Signal? I thought I was downloading Snapchat! Oh well, innocent mistake. Nothing else to see here, let’s get back to taking healthcare away from millions.

Google Domains : https://domains.google : I love it because it’s easy to use, ties in perfectly with the rest of your Google account, and they have free private registrations (isn’t it like upwards of $12/year at other places?). Like others, they have a ton of the GTLD’s to choose from (.ninja, .business, etc, along

If you’re not paying for it, you’re the product.

Didn’t we learn from last time, when similar service was selling user emails to third party? Better unsubscribe manually.

Two days in a row I’m seeing posts from you that look like you’re getting paid to write about them. This whole post is just an ad for deseat.me.

Coffee makes me happy and supposedly happier people live longer.....so there’s that. ;-)

The “You” is relative, right? As in, you will live longer if I get my coffee in the morning?

Sure there’s a way to tactfully say “change or else”! I’ve done it at a few jobs - at review time, if what you said above is true, they won’t have anything major for you to improve for the next year (this is a much harder conversation to have if they do). Then you say “What do you see as my future with this company?

First off, a company not giving raises to anybody in nine years (unless they’re promoted) adds up really fast with the way math compounds. Let’s say you start off making $100,000 (just to make the math easy). If you’d had the fairly-typical 2% average annual raise per year, the first year, you lost $2,000 (102k vs

I’ve been there. You have to be pretty aggressive in asking for a raise (not like too aggressive, but direct and firm) otherwise you will get taken advantage of and underpaid.

I had a managerial situation once where a malcontent undermined my best team member’s work and just generally acted like it was a competition and not people with a common goal.

I know this is a terrible way to feel, but I’m not as sad as I should be that deniers will be hurt far worse by this.

I’m just going to vent here. If you’re offended, idgaf.

Last summer I moved to go from a 3-hour roundtrip commute from South Bay to Orange County to an ~8-minute drive to and from work, and that’s if I miss all the lights.

Maybe it’s because I have a degree in compsci and math, but I was really hoping this article would end with an actual number (“7 times per month”) based on the headline instead of a big wishy-washy “It depends”

I’m not at all trying to argue, I’m just wondering how you weren’t able to recover. In 2008, the Dow peaked at 14000, then bottomed the next year at 6500. It’s now at 22,000. Same with the S&P500. All losses should have been erased, unless you weren’t diversified. Did you lose a bunch and then sell, locking in those

Firstly, your 401K has not taken more than one hit since 2009. Secondly, I’m simply baffled how you could have not recovered by now from a halving when the DJIA has gone from 6627 in March of 2009 to 21200 today, especially when you claim that you didn’t stop investing after the recession. 

Also not to be fractious or rude, but I’m genuinely curious how you could be at less than 50% now than in 2008? Market returns over the last 8 or 9 years have been pretty good, certainly well enough to make up for 2009 losses. Did you sell off and stop investing all together?

Hah, if you need work to stay mentally stimulated, maybe you need better hobbies. I have learned a lot more useful things in my IT/Gaming hobbies than I have at most of my IT jobs. Go learn something, get some sort of skill. Do something for your betterment.

I’d guess unemployed people have more time to play games, rather than games contributing to unemployment. But it likely varies from person to person, I’ve got a chronically unemployed friend and all he does is sit on his ass and play games or watch youtube, but I blame his parents supporting that lifestyle rather than
