I can’t live in Indiana because the entire state is racist. This should be obvious. Edit: /s for those who need it

I haven’t seen most of those listed on job postings whereas I’ve seen seemingly dozens of frontend frameworks on various postings.

This seems to be common among those who have lost money. Rather than picking up and moving on, they make it their life’s mission to just attack whatever they feel “wronged” them.

Whenever I go back to the Midwest to visit family, I always feel very wealthy given just how much cheaper everything is. Leave the coffee shop literally spending half as much and it’s like “holy cow this is great!” Obviously, a person livin

That’s neat, but the USA has garbage public transport. Many towns just have none. I think it’s unreasonable to expect people to use a resource that just isn’t there in most cases.

I worked with a guy who stayed with a company through “thick and thin.” Then when it was a good move for the company, they laid him off. He asked HR if they could help him find a new position within the company and their response was “HR is

I would personally think of “the elite” as people making millions a year and flying in private jets. Not people leveraged out of their minds so they can drive a new Tahoe and have Starbucks every morning. I think of “elite” people as those

While I agree with you overall, I hope you aren’t saying that someone in the top 10% of incomes is “elite.”

I remember watching my mom ration her insulin as a kid. As an adult making solid money, I still try to be generally frugal and it’s frustrating to see people that (statistically) make far less than me driving much nicer cars and wearing nic

I’m not living paycheck-to-paycheck, but it’s easy to see how that can still happen. Even in a relatively low COL area (comparing a town like Huntsville or Fort Worth to Seattle or San Fran), it’s easy to plow through a bunch of money betwe

I don’t feel it’s fair to criticize someone explaining why they live the way they do when you where the first to criticize said group: >>The communities that hand-wring the most about predators and risks to children tend to be middle

This. There will be massive consequences for those holding commercial real estate if companies stop paying those insane rents. Also, cities will suffer (at least in the short-term) if property taxes drop from those properties losing value.

There’s certainly an element of ignorance in their comment, but there’s also some truth. I am originally from a rural area in the Midwest USA. I know a statistically significant number of people from high school and college who purposely mo

I am super grateful for QR codes to see a menu and pay my bill, but I will not dine at any establishment that makes having an special app/account a requirement.

Less than $200k? Might as well off yourself. Just kidding. It shouldn’t need to be said, but don’t actually off yourself.

It’s sad, but I don’t see the world getting better anytime soon. I am trying to earn and invest as much as I can for the sake of my children and grandchildren. I hope I’m wrong, but I feel like they will be financially devastated otherwise.

This is likely the best answer (at least in the short term).

Free daycare could get me back in an office. That would be a huge financial perk.

While I mostly agree, I don’t like the idea of HR having access to anything of mine that is not work related.

It seems like they were forcing themselves for the sake of science, but idk.

I feel like there’s a middle ground to be had here. You obviously don’t want to be over leveraged, but I don’t think a small amount of debt is inherently bad. I have a mortgage and some student debt, but they are a modest amount of my house

I took a cruise with a large group of friends once. We all had the drink package and prepaid gratuities, but we tipped extra for all of our drinks at the two bars that were our favorites. For only an extra $0.50/drink, I was getting 2-

Any given company has the right to make their employees work in an office, but they better be prepared for the consequences of that decision. They are either going to lose out on talent or they are going to lose out on the cost of said tale

That’s true, but I’d guess that there are a lot of users that exclusively use the iOS app.

I have strategically jumped to gain skills and a higher salary. My current job is, to me, a unicorn and I plan on staying put for a while (even if there wasn’t an equity component). I think I have mostly hit the ceiling for my years of expe

It’s not the color itself that matters. It’s the consequences of seeing said bubble. It could be purple. The point is that these nice features such as liking a message or FaceTiming the group easily are now gone. I don’t avoid Android users

My employer paid for mine. It was an excellent boost early in my career, but it doesn’t matter at all right now. I don’t regret getting it, but I’m more hesitant to suggest a masters to fellow software engineers.

I feel like the first line is kind of a little hyperbolic. I know that unions gave us a lot of the luxuries we take for granted today and I will state once again, for the record, that I am pro-union. I’m just saying that they are in a posit
