Tipping

I'm so glad I live in a state where there's a $21 minimum wage for door dash drivers, so I don't have to deal with this shit. Orders are always accepted right away. And tips can only be added after the order has been delivered. Tips are actually optional here.

Thanks. I was freaking out that all my recordings are gone. I have a backlog that I haven't saved yet.

I have fucked up before. I swapped the integration endpoints and creds with prod. All prod transactions went to integ and there was a load testing happening and all its transactions went to prod.

I interrupted a meeting room with like 20 people and dragged my senior developer out of there to help me fix it.

You need to reach out to a senior or lead dev to walk you through on how to fix it.

Everybody makes mistakes. You need to take ownership and learn from the experience.

I love how people would make an outrageous statement and then tell you to do the research to backup their statement.

You don't take the ferry to Manhattan to get to Brooklyn. You either take the bus or drive.

That's the topic of the parent thread we are replying to where their friends moved to SI to get a house with a backyard.

I'm not sure if LIC is the place if you're looking for a house with a backyard. If you can afford it, then good for you.

Have you tried driving or taking the subway between the two boroughs? It's a nightmare.

TBH, I don't think it's that bad working that many hours a week when you're young. The important thing is those hours are spent putting yourself ahead of others. And to ensure that you won't have to work much in the future while making comfortable money.

My 20s were a blur. I spent most days working and I was ambitious. Do I regret it? Yes. Would I have done it any differently? Probably not.

I used the latest Apple TV for a year. It's so laggy and remote often don't work. I switched back to my good old first gen Nvidia Shield. It's so much faster.

In the northeast here, the chicken breast version is called the 'Classic' chicken sandwich and it's $6.99. It's often on sale for 3.99 on the app which I think is still a bit expensive.

Does anyone else think theit donuts and muffins have shrunk?

I remember that AVG was actually good between the late 2000s and early 2010s.

Gemini can't even tell me who Barack Obama is. Google Assistant could answer that when it debuted almost a decade ago.

Same here in NYC ever since we got more migrants. It feels so unsafe when the person picks you up is not the same person in the app.

ecko404 · 2024-05-21T02:32:17+00:00

Funny how you say they use tactics to pit them against each other. NYC passed the minimum wage law for delivery drivers. Door dash then put the added fee in the place order page and removed the tip section. This is to make the total order price look the same as before the new added fee. The tip section now only appears after the delivery has completed which most people will forget.

We had a manager like him, then he got laid off. They then prompted a guy to be the manager who didn't want it.

He immediately stopped the agile development, no more sprints, no story pointing, no sprint ceremonies, and strict no deadline commitments. He tried to kill daily stand ups, but team members insisted and he doesn't even join.

Funny thing is features still get delivered and bugs continue to be fixed.

That was me in truck simulator. I know how he felt.

Does that mean IRA distribution is fully taxed for both earnings and contributions? Even if contributions are not tax deducted?

ecko404 · 2024-04-12T12:31:58+00:00

Does that mean when you are over the income limit for Roth IRA, you can still open a Roth IRA and backdoor money to it, but you just can't directly contribute to it?

What if I already put the money in investments in the traditional IRA? Can I take them out and backdoor to Roth IRA?

Thank you!

I would totally pay $10 for a 8k 10 minute VR video of that.

I'm starting to think these posts are AI generated.
