One thing nobody ever considers about landlords. . . It costs them a considerable amount of money for their property to be empty. Most of them will accept slightly lower rents to keep the property occupied constantly. This cost avoidance ensures that there are always landlords at below market value, thus keep the higher rents in check.
- Comment on What would be a good glue to repair this spatula with that wont he toxic or come undone in a dishwasher? 8 months ago:
I have only my own experience to back it up. I’ve always washed my wooden utensils in the dishwasher (top rack only). The cheapest ones do ok, but show some wear after a few years. The bamboo ones look as good today as when they were purchased (10+ years ago).

Not that much of a problem, and even less so if you use bamboo utensils.

Heyday is what you mean, I think.

There are 2 choices so they are equally likely
- Comment on [deleted] 9 months ago:
There are only two options at that point. It MUST be 50-50.
- Comment on [deleted] 9 months ago:
The host’s intentions are irrelevant. Numerically, there are only two choices. That makes it fifty-fifty.
- Comment on [deleted] 9 months ago:
Now you have 2 choices: the door you chose, or the only other door left. One has a goat and one has a car. That’s fifty-fifty.
In your explanation, the door originally had a 1% chance, but after showing 98 goats, it has a 50% chance.
- Comment on [deleted] 9 months ago:
After you find out there’s a goat behind door #2, you have a 50% chance whether you stay on 1 or move to three. There are only two possible outcomes at that point (car or goat), so either way it’s a coin flip.

Or add 3% to the green grid

Three apps, plus still needing iTunes for podcasts. Thanks, Apple.

- Comment on ‘Zombie Offices’ Spell Trouble for Some Banks - The New York Times 9 months ago:
It’s easier said than done, but it’s not that difficult. It’s mostly reconfiguration of plumbing and zone controls on HVAC. The electrical is easier to distribute.
If you commit to doing it the right way, and tear it down to the structure (but leave the facade alone), it’s not terribly difficult.
The problem is that the building owners want to do it cheap, and it won’t be cheap. It will be more economical in the long run than fully vacant building though.

They can, but many do not.
- Comment on Boeing flags potential delays after supplier finds another problem with some 737 fuselages 9 months ago:
Yes, but actually no. They are looking NOW, because they are being forced to look. They apparently weren’t before, which is a sign of bad QA, and the scary part for the potential passengers.

I just want them to make it a KC Chiefs helmet full-time.
- Comment on Boeing flags potential delays after supplier finds another problem with some 737 fuselages 9 months ago:
They can also be a sign of poor quality control and/or poor quality in general, which makes them newsworthy to people (potentially) entrusting their lives to the workmanship involved.
- Comment on Why do some websites have a "Continue Reading" button? 10 months ago:
As a person who knows nothing about web development, can you not load the pages in smaller chunks, so that the first screen or two worth of stuff loads fast and the rest could load while you are looking at it. That way, to the user, it appears to load quickly enough to keep them from leaving?
- Comment on Why do AI image generators have a stroke when they try to generate text? 10 months ago:
So all they do is remove some noise for many steps in a row until a clear image emerges.
So it’s like Mark Twain? said, writing is easy, all you do is write everything down, then cross out all the wrong words. Or something to that effect.

- Comment on There’s a new iMessage for Android app — and it actually works 11 months ago:
Total time spent between all of the discussion, hand-wringing, programming, and reporting, this has got to be be pretty high on the list of colossal time-wasters.
- Comment on what is the correct way to use the word "backorder" in English? 11 months ago:
Not necessarily. When a situation is “in flux” it is changing or unstable.
- Comment on what is the correct way to use the word "backorder" in English? 11 months ago:
Except for “in flux”, as a description of a state of being

It’s not that people think they don’t work in the cold, it’s that they are less suited for the areas or days of extreme cold.

- Comment on Ebay Could Owe $1.9 Billion in Fines for Allowing Sale of 343,000 Emissions Defeat Devices 1 year ago:
Ebay’s response: “This is unprecedented!”; not “This is a lie!”, or “We’re not guilty!”.
If your best response is that the EPA hasn’t prosecuted you this large before, then you must be super guilty.
- Comment on Netflix is planning to raise prices… again 1 year ago:
Seems like, at a certain point in your growth and success, you could use your billions to buy back stock. That could keep the stock price high, which keeps investors happy. Once you’ve bought back enough stock, you can effectively go private again, with all of the growth paid for by investors.
