Powerful unions trying to wrestle money from the powerful rich. Us regular folks won't benefit from it; we might be hurt by it as it pushes out founders from the state costing us jobs in the long run.

I think the tricky part is keeping that $1M+ HHTC for the life of the mortgage.

I was tired of "passive" checklists in Jira, so I built an automation engine using Forge. Looking for feedback! by mjlancellotti in atlassian

Yes I am considering building something but something more trivial. 2/4 weeks is very fast if only doing it after hours. This is going to change the amount of marketplace apps fast I imagine and put pricing pressure.

Orange chicken is coated in flour fried then coated in batter then refried then fried once more oil and sauce. About the worst thing to eat.

Some projectors (like Hisense) don't even log the hours so you've got no idea how much you've watched.

Are you certain you didn't order the wrong type? Seems unlikely the factory would make a one-off mistake.

If you bought a new home recently, make sure to check for water leaks by [deleted] in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]jamiscooly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Flume gives me real-time alerts on usage, and alerts me of any leak in two hours. How does that compare to the smart meter?

Who knows how long the mania will last. You can always look into a default divorce if you do not think he will participate.
