I've seen this exact behaviour with non-tech friends in 20s-30s people. You have it exactly right. There's a stigma to being a green bubble. It's stupid, but whatever. If you're going to be my friend, first things first:

Sorry, I did miss that. It is unfortunate your employers are not supportive of your career ambitions. I've watched many engineers become managers at PlanGrid, so I know it is possible :)

Doing anything in san francisco underground is a huge PITA. By nature, this consumes a lot of money, time, and expense. As soon as you start digging underground you find a whole litany of old pipes, wires, mains, etc that do not appear on a

This is good. A different approach would be to implement hackernew's noprocrast filters, which I quite like. It's nice to have something meter your usage with gaps rather than allowing you to frequently visit the site and prevent

Conversely, it actually serves as a reminder for you to prioritize the work rather than coming across and old todo as a happenchance, when you're not in the frame of mind or have the time to fix it. Yes, it's tedium. But it's

Not sure why you're being downvoted. Emerging research suggests that aerosolized SARS-Cov2 can stay active for hours. Droplets (e.g. projectile saliva or mucus) fall out of the air quickly, but this is different. Here's a source:
