The answer is qualifying for a mortgage is not as simple as you might think. Even if you do, good luck squaring that with prices that will almost certainly leave you "holding the bag" because none of it is sustainable ore makes sense. Wrap that into the best choice when you might get laid off at any second is not always a mortgage...
That last point seems like it's a great point for what rentals but I'll save you some time: for the vast majority of jobs thats strictly because of people enforcing office mandates unnecessarily because something like 1/3rd of assets in the USA are in commercial realestate.
My point being: the deck is stacked. There is not an actual housing shortage, there's just a housing shortage for human beings. An entire generation has gotten boxed out of the most classic way to build wealth.
Are you familiar with relative value units (RVUs)?
If not prepare to be furious. It essentially is Healthcare on commission. Everytime a physician orders a test, provides a service, etc, it counts towards an RVU quota. Multiple systems in my area base 100% of a physicians salary on meeting that quota. The minimum one bases 15% of the physicians salary on meeting that quota.
I'm a sane libertarian (I promise some of us do exisit). People absolutely have a right to determine what goes in to their body, but fluoride is such a weird hill to die on. In particular when fortified grains are a mandate of the same ilk. All of this has a history, and shocker, it was always steeped in the same "but our culture" wrapping...
Edit: tl;Dr if you don't want to watch the video: and pellagra was proven to be one of those diseases that is zero problem... So long as your diet doesn't suck. The science had push back because it upset the economics. We're fighting the same battles now we were then.
Edit2: yes. I'm a libertarian, because as much as they're freaking nuts it still stems from a disagreement of a stated principle. A principle which had them back a ton of LGBTQ rights before anyone else. I'm voting Biden in 2024, strictly because I'd like to vote in 2028, but godamn this is how 2016 happened.
Sure, but there are loads of medical conditions with less than ideal names (a particularly severe structure is caused by a gene literally named Sonic the hedgehog). The clinical name might be important in a clinical setting but that's not where most of us interreact with people. I'm just going with what I've known people to prefer.
Honestly the comparisons you made are the point. They're just people who are short, not a magical mythical race of non humans lmfao. THATS where the whole "little person" thing comes from.
You know, we're not required to do that but because of you I just ordered some locks and labels for the field kit (edit: as well as breaker locks).
Our stuff is always temp (8-12mo) and on a dedicated line. The sites we're on always involve coordinating with the clients appropriate people and specifically stating we're not trained in this to their standards (which is why I know some of this stuff but not to the letter), but an extra layer is always a good idea. No harm ever came from an extra lock that couldn't be fixed.
Thanks.
edit: for the record it's not like we're negligent, everything in our system is designed to fail-safe, and we compartmentalize power delivery, but still, no harm in a few extra items in the kit.
Thought so. I work around this stuff but my end of it usually low voltage/low pressure/ low risk. We should observe it more but usually we just have someone that LOTOs anything going to us.
But yeah, and for anyone else, repairs can wind up being more complicated than anticipated, parts arrive late, etc. It's not uncommon for these to be in place for weeks sometimes when say, electrical starts something, but then plumbing needs to finish whatever before the pump motor hookup can be complete. Before you know it it's 2 weeks later, electrical had a bunch of other jobs. The LOTO makes sure they come and inspect before unlocking rather than go "yeahhhh I'm pretty sure we left that ready to turn on, go for it" plus making sure no other work got screwed up (like a wire conduit getting drilled into by plumbing).
To be sure, handing off the keys does happen, but if and when it happens there's the weight of "by handing this off you're personally taking responsibility".
I think it's so you can create "and" conditions for unlocking. IE: If you've got two locks, each with their own key, both person 1 AND person 2 need to unlock it. So you can have multiple people and/or multiple crews working on the machine across different aspects. Maybe one crew is doing electric, the other some kind of plumbing, and they're working at different times. When one crew finishes their work, they can release their lockout without making it unsafe for the other crew.
I got a santa-cruz. Originally wanted a Mav hybrid but they were unobtainable at the time, and I lucked into a hell of a deal on fully loaded SC.
It's got the roll cover. I originally had planned on taking it off because, as noted, the canister takes significant space, but all in all it's just to damn convenient. While I agree the way tesla did their cover seems slick, I'd have a lot of reservations about it being motorized, especially with Teslas build quality issues.
But @car@hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com I think is right. At the price point, you're not buying for practicality anymore. No one needs a vehicle at that price point (unless your legitimately hauling horses across multiple states or something), so they're buying on feel. But ultimately I think that's going to be what the death knell of Tesla is. The tech is no longer leading, there are still build issues, and the "statement" someone would be looking to make by paying that sticker is rapidly not becoming a good one.
And I'm in the same boat. They're my kind of hideous. I'd love one someday, but I'd pay about as much as I'd pay for an MGB or Triumph, because I put it in the same category.
... I had never thought about it this way. You're totally correct though. I spend way more time fighting with my windows machine than I do my linux these days. I also just have a lot less patience fighting it because it's always due to some dumb shit it didn't need to be doing in the first place.
this thread is making me realize I'm clearly missing something. How do people actually use discord? Me and my friends basically use it as semi-permanent group chat. A few different topic areas, and no stupid android/ios compatibility issues. I'm also in two servers for some small clubs. Do people really use it the way they would lemmy/reddit?
That makes sense, I'd hope title insurance folks are easy to work with because that has to be one of those fields where like 99% of people never have a claim against it... at least a hope so lol.
Thats insane. And at that point they were there for 7 years. Most people stay in there house longer, but any million things could have made them want to move in that window. Sick family member, job, whatever, and they would have been stuck.
This crap happens (not that at it should and you're correct). I know someone in construction. They leaned a property that the title company just... didn't see the lien? Property was sold, The lien wasn't bonded off or anything either.
It got resolved but man, that would have been a mess. I think at that point the new homeowner is on the hook, and would need to get their due by going after the title company?
