Thank you! This seems like an interesting problem space. I'll check out the careers page and apply if I see a good match for my skillset!

Thanks so much, just sent you on an email.

I'd appreciate that! What's the best way to contact you?

The primary reason I want to remain in the Bay Area is because my family and friends are here. I grew up in the Bay Area and can't imagine packing my bags and leaving them behind. …

Yeah that totally makes sense, I understand why potential employers would have concerns. For what its worth, I was at one company for 4 years and about 1 year at my previous compan…

Well, as an unemployed dev currently making 0k, yes, I would take it. Thanks for the suggestion!

I was laid off from my job recently but immediately started applying to new jobs. I'm expanding the job search to include remote positions at companies that might be located outsid…

Have fun dying early.

I remember seeing similar articles. While I don't understand the science behind these findings, my understanding is that smokers are less likely to catch COVID, but if they do, the…

Thanks! Congrats on eating healthier as well! There are so many upsides to preparing your own meals, and you'll find that it can actually be a very therapeutic activity.

Holy shit, this sounds exactly like something I might have written. Feeling exactly the same way right now. I don't have any real advice because I have the same questions and am al…

No. I started college at 21, got hired as a software engineer at 25 in the bay area, and from 25-28 I dated, traveled, partied, and had a fun time. I worked at most 40 hours a week…

Nope. I bought Wahl clippers on eBay for $60 and started cutting my own hair. Each haircut I gave myself improved, and now I'm really happy with the way it turns out. Its almost as…

For those of you who claim to start and finish a book in a weekend, are you spending literally the entire weekend doing nothing by reading? Do you take breaks? Do you speed read? D…

Can I dive straight into Antifragile without having read the author's previous books?

I FaceTime my friends/family every night. We'll prop up our phones on our desks and eat dinner "together" or just mindlessly surf the web and share links to songs and videos. Somet…
