I agree that some of the hiring processes out there are pretty nuts! On the other hand, there are people out there that have a CV that looks good on paper but are incompetent. One of my colleagues used the phrase one year of experience ten

I disagree with the author's assessment. I think it depends on how caramelized you want your onions, but there's a quick way to cook them. I cook mine in a stainless steel pan without oil. The sugars will start to caramelize in

Well, openers are the hardest part and it sounds like you're doing that well without the bot. 10-20 messages is a lot! In my view, the goal of an online dating interaction is some light banter before setting up a date. Once a match re

I had a similar (or the same) HL model. It lasted 10-12 years, not sure exactly what the failure mode was, but I think I paid $75 for it. Definitely paid more for drums and toner over the years and I never even bought 1st party drums and

I am on the East Coast and there are probably at least a half dozen places places to play in my area that have ten or more machines. Many bars now have at least a few machines. I'd say there is a large technical community here and pi

This article has a lot of words but it doesn't say much and the title is misleading. tldr; Americans are building large, ugly homes out of cheap materials that have environmental impacts due to heating/cooling costs and distances

Pretty good assessment. I have the potential to be earning a high hourly rate but I don't count my time gardening as a loss because I enjoy it most of the time. I also can grow different things than I can find in the store and that&#

Oh you save a ton of money on produce and it's higher quality . I save seeds and don't have to buy new seed every year. I use woodchips, leaf compost, manure compost and whatever else free I can get close by. My neighbor has a

Exactly, selecting what to put in the video is incredibly time consuming if you have a lot of footage. That's not evening mentioning editing. Every time I watch a section of video I would find things that can be improved. At a certa

I started a YouTube channel at the end of 2017 and published on YouTube on a regular basis for a bit over a year. My best year was about $1,500. I've made $4,600 since I started the channel. At the channel's peak, I was trying to

Bought a 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. The software UX is so bad and the car's systems are so buggy. One example is that if you don't shut the door all the way and shift into drive you get a beeping sound and a big red message

Neat experiment, but I don't see how this is practical. Besides that, the other parts on leather goods usually fail first. I still wear my leather jacket that I bought 20+ years ago when I started riding motorcycles. I've replac
