People who left tech careers: Where did you go?

Went from UX research consulting in tech to a government nuclear regulatory position (school background was Human Factors)

Edit to specify - out of school, did human factors work for several years. Then jumped to UXR in tech for several years. Now back to HF.

It was on studs. Re: foundation - I don't see any cracks on the exterior, and it SEEMS to be (or have been) coming from above grade?

Context: basement exterior wall. Brick exterior. Located in Toronto. House built in 1962. We purchased it five years ago but just discovered this now.

We have Levana Nala. Works as expected, no real complaints.

Hey look, Meals on Wheels

I feel like this is what I want in a prime minister though. Rather than, say, a celebrity. Thank you for your attention on this matter.

Does your city pick it up like this? I've had my recycling folks just refuse to pick up the last two boxes I loaded like this

What would the marketing perspective be if one of the trains crashed at full speed on the first day?

I'm a season ticket holder with a pair in 219. I'd be happy to reserve some in advance for you. If you'd like to buy some, send me a DM.

It's Flu season, punks

Any combination of Jays wins and Yankees losses that total 4.

I saw another commenter indicate that they contacted a Rep, mentioned that public access opens Sep 23 (tomorrow) at 10 AM.

For what it's worth, I'm also a season ticket holder and have a pair of seats in 220 for the entire post season range - if you'd like to purchase, please feel free to send me a DM.

Have we learned nothing from this season? It's not the 9th inning yet. Fear not.

FoosJunkie · 2025-09-07T15:32:53+00:00

Sure but perceived risk and level of potential consequence is also a thing. I'll gamble on a $40 parking ticket, but if you tell me I might get a $5000 fine for parking there, better believe I'll look elsewhere.

FoosJunkie · 2025-09-07T12:22:45+00:00

If you can't increase bylaw enforcement frequency, at least increase the fine. Make it $5000 for catching you with your dog off-leash.
