of DEI policies, people will always wonder if he got to his place because of “quotas”.
Raising your kid(s) right is better than passing any monetary wealth on to them. If they grow up knowing that they’re set and will inherit your money/house, they may get lazy and just depend on that wealth. That money will be gone after the 3rd generation.
