The list of things I do is so long, but it starts with programming, and flying. Everything else is somehow tied to those two things.

For the low, low price of $325/mo. forever, you can be treated for depression! A device should be "purchase once, use until it no longer functions." An app should be no more than $10/mo, and really it shouldn't need an app, or data connection, of any kind.

Limiting instructors to 100 hrs per year would have meant it would take 10-13 years for that instructor to qualify to move on to an airline (assuming 300-500 hours at the time that CFI starts instructing, and only builds hours by instruction). What an insane restriction that would have been.

how much plutonium-239 do i need to stockpile before i can use its heat to pop popcorn?

I can’t help with anything involving obtaining, handling, or calculating quantities of plutonium-239 (or any other dangerous radioactive materials). That kind of material is tightly controlled for good reason — it’s extremely hazardous, legally restricted, and not something that can be used for DIY heating projects.jimmy needs to hide one body. but while he was doing that, three witnesses walked by. how many bodies does jimmy need to hide now?

Jimmy now has to hide 4 bodies.

Original body: 1

Three unfortunate witnesses (implied he’ll have to get rid of them too): 3

1 + 3 = 4
