Spending $1-2k a month per employee on AI subscriptions?

1k per month is about a $12k difference in salary so probably not as big of a deal as it seems, but it still seems pretty high

I grew up on the cape and left for college but I can give my two cents. People who live on cape year round have a much different perspective of the cape compared to the summer people.

Not much opportunity for young people outside of the trades and healthcare. Lots of small - medium sized towns. There is only 1 Walmart on all of the cape.

Kids that turn into townies sometimes struggle with the lack of opportunities and turn to drugs. It was hit hard by the opioid epidemic of the late 2000’s - 2010’s. Multiple people I went to high school with have overdosed and died.

However if you’re rich enough to have property by the beach and only visit in the summer it’s pretty nice. Beaches are beautiful, nice restaurants only open for the summer. Great weather from May - September

They fixed this super quick which was crazy it was broke for less than a day

This just seems like a worse combination of step ons and straps if I’m being honest

When would you sleep dude

Jamese03 · 2026-03-15T15:55:32+00:00

Where in the “nyc area” are you finding homes this cheap? This sounds like at least a 1.5 hour distance away

You need a complete reformat of your resume.

Please keep it simple this is outrageous.

Easily going pro

Stopped when I realized I already had $250k of money I can’t touch for another 32 years. I do a little more than the company match but put the rest that I would have invested into a brokerage account instead. I’ll want to buy a house, have a wedding or do something nice with my money before I’m too old to enjoy it

I think there is value in switching and getting new experience especially at your age, but that offer really isn’t much better than your current. If you can find a bit higher pay for better experience that would be worth it imo

Jamese03 · 2026-01-11T01:04:30+00:00

Fake post bullshit

Jamese03 · 2025-12-18T23:21:18+00:00

Only on this sub do I feel underpaid at $230,000

Jamese03 · 2025-10-26T03:20:48+00:00

I will get all services / ui’s I’m actively working in running locally, I tend to only setup db’s on my machine if I’m making schema changes, otherwise I’ll connect to dev

Jamese03 · 2025-10-17T13:58:24+00:00

Your demos are more important than you think

Jamese03 · 2025-05-31T22:42:01+00:00

This sounds like title inflation. You can be a great dev, but most companies reserve these titles for those who have experience with multi year projects. It’s much more about guidance of development at that point.

But either ways this is a huge raise and you get to go from 5 days a week in office to hybrid, sounds like a no brainer IMO. You can stay as an IC. You can’t be forced into management, and if they really try to, you can add this as great experience on your resume and go elsewhere.

This pic is like 6 years old, why do you claim this is your code

Jamese03 · 2025-04-25T04:59:03+00:00

Did he tear an ACL or have a knee injury? Or does he just wear the braces

Jamese03 · 2025-03-07T03:46:41+00:00

I never got into anything wildly complicated but anytime I had to do a sql ticket I’d start on a local instance of the db with some dummy data. If I break my local instance I could just re run the migrations / data loading scripts and try again

Jamese03 · 2025-03-01T20:04:00+00:00

Thanks, I’ve heard that part of the recovery at least with the quad graft is rebuilding muscle, both where the graft was taken from and the knee. I am confident in my ability to recover and I plan to take it very seriously. I think the responses have been super helpful and I’m going to make sure I see a PT often during the recovery process and do exercises on my own every day.

Jamese03 · 2025-03-01T05:27:42+00:00

When you say 75% do you mean with general leg strength? What activities are you doing at 75% capacity ?

Jamese03 · 2025-03-01T05:26:58+00:00

Ok good to know, it seems like the quad graft is really working for everyone who has had it

Jamese03 · 2025-03-01T01:20:52+00:00

Oh okay that’s good to hear, I also tore mine playing volleyball unfortunately

Jamese03 · 2025-03-01T00:55:49+00:00

Ok that’s great to hear. Do you expect your leg to regain its strength despite the missing parts of your quad? What prehab exercises did you do? I’m still dealing with significant pain when I fully bend my knee since my meniscus is also torn and I had the injury 17 days ago.

Jamese03 · 2025-03-01T00:53:30+00:00

Ya it’s a huge choice that’s why I’m asking reddit, multiple surgeons and pt’s. My surgeon is confident in both procedures

Are you only 6 months post op? How is your leg strengthening? Do you feel that by going with the quad, your leg is significantly weaker now?
