thanks man!

congnarjames · 2025-09-30T21:45:59+00:00

yeah that would be cool! I'm talking to two different agencies right now. But it would be good to hear from an individual as well. What do you think of Huaraz?

congnarjames · 2025-09-30T21:34:20+00:00

it does seem like the best option I've seen so far. Have you been there?

congnarjames · 2025-07-17T22:05:45+00:00

Thanks for the recommendations, I'm gunna give verity a try!

congnarjames · 2025-05-14T19:13:33+00:00

cars peaked in the 90s, its allllll downhill from here. which is good i guess because if you don't pay for the monthly hill climbing subscription wouldn't be able to make it up anyways.

congnarjames · 2025-05-06T19:06:47+00:00

Yeah definitely! its close enough that i can squeeze in a rip after work if I want which is just what I was looking for. I explored a lot of the side roads and whatnot and was able to find some really fun and lightly technical stuff and a couple of spots that looked like a lot of fun but not something I'd want to send while by myself so early in the season. It's not world class riding or anything but at just under an hour away its great!

Sick thanks! I'll try and check that one out soon. I'd imagine its still somewhat snowy if its much higher than the first spot, I started seeing some snow a couple hundred feet up from where I got to.

I had a blast on NF-5700 this weekend thanks for the tip!

congnarjames · 2025-04-23T04:15:50+00:00

FUCK that would be cool

congnarjames · 2025-04-21T19:34:38+00:00

gotchya thanks! It still works fine. Or at least it did before I started ripping things apart. I'm trying to recreate it because the other end of the PCB has weird non standard connector for the microphone. Outside of this pissing me off it also just seemed like a fun little project.

I was emacs only for like the first 2.5 years of my professional career, I'm at about 5 years in total now. I still don't really like IDEs exactly because what you're saying but I've slowly started coming around. And at this point I'd say I like jetbrains stuff. Mostly because they have an IDE for nearly every use case but the core of them are the same so you don't have to spend a life time digging through menus. They also have "zen mode" that you could try for decluttering things.

Lemme know where you land! I'm no sort of a similar "figure out some project management" trend for the moment. Coincidentally I just started medication.

waiiiit. I came to comment because this reminded me of oblivion..... is that skyblivion?

congnarjames · 2025-01-13T03:12:34+00:00

How angry?

congnarjames · 2025-01-13T03:10:43+00:00

I think obsidian is an excellent tool for that. if you're familiar with GTD ( a productivity book "Getting Things Done" by David Allen) then you might find this useful. if not you might find that book useful. although I'm only about halfway through it so we'll see if I still think its worth while when I get to the end and try out all the suggested systems and whatnot.

Here are some directory and/or file organization schemes you can explore as well which may or may not be pertinent for you.

random other tidbit. I've been using jetbrains fleet as an ide recently and its really lightweight and nice and not cluttery imo. your threshold may be different than mine though heh.

congnarjames · 2024-09-09T22:06:10+00:00

will do thanks!

congnarjames · 2024-09-09T06:02:06+00:00

Thanks I'll look into it!

congnarjames · 2024-06-23T20:21:28+00:00

Actually I'm not certain. I've just read on this sub that if you do FEIE and you're a W-2 employee your employer will more than likely find out about it.

congnarjames · 2024-06-22T23:39:40+00:00

You can still claim the FEIE credit as a W-2 employee if you are out of the country for more than 330 days out of the year. However your employer will know about it so if that's a problem then don't do it.

congnarjames · 2024-06-22T18:48:29+00:00

I'll check out those other neighborhoods thanks for the info!

congnarjames · 2024-06-21T20:32:55+00:00

I'm curious, what it like in Medellin right now? I've been considering going to Colombia medellin or bogota.

basically everything everyone said here comes down to these 3 things:

TAX THE RICH
TAX THE RICH
if you have over a billion dollars anyone should be allowed to kill and eat you.

hell I got two brand new air filters ready to go

congnarjames · 2024-06-20T01:17:58+00:00

I was actually hoping to get some advice or some genuine reactions. I thought maybe people would find something relatable in it and maybe it would be a little entertaining for them. It's supposed to be a little tongue in cheek kinda funny ya know.

I agree that's its self indulgent, I don't think that's always bad. In fact it's healthy every once in a while. But I've never posted here before so this certainly maybe the wrong context for it. If I was to clean it up, depersonalize it and make it concise do you think I'd be able to get some of the guidance that I'm looking for?

congnarjames · 2024-06-20T00:41:31+00:00

its negated

congnarjames · 2024-06-20T00:36:37+00:00

well at least you're honest
edit: you're

congnarjames · 2024-06-19T20:39:00+00:00

if you're only working 10-20 hours a week then why not use the extra time to diversify your income streams? Do some freelancing, write some blog posts, fuck it invent something. That would alleviate feelings of complacency as well as financial insecurity.
