I'm confused. What's wrong with LaTeX?

I've heard some of this before. To me it is a little confusing since most areas in Minneapolis and the inner ring suburbs are expensive compared to the further suburbs.

My experience of the suburbs is different from yours.

That's pretty harsh.

We wanted to move into S. Minneapolis but couldn't justify the high cost. Instead we ended up in the (far) suburbs.

Sorry you were downvoted. I gave you an upvote before my initial response.

You may have been downvoted because your response may have seemed a little snarky to some. While your suggestions make sense they are not necessarily practicable or economically feasible in all cases. People are pretty sensitive when it comes to the health their children and wants what's best even when they cannot provide it.

Infants put everything in their mouths. They may be poisoned before they understand.

I think it is through inhalation and ingestion. Children at at greatest risk. Even dust caused by renovation puts children at risk.

That would be about 80E3 floppys. Assuming a transfer rate of 500kbyte/second the peak data rate for the array would be 40E9 byte/second!

Catch-22

Maybe they can burn the empty bottles?

If true that is a minor factor compared to differences in birth control use, abortion rate and mother's age at first child.

"(To be fair, it was enchanted. But still, Edmund. Still.)"

Yes. The enchantment would strongly affect Edmund. I am surprised the article author thinks this a trifle.

Maybe I read more into it, but I thought enchantment was also involved?

(My imagining was of some light chocolate treat... the kind that melts in your mouth and is almost impossible to overeat.)

I cannot say whether this is the right choice for others.

An off grid, self reliant lifestyle is very attractive to me. This is my counter argument for myself.

Right on. When considering lifestyle choices I ask myself how many people could live the same way. If it turns out to be a small minority before collapse, I reject it as a path for myself. To me off grid lifestyle seems a retreat from the goods of society without a commensurate benefit to self and others. As an art movement or experiment I say fine.

Vinyl makes more sense to me. I monkeyed around with cassettes for a little while but type II always sounded muted. Never played with type IV. Also, my older cassettes seemed to degrade. Even older commercial tapes sounded bad with time.

Thanks for your post. You've inspired me to write some code for similar problems!

Really!?! That seems pretty low. Is there a different rate if you live in your house? Even though I don't like property taxes I think that without fewer individuals would own their house in the US since corporate ownership of houses would have a lower cost.

Sounds like fun.

Not trying to be nosy but did you make the move with children? (How did you help them adjust?)

You don't mention the principal part of the mortgage payment and the tax benefit of mortgage interest and property tax.

You might not be paying much more than rent.

Advice I give is to buy a house once the cost of owning the house is lower than rent. What I learned the hard way is to not buy more than you need.

I think this is true for basic maintenance. Repairing something broken or about to cause problems like a roof is necessary. Beyond that I've noticed that house price seems to depend more on location than overall condition. There doesn't seem much financial incentive for homeowners to update their house.

In addition to intelligence I think humor has to with rapport. A good comedian will change his jokes and delivery based on audience.

Rent will increase to reflect that change.

Do these contain lead? I wonder if this is good for export.

Additionally, this looks like a plastic film. Don't most plastics break down with exposure to the sun. I wonder what the service life would be.

Not trying to be negative. I would really love cheap solar panels.

Good question. From my perspective it was very safe though I'm neither small nor cute.

I had spent over a month in Singapore for work around 2010 and really enjoyed it. Now married with young kids I wonder how things would be. Anyone have any experience with this? I am wondering with respect to prejudice and safety. My wife and kids are fair skinned blondes.

Being in debt limits your freedom. We all need to provide for our well being but why take on more than is necessary?

How are Warsaw and Krakov for families with children?

Thumbs up.

Too many people take on unnecessary debt (big house, new cars, toys, ...) It seems like many are at peace with their debt.

Going into debt for anything more than a modest house (rather than paying rent) doesn't make sense to me.

Not trying to offend... but why do these teachers work for so little? This seems like an oversupply scenario. There has to be some other factor present.
