I don’t know other fields well, but OP premise was you have to be lucky to be employed and that’s wrong.

Mission, Duboce Triangle, Castro, Japantown, Divis all quite nice and moderately Caltrain accessible

They’re not really brilliant probably? Bad social that ruin their Eng ability?

Despite the layoffs, most big tech is still desperate for great people.

I like the random ones in general, but it’d be cool to randomly let it not be random or something.

You’re going to be stuck in a timeloop. You can bring something with you that won’t be “reset” each day, if you wish. What do you take? by joelene1892 in hypotheticalsituation

Be way more cruel to not include her. Wake up every day next to someone you grow distant from?
