re: New California Poll: Biden Dropping Like A Rock

California will go for the left most candidate in the primary, no surprise Sanders and Warren are leading the pack.
But when the time comes, they'll vote in lockstep for whoever has a D next to their name. Polling them is a futile effort.

re: Poll: Majority of Republicans think Trump is a better president than Lincoln
Posted by CoachMoorGut on 11/30/19 at 6:54 am
Some interesting things hidden in that table.
Republicans constituted less than 30% of the sample size.
603 of the responders were from the South, 338 from the West, and less than 300 from the North or East.
Despite sampling 512 Democrats only 471 in the poll claimed to vote for Hilary in 16. Despite only having 410 Republican voters 437 claimed voting for Trump.
76% of the poll were registered voters, but only 64% mentioned voting Hilary or Trump.
Likely implications:
Donald Trump being considered better than Lincoln is probably overstated in this poll due to small sample size and overrepresented Southerners.
Democrats had poor turnout in 2016, and probably didn't have a ton of Independent appeal.
More people voted for Trump than said they were Republican. By definition he was pulling in Independent voters, and likely had good Republican turnout.
The disparity in registered voters to actual voters implies people either stayed home for the polls or didn't want to state who they voted for. Given the D and I slant of this poll, both of these are likely positive for Trump.
Mitigating Factor:
1500 is a shite sample size for a political poll.

My physics teacher in high school. I think he's in his 60's now. He was engaged in his late twenties but his fiance was murdered and he just never got over it.
Was a great teacher, great guy. Pity him every once in a while.

re: Professor has missed 15 days this semester
Posted by CoachMoorGut on 11/9/19 at 9:10 am
This honestly should have been dealt with earlier, but you still have a little time if you move now. Start with your advisor, if you have one, then go to the chair if nothing happens in three days, then to the dean if nothing happens in another three days.
Bring documentation of every absence you can. Be firm but not hostile. Subtly bring up the retaliation point. Let them know you'll be in a bind with the VA.
Most importantly, if you can, get other students to talk to the chair/dean as well. One student can be explained away, but if you can 4 or 5 people to say they're having issues due to absenteeism then it becomes much harder for the administration to ignore.

Good 'ole Baw likes whiskey. Good 'ole Baw works as a welder. Good 'ole Baw takes a job with a 20% raise, but bourbon becomes illegal. Single malt scotch becomes the only whiskey on the market. Good 'ole Baw has a much better life, but can't afford to drink whiskey anymore.

My position is that most people I deal with live off less income than they do during working years so they are in lower bracket.
The average retired American relies more on social security than retirement savings. If you ask most when they began planning for retirement they'd answer in their 50's.
Most people absolutely live on less, but if anyone starts planning for retirement in their 20's or 30's it's entirely possible to retire with a higher salary especially if you have a few years without raises.
The Roth isn't a no brainer, but it's definitely worth every intelligent investors consideration.
re: Nick Saban: "In 20 years from now the players will get asked their records vs. Tn
Posted by CoachMoorGut on 10/17/19 at 7:28 am
No they won't.
Anyone that played for Saban will be asked how many rings they won, not how many times they beat Tennessee.
Tennessee literally hasn't beaten Alabama since Saban has been there.
This is a terrible take.
