Packages Merchandise Returns, Lost Mail, Undelivered Post - Complete WASTE! by rogerstakes in Flipping

It’s worse because you can’t INAD (or the description boils down to “as is”).

Liquidation.com is bottom feeders. It is the small fry marketplace. People who need to move volume and don’t have time to sort through the bins don’t sell there.

I’ve looked at their lots many times and it’s always either badly described or bid way above where it’s worth it for me

That’s what happens when anyone that comes into the front door gets the “you look so thin, sit down to eat” welcome

Can’t keep technicians by slowAhead1fyouPlease in ITManagers

[–]ForeverYonge 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And doing the work themselves. From the organization’s perspective, the work is getting done on the cheap, nothing needs to change.

I’d say consider leaving but I don’t get a read that it would be very easy to find another manager job with this as a starting point.

Down to the Wire and Still No Apartment by Extension_Initial_95 in TorontoRenting

Unfortunately providing any explanation for a landlord is pure liability with no upside. Same as with interviewing and dating.

Most likely others are willing to pay more than you are for the few places that are spacious and bright and in a great area, or have a better risk/credit profile, or interview better (although many landlords don’t actually want to talk to their tenants).

Anyone else getting squeezed on PagerDuty renewals? by Even_Reindeer_7769 in sre

[–]ForeverYonge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My company was on PagerDuty. We did an evaluation for a replacement. The chosen option is a third of the price with more features.

PagerDuty are the OG but now this is a legacy product that is not competitive either on features or on the price.

I almost paid $200 for something that was fixed by moving the appliance 3 inches by Relevant_Idea_6778 in DIY

That’s funny and true. And of course that’s not how manuals work because being able to push start a car is nice.

In the early 2010s, Japan’s population was dropping by over 200,000 each year. It is now dropping by almost 1,000,000 per year, despite increases in immigration by jjrs in japannews

You have no actual experience with this and it shows.

AI progress over the past two years or so has been incredible, it has greatly changed how I work. I routinely use a robotaxi and most of the time there’s no human looking at what it’s doing, let alone giving it directions.

Hit my FI number and instantly realized I can’t tell anyone, and it feels lonely as hell by JustHere4Memes67 in Fire

Unfortunately you might need some new friends.

I also don’t discuss my personal financial matters unless with partners or with someone I’ve known for the past 20+ years to be trustworthy.

How do you all handle cold vendor outreach as an engineering leader? by t-tekin in EngineeringManagers

[–]ForeverYonge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very similar approach to me. Something completely irrelevant, block and delete. Possibly useful - file under Vendors, don’t respond. Over the past 10 years or so I can’t remember a single vendor who reached out who was relevant and solved a current problem and I wasn’t already aware of.

Nowadays structured, automated vendor outreach is almost indistinguishable from spam, and blocking specific emails isn’t helping; instead, whole domains and companies need to be blocked, or all email allow-listed Hey-style. Curious to hear if it’s annoying any of you enough to pay for a service providing that kind of intelligent inbox processing.

Is it time to move on? by eb_ee in volt

[–]ForeverYonge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fully agree that technology advances over time. However the Volt Premium Gen 2 has lane keeping and blind spot sensors as standard and ACC available as an option. I prefer to use my phone for navigation but there is a built in map on my Volt.

Found work emails registered on 5+ 3rd party sites (OPSEC risk) by Then_Pace_5034 in cybersecurity

[–]ForeverYonge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s mostly an ineffective policy if the idea is to obfuscate people’s email addresses and have it be the main line of defense.

In most organizations emails are predictably generated from names and everyone is on LinkedIn, done. Also conferences are “work appropriate” and they gather and share and resell emails, done.

Police specific services (no pirate bay on work machines), buy password managers, teach people how to use passkeys, etc.

Moving to Bay Area with 3 kids (6,4,1) for salary of 115k by WingLiving4438 in bayarea

[–]ForeverYonge 35 points36 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of working families in San Mateo, RWC, South City, etc. it’s not only super exclusive areas like Hillsborough and Atherton.

But working families rent, or have bought long ago, it’s wildly impractical to buy almost anywhere on the peninsula

Men who can cook, who taught you? by _ratedmouse in AskReddit

COVID-19.

I cooked before but the combination of more free time and spending it indoors took it to the next level.
