- I'd love to rent out my current home but I hear horror stories of how hard it is to evict non paying tenants in my town. The big players are diversified and can eat the cost but an owner landlord with one property can be bankrupted by a bad tenant.
It's a regulatory moat as much as it is tenant protections.
- It's wild how it pops up and disappears. Well not completely disappears because I went back the next day after a show and there was balloon debris and trash littered everywhere.
I have a friend who has seen 100+ shows and he knows people whose identity and lifestyle is following the tour. They scrap to make ends meet and live on the road. A contingent of shakedown merchants fit that profile. Of course, some are there just to make money and don't see the shows. And some probably take turns running the booth while their clan is is at the show that night
- The business of the Phish shakedown is an interesting read too. Ice cold fatties..

- > Rippling has pursued this aggressively and confidently which hints that maybe there is some level of projection (i.e. they also had a spy in Deel).
Sounds like this came from Deel's PR team. Care to elaborate?
This type of baseless accusation reeks like what Zenefits did to Conrad.
- What's a good alternative to a FireTV with an alexa-enabled remote?
- How big was the check that came with this request? For the right price their logo can go on the rose garden lawn.
- Good book on the topic of selling - https://www.danpink.com/books/to-sell-is-human/
- Don't forget the salt!
My family recently realized that corn tortilla chips actually have less salt than the brand of flour tortillas we were using. I assumed incorrectly that deep fried, salted chips would have more sodium.
- A error correction technique I learned as a young land surveying assistant is to put a gps antenna on a known fixed point location. The delta between the fixed point and the point of measurement is cancelled out to get a more accurate read.
We did this to trial some new (at the time) surveying equipment when the primary equipment was optical. It would save time for really long measurements through the forest and mountainous terrain .
- A ham technician license is pretty easy to obtain in the US, and a handheld radio can be had for cheap. HF takes a little more hardware though.
- It sounds like a strawman argument.
I've only ever heard the argument of keeping the time fixed and then people can wake up earlier or later depending on their personal preference instead of it being coordinated (mandated) by law.
- It's jarring to my system. I like the natural progression of the seasons.
> and just coordinate it
I have never heard that argument before. Why does it need to be coordinated instead of a personal choice?
- Ford can't make them fast enough, apparently
- It's a great move.
I'd love for the backup cam to be integrated with the mirror as a standard feature. It's available aftermarket. Then a screen isn't really needed at all. It's just one more expensive thing that can break. It would be nice to be able to swap it out with a sub $200 head unit like the good old days.
Car audio was my intro to DC electronic systems in the 90's and I learned a ton from it.
- I've been shopping Ford Mavericks and they have no incentives other than a 3 year lease. They are hot because they are filling a market niche that is in-demand. Incentives are priced accordingly.
Low demand, high incentives. High demand, low incentives.
I'll probably end up selling it. Then it will get torn down and replaced with 4-6 units at US $800k+ each. It's hard to walk away from $4.8 million in development potential. I would be lucky to clear $900k selling it.
