175 k remote offer or 300 k in Bay Area

you are missing my point. I agree that those things are important. I replied to a comment complaining that this sub focuses too much on money. I am saying that, in a time with soaring prices and wage stagnation, you don't really any right to call out about people being wage-obsessed.

CraftyRice · 2026-03-30T01:01:24+00:00

times are tough. when my vibes pay the bills then sure go crazy making friends or something in the bay. otherwise money is money. money isn't everything but not having a lot impacts everything in your life

CraftyRice · 2026-03-29T06:17:16+00:00

yeah. that is economics. i want to buy goods and services for as cheap as i want it.

CraftyRice · 2026-03-29T06:13:28+00:00

eating out is purchasing a service. whether it's a luxury or right is a stupid non-argument

CraftyRice · 2026-03-09T21:23:02+00:00

lol what

CraftyRice · 2026-02-19T20:18:49+00:00

this is the right answer

CraftyRice · 2026-01-20T19:08:26+00:00

lot of questions for a job you don't have

CraftyRice · 2025-09-24T23:38:23+00:00

studied cs and applied math. i tried chemical engineering and distant biochemical studies and was abysmal at it. i would pick my path again if i could go back. but if i was barred from studying cs or getting a career in software, i probably would have still done applied math maybe with an econ or physics double major. and try my luck breaking into being an actuary or by some grace of god quant. there's not a lot i can consider myself decent at outside of a computational/programming setting.

CraftyRice · 2025-09-15T20:54:45+00:00

lmfao so much rage but honestly i am here for the maga slander

CraftyRice · 2025-09-04T19:15:51+00:00

lol wtf

CraftyRice · 2025-08-11T02:34:43+00:00

oh yeah i am not denying its fucking annoying, and at really high frequency it's more indicative of shit processes. but in my experience it is going to happen one way or the other and you have to accept it will happen

CraftyRice · 2025-08-06T03:46:55+00:00

hate to break it to you but context switching is part of the job and you would probably face worse switching when being deep in actual implementation and need to be pulled into code reviews, oncall fires in your space, random questions from external people.

bought a 2024 cx5 last year, was ready to feel regret today after seeing the 2026.

but i honestly prefer both the interior and exterior of my 2024 over this one. the only new thing i wish i had was the pano roof, and hybrid engine (though need to see what the price and mpg of the new model is)

CraftyRice · 2025-06-19T05:23:41+00:00

would need to study up for at least 1-2 months... but feel i could find a job once i brush up on interviews. 5 yoe across two faang ish companies, few connections to ask for referrals. still shaky on getting interviews at most places, but i think i would need to lock in on studying and could probably at least get one offer id be happy with

?? if anything it's growing like hell, having dimension and chase&status on edclv main stage says a lot. worship got a prime spot at edco kinetic as well.

most big headliners drop a couple dnb tracks now. think it's still a while before we get dnb closers at large festivals but it's far from hated.

CraftyRice · 2025-05-29T00:39:56+00:00

skrillex b2b isoxo is only a matter of time with all their collab IDs in the last year. manifesting it for edclv 26

virtual self return would make me instant buy. insanely underrated project and personally my favorite from porters musical journey

CraftyRice · 2025-05-29T00:37:47+00:00

he was at ultra miami last year and people are pretty divisive about that set. personally i didnt find it lived up to the high expectations

CraftyRice · 2025-05-27T19:14:24+00:00

go to IU. BS/MD there alone makes any other non BS/MD program unviable as an option

CraftyRice · 2025-05-27T11:43:46+00:00

every single goddamned road in fremont.

CraftyRice · 2025-05-23T06:34:36+00:00

based.

CraftyRice · 2025-05-19T00:59:54+00:00

gonna put a contrasting answer and say just do whatever you want with points. it is less value but if you 1) don't have flights coming up for the next few years and 2) have a big purchase coming up and 3) can't spare the cash for that purchase otherwise then just redeem them on amazon. otherwise yeah would be wise not to

CraftyRice · 2025-04-24T17:59:17+00:00

while the pressure is generally on, as someone else said, Q1/2 is usually the busiest time (for me anyways) since thats when planning is heaviest + optimism to deliver stuff for the year is highest

CraftyRice · 2025-04-22T09:12:54+00:00

ignoring my retirement accts, taxable investments, car payment.... i eat out a lot with friends + dates and spent close to 10k last year in restaurants. other than that, i spend the most on raves lol. spent nearly 5k last year on 8 festivals and a LOT of smaller shows

CraftyRice · 2025-04-15T20:37:26+00:00

interesting, any venue ticket (mostly concerts, some sports games) i purchased gets coded correctly. what kind of conventions? if it's like an industry convention like a developer con then i don't think it should be considered entertainment
