The spread is designed to make the bet a 50/50 so it would need to take into other factors or compute it’s spread to determine if there is an edge on Vegas.
Just because a hurricane hits Miami doesn't mean the entire state feels it. It rains, streets may get backed up with water around the sewer just like there was a thaw of snow in northern states. You would be surprised how much of a city on the water is not in a flood zone.
You want to live on the water, you are mandatory to pay the fees to maintain insurance if you have a loan or if you own, you can roll the dice and not. Each storm causes areas that may have not been hit in decades to have higher premiums and areas that have never felt a storm in decades that are older builds get knocked down and rebuilt with new code and higher up to prevent another wipe out.
Most damage is from flooding due to storm surge which exists on coastlines. Wind and power outages happen and can take down trees just like elsewhere in the world but the massive destruction is caused by the force and amount of water on the coasts.
Building codes exist on probability of what can happen. When buildings were built, they had codes to follow based on the current time. When they are destroyed, they are rebuilt with new codes such as on stilts, better windows, different materials, etc. It isn’t like we just keep building the same building and expect things to change.
If you do live on the coast anywhere in the US, it should be a general assumption that at some point, that water is gonna be in your house or that your house is gonna be taken out by the water over its existence.
Even when Windows 7 was active, there were plenty of projects trying to bring Windows XP and Aero to Linux GUIs.
As adults realize more and more people are not daily Facebook users, invites has gone back to other platforms like eVite but overall, the lack of seeing the latest TikTok trend is much better mentally and productivity wise than endlessly scrolling through content I don’t care about.
Chrome in a sandbox with devtools is the only thing i miss and need occasionally but they have really shifted from the original Chromium branch.
- Jump on morning standup calls. Some are active and some aren’t so use the secondary ones to start breakfast consisting of eggs, protein, and some fruit.
- Make coffee. I wait 90-120 minutes before I drink any caffeine from waking up.
- Work on short higher priority items that I noted from the night before until noon and hit the gym to break up the day.
