It'd give me whiteboard sessions back with my coworkers. The non-productivity boosting feeling of hanging out in the same room. The productivity boosting of having as many displays wherever I want them.

As a guy who's been running stuff with docker-compose and is learning k8s, the learning curve for k8s is a cliff. Every single layer of the stack gets added complexity.

Mr Money Mustache was a life changing blog for me. I don't think that's a hyperbole. I saved way more money after internalizing that blog's message than I would have otherwise.

I went hard on this for 8 or 9 years for the start of my career. Now with a kid and a house FIRE is on the back burner, but I still saved a ton of money. If I were to never save another cent and just rely on growth on what I have, I'

You could look for regularity of transactions and build a pattern. It would be like a Tor timing attack. You also can look and probably get intel that the BTC is coming from large Monero transactions and get AML heat on you.

The composition of airborne particles depends highly on what size you're measuring. The stuff you see when you kick the carpet is the "big" stuff like cotton breaking down.

Expectation management and effort to implement in your car as well. Buying a 7k "full self driving option" that's seamlessly integrated from the factory vs having to hack into your wiring to install a glorified phone.
