Every time in the last 5 years that I drive by Evernote Building on the 101 - I was shocked it was still in business. With Apple Notes chipping away at its core, and stiff competition from Notion - how long could it survive?

Friends I know who previously worked on crypto side projects are suddenly LLM experts.
Are you managed by project manager?
I've noticed a trend in tech where the Project Manager's role keeps expanding. It feels like its reached a tipping point where they are actually calling shots technical. They are making decisions an Engineering manager should otherwise make. Have you noticed this trend? How do you manage your project manager? What does this role do at your company? Should we get rid of this role?
This is a big release. Lots of new packages. The language is changing

Accuracy, please.
Florida has been both completely submerged and prior to the ice age had much much more coast line. If you dig anywhere in Florida you can find evidence of it being the sea floor.

Do you have more information on CDC?
How is your job search going?
I'm trying to gauge whether the job market is improving - it seems to me that it is. If you've been affected by a layoff, how is your job search coming along? What are your feelings about it?
How do you fake your remote location?
I'd like to have a different IP address, how do you do this from a work computer? I'm using tools like git, ssh - and beyond running a VPN are there other considerations?

My grandpa built his home and it was a nightmare. Contractors kept going cheap, he had to watch over them, cost overruns, delays, etc. He probably has a better home than one could ever buy, but I don't have that kind of time or money.

Not a bad time to buy a farm. Prices are coming down; my yield is a little bit different 1/3 of it is wooded/water - but its probably close to 2% plus tax benefits.

I just can't tolerate apartment life any longer. I have 2 dogs. They won't live forever, they need a yard. I need stability. Also a home is not an investment, its a liability. I also want a place I own, that I can have paid off. Its a long term decision.
I'm also willing to admit I can miss the bottom price. I could save 15% and wait a year?

I need a place to live man. I can't wait forever for prices to come down, I've owned a home before, and even though rates suck, now is a better time for sure. It feels like I can shop.

Ah, you hit on it. That is the attitude! Problem is everyone has that entitlement. Trillions and trillions of claims.

It is impossible to balance a budget with 130% debt to GDP. We crossed the event horizon, every country that has ever crossed this (save Japan which is doing horrible now) has defaulted through very high inflation or out of control deflation [1].
