    Damn. I get already-cooked meals delivered for $13/each on Macro Plate's high protein plan. And the meals are really good. Lots of vegetables.

    Me too. I've been going to physical therapy for 2.5 years now, and I really love it. Unfortunately it would take me 7 years of schooling, and they make significantly less than a so…

    I miss working in an environment like this. I was actually surprised to find so much negative feedback in the comments. I think a detail getting glossed over is that the tone needs…

    I hit a challenge that had me stumped, and I had to ask a coworker for help. It turned out to be legitimately difficult. Now we were both stumped. We got some coffee, doubled down,…

    I got a job in Santa Monica, while living in Long Beach. Commute was painful at 45-60 min, and I only had to be at work by 10:30. I moved into a 1BR for $1500 in nearby Culver City…

    Could you expand on that? I've snubbed contracting gigs in the past because I enjoy the often very generous healthcare plans at tech companies.

    Really?? Do you know if they'll make it wireless? I love my Advantage. My only wishes are that it would be wireless and have room for Cmd, Ctrl, and Alt on both sides.

    Heh, there's a lot to cover. First of all, just go to physical therapy if you have any pain. Even if you know the rehab exercises, doing them with perfect form will be very challen…

    That's... moderately comforting. I recently started using Mint and it's proving very helpful for tracking my spending and budgets. It's really worrying having to hand over my bank …

    I'm using Zenhub at my current company. I preferred Pivotal Tracker, which we used at my last company. It just feels kind of janky overloading Github's website. TBH, though, I stru…

    "who is hiring" actually had some of the best quality job posts I encountered in my job search. I didn't try posting in "who wants to be hired."
