I don't believe their property taxes are 10%. $50,000 per year on a $500,000 home? Come on
I don't understand why they divide the appraised value by three, then compute 1.5% property tax from it and say they can't raise it any higher. Where I live, our property tax rate is higher even with a homestead…
What's frustrating about these academia threads, is that Ph.D. experiences are so diverse and different, depending on the discipline, subfield, university, advisor. Yet so many commenters oversimplify their one…
That last sentence, do you mean internal employees are paid less than new hires due to rising starting salaries? Or that new hires are paid little compared to long time employees?
Absolutely, the point of listing a university is to show status and expertise. No one is going to listen to a bunch of people whose main accomplishment is getting accepted into Cornell and San Diego State. The prestige…
That's another manual method. There's nothing that automatically gets every single page you go to. And nb would only work for stateless pages anyways.
Wow, basically this Ian guy asked thousands of musicians to be their publisher through his wife's secret llc in exchange for massive promotion, acting like it was a small project with a lot of corporate interest. He and…
They mention the 1MB club at the end of that page, but even more strict is the 250 kb club: https://250kb.club/
This is honestly one of the first time I'm convinced in a technical sense to consider Firefox over Chrome. uBlock Origin feels as core to me to web browsing as Saved Passwords and Incognito Mode. That uBlock Origin can…
I think it's not a useful exercise to come up with a better phrasing of the advice, as that's not really the point here. When you're in the moment reacting to peoples' questions and giving advice on the spot, you don't…
If the situation was reversed, where poorer employees were living with their parents, people would be upset with the inequality too. Even more so if the ones who were not living with their parents got stabilized rent…
Ah fair enough. It's been a little while. I'm surprised the Office buildings (16-18) turned hybrid, since weren't the buildings themselves architected to basically only have window offices? It was shaped like a snake to…
Don't nearly all Microsoft employees have offices? Every building I've been to (I can probably name off about 30 of them) had employees with offices. Can you name the buildings where employees don't have offices?
Right, but it literally says there it supports data transfer. So it's not charging only.
Exactly, the main complaint with using the wrong cable is the charging is only at regular usb speeds, or the data transfers at usb 2.0 rates. That's way better than nothing, and usually doesn't matter too much.
The XM3s are well known to support C2C charging. It's possible you have a defective cable or headphone if it's not working for you.
Do you have a source? I looked for a while and couldn't find anything except ones that say it supports data, just usb 2.0 speeds.
Just to clarify, are you talking about a usb-c to usb-a cable, or a usb-c to usb-c cable? I think the usb-c to usb-a cables are just temporary while we get to usb-c everything, and so are not implemented that well. With…
This article misses the biggest issue with usb-c cables, which a lot of people don't even realize. A lot of cheaper devices can only be charged with a usb-c to usb-a cable, and not a regular usb-c to usb-c cable (C2C).…
That's strange, I've never encountered a usb-c cable that did not support data at all. My understanding (and the article suggests) that charging and data are fine in general, but just not as fast as the device can…
That's the current system. The rich people pay the MRSP (about 70K/year), and the poor pays half as much on average due to various scholarships / grants / aid. Your way is just that in terms of outcome, except it's more…
Just to be clear, do you believe that affirmative action is only or mostly used in situations where a hiring/admissions committee has determined that a set of candidates are equal? Applicants having varying backgrounds,…
Once I started thinking of vision insurance as more like a bad coupon, where you get some small amount off if you buy a certain overpriced brand, it lost its appeal.
I'm completely confused. Why would those three people, who have supervoting rights, vote to take away their own supervoting rights and side with Benchmark the people who tried to remove Travis in the first place? It…
That's funny, because I was just thinking how Academia.edu has become a joke site, while everyone in my field uses Google Scholar daily. It's almost impossible to find references, put together a bib list, or navigate…
