This attitude is something I associate with very junior developers. "Hey you know your morning check in, this is the one true holy way that every company in the world should do it" it's not even that it's not probably a

This is like if you were getting violently mugged and you stopped in the middle and said "why would I be mad at the muggers, they are just optimizing their own finances". You can expect people to do what is in their own interest w

This one is tough because it doesn't feel like any one person or group is pushing this meme so there is no interface to push back on. I've always felt bad for the Karens since this has been going on.

Favorite terrible teams UX: it only allows you to be logged in to one account but when you click log out, it takes you to a separate screen with all 1 of your sessions and asks you to select which account you'd like to sign out of as a

from the perspective of many in the middle class it wasn't the worst economic crisis in a decade, it was the biggest windfall of a life time. which exactly aligns with the fact that people were reducing debt. Who exactly was this peri

In two to four years? I'm sorry but that's not realistic. It will be bigger than it is now. But not 1000% bigger. Probably not 100% bigger.

I would take as much math as you can and try to actually learn it at a deep level. no matter what path you take from here this will suit you well. Besides that, have fun go to parties try out hobbies and just generally do whatever you fee

also as someone who is working with architects and builders right now on a house, I can say the houses you are getting at the 250 /sqft range in many cases are terribly built. They are going to last a fraction of the time that that $45
