The 100k+ over asking was the big deal because that never made it into the housing data properly so prices looked like they were lower than they were and we don’t have accurate comparison data now

Very dependent on the field. A lot of jobs are concentrated in a handful of major cities, mostly very HCOL but with high salary. That’s why remote work becoming bigger partially caused the housing surge nationwide.

Money for elderly that can prevent them from needing very expensive nursing home care is a huge market with no limit if the product works well. Especially for Japan but really everywhere will have increasingly large cohorts of their elderly people with not enough young people to care for them.

You also have a thing where the minimum wage is far below the actual market rate, the typical wage in the area, and actually making minimum wage is way less than any other job. Nobody wants 7.25 an hour unless you’re forced to.

Children. Name calling isn’t something anyone else wants to see. If a weak insult is all you have to say then just ignore them.

This type only lasts a few weeks anyway, after that it will just look uniformly short.

Only if your exposure in the future is less than in the past. Otherwise it will just go back up again. And considering plastic use is going up, you would have to use air filters and avoid micro plastics as much as possible.

There was a study that found that chewing tough raw meat with human teeth is very ineffective. Fire makes eating meat much easier.

The bills have greater value because you can carry more of them in less space and the savings in space can be used to pick up other objects.

Simple, you just defragment the person into drone size pieces then reassemble.

Honestly it’s more relevant to classify them by beak shape. Birds are 100% based on their beak shape, because that determines what they can and can’t eat.
- Comment on I watched several videos on a Combine Harvester's inner workings and I still don't understand how this thing works. 2 months ago:
Again, this isn’t going to work for bulk grains like wheat and corn. I’ve seen plenty of permaculture type farms and they’re fine for small stuff and vegetables and more of that is good. But it’s not suitable for growing 50 million tons of wheat. Labor is already short and it will get worse.

Covercrop is still monoculture, monoculture isn’t inherently bad. Ultimately it comes down to cost. Labor is limited and a lot of the stuff you’re talking about are fine for small volume vegetables but you’re not gonna get feed the world wheat yields from that.
- Comment on There's still no sign of Star Citizen 1.0, but it did just get a revamped referral program so the die-hards can tempt in even more saps 2 months ago:
The money is going to salaries, so it’s basically just extended development. They’re all working and doing something. It’s basically just instead of releasing a game 6 years ago that was barebones and okay they’re making the sequel and won’t release the final game until they’re well done.
I’m confident it will release eventually, maybe another 5-8 years. As long as the devs don’t die of old age.

The kingdoms have changed several times, they’re basically trying to use a more accurate system based on DNA using genotyping to decide which groups are more closely related and be less reliant on behavior and appearance.
- Comment on Top D&D designers join Critical Role after quitting Wizards of the Coast 2 months ago:
It’s interesting and it seems like a good change for people that have done a lot of d&d but it’s probably not going to be a complete replacement for 5e. It seems good for short campaigns but it only has one book out for now.

Yeah, if it was just decorative with a facade then this is fine.

You can do it yourself but generally not in a group like that for most people.

I don’t mind that, because I use a small amount of milk for coffee and even a tiny bit is enough.

There are certain unique experiences you don’t get later. There are a few places that have field trips in college, but for most people that is only during regular primary school.

I believe the head rush effect is mostly when you first start and after that it diminishes and then you’re just dealing with the withdrawal.

They don’t need much maintenance and the engine brake evs do to recover the energy removes stress on the regular brakes so the brakes last a lot longer.
