But wait. If I had something which cost $75 and I keystoned it, I would price it at $150. That is 100% mark up. Double the wholesale cost. Very standard. So if I price it at $400, isn't that 433% markup?

"Crybaby"?? 🙄 Crybaby is an expression used by bullies. Must people revert to childhood when they get on the internet?

Kind of like the stilts sheetrockers/drywallers wear. They look really fun, but not that steady.

I need the formula to figure out percentage of profit. So say you have an item which costs you $75. You sell it for $400. So your net profit is $325. How do you express the percentage of profit? Is it 325÷75= 433%? Or $400÷75=533%? (I haven't had enough tea to sort this out, and why Google when...

What do you call a vegan burger? A misteak.

So when you all say increase cadence, is it because you think I'm pushing the pedals harder but at a slower pace? I am not. There is no strain on my knees or leg muscles. I read or saw a YouTube somewhere that there are people who naturally pedal at a fast spin, and other people who naturally...

Yes, they definitely feel better at the slower rpms than higher. And I'm not putting any great strain on them.

I've been thinking of making a pinwheel out of 3M reflective stuff. Do you think it would glow like a light if a cars headlights were beaming on it?

Ribble, as a name for a bike company /model?? Doesn't make speed or power or enjoyment spring to mind. Ribble... Dribble... Rubble... Blubber...

My cadence usually averages about 64-67. I adjust the gears and the assist to maintain a consistent cadence. You people spinning around at 75-80 must have better knees than I do. I don't want to overuse my hinges, because I have a theory that like all mechanisms, we only get a certain number of...

Crews will place girders for a new walk-bike bridge over Highway 520 in Seattle. https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/transportation/highway-520-to-close-all-weekend/

What I said was that I would not feel comfortable going out and working that kind of survey. I actually worked the decennial census, during the pandemic, so I have a good idea of how invasive even the simple questions on that survey seem to individuals.

Goggles can be very helpful to keep the eyeballs from freezing, but to keep water off one's glasses, I've have found adding a visor like this to my helmet helps a lot.

No, I'm not on that census list. That a separate census from the decennial census. I worked the 2020 census. It was a very interesting experience. I wrote a series of blogposts on it here: http://alia.link/2020/09/01/i-count-because-we-all-count-introduction/ They tried to recruit me for the one...

It's coming for pretty much all of us. Hang in there. The Covid of 2023 is not the Covid of 2020. My 92 year old mother just had it and my 92 year old MiL had it a few months ago. Used to be, I didn't know anyone who had gotten it, now I know only a few people who haven't had it.

Just looking at that makes my spine hurt 🙄. Better to watch marble rallies:
