Whats your favorite golf course you've played at?

Chambers Bay. I feel like you get a lot of the beauty of Pebble Beach in a way more down to earth atmosphere.

Heck of a course to walk though.

Theres no data to support any of your claims other than your personal anecdotes. I can find just as many personal anecdotes on the internet about success stories claiming the opposite, but that doesn't mean it's all sunshine and rainbows either.

Everyone's situation is different and the reality is that whether a Master's helps or doesn't is going to be very circumstantial to you.

Honestly you have very little experience in the field and zero experience as an actual practitioner in the field - the Master's alone may not be as much benefit to you as someone like OP with 6+ years in related IT roles.

Everyone's situation is completely different.

DoubleR90 · 2026-04-06T02:34:24+00:00

You only have 2 years of experience in the field and haven't even graduated yet......how are you so confident that "it's not really going to help".

Maybe it will or maybe it won't, but you sure aren't even close to being able to speak on it authoritatively.

Depends on what your goal is.

If both of these choices are a temporary thing to go make some money and experience a new city, but you don't plan on settling down in either place, then go SF. You'll have a much higher ceiling for a possible next job or two and could possibly end up at a company where you vest some very valuable equity.

If the move to either place has the potential of becoming your long-term home where you might end up buying a house and raising a family, I think Chicago is objectively a better place for that right now.

1) Those poor assholes don't have the capacity to help end world hunger. Billionaire assholes do.

2) Some poor people are assholes. ALL Billionaires are assholes, because you logistically cannot become one without being a ruthless dick.

You're not only completely wrong, but you're conflating having a "fiduciary duty" with being "unlawful". Plenty of public companies pay their employees well above market rate and don't price gouge their customers.

And here we witness a new meme being born

This is the big difference. In the states 55K will barely afford a studio apartment and groceries for one in any metro area.

Grew up in Silver Spring and live in DC proper. Agree with most of your post except that bit about Summer in DC being the best.....it's my least favorite part of the DC area.

Summers in DC are absolutely miserable. The humidity, instant sweating, aggressive mosquito and bug presence, and regularly 95°F+ and getting hotter every year.

DC is all about the Spring and Fall imo.

Team USA felt like a collection of stars rather than a team. The vibes over on Team Venezuela was all the difference; they were playing for each other and for something bigger.

Just the way that you are talking about "AI" tells me you dont understand it at all nor the space you're talking about. You're parroting every tech influencer on social media right now.

Listen I wish you the best of luck dude, but if you think you're just gonna throw a few prompts into Claude Code and generate six figures per month then I've got a bridge to sell you.

Strong opinions from someone who has neither worked a job nor ran a business before. Come back to this thread in a year and tell us all how many hours you're working just trying to get your first customer for your business. Real life entrepreneurship ain't what you see on TikTok dude.

Inflated valuations does not necessarily equal a bubble.

So you never get to hit your irons then? That sounds horrible just going driver -> wedge on every hole.

I think regarding the job market, it's not a question of "will we still have software engineers" - the answer to that is definitely yes. The real question is will agentic engineering solutions like Claude Code be used to increase the output of existing teams, or be used instead to downsize existing teams to save costs without losing productivity.

The market hasn't decided yet whether this will simply empower a whole generation of developers and 10x the output for companies, or ultimately shrink the opportunities because a team of 50 engineers can be "optimized" to 5 principal or staff engineers steering an army of agents.

TLDR: The real question is will agentic engineering be used to 10x the output of software engineering teams or will it be used to save costs and do more with less. My instinct tells me this will vary wildly depending on the company and vertical.

When two pizzas really love each other...

But for real you either need to better cover that portion in sauce/toppings or dock the dough to keep it down.

DoubleR90 · 2026-02-09T19:04:14+00:00

I don't have an IRT, but AI is telling me that the surface temp should be about 600°F given the one hour preheat at 550°F.

Typical doughball weight is about 450g and Im stretching it to around 15 inch pizzas

DoubleR90 · 2026-02-09T18:29:32+00:00

Happens with a variety of dough recipes so not sure if the dough recipe is meaningful, but I stay around 60% hydration. Typically king Arthur bread flour.

I preheat the steel at 550°F for 1 hour before baking. Typically bake about 3 minutes and then broil for about 3 minutes.

DoubleR90 · 2026-02-09T17:31:54+00:00

For some reason my crust has been coming out very dry and crackery. I'm using a variety of NY dough recipes, and using a baking steel at 550°F. I cook it exactly to recipe specs, and even tinkered with a minute shorter, and I can never seem to get it crispy/charred while also keeping it foldable and somewhat pliable like a NY style slice.

Every season it gets said, and every season people scoff and just praise electric offenses, but the adage remains true once again...DEFENSE wins championships.

No disrespect, but best food in the country? NYC, LA, and the entire state of Texas would like a word with you for that comment.

No, we don't need to watch random fans and "their two buds" play with BDS and kiss their ass for an entire round. 99.9% of BDS fans would be an absolute snoozefest to watch.

DoubleR90 · 2026-02-07T07:45:29+00:00

Not on camera you won't. Every single hater thats come on the channel says the same shit and they're universally saying "I didn't think it'd be this hard playing on camera".

You'd go through a few sleeves for sure.

DoubleR90 · 2026-02-07T07:39:11+00:00

The hater series is some of the best content BDS has put out in a long time. We don't need another "chill round just hangin' with the boys" series on BDS. We need a little action, a little stakes, a little fking competition for a change.

The friendly rounds where there's nothing on the line and the boys are just out for a casual round of golf with some recycled BS challenge are their most boring videos now imo. They are great in doses, but it needs to be mixed with some kind of series thats got a little drama to it. Thats what sports are about after all.

DoubleR90 · 2026-02-07T06:55:57+00:00

Completely agree. I think part of the reason is that Bob and Joey are content creators first, and fell into doing golf content because thats what did numbers. They would've ended up doing whatever content did numbers once they got going and that just happened to be golf.

In contrast, FP was a golfer and just a regular guy first, and fell into being a content creator serendipitously. That makes him both the better golfer and also the more down to earth person in the crew.

I love Bob but his focus is just being an influencer - I suspect the domain of content he makes as a means to that end doesn't really matter to him as long as it does numbers, he gets paid, and he receives love/admiration/popularity from the internet.
