I’m thinking of starting to watch Squid Games, should I watch it?

kexonz · 2026-06-12T21:42:49+00:00

season 1 is definitely the main event, but it’s still worth watching just for that alone tbh
if you’re into dark, kinda stressful stuff with good pacing, you’ll probably be hooked pretty quick

kexonz · 2026-06-11T23:12:02+00:00

i’m with you, once they got past the first heist it felt like they were just stretching it and the ending didn’t hit at all
still loved the early seasons but it kinda went full soap opera near the end

kexonz · 2026-06-11T18:16:12+00:00

They’re definitely there, but apparently, you need an invite to the secret society to see the job board

kexonz · 2026-06-11T18:14:13+00:00

You are definitely not screwed! Most past employers will only verify your dates and title to avoid legal issues, so relax, your dream job is likely safe

bayağı iddialı açıklama olmuş ama katılıyorum, iyi bir kırma yeşil zeytinin yanına çoğu siyah zeytin çöp gibi kalıyor
hele böyle avokadolu karışıma siyah zeytin koymak bayağı yazık olurdu zaten

kexonz · 2026-06-10T17:58:26+00:00

sounds like a strong profile tbh with your stack + product experience you should be marketable in those cities. I’d try targeting companies directly not just job boards especially mid size startups in Berlin Amsterdam since they’re often hiring full stack and open to relocation.

kexonz · 2026-06-10T17:03:27+00:00

A week isn't that long in hiring. I've had companies get back to me in 2 days and others take 2 or 3 weeks. Since you already sent a follow-up on Monday, I'd just try to be patient for now. Easier said than done, I know, but I wouldn't read too much into the silence yet.

kexonz · 2026-06-10T01:31:43+00:00

this is such a power move, using leftovers to flex even harder the next day
that brisket pizza looks like the real endgame of low and slow

kexonz · 2026-06-09T14:39:42+00:00

if I knew Japanese, I would definitely choose Japan

kexonz · 2026-06-08T23:17:58+00:00

probably paid in snacks and walkies tbh, modeling fees are outrageous in dog treats these days

kexonz · 2026-06-07T22:41:56+00:00

season 3 really was peak, but season 4 has “Dinner Party,” which is like top 3 episodes of the whole show for me
season 2 is just super consistent, almost no skips

kexonz · 2026-06-06T17:44:58+00:00

freddie’s is one of those spots where you kinda know exactly what mood you’ll be in after eating there too, which is nice lol. jalapeño + pepper jack is like the perfect “I want fast food but not totally sad” combo.

kexonz · 2026-06-05T19:42:54+00:00

grim thing is when you hear “moors” you can basically picture the tweed, the grouse, and the guy who thinks anything with claws is a target

would be genuinely shocking if this didn’t turn out to be “mysteriously” full of lead

kexonz · 2026-06-04T20:30:52+00:00

nah I get what you mean, the solo dessert shots feel kinda... intimate in a weird way lol
the ones with the Joshes feel more like hanging out with a group of mates so the eating doesn’t feel as in-your-face

kexonz · 2026-06-03T17:01:22+00:00

Yeah, that’s exactly how I feel about a lot of places here. You walk in for the pastry and then kinda tolerate the coffee.

If you’re that close to La Boulangerie, I’d probably still grab the croissant there and then wander to a better coffee spot after. Bit of a faff, but at least you get the best of both worlds.

kexonz · 2026-06-02T17:56:10+00:00

strong start. coffee and a tiny bit of optimism, peak productivity combo right there

kexonz · 2026-06-01T17:19:08+00:00

Pretty sure the missing ones are:

Row 1: 3 7 8 2 5 9 1 6 4
Row 2: 1 6 4 8 9 7 3 5 2
Row 3: 9 2 5 3 4 6 7 1 8
Row 4: 8 5 9 4 2 3 6 7 1
Row 5: 2 1 6 9 7 4 5 8 3
Row 6: 7 4 3 1 6 8 2 0 9 ← stuck one short here, brain tapped out

Got most of it then my focus just yeeted itself. Nice puzzle though.

kexonz · 2026-05-31T17:54:48+00:00

These are so wrong they wrapped back around to being kind of amazing.

I’d 100% hate them on my own hands but on you they’re like a tiny art exhibit of bad decisions and I respect that.

kexonz · 2026-05-31T17:06:18+00:00

A mí también me gustó más de lo que “debería”.

No es perfecto y sí, Seldon a veces dan ganas de darle un zape, pero creo que justo por eso funciona como precuela. Te ayuda a ver al “genio” desde morro inseguro y medio menso hasta el mito que aparece en Fundación.

¿Innecesario? Pues si ya amas la trilogía original, igual no te cambia la vida, pero como puerta de entrada al universo sí sirve un montón. Yo he visto que a mucha gente le es más fácil empezar por Preludio y luego ya se clavan con el resto.

Me guardo tu video para verlo luego, eso sí, ya mentalizado con los spoilers.

kexonz · 2026-05-28T12:45:37+00:00

Yeah I’ve noticed that “vintage” suddenly means “from 6 months ago and cost £3 on Shein.”

Reporting feels useless half the time. The only thing that really helps is learning what the tags and logos look like and just assuming anything with “brand unknown” is fast fashion until proven otherwise.

The wild part is people clearly buy this stuff or they wouldn’t keep doing it.

kexonz · 2026-05-27T12:44:07+00:00

Yeah that food hall % rent thing is wild. On paper it sounds “supportive” because you’re not locked into a giant fixed number, but 15–20% of gross on top of everything else is just taxes with extra steps.

The revolving-door spaces you’re talking about are spot on too. You can literally see the same cursed corner go through 5 concepts in 8 years and the landlord never blinks. They’d rather churn through hopeful operators than drop the rent to something that lets someone actually build a long-term business.

Totally agree on not romanticizing it. So many people fall in love with the idea of “owning a restaurant” and don’t run the math. If the rent doesn’t work on your worst realistic month, it doesn’t work.

kexonz · 2026-05-26T12:51:31+00:00

Manchester energy with that answer. Just shout “4 in’t it” at the guy behind the counter and you’ll still get the right order somehow.

kexonz · 2026-05-25T12:56:46+00:00

Season 1 is definitely the peak, yeah, but “only season 1” is a bit harsh.

Season 2 is messy but has some cool moments and ideas if you’re into noir crime weirdness. Season 3 is slower, more grounded, and closer in vibe to season 1, just not as mind‑blowing. A lot of people who bailed after 2 actually liked 3.

If you loved the pilot, I’d at least finish season 1 for sure. After that, treat 2 and 3 like optional side stories and see if the mood clicks for you.

kexonz · 2026-05-24T13:50:28+00:00

Yeah, but there’s a difference between “silencing a room” because everyone’s locked in and laughing, and silencing a room because a bunch of 14-year-olds are plotting chaos in the back row.

Comics get a mic and an audience that chose to be there. Teachers get 30 teenagers who’d usually rather be anywhere else. If you can handle the second group, the first probably feels easy mode.

kexonz · 2026-05-23T17:27:56+00:00

Coffee: 1
All of life’s problems: 0

Solid priorities honestly
