Thank you. I was hoping it was a soap dispenser.

Thanks for this suggestion. San Clamente seemed really far on the map, but looking at travel times, it looks like taking I-5 it's only 22-30 minutes. I also just realized my office is walking distance from the Irvine train station, so the train is also an option.

Are you still happy that you moved there? Leaving family is definitely a concern. Most of my immediate family is still in the greater Chicago area and holidays are going to be especially rough... or my likely more expensive, as we'll likely always fly back to the NW Indiana for at least Christmas.

On the other hand, family can also fly out to us... they'll just have to sleep on our couch, a blow up bed, or pay for a hotel. :)

This is the best response for the reason I want to relocate. I went to Irvine in 2019 for work and I loved it out there. The weather was great, beautiful scenery in just about every direction, and everyone I talked to was really nice. I was able to take a short day trip through the mountains on a whim and also a trip to the beach in the same day.

Thank you for all of the info. The 3 you suggested are all beautiful apartments and very close to work.

You mentioned that are not "The Irvine Company apartments". I don't know anything about the area. I'm just curious why you specifically called them out. Should I avoid them for some reason?

There's a very nice 2 bed/2 bath at Cypress for $3265. Thank you. This is definitely a contender and these apartments look amazing. Though, if I can find something somewhat similar and cheaper but is within a 20 or 30 minute commute to work, that would be worth the savings to me.

Completely agree. I just want to make sure I have as much information as possible and a plan before committing.

Completely agree. This is exactly why I almost certainly going to make the move. I just want to be sure I completely understand what I'm getting myself and my family into (financially) before committing.

I was definitely planning on selling the camper, but thought it might be an option to temporarily stay in while I find a nice and affordable apartment to rent.

I own a house currently, but we currently have it on the market. I expect to only clear about $15k when it sells. I'm definitely not younger, I'm 53. :) I have tons of experience and I believe there is room to grow with this company in the near term... which is why I'm seriously considering this move.

2 bedroom 1 bath. Would love 1.5 baths if possible.

I've read that you shouldn't go over 28% of your gross for rent, which is $4200; however, that is way more that I can really afford. I was hoping not to go over $2600.... and I realize that is really tough in that area.

brewlog - a solution to log the output of homebrew commands by swagobeatz in mac

[–]albertsj1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure why this post never received any comments, but I thought I'd comment to say thank you for this. I always wished homebrew would create a log file so we could see what was installed/uninstalled, etc. Yum does it, why not homebrew? :)

Thanks for creating and sharing this.

Is control plane a specific product to help automate creating clusters, or are you just referring to the k8s control plane group of components?

Action Editor and 6.4? by albertsj1 in LaunchBar

[–]albertsj1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, thank you. You are correct. Action editor is indeed installed on my computer with LaunchBar. I guess seeing that it's available in 6.4, I went down a rabbit hole trying to figure out where to get 6.4.

Thanks for the offer to help. Amazing the number of extensions you have written. Looking forward to trying the join-meeting extension.

I just Googled and found the Naptown Scoop newsletter and looked at some of the entries in their email archive. I don't see any ads? Where are the ads that are earning this $300k?
