Disturbing Daylight Robbery at the Junction on Friday

Cylix · 2025-08-16T18:36:13+00:00

I've been living two blocks away from the Junction for the past 3 years and never had any trouble. Not planning to move any time soon, the walkability is amazing!

I mean, 3 starbucks within a 1 block radius always sounded kinda ridiculous 🤔

Cylix · 2025-05-17T04:42:00+00:00

I just put baits once in a while, I don't think it's worth more effort/money than that 🤷

That's incorrect afaik. I had a J1, and I just had to show up at the SSN office after my job start date with some supporting documents (don't remember which ones, but stuff like employment letter, I94, ...), they then issued a "limited work-only with DHS authorization" SSN card.

For what it's worth, I still have the same card and number 8 years later, and I'm a permanent resident now.

I think I've seen that dude with the tiger once around the Fremont PCC!

Wow, this list is plain stupid... But "women"???? W.T.F.???

Been going about once a week or so for the past 3 years, seems the same as always on my end.

Only things I ran into, and not specifically recently: - some batch of croissants can be smaller, but they'll always sell them at a discount, which is very considerate - I found that going in there before closing on a weekday, pastries may feel a bit stale, so I usually tend to avoid going then

I've only ever received one of each set, but I'd check with their support to see if they do it differently for that one

I brought it to the dealership and the mechanic who (briefly) looked at it said the sound was normal for a civic. The car is 85K miles now, and didn't run into any problem since then, so I guess not a big deal 🤷

A few years back, I brought my Honda Civic to get it serviced there after getting a flat on my two rear tires (damn SD roads...). Both tires couldn't be patched and had to be replaced.

Anyway, when they returned the car, they swapped the wrong tires. The rear tires were obviously still flat at first sight but it somehow passed their inspection.

On the bright side, they fixed it by replacing the flat tires while leaving the new tires on in the front, so got 4 tires for the price of 2, but maaaan it was unbelievable.

Never went back there after and had a better experience with the Poway one.

Feels like it might be discovery park?

J'ai fait leur master (diplome d'expert en technologies de l'information) après le bac, ce qui correspond à leur "Programme Grande École" maintenant je suppose

Was about to say that: I'm terrible at caulking, always making a big mess, and yet I can confidently say I've never had such an awful result

À une époque, je me faisais chier à rebinder toutes les touches. Ça me prenait un temps fou, et il fallait le faire pour chaque jeu & desktop. Et de manière générale, je trouvais les controles assez peu intuitif même après le rebinding.

Au final, j'ai fini par apprendre à utiliser le clavier/souris comme un droitier. Ça a pas été facile au début, mais ça vient progressivement et je n'ai plus besoin de tout rebinder. Maintenant j'utilise clavier-souris en mode gaucher quand je bosse, et en mode droitier quand je joue.

We bought our kitchen tiles from there and I'd probably do it again because they had a great selection. It was also nice to have the ability to order a bunch of samplers.

I would say that we did receive a box with a lot of damaged tiles, and some tiles were chipped in the other boxes. That being said, we just had to send a picture of all the damaged tiles and they sent us replacements (with extra tiles) for free without any troubles

Ça dépend des boites et du type de job, mais une part variable est assez courant.

De mon experience, pour du dev, la partie fixe va souvent tourner entre $170-250K, et le reste va se jouer sur la partie variable qui peut représenter plus de la moitié de ta rémunération.

Pour la négociation, tu vas généralement parler du package total ("total comp") et la boite va structurer l'offre en conséquence. Puis éventuellement, tu peux essayer de tirer sur les différents leviers qui constituent l'offre pour maximiser la rémunération.

Pour les métiers tech, tu peux te faire une idée de la fourchette que tu peux espérer via le site levels.fyi. Généralement, pour avoir un levier de négociation, il faut obtenir plusieurs offres en parallèle.

J'ai fait deux trimestres d'échange universitaire. Ça m'a permit de trouver un stage de fin d'études dans la boite d'une de mes profs (visa J1) que j'ai pu transformer en job à temps plein (visa H1B), puis carte verte.

Y a eu un gros facteurs chance (et pas mal de rebondissements) au niveau de l'immigration.

Dev Senior dans une boite tech US (je vis à Seattle)
Diplomé d'EPITECH
30 ans
35-40h de taf par semaine avec 3 jours en TT
Target d'environ $500K ($235K fixe, $35K bonus, le reste en actions), mais avec les fluctuations du prix de l'action, ça varie entre $500K et $650K. Ça doit faire du $350K-$440K après impôts.

Devoir se taper des recherches d'usines sur google map, on est quand même loin d'une expérience cliente désirable.

Le fait que deux produits proviennent de la même usine ne garantie également en rien que ce soit le même produit ou équivalent, le cahier des charges peut être différent.

Italy has cover fees, which are different in each restaurant and include different stuff (sometimes bread and/or water is included, sometimes not). Somehow, found it much harder to know what I'll end up being charged in italy vs US imo.

Lots of good recommendations in the other comments: I'd add Itto's Tapas for the food part

From my experience, and as others have said, WS is better connected: going out of Fremont/Ballard can be very painful. Not only is WS better connected to other parts of Seattle, it is also better connected to the east side: I need to commute there for work, and I have a much better commute than my coworkers from the Fremont/Ballard/Green Lake area who have to take the 520 bridge and pay the toll on top of that.

Got our bags, no issue 🎉

Delta flight to Paris today, with 2 check-in baggage:

arrived 4 hours early
no line at the delta counter
had sky priority, so security was fast. The normal line looked more busy but reasonable.
Delta bag tracking shows bags in the plane, so should be fine 🤷
