I've heard people being excited about AMD stock but I have no idea why. Aren't they still just making 2nd tier processors? Why is that so exciting?

Uterine Lineup posted:1) https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/in-theory/wp/2016/03/03/how-parking-requirements-hurt-the-poor/?utm_term=.9ada5df47c7f Yeah #1 just too selfish to care much about compared to increased ease of parking. #4 maybe but at some point there will be enough lanes to fit all the people in the world and life will be great. Maybe when flying cars come and we have sky lanes. Also, I think the title of the article is misleading. I think the study found that traffic actually stayed the same, not increased.

Tiny Brontosaurus posted:You're providing a really good example of why the human mind can't solve distant, abstract problems like global warming. You see something you think might make your life easier right now, so how could there possibly be any consequences in the future? Human lifespans are just too short. We all recognize the consequences. If everyone lived a thousand years I guarantee we would all care a lot more about global warming. But hey, in 100 years I'll be dead and you'll be dead so whatever. Maybe the last 10 years will be horrible and my house will be underwater, I don't know. Your point is well taken though. Cities and public transportation are better for society and anyone who has kids and etc. But drat did it suck to carry your groceries around on the bus.

Doc Hawkins posted:It sure would; 130k would last for multiple years of luxurious world travel. That's way over the top. Business/first class tickets are ridiculously expensive. We're not even talking about private planes here. A night at a fancy resort with an ocean view is at least $1-2k. I don't know what your definition of luxurious is but I can't imagine that it involves flying in economy. The average American wedding costs around $25k. When you take that into account, a wedding of $150k sounds almost reasonable for people who I bet make way more than 6x the average American. Some of you guys have seriously limited imaginations.

I think most travel agents are free if you do the legwork yourself and just use them to book a hotel reservation with their virtuoso benefits. There is definitely a luxury travel agent market out there.

US MD schools never let you replace a grade. DO schools used to, but they recently changed their policy without any forewarning or grace period which is probably what this post is referring to. Pretty bullshit to be honest. I'm sure a lot of people such as the reddit poster wasted a bunch of time and money already retaking classes.

Enfys posted:They probably did him a favour in the long term. The chances of someone who failed 7 undergrad classes being able to cut the long slog through med school and residency is pretty low, and then he'd have way more than $75k in debt. I know a number of people who hosed up big in college before getting their poo poo together and becoming great physicians. It's one thing if you just can't handle the workload. It's another if you just got a bit too crazy with your newfound freedom early on before growing up and deciding to do something with your life.

What do seasonal employees do during the offseason? Work a different job with a different season? I can imagine that a lot of summer jobs are filled by students. But what about things like ski instructors, tax preparers, holiday workers, etc? I assume that most of them can't just not work during the offseason.
