    It's actually pretty easy to remove, just go one room at a time because it's messy as hell. Check out some vidya's on the youtubes.

    What year is your house? We are trying to pinpoint what year ours is and the earliest record we have found is from 1913. We found an old aerial picture from a water tower that had our house on it with an old outhouse in the back.

    Anyway, we have asbestos tape around our ducts, the heating and cooling guys said not to worry about it.... but that seems like something I should worry about.

    Also, lucky for us we only have popcorn in my office and that was a pretty recent add on to the house.

    You can learn anything on youtube.

    Me: Oh? Who'd you go with?
    Him: TileGuy0344. He's got a youtube channel.

    I have a touch screen laptop, and I don't think I'd ever turk without one now. Clicking radio buttons is a breeze on surveys. Shit's fantastic and wonderful and highly recommended for turking

    1900 is what all the paperwork said when we bought it. So old as fuuuck. The down stairs looks really nice, especially the kitchen, it's all kind of updated looking. But then you get up stairs and it's like "...oh".

    From my understanding asbestos isn't harmful until it becomes a dust and you breathe it in (such as when removing it from a ceiling), so they have to take all kinds of precautions when removing it and it is really expensive.

    Even better, if you get the stupid pen stylus and those Rekogs come up where you needed to draw circles around peoples faces. STUPID EASY if you have a pen to do it with.

    Yep. Plus I have aging eyes and can't find the right prescription for computer distance, so it's a quick pinch or pull to resize a piece of a page if needed (like images for some data entry/finding stuff).

    Yeah, I regret going to college and paying $60,000 for an Architecture degree when I could have just learned everything on YouTube. My college professors were old as dirt and with the exception of two teachers they didn't know how to use any of the 3D modeling programs so we all spent most of our time on the youtubes learning the software we needed to know to do our assignments.

    Can you get a refund on college?

    Forgot to mention that it also helps with agile development to define default constants at the top, so you can easily start your app with hardcoded "magic numbers" to get things up and running and/or as defaults, but easily transition later in the development process to letting users apply their own magic to the numbers:
    PHP:
    const DEFAULT_PANEL_WIDTH_PX "600";

    function 
    getPanelWidthPx() {
        
    let storedPanelWidth GM_getValue("panelWidth");

        if(
    storedPanelWidth) {return storedPanelWidth;}
        else {return 
    DEFAULT_PANEL_WIDTH_PX;}
    }

    element.style = `width: ${getPanelWidthPx()}px;`;
