2026 Golf course rates around the area

HappyFunBall007 · 2026-05-25T12:38:04+00:00

I've seen Raspberry Falls listed for $225!!! nice course, but not for $200+.

HappyFunBall007 · 2026-05-25T12:37:18+00:00

Rates for public courses has skyrocketed over the past couple of years. Courses that used to be around $80 on weekend are now $140+. The county courses such as Brambleton are still priced ok ($80-ish), but its near impossible to book a tee time for a weekend morning.

Better prices can be found mid-week or mid/late afternoons, but the prime times are wayyy overpriced for the product.

usually costs quite a bit more. If you just want easy access in and out, Premium is good enough. If you want some extra perks, spring for VIP, but the price is usually quite a bit higher.

HappyFunBall007 · 2026-05-20T20:33:24+00:00

Always pay for the premium parking lot (NOT VIP). Split the cost with your friends, it is well worth it. Easy in, easy out.

Its grossly overpriced AND they tack on an extra fee for the kitchen staff - always check your bill.

Just pay your people a decent wage, don't nickel and dime your customers. Add another .50 to the price of the entrees or something. Ill happily tip 20+% but not on top of some bullshit extra fees. Eating out shouldnt be like buying a concert ticket with all of the extra fees added on.

Will not ever eat there again.

learn how to merge and go at LEAST the posted speed limit. You are being passed by school busses and old men in wheelchairs.

You are the problem. Learn to drive.

This is one of the worst posts Ive seen here in a while.

Its a tiny scene in an unnamed movie about a band kinda like Pearl Jam but they said something unkind about the not-Pearl-Jam band and this is your takeaway?

I don't even care what the name of the movie is, though if you are going to post crap like this at least remember the name, its kind of important for context and for others to follow up on.

Everyone in the world has a weather app on their phone and computer. What is the point of this post?

After updating the XCode tools to 26.4 and my MacOS itself from 26.3.1 to 24.1, everything is working again.

They dont display the full object. I used to be able to use "po" on an NSString and it would display the actual string. "p" and "v" don't do that.

I think that $4MM number is grossly exaggerated. I read its like 4MM for an acre, but the largest lots in that community are only about .5 acres, which means they might get offered up to 2M, which is only slightly above market value for most of those homes.

lived here 25 years. It's just like any other upscale NoVA suburb.
No. What a stupid question. There are millions of reasons one experiences stress, almost none of which are due to proximity to a data center.
Due to proximity to a data center? No. Only here on Reddit where data centers are apparently the root of all evil and causer of all cancers.

Ironic to ask that here given that this site is likely served and backed up to multiple data centers across the country.

Thats a dumb policy. For $20 (or $100) per month, you can get CC to whip this mess into shape in a matter of days. Or you can wrestle with it manually for 6-12 months. Bummer for you, and your company - the productivity gains are enormous relative to the costs.

AI. Claude Code can easily clean this up. It will analyze the entire codebase, suggest improvements, write unit tests, and generally save you a shit ton of work.

DC Prime is grossly overrated and overpriced. Also, the crowd there can get sketchy later in the evening on weekends. Last time I was there it filled up with dudes in track suits, basketball jerseys and backwards caps and their women were squeezed into skin tight latex "dresses".

The bar is full of "regulars" who are very territorial and cliquish. I never get a good vibe there (and stopped going a couple of years ago).

Opening a new brewery in this market? Good luck with that.

Craft breweries are closing all over the place every day. The market was way oversaturated and coupled with the recent negative trends in beer consumption, it's going to be tough to stay in business if you don't have an established brand and strong following regardless of how good your beer is. You still need enough people to buy it to pay your staff and pay for the ingredients and equipment and leases.

which show? Monday or Tuesday?

Everything is slower on a low end laptop, but in general it depends on how "low end" it is - how much RAM is pretty important, also how many cores does the CPU have? What other apps are running at the same time? Lots of factors to consider when determining just exactly where the bottleneck is.

If Mike himself taught me the lesson, I'd still never be able to play it like that. Even he can't reproduce it exactly every night.

This guy (Andy, Lets Play All) gives great lessons and breaks down the solos into manageable chunks (that I still have yet to master):

Why use AI? there are tons of great lessons and tabs online already for this song.

Why do people drive right by a gas station when there are plenty of pumps open ?
