I suggest taking the door off, removing all the trims, and reframe the door. Cover the exterior, foam seal all the gaps, wrap the exterior, moisture barrier the interior, then drywall interior. Then rehung the door, with added weather stripping. Like what you would have done if you replace the door with one that is bigger or smaller. It’ll be similar steps.

We did our drain line by digging up everything and trenched down. Our run was almost 40’ (forgot) so there was quite a bit of grading we needed to do. The grade was held up by gravel, 4” drain pipe (ours have holes to drain along the way, not just the down spout), fabric wrap to prevent clogging, gravel topped, then soil back fill, then everything went back on top.

Is it a public sidewalk or your own private one?

Worry? No. Stupid institutions that do stupid things should fail.

Are you in a climate that freezes? If so, you posts should be at least a couple of feet below frost line.

This is an awesome visual!

Interesting. Population density over county geographical size seems to be an interesting axis. I wonder how that correlates with the presence/absence of large cities. Normally the density of population is significantly more dramatic with cities. I wonder if the underlying x-axis narrative can be remapped to “counties with big cities”.

Interesting find. Thank you for sharing.

Not seeing any comment…

Not surprised at U.S. and the likes… but what’s happening in Nigeria?

That’s like a completely false simplification. Employment has a large number of factors that affect the supply and demand. Proximity to the work location affects available workers. Skill/experience affects available workers. Need for income affects tolerances in pay gap. Lack of choices affects tolerances in pay gap. Just to name a few.

Seems to have a build in bias. The lower the pay, the lesser the gap. What if the pay is adjusted to some sort of average-standard deviation type representation?

I bet he looks in the mirror and actually believes everything he says.

I mean. It’ll be worst if you try to cut it and ended up shattering it, right?

That’s an interesting way to present the data.

First thing popped into my head is how railways have slope limit both uphill and downhill. To traverse a slope will require way more rails to loop and/or zigzags. So rails in mountainous region will have significantly more miles to cover the same distance between two points than in a flat region. I wonder if there’s enough data to change the measure from plain miles to actual distance covered. That would make an interesting comparison.

Nope, there’s no fix to porcelain toilet crack. It needs to be replaced.

While that is true biologically, in practice, kids will not learn when they are not ready, not in the right environment, not being taught correctly, not having the right teachers. Forcing everyone into a mold never worked and never will. That is THE biggest problem in our education system and education theory.

My house was built in the 70s, the studs were 24" on center.

K-12 percentage? That's a useless number.

Younger kids are learning English to start. Those will mostly be 0%. Older kids, depending on the State, DoE might even have foreign language requirements. In those states, it will be 100% for that age bracket. Without segmenting with those circumstances in mind, these numbers are useless.

One thing I don’t like about these stats is that it seems to want people to conclude direct cause and effect when everything (politics, policies, economics, human behaviors, etc.) are so complicated and intertwined, not to mention the effect of governmental policies is often delayed for years before it is known.

There’s no set time. It depends on what got flooded and what the damage is. You should talk to your insurance company ASAP and have them bring in a remediation team.

Make it some projects for the kids in the school. Do it and you get an A type thing. It’ll be fixed within a month.

Brick might be sketchy as it relies on the plugs.

What about hanging the sound bar off of the TV mount? I hanged mine off the VESA plate so that it turns with the TV.

How heavy a sound bar? If you can screw into stud, it should be fine.

On the other hand, what about that wood (veneer?) thing across? Can that hold weight? A couple of Z brackets would let you hang off of that?

Interesting… do people really get that much sleep?

So the most popular but not really cuz the author decided to censor whatever s/he wants?

In this day and age of extremism driven by internet bubbles, people are still doing it.
