I grew up in a mixed pet family. My dad loves cats; my mom dogs. It was exactly the way you describe it, too. I get why people adore cats and dogs both, but they do draw different personalities.
Yes, you can't expect an animal that basically tamed itself to respect your boundaries, and that's why dog people don't like them. They jump on the counter or try to break your coffee cup if it's too close to the edge of the table.
But overwhelmingly, in my experience as a cat shelter volunteer, people who have owned catsand do not like them feel that way, not because Mittens got overstimulated and scratched them once, but because they cannot cope with their boundaries being disrespected all the time. It isn't the cats fault, true. It's just an animal acting the way it evolved to act--but let's try to be understanding about why many people struggle with them as pets.
It really does take a certain personality to be okay with living with a cat.
I like cats, but this argument is dumb. The people I know who don't like cats don't like them precisely because cats don't respect boundaries or consent the way dogs do.
I have no idea. I know the city animal control has it now. She is trying to get him released, though.
A friend of my wife and I got a pit bull a couple months ago. She was going on and on about how sweet he is and how he would never hurt anyone. Last week, it mauled her roommate. Nearly took his hand off while he was changing into his work clothes. His career is likely over and she's still defending the dog.
Probably the allegations she had an affair with Trump aide Corey Lewandowski. As we all know, family values is when you cheat on your husband.
It could take decades longer than even that. America has experienced mind-boggling collapse in just 4 months. The damage to its reputation will take an entire restructuring of the powers of the executive branch to overcome. I mean, who wants to make a deal with an admin, when every 4 years it can go back on its word?
We still have at least 43 more months to look forward to. The bottom hasn't even begun to drop.
So I should just host it with an IP address instead of using the domain?
I hadn't thought to do that, at least not for anything other than short lived internal-network-only projects and tests. An IT guy in the company I work for advised me to just get a domain and host with it/subdomains to make it easier to manage if I wanted to host multiple services.
I think you meant to reply to me! I actually do need it to be accessible externally, via a VPN or other means.
Google requires HSTS preload for all of their domains. Charleston Road Registry (their subsidiary), enforces this by adding the TLD to the HSTS preload list.
Google is the registry that owns the rights to the TLD. They require all of the domains they control to have HSTS preload enabled.
Sorry, but value is overwhelmingly better than growth-weighted equities. It's not even close. We are talking about value doing 4.4% a year better on average for the past 98 years. Nobody should weight in growth for their retirement portfolio.
And value doesn't have anything to do with dividends. Plenty of growth stocks hand those out like candy. It's about fundamental value versus the market value of the stock. Value weighted funds are about catching value premiums from undervalued equities. Dimensional and Avantis make their bread and butter doing that.
Dividends are frankly, a total waste of time. They come from the value of the equity. It's not free money. The stock price is reduced to give it to you. Just sell what you need to meet your goals or go with retirement income funds which actually pay interest and still hold equities (and maybe add ultra short bond funds in if you want). That way you can control it your disbursements better.
Most TDFs are designed for those kinds of use cases for a reason.
