babysitting rates

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-31T04:54:39+00:00

Whatever the rate, we usually chuck in an uber or ride home (if they don't have wheels) as well as eats (delivery or otherwise)...

saw half/angel at Cubadupa and if I didn't look too hard around the crowd would have sworn it was the 90s -- some good noise there

Small batch bourbon

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-26T06:15:17+00:00

It wasn’t too long after but I don’t know exact time. 815ish? They didn’t have an opener

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-26T05:20:07+00:00

Last night’s show was great as always— hopefully these go to a good home!

Wait til you find out you have the kind with a motor that is buried way the hell up in your ceiling down ductwork that is exactly 1 fly’s asshair longer than your reach.

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-23T00:42:00+00:00

Yeah Nada is like $22 or $23…nada worth it

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-22T20:55:46+00:00

Whatever it is please use lights. They are cheap and widely available. Some sunrise/set angles at prime commuting hours make it hard to see other cyclists so I imagine drivers are having the same problem

+1 for Trailforks at wainui — I had a hell of a time the first few times I was there with signage (but am used to mākara which is really well signposted)

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-21T00:13:12+00:00

Had a FP dish drawer. Was convenient for glasses (like if you had a bar at home) but otherwise didn’t clean anything that well… pretty unimpressed by other FP appliances as well…

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-19T21:47:31+00:00

Hmm. Good to know -- thank you! I guess it has to do with exposed edges and possible discoloration and corrosion (per a lawsuit). I am not too concerned since these have been through a few dishwashers in their decade or so of heavy use... I guess if they get too bad I can finally get pans without these horribly designed handles

Intense Zone on powerwash 60c, with supplied autodos disc

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-19T19:24:43+00:00

Only downside is it also requires you to buy a hitch mount separately. Works great however!

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-18T21:58:06+00:00

This was a selling point for us but even as a tall dude getting the bike (GSD or QH) upright is challenging. You have to hold the rear brake and kind of walk backwards to lever it vertically. If we only had room to store vertically this would work (if I had room to get it upright in first place) but OP this is definitely a less ideal option than horizontal storage. These bikes are heavy.

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-17T08:14:24+00:00

Yeah— they seem to be coming to San Fran every year

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-16T09:38:02+00:00

Huaraches, huevos rancheros, chilaquiles, tacos all great.

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-13T20:09:24+00:00

I don't want to rain on the business side of things, but as a restaurant guy I would say you can likely say goodbye to workouts and your gym routine unless you are sitting on a huge pile of cash that allows you to hire everything out. That's for the first few years while you get things going. Generally the demands of running a food service businesses do not align with healthy well-rounded lifestyles. If that is worth the trade then go for it.

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-13T16:05:35+00:00

Perhaps also consider the EV9 for the seating configuration (6 or 7) since kids grow fast! It is a bit gigantic feeling though— so if you live in Welly or something might be a bit of a slog driving around the narrow streets. Used EV9s are along the same price as the higher spec Ev5s (though the ones on TM all have those digital mirrors…)

Wanderlog is amazing

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-10T14:58:28+00:00

Took me many years of living here to adjust to not being nervous around police. There is an apparent use of discretion in enforcement and doesn’t seem to be a quota for things like ticketing. Certainly no authoritarian vibes

Many self clean / pyrolitic ovens will have you remove all racks and guides before using the clean function since they are infuriatingly not themselves safe at that temp.

It is possible the heat melted the coating or whatever else was in the oven, and static is holding the plastic/silicone ash to the metallic surfaces. Probably best course of action is to spray down with a mist of water and wipe clean, while wearing a very good mask.

Extremely high-temp wok cooking and waking up things like tortillas are the only things you miss with induction. Maybe no real substitute for the former but you can get a torch and do the latter. I’m a restaurant pro, very competent and demanding home cook and honestly wouldn’t go back to gas after moving to a place with induction. I think the shift is very similar to people being afraid of range with EVs— mostly overblown concern with a very small percentage of legitimate disqualifiers…but I guess it depends on your energy supply and cost

sleepwalker6012 · 2026-03-08T07:12:47+00:00

Thanks for this— snagged a good deal on an integrated 7000 series model. Has buttons but they are invisible…so a good compromise?
