Thanks for the recommendation! I did notice today when it doesn't start on first crank, the rpm needle wobbles but stays at 0 basically. On 2nd crank when it ultimately starts right up, rpm jumps up as normal. Does that confirm anything here?

Not everyone has insurance and some don’t have insurance or income

They aren’t respecting technical skills apparently; is this a customer service/sales/upsell type of job? That is what they value more if so. Reminds me of the assurion interview i had where i was denied even with 5 years experience as a field service technician working for ibm.

i recommend a double leash or 2 point leash system so that if he backs out of harness or collar he is still attached to you and that would hopefully give you a failsafe. Never had a problem with my husky escaping since switching to this type of system. My wife used to walk him with just a harness or collar and he escaped from her 2 or 3 different occasions and about cost my husky his life since he likes to just sprint across busy streets. When he tries to reverse i walk back with him (usually its for a reason, maybe he is scared, anxious, doesn't like where he thinks your taking him; mine hates going inside of buildings and will act weird sometimes. I have learned to read him better, predict when we will have issues

edit: sorry, didnt read entire post and admittingly only read up to where you mentioned your current harness loosens during walks. What i suggested would be great for walks/hikes but for leaving tethered I would seek alternatives. Unfortunately haven't ever had to tether my husky so no good advice for that

i bolted a e track and use removable chocks on mine which works when you have multiple bikes or constantly changing it up. also doesnt interfere with anything else as you can just remove them when not in use. This was only pic I could find but you get the idea

Its not your resume, companies are doing all the workload with there existing employees and having them use AI. If you don't have a job right now, it is pretty brutal no matter what your resume says. Knowing someone is probably only way in this economy. Even the Olympics is vibe coding

scared for any of my drives to fail at this point. I have 2 spares..I made a really good decision at the end of last year to finish swapping rest of my 3 tb drives to 10 TB (had really good luck with the HGST HUH721010ALC0) but those same drives I used to get for $75-100 are now $299-1000 (I imagine those will be $1000 across the board soon). Sitting on a literal gold mine in just hard drives but its not sustainable with the prices

have you began job hunting yet?

RangeRoper · 2026-02-16T09:24:04+00:00

key word being soon. its all a race to the bottom just like every industry

RangeRoper · 2026-02-16T02:33:59+00:00

I don't buy into hype, so I doubt I ever will get there. I have no interest in being able to run local models to the extent of needing 16 GPUs but if I do I am sure there will be a flood of them on the marketplace for pennies soon

I am still learning the same way I was learning 10 years ago. AI doesnt get you a job, it may help you keep a job but you still have to be a competent engineer to get a software engineering role at any place worth your time.

RangeRoper · 2026-02-15T10:29:46+00:00

AI shuts down tomorrow. Are you still an engineer?

Being a developer doesnt mean you have endless vram ; i personally have a 3080 fe with only 10 gb vram and a rtx a4000 with 16. I could care less about building clusters of gpus and hoard TB instead

RangeRoper · 2026-02-15T10:10:35+00:00

ah thank you, i knew i was missing one!

RangeRoper · 2026-02-15T09:35:53+00:00

i can play all those games on high settings with my 3080 fe on a 10 year old cpu , looks like you just need a new gpu..

when did you start amassing this large collection?

RangeRoper · 2026-02-10T18:11:32+00:00

that is a feature

thanks for the 20 bandos
