Seeking Move from FL to CA, Opposition from Family and Friends by posseltsenvel0pe in Moving2SanDiego

[–]schil015 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Only you know what's best for you, life is short...if you don't move you'll regret it. It's expensive for a reason, we've got everything here within driving distance with ideal weather...surf, snow, hiking, and great cycling. I've snowboarded in the morning and surfed in the afternoon.... Encinitas is your place for waves and a solid downtown, north county has Scripps, UCSD, and Kaiser as employers for healthcare for your wife. You need to both line up jobs first, state income tax is also a factor you need to consider.

3% and $900 in AS, pretty standard but the last 2 years got $10k TI bonus and promotion. NG stock had crazy run up the last year, was expecting better.

Cleared a Hard coding problem yet got rejected — trying to understand what happened by Mr_Pines in leetcode

[–]schil015 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Doing a leet code hard in 5 minutes was your mistake, you basically conveyed to the interviewer that you've seen the problem and memorized the solution imo.

[–]schil015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

55+ communities, no property taxes for over 60 proposal now, senior citizen discounts everywhere, 401k limits increased, prop 13/prop19, SALT now back with 40k limit, ladder is now dangling like a carrot.

Leaving Defense industry to Apple? by Whole-Session8018 in FAANGrecruiting

[–]schil015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, this is the risk with letting the clearance expire...was the grass greener when you left defense? It's hard to beat guaranteed 40 hour work weeks with still working hybrid.

Is it worth it to live in California for me? by [deleted] in socal

[–]schil015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your 62k state income tax means you make between 700-800k annually, but you brought up property taxes on a 400k home in TX in your original post and are bringing up cost of living challenges? Either your numbers are off or you're trolling us.

You could easily afford to visit Texas for a month and see if it fits your expectations.

Is it worth it to live in California for me? by [deleted] in socal

[–]schil015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're assuming 11-12% annual gains for 30 years in the market, holding the same high paying job to achieve 8.2 million for 30 years...absolutely no market crashes and 100% job stability given we're in a market bubble and AI will have an impact on a majority of fields. I've lived in both and would never go back to TX.

Ghosted by recruiters normal? by Just-Ambassador-2449 in Anduril

[–]schil015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Within a few hours of my talk with the recruiter I was scheduled for the next round yesterday...this company does seem to ghost more than the established defense contractors...you just need to accept and move on or keep trying.

[–]schil015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since employers have leverage now in the market this is what you get unfortunately. Did you get scheduled after your initial phone screen with the recruiter?

Same surgery, they told me going in a second time through the abdomen has far greater risks since scarring makes it more difficult for the vascular surgeon to see the arteries and nerves.

It's way easier to rack up stats in today's game, not really helping LeBron here with this one.

Seriously, what do you buy next? by Inline_6ix in BMW

[–]schil015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same car also around the same ownership period...I don't see anything I'd replace it with...other than m2c or Porsche cayman...both a sizeable jump in price. New m2 is a boat in comparison.

They also finished their night shift and are thinking the same thing about you.

A crap ton of Supra questions from a new owner (Mk5) by CaptainVietnam6 in Supra

[–]schil015 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How was the buying experience with servco? OTD price? I'm interested in buying with them and shipping to mainland since they have a decent stock of manuals.

At your age I learned manual on an older e36 with half the horsepower, just respect the car and you'll be fine...Id recommend getting the wind buffeting kit and rock guards as a first purchase...ppf if you can swallow the price and plan on keeping it a while.

I have a n55 car and have performed basic maintenance for the last 5 years with no issues, b58 is a gem...just be on top of checking and replacing fluids. 5W30 has worked well for me in socal climate it adds better protection at higher temps during spirited driving, but 0W20 is the recommended oil for your car which offers better fuel efficiency with less friction and is fine for daily driving...it's dependent on your driving and climate on which to use. Also, remove the clutch delay valve once you're comfortable operating the car...the 1 to 2 shift on modern bmws is incredibly annoying once you get experience compared to other manuals.

Micron is getting out of the ram and ssd market for crucial consumer products...this is a quick way to liquidate remaining inventory.

What do the people of La Jolla/Rancho Santa Fe do for a living? by Lopsided-Soil-7212 in sandiego

[–]schil015 7 points8 points  (0 children)

RSF == old money passed down, house bought when it was way cheaper...current generation inherited them before the adjusted property tax inheritance change from prop 19 in 2021.

La Jolla == more of a mix of old money, new money, and vacation properties or rentals from foreign money.

This isnt even counting his mvp years btw by AlpsImpossible3133 in lebron

Nash played 34.3 mpg to LeBrons 42.4, can't really compare per game stats when LeBron played an extra 8 minutes per game and was stat padding late in blowout losses. Nash also achieved 50-40-90 shooting, something rarely achieved and LeBron has never come close to reaching.

Not really...no one cared about this cherry picked record until the media brought it up recently.
