Can you clarify the meaning of 4 tildes surrounded by the letters 'cul', for those of us who are new around here? Thank you
<It sounds nice but I wouldn't know how to action any of that.> I'd rather work with someone who's honest about how they operate than with someone who uses action as a verb.
You need from 24-30+ credits of Accounting coursework in every state. No one is taking 8-10 accounting classes in college to round out their electives. 99% of CPAs have a business degree. Yes, there are exceptions.
You're confusing SITTING for the exam with being issued a license -- it's the latter where you'll need a degree. The rules are set up to allow college students, who are close to graduation, to sit for the exam. The…
PASSING the test is what is rigorous. Just as you don't need a law degree to sit for the bar (in some states), the requirements to sit for the CPA exam are basic. But the exam itself is not a walk in the park.
<And you don't need a college degree to become one in many states.> I don't think ANY state requires a degree or CPA license to be employed in a job that may have the word accountant in its title; however, there are…
Thank you for clarifying.
What if I just want an offline record of my emails for the day that google decides to delete me from the internet? I'm confused -- Mbox files can indeed be viewed offline. (Not to say your point about the ease of…
I'm straight and disagree with your assertion that our educational system had become feminised to the point of "alienating and neglecting hetero boys". Curious to hear the basis for your opinion, though.
I think there's some confusion over whether the term fit means just attaining an ideal body weight or also having a lean and muscular appearance. The latter isn't so easy to achieve through just walking and diet, but…
(And some days, I listen to music when I work out.)
Counter-point to valid point: exercise can go by more quickly if you're interested in a podcast. And when I'm done exercising, I may not want the podcast on, so I can then focus on work. Just as certain kind of music…
Many in the medical profession find their job rewarding b/c they enjoy improving the quality of other people's lives. Not the same as social justice but also for a worthy cause. Hats off to those folks...
This podcast was a good listen. One of the authors/hosts, Steven Levitt, worked at a consulting firm when he first got out of school. I don't think anyone would dispute that these firms employ smart and talented people,…
Subscribed. Thanks for putting together this quality content. I was checking out your merge dataframes video the other day, that I was led to from a Stack Overflow post. I'm not a novice w/Pandas but I find that things…
Great stuff, swyx. Thank you for saving me some time -- Randy would approve. I'm gonna spend the time you saved me watching his other video, The Last Lecture.
Sounds like you've struck a great balance between being unafraid to tackle some cool, challenging projects and sniffing out the tasks that aren't worth your trouble. Knowing the boundaries of your expertise is key, no…
There is merit to the parent comment advising that some DIY excursions are best left alone, but I appreciate the adventure that comes with grinding my wheels from time to time. Hassle builds character! My buddy is…
...and make lists. (This is an excellent one.)
Clarification: Eating mostly plants is sound advice if you consider that it means eating fruits, vegetables, whole grains and legumes.
The curse of knowledge (or expertise) is interesting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curse_of_knowledge Edit: Sorry for the dupe. Vizzier posted this a minute or three before I did.
I respect and agree with what you are saying. Even on the "higher-end", my relationships with the opposite sex were often unorthodox, shallow, or outright dysfunctional. And most of them were before my diagnosis. I'm…
I should be clear in stating that my life hasn't been a bowl of cherries. Asperger's is at the core of a looooong list of problems I've had with interpersonal relationships, whether it's family, friends, co-workers,…
There was a time when society relegated women to pursuits that frequently deprived them of many opportunities to invent. Fortunately, society has changed.
Good point. The author of that article, Baron-Cohen, has previously written (debated?) about whether HFA/AS is a disability OR a difference. Speaking for myself, and many who identify as having Asperger's -- and your…
