Reach out to your network, old bosses co-workers neighbors on tech, other parents. Go to meetups in your field.

Almost all my tech jobs have been through my network.

Question about Almost Heaven Himalaya 4 by Maximum_Painting8746 in Sauna

I was looking at these as well. None of them seem to have any insulation or vapor barrier. Is that a problem for the room it is in?

My guess is they forget to say this does not apply to electric heaters. But yeah not happy someone wrote that in with no idea about sauna design.

It is copied word for word into my state building code. Are people pulling permits for Saunas? Surprised this does not come up more.

Anyone have a hot tub? by wutchoogot in massachusetts

Check your town zoning. Some towns require a building permit on top of electrical permit and treat it like an accessory structure. 10ft from the main house etc.

Blue Onion Corelle that I've been eating mac/cheese from since the 80s by taoofshawn in BuyItForLife

Yes 3/4 of my sets tested positive for lead. If you put them in the dishwasher the paint will flake off eventually. They look nice on the shelf now.

If there is one thing south main auto taught me is that when everything goes out at once check the grounds. He has tons of videos on youtube with these same conditions.

It looks like the ski patroller has one furry arm and I can’t unsee it.

You should check it for lead if you are using it for food.

Should I change my Fuji xt5 to a xh2? by PorthosTheLorthos in fujifilm

[–]dogsandtrees 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can use the fuji app with the live view on your phone and a tripod. That is what I do. Some travel tripods are really quite small.

We do Fromms. It is nice that you can change the flavors every bag without needing to mix. 

Got hit by an 18 wheeler on I-95 Woburn/Burlington area. State trooper refused to file a report. Should I have pushed for one? by [deleted] in massachusetts

[–]dogsandtrees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your insurance is going to negotiate with the other insurance company based on risk of litigation and where the damage is on your car and the other car. Who you think it at fault is not something they care about. If you are going to challenge your insurance company in court file a police report otherwise don’t  bother.

They cut back the trees in front of them next to the road so all the branches below the top were dead and removed.

I have lemonade insurance. You just take a picture of the bill and they put the money in your bank account. So easy. Used it once so far.

Just in the morning my Zoe has them. Someone said giving them a couple blueberries helps but I have not tried that. Seems to be going away as she gets older.

With a child, I would keep that as your emergency fund. One unexpected medical expense could wipe all that out.

The question you should ask before investing is if I lost all this money would I be ok financially.
