is there not a mistake in this explanation? when he writes "Similar to (A) and (B), we can move on as soon as we recognize that (C) has costs outweighing the benefits." even though right above he writes "While (B) illustrates the principle of cost-benefit, it lands on the benefits outweighing the costs." am i missing something here?
Wait but how is "The time that it takes to have a pizza delivered may be longer than it takes to cook a complete dinner." not an example of the cost outweighing the benefit? What am I missing? #help #help
JY says it's because we only take into account time? Huh
TIL that screensavers once had a functional purpose other than just looking nice. Can't lie, this revelation lost me at least 5 seconds of time from the shock!
So in this situation, is it important that the right answer choice specifically determine that costs outweigh the benefits? Maybe I misinterpreted, but didn't the overview Parallel lessons state that "whether the concepts are expressed in the positive or negative" isn't important? (This is regarding why B cannot be correct)
I feel like on this question you really had to pay attention grammar not just structure to get it right. I did not get it until I really took time to look at it in Blind Review,
Any of the older non-traditional students (30s and up) have a flashback to the 90s Mac computer screensavers of the toasters with wings flying across your face on the computer screens? lol
The principle i abstracted was that "some things that intend to bring about benefits may carry unforeseen costs that override such benefits"

I am liking these much more than the other parallel questions.
Chat is this parallel parking?

can someone explain the difference between cost-benefit analysis and the principle of trade-offs?
It took me 30 seconds longer to get this correct because I couldn't understand what "customer goodwill" meant in this context, lol.

Ya’ll ever tried the 7Sage phone app? Just tried doing this question on my phone and almost gave up because everything was moving all around.
#feedback the phone app lay out is all funky. Could it be simplified to fit better on a phone screen?
u literalllllyyy have to pay for it. so true. i laughed,
In shock I am missing all these principle questions
I am struggling with these :/

principle: don't invest in something if it costs more than what you can save! easy peasy
Anyone else just now realizing that screensavers actually have a purpose and are not just images 'saved' to a screen?
