I missed that small detail.
- Comment on Is it worth investing if I can only contribute $50 a month? 1 day ago:
Yes, saving is like a muscle you need to do it to get better with it. It’s far easier to turn 50/months into 200/month as your income grows, than starting at 200/month.
- Comment on But of course we don't want to poison our child. 1 day ago:
She went outside to smoke, so that’s good at least.
- Comment on Broccoli, cheese, and MILFs 1 day ago:
It reads like a 1 star recipe review
- Comment on "You can't have our trash because we don't have a way to charge you for it" 1 day ago:
If you want trimmings from a big chain talk to the butcher that does the cutting. You’ll likely get better results.
- Comment on What are some keto meals that are easy to make in bulk? Bonus points for stuff that can be frozen. 2 days ago:
I used ruled.me and cavemanketo.com for most of my keto recipes. Ruled me is good for fancier dishes if you want something a little different, some can also be made for a week or frozen. Caveman has lots of simple casseroles that are great for portioning out and freezing or eating over a week.

There are parsing libraries, maybe not as many or as open, but they exist.
- Comment on Is it ethical for a parent to distribute inheritance based on the child(ren)'s mental capacity (aka refusing to give an inheritance to child(ren) with reduced mental capacity)? 3 days ago:
Through the magic of the US government, more money actually can fuck them over. If they have more money than the government seems appropriate, they lose benefits and can be forced to pay back past benefits.

This is something that needs to be more common. Estate planning shouldn’t be a surprise for the survivors, dramatic will readings are a B movie plot device, not reality. You don’t need to do an annual reading of the will, but everyone should know the basics that’s involved.

XML is ok for complex docs where you have a detailed structure and relationships. JSON is good for simple objects. YAML is good for being something to switch to for the illusion of progress.
- Comment on Is there a theoretical limit to profit? 4 days ago:
Inflation and deflation are mutually exclusive they can’t both exist at the same time.
- Comment on Is there a theoretical limit to profit? 4 days ago:
Where do you think profit comes from? Spending is what makes profit happen.
- Comment on Is there a theoretical limit to profit? 4 days ago:
No. Or at least not while inflation exists.
- Comment on and we thought our thing with beans was bad 4 days ago:
Hot dogs are tacos.
- Comment on and we thought our thing with beans was bad 4 days ago:
There’s a common misunderstanding among a lot of .ml folks that markets are a capitalist thing and if you just don’t call them that then they don’t exist.
- Comment on Important life choices 5 days ago:
It doesn’t really degrade in a landfill though. Industrial composting is something I wish was more popular though, that would probably reduce my actual trash by about 50%.
- Comment on This Op Shop seems to have ordered their secondhand books by colour for some reason 5 days ago:
Most designers are from over function.
- Comment on Important life choices 5 days ago:
There’s plenty of paper that could get recycled as well that can’t in a single stream. I agree plastic going to a landfill is better though.
- Comment on Important life choices 5 days ago:
The problems are breaking glass back down is more expensive than using raw material and there’s the color issue. What glass excels at is reuse, it would be far better to have a handful of standard containers that could be easily cleaned and reused rather than attempt to recycle.
- Comment on Important life choices 5 days ago:
The problem is that mixing everything means massive contamination, so only metal is going to really get pulled out.
- Comment on This Op Shop seems to have ordered their secondhand books by colour for some reason 5 days ago:
One of the last renovation shows I watched just put the books backwards for a “clean look”
- Comment on Important life choices 5 days ago:
My previous employer just put signs on all the trash cans that they were processed for recycling after collecting. That always sounded like bullshit.
- Comment on Important life choices 5 days ago:
Paper can be effectively down cycled, and corrugated cardboard is absolutely worth recycling. Glass is just borderline, it’s not significantly better energy wise to recycle, and colored glass makes it more difficult. Plastic is better off in a landfill.
- Comment on Crisco in a Terracotta: Decoding the (Mostly) Useless Candle Meme 6 days ago:
It’s a troll post that makes the rounds because it sounds intriguing and plausible while not being super dangerous. People will try it and realize it doesn’t work, then feel too stupid to post about it not working.
- Comment on Will Republicans try another Federal Right to Work attempt? 1 week ago:
Being fired for any or no reason is at will employment.
Right to work has nothing to do with that. It’s about allowing people to not pay union dues. Those people are still protected by the union contract.
- Comment on Indian start-up Yes Madam fires employees who indicated being stressed in the survey 1 week ago:
You don’t benefit from it. Having been in a place where positivity is a focus, it’s just ignoring any problems or criticism that can’t be addressed with a work harder attitude. It forces out anyone not drinking the Kool aid, and those tend to be better employees.
- Comment on Should Democrats also gerrymander blue states to counterbalance any advantage that republicans have due to the gerrymandering in red states? 1 week ago:
California uses a jungle primary though, which disenfranchises minority parties.

People love their incest porn, just look at how it’s dominating all the porn sites.

Good movies will do better in theaters, bad movies will cost less with a streaming release. News at 11.
