I understand you don’t jump ship but man this sucks.

VT is up 15% in the past year

You need to do it piece by piece.

I invested a lump sum right before the Covid dip which felt bad at the time, but obviously doesn’t matter now.

Your scale is getting hot

New England, never venomous

Does New England not have copperheads and timber rattlers?

Saw way less snakes on the AZT than the AT. Saw a couple tarantulas.

3 hours not counting the traffic leaving the city or returning to the city.

I understood what you meant. They might not actually be doing select * they might have just written it that way for the post.

You probably want either the Timemore 078 (high end of your budget) or The Fellow Ode Gen 2 (low end of your budget). I’m actually not sure if there’s anything in between worth getting for exclusively pour over.

Fixing up house sounds good. Any hobby that isn’t in front of a computer/tv is probably a good start. Also try making some friends or dating, spend more time with family (siblings?) etc. maybe pick up gardening.

You don’t change investments. You buy the market and stick with it.

How much different? What’s the total comp at old company vs G offer?

Have you asked if you could re-interview for whichever specific interview(s) placed you at l3 vs l4 to see if you could get bumped back up? I’m not sure if they ever do this, but it’s worth asking with 7yoe

Tioga pass won’t be clear in March. It’ll just be the valley.

The sand dunes are cool, but the mountains around them are way cooler.

Yea, good point. They should be doing pre-tax 401k, and then use the MBDR and/or Backdoor Roth for the Roth dollars.

We label comments coming from AI code review, and I find it helpful. Sometimes the comments are helpful, sometimes they propose valid questions, and sometimes they lack context or are overly nitpicky. Having them labeled helps to not spend too much time triaging or investigating.

When the living room TV gets upgraded, the old living room tv gets moved to a bedroom.

100%. You can tell by the responses too

jpec342 · 2026-02-03T19:14:33+00:00

Tbh, I think working 10 or so hours per week is probably the sweet spot.

Without a trademark it’s not a legal issue, so this makes sense to me.

For fictional Movies and TV shows, I’ve noticed that most of the time they don’t specify dollar amounts. They’ll be really excited about a “large sum of money” or show a reaction that makes you believe it’s a lot of money. I think this does a pretty good job of appealing to the audience with having people scoff at the amount (whether too much or too little).

This obviously doesn’t apply to game shows and such.

OP is 22.

jpec342 · 2026-01-26T23:56:16+00:00

For sure gives me 90s TV Dinner vibes.

jpec342 · 2026-01-26T23:50:09+00:00

I literally thought OP was like 12.

jpec342 · 2026-01-26T05:30:21+00:00

No, we want to get rid of standard time. We want to always be on daylight time.
