Just a heads-up, there are activity reports that can be run that will readily show this.

I'm Asian and live in rural Oregon.

This hurts.

I was reluctant to jump on the Kagi bandwagon, but I'm now a week in and genuinely enjoying it.

Before, I'd have to search things across Google/Bing/AskJeeves a few times to finally arrive at an answer - I've yet to leave Kagi this last week.

The different AI engines you can also use and the customization for styling are pretty darn good, too. I'm now using it as my dedicated search on all my android phones, my laptop, and my desktop. Time will tell if things hold up, but so far so good.

Only con so far is that it's sometimes slow to provide results. It isn't devastating, but it's like a 5 second delay which "feels" slow, but it's whatever.

Hahaha.

1. Fuck off

2. A 50mi commute where I am is going to be ~2 hours each way due to traffic. That's 4hrs each day of lost life which, if I had to do, I'd demand to be compensated for. At even a low 225 days a year that's 900 hours of time at tech-level per hour pay.

3. There are no collaboration benefits. My Product Manager friend and I disagree on this greatly - but I'm still confident from an engineering standpoint that there is no material value add to in-person meetings that cannot be realized remotely with simple concessions (if anything at all).

4. There are a significant increase in distractions, long lunches, arriving late, leaving early (to name a few) = significant decrease in productivity / output.

5. A lot of tech places where I am that are 40-50 miles away will require me to pay for parking. Screw that.

RTO can die. Commercial landlords can burn for all I care. I do feel bad for neighboring small businesses that are negatively impacted by the loss of foot traffic - but if my area is at all indicative, many of them just left the city and went suburban or rural and are just as successful with lower rents.

Do you add it upon eating or during the boil?

I've yet to master proper green onion quantity, any tips?

Also do you use a mix of the harder white part and the green?

When GM killed the Bolt, I tried to buy one at two different dealerships near me. One wanted a $10k premium over MSRP and the other wanted $8k.

They also both had a non-negotiable "security" etching added and wheel protection whatever that I had to pay for.

It isn't that I didn't want one, it's that your dealerships fucked it up.

Honestly, may have settled for MSRP, but they wouldn't budge. Fuck off.

I really like that car crash analogy or whatever you want to call it. It isn't like sudden positive changes in inflation or job numbers magically fixes QOL for people overnight. It can take weeks...months, maybe even years (maybe even never?)

I have no movies, photos, or video games. I do have a lot of work-related things like cloned repos and stuff like Visual Studio and SQL Server.

You want hoarder...my friend has over 120 TB in rack mount storage in his garage across multiple systems and NAS devices. It's insane.

HAHAHA.

I'm loving my Galaxy Tab 9 Ultra. It's sturdy, can go in the shower (I don't normally but I wanted to test it), has great multi-window features, has Dex which is also sometimes useful, is snappy, and I can basically sideload whatever I want.
