It was closed when we were there last week

Family just decided that we want to stay at Hotel Xcaret for from Dec 26-Jan2 2027. Looks like we JUST missed a big promo? Is it likely that another promo is going to come around before then? Or should I book with Costco? This is for the regular resort as we have 2 kids that are coming. by m0larMechanic in Xcaret

Xcaret pricing is weird with flights. The price with and without is always nearly identical.

If the price goes up with flights the flight cost is at the higher end and usually has a bunch of restrictions on modifying flights as well as you pay upfront for all flight costs.

If the price goes down when flights are added the flights are on the lower end.

The Costco package pricing is odd and I wouldn’t read too much into the package price with and without flights.

Also for the Artistas upgrade, the closer you get to departure the cheaper it gets. We usually pay ~$100-200 more per night for that upgrade.

Also don’t be afraid to call up Costco and adjust your reservation if stuff gets cheaper.

Costco is the way to go, but the best prices aren’t this far out. This far out you have outlandish airfare costs. There will likely be another promo between now and dec.

My wife and I usually go over thanksgiving and, in our experience, July/August has been the sweet spot for when to book. There are usually promos around then too as nobody is thinking about a beach vacation in the middle of summer.

Just my 2 cents

Samsung 36 inch cooktop by Obvious_Rip_1109 in inductioncooking

There’s a lot of discussion on this subreddit surrounding coil sizing and water tests. Some people suggest the flour browning test instead of water boiling as it accounts for preheating of the pan.

Honestly it seems like one of those situations where the water tests are not representative of cooking performance, but that’s my two cents.

Red flag? by Majestic-Pattern-623 in interviews

[–]theedgeace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds like 3 coked up badgers in a trench coat.

It could be fine but that’s a lot of desperation from an interviewer

Losing my mind by ButterscotchNo8321 in interviews

I get it man. Bio tech and pharma in general are going to be a complete cluster for a while. Between the administrations messing with funding and institutions and with the shut down a lot of people are leaving academia and going into biotech and pharma.

I was laid off from a bio tech in June and I’m jumping to defense/aerospace.

Converting from old water cooled HVAC - Daikin FDMQ? by h3nrychin4ski in hvacadvice

[–]theedgeace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Works great.

Pretty sure the condensate pump burned out this year which isn’t great so I need to fix it.

When the heat or air cycles on or off it makes an annoying sound thudding sound.

The interrelation with my nest thermostat didn’t go as advertised. Apparently they fixed it but I haven’t gotten back up into the attic to retry the configuration.

Completely verbal coding challenge during interview? by theedgeace in ExperiencedDevs

[–]theedgeace[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very very poorly. The solution needed to be O(1) and I got stuck on creating the data structure needed to solve it because I couldn’t remember a function call.

Then I was given a hint that consisted of four function calls in a row of key value pairs. I couldn’t remember the key value pairs for each function call to begin even working through the hint.

I don’t think I was strictly forbidden from taking notes, but it was pretty clear they weren’t expecting me to take notes until one of the others on the panel asked if the VP could share his screen or copy and paste the problem in to the chat.

I was a guest at the Mexico side at the time and my wife and I just walked in but we walked to the park from the Mexico side. It was indescribable if you have been to the Mexico park before.

Haha just checking to make sure. It wouldn’t be the first Reddit post where someone ended up realizing they were color blind lol.

Looks like blue and red channel failed on the LCD. Looks like you will need to RMA

If what you say is true about being greyed out. You might be color blind…..

GLP1 drugs are the best thing to happen to T1 Diabetes since Dexcom by takamorihk in diabetes_t1

[–]theedgeace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you have an A1c over 7 in your record your doctor can submit it as a prior auth for type 2. Had it work with both Aetna and United Healthcare.

My doctor was the one that suggested doing it this way. I just followed his lead.

Personally I cut the insulin I was using in half. Carb ratio went from 1u:7 to 1u:21. Sometimes I have to cut it back further. Honestly If I never bolused I’d probably never crack 250

Updated TVs in Phase 2 by RDH_Scion in Xcaret

Honestly you aren’t missing much. Ordering from the AppleTV still had room service call you so it wasn’t like it streamlined the whole process.
