Yosimite?
Users mod their feeds as per RSS you just unsubscribe from idiots.

Its a bit like the internet itself. Lots of shoddy sites, but no one needs to visit them. Search spam is the exception but let a Google handle that.

What I also notice in Australia is when that music plays the volume slowly tends to zero. I worry that I've lost reception, but when they pick up its fine. I also notice the phone seems to "know" its on hold as there is an audible cue, so perhaps the carrier is deprioritising on hold audio.

Display=none is more appropriate
Great idea. Nice spin on this scene and gets away from the swipe left/right culture to something more interesting.
If they could simply sleep earlier they wouldn't be night owls. Not sure how drink is coreleated with night owlism.
To some extent you can choose the kind of job you want. Maybe the night owl would work at one of those 10-late start ups.

I once has to log time on everything. It was a tempting workaound to log time to the wrong ticket (still one of mine though) so that none of the tickets go over estimate, so I wouldn't be taken to task. I even thought of writing a tool to keep the mapping of real ticket to fake ticket.

Also better to try and get more nebulous work that can carry a higher estimate/ buffer in the first place. And never refactor in the same ticket. Create a new one. But that won't get done so just let it go.

Maybe you don't been need stones once the paths have hardened up. Also better for the joggers if you don't.

I've not read t but guessing its similar to why you shouldn't speak to police without a lawyer even if "I done nothing wrong". Because you will probably say something they can use against you regardless.
Also negotiate rent. See if 2br is available for same price or cheaper.

Excel and data analysis tools will pay dividends here

I googled "cheap traffic" and by shear luck it got positioned on a relevant forum.
Why bother reading the question if the answers are lame. It the answers you want after all. Bravo.

Good tooling can save you a lot of googling mentioned here. Your editor should tell you the required order of arguments, for example.
