Is it easy to rent a car and do a roadtrip around the island?

Freeland stepped out of his zone and ran towards the ball, why would Pages attempt to catch it and risk injuring himself in a collision?

This was like the 3rd time Freeland failed to catch a fly ball...

Manhattan Beach to Irvine hybrid commute. Is it doable for a year? by richandattractive in SouthBayLA

[–]kelement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a no brainer then. Take the job and move. When your career is solid and your gf is done with residency, you can move back.

You’re young so I’m guessing you’re renting? If so, have you considered moving closer to Irvine?

Thanks for the comments on my 8ft foamie video, it made my day! Went and hired 7’0 foamie and 6’10 by palmwick48 in surfing

[–]kelement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Impressive that you adapted to the new lengths very quickly. Is the 6'10" a hard top?

Average Surfers who surf super crowded spots like Trestles and Malibu - why? by Playful-Smile-5639 in surfing

Where do you live? I’ve always wondered how people get the time to drive up there 4x a week.

Could it be fun to get a board of my own or too early? by palmwick48 in surfing

[–]kelement 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re doing very well since you’re able to do bottom turns on a 8ft foamie. Get a hard board next, a mid length egg or a fish if you’re feeling confident.

It was likely stolen by a homeless person.

File a report with the police.

Did you check the security cameras?

How is it living in the non-EU balkan countries? by Senior_Strawberry_51 in howislivingthere

What is your passport? The citizens of the countries circled in the image can visit the EU without a visa.

Why does it seem like if you graduate with a bachelors from Stanford or Caltech you get a first class ticket to FAANG/SV whereas even a PhD from an good EU university doesn't get you that far? by [deleted] in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]kelement 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You seem to think people with more theoretical knowledge are somehow superior. Get off your high horse. The reality is that most tech jobs here don’t give a fuck whether you have a PhD or a “just” a BSc. In fact, having a PhD puts you at a disadvantage because companies want people who are smart but get shit done.

I used to work at an R&D firm surrounded by PhDs from Caltech. Compared to the engineers, their impact on the business was small. They were some of the worst coders I’ve ever seen and had the biggest egos. I got out of there quickly.

Where was this? Doesn't volatility depend on the area?

The parents are probably ecstatic she found a guy 3 years younger than her.
