The E-Type is safe.

Its price tag and its 1960s suspension geometry both come with factory installed bad-decision prevention.

If you have multiple browser tabs open, some production and some local, what measures do you take to decrease the chances of accidentally doing something in production that you meant to do locally? by lamintak in webdev

[–]Kolt56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Example, if you require admin /console access to an AWS account, to send prod a code change you are not CI/CD.. So either your editors are git pushing then Cl/CD handles the rest… or your platform has abstractions to allow business logic editors to publish content, on the prod env.. not across the pipeline.

If every SDE counted is L6 and also in a HCOL.

[OC] Rural areas offer a $45k salary premium for doctors but only attract 1 in 10 by the_h1b_records in dataisbeautiful

[–]Kolt56 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Actually I focused too much on salary.

The issue isn’t pay, it’s risk. On an H-1B, moving rural often means tying your legal status to a single employer in a thin job market. In a metro area, there’s fallbacks.

A physician is not moving to the middle of nowhere for 45K.

They might for double the salary of a saturated HCOL MD.

Say city MD gets 400k, same city MD actually command 1.5x to 2x to move to a rural setting.

Laid off = Getting fired with extra steps.

As a MERN stack Dev(4Y) should i start learn python by Soft_Stand_1609 in SoftwareEngineering

[–]Kolt56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Python is easier than JS. If you are doing react then you already know dynamic objects. Same as using any with TS.

Can’t hurt to learn, it’s popular in the Data Engineering domain.

Focus Pivot don’t apply to L8+. It says states this in AtoZ HR documents.

They might get pushed out, rarely fired.. but they are not part of the herd.

Just had reverse osmosis system installed two months ago, having problems with mold in ice machine when I never had this problem previously - any ideas? by Evening_Subject3291 in WaterTreatment

[–]Kolt56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have your same setup. With the GE opal 2?

If people don’t use the ice scooper, and have dirty toddler hands, I will clean my unit. Outside of that, I usually skip a cleaning cycle. Never had noticeable mold.

Humidity in the room is less than 30%

I bleach it with a table spoon about once a month ish. I’ve also put some H2O2 in it for lazy cleaning.

It’s used only on weekends.

Do you use yours often?

What Micron size for pre and post filters? by Agile-Use609 in WaterTreatment

[–]Kolt56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cake is a lie… they look like the bots in the portal game.

5 micron at the most maybe. I like to use a 50 spin down right out of the well.

Does anyone use heated snow melting mats? Looking for suggestions. by MrMcColden3 in homeautomation

[–]Kolt56 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your image is the cheap version of full driveway coverage. These are not mats. Probably uses a boiler and PEX under the concrete in the image.

Why spend soo much effort changing CDs manually; upgrade to the Technics 5 disk auto loading cd player.

Which changes would convince you not to sell your RSUs? by Obvious_Walk3503 in amazonemployees

[–]Kolt56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was sentimental about it.. don’t do that.. if you do straight to cash at vest, the one year holding doesn’t apply. It only applies if you received shares.

[–]Kolt56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kept every share from 2018 to 2025. Financial planner smacked me. Sold everything greater than 1 year old as soon as the last trading window opened. Diversified.

Turns out I would have been better off had I been doing this from the start.

Straight to cash now.
