    What do you do?

    There is also the implied cost of your wife not working. She'd need to be fairly gainfully employed for the benefit of having a job to outweigh the cost of child care.

    What do you do?

    I went from ~55 -> 84 and I saw an noticeable increase in my happiness. At 55 I was still having to worry about the mortgage payment and expenses. Now the money is just in my account and I don't have to even think about it. But since I'll probably go from 84 -> 100 in the next year or two I...

    Don't they still have to legally pay out your vacation? Not that I really see that happening.

    What do you do?

    I also keep maximum vacation rollover in my PTO account at work. We're allowed to roll over 240 hours so effectively I keep 6 weeks of salary in the bank there as well. Someone at work really put vacation bank into a new light saying it is one of the best earning investments. You make at...

    Heroes of the Storm

    Would Blizzard be able to feign ignorance somehow? It sounds like they contacted someone who worked on the program and offered him something (prob money) for the source code. Said person willingly handed over the source code. They could say they thought he was the author of it and was...

    What do you do?

    I generally try and keep 2 months salary as liquid money in my checking account. When it starts getting into the 1mo range I start freaking out and drinking my piss.

    Watched the episode last night and holy shit it was bad. In typical TWD fashion something happened at the start (Glenn being a dumpster baby) and then something happened at the end. And nothing happened in the middle outside of retard Spencer doing retard things that had no impact on the...

    Not really thrilled about the subclass idea. One of PoE's coolest parts was that you could do whacky shit with the passive tree. Now it sounds like "If you want to go pet build you have to go Necro Witch."

    College Football 2015-16

    Living in Columbus I generally try and watch the Buckeyes even if I hate everything about the program and the loss was only shocking to me because I thought they'd lose by more. The team has been an absolute shit show ever since Urban had no clue how to pick a starting QB. I'm sure if Cook was...

    College Football 2015-16

    While I'm sure itcouldhappen it probably wouldn't very often in football. It is hard to just have one player get in the zone and drain 3's at an absurd rate like it is in basketball.

    I think I fucked up my left shoulder doing squats. The benchpress motion feels fine (horizontal) but vertically it hurts like fuck. I think I kept the bar too low on my back and it was messing with my shoulder. Its feeling better today than it was yesterday and better than the day previously...

    NFL 2015-2016 Season Thread

    You can read what the Cardinals players have to say about it as well and they can't even come up with a unified story. I don't think we'll ever really know what went on. All we know for sure is the OL on Arizona is literally touching a Bengals player and the Bengals get penalized.

    Fallout 4

    I'm actually doing that build and idiot savant doesn't proc as much as you'd think. I was talking to someone at work and he said each point of INT missing equates to about a 1% better chance (eg; 1% at max int, ~12% at lowest int.) Honestly I've gotten fewer quest turn-in procs on my 2int...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    While loops are pretty easy to write so there isn't a proper exit condition. Since most people are taught to write their for loops that are self-incrementing it is really hard to write an infinite with a for -- though technically possible of course.

    Fallout 4

    No. Like I said previously I got somewhat lucky and a generic raider in the starting museum dropped a bladed tire iron which lasted me for a while until now where I'm using a bladed aluminum bat. I've gotten pretty unlucky that the legendary melee weapon drops so far have been low tier (boards...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    You can "technically" almost always change between for and while loops. Sometimes a while will perform the required logic cleaner than a for and vice versa but rarely will you *have* to write it one way or another.

    Bladed Tire Iron isn't a legendary it just requires L2 blacksmithing to attach a blade to a melee weapon which is I think a level 17 unlock

    Also it seems some of the quest locations are different between playthroughs? For the first settlement quest to clear out some raiders I was sent to a place different than my other two play throuhs. It was also a much easier location.

    Yeah I doubt they'd make the change. GGG knows the hardcore players are the ones that are funding the game and "casualizing" the game isn't a very good route for them.

    If PeyPey is going to play OC on the field he should play OC in the meeting rooms as well. I'm sure Brock showed up for the QB meetings when Peyton was the starter.

    No but it is his job to try and give his team the best chance to win. If that includes sitting down and formulating a game plan with the coaching staff and the starting QB that means attending some fucking meetings.
