Often the followers seem to self select. If someone’s advice was crap/didn’t work for you at all, you stop paying attention to them - if it worked you might think they’re a genius
Austin also has hundreds of miles of land around it in all directions. Coastal cities are always expensive because of the geographical barriers causing over half of potential lands to be water and having a lot of bottlenecks to get into the city
I mean if your SO will only watch “Minions” straight to video movies then maybe you just need to find one of the other million activities out there to do together.
I just don’t see that as a problem. I’m not looking to date a clone of myself. That would be boring and unhealthy as I’d re-re-inforce my worst habits without any counterbalance
Exactly - I don’t go to my wife to gush over the latest database optimization details I discovered expecting to have a deep technical discussion. Maybe the executive summary. I talk to my coworkers or friends or online people who are excited about the same details. If someone can only feel close to you when they speak of crossword puzzles I wonder if they’re on the spectrum or need to join a crossword club or something.
We do have a baseline of shared philosophies and views but even there we often find that we slightly disagree on details.
Setting boundaries is a huge secret skill. I force people to explicitly tell me that i must do something extra and it almost never happens and I get to work a 35-40h week.
Boss messages me to look at something after hours? I won’t read it. If it’s a problem they can explicitly tell me that they expect me to be available at all hours and then we’ll have that discussion. And in that I’ll say that it’s not acceptable for me but I can split my day in two if it’s important for me to be available late in the day. If they want me to do calls at 5am I’ll say it’s doable and then I’ll end my day at 1pm of course
What you could do is compensate for that by ending your day an hour early or by taking a long lunch break. You were working late or early unwittingly and solved a problem. I’ve learned to notice when I’m just spinning my wheels to hit that 8h for the day and now I just stop for the day when that happens. Then if something does come up I don’t end up doing overtime on top of everything. I don’t feel guilty since I get paid for results, not hours in front of my machine and because I know I can’t stop thinking about the problem in the shower or when I wake up in the middle of the night
The premium would have to be insane for someone not to go bankrupt when they have to cover a 600M theft or even the more common 50M level. There are only a handful of profitable DeFi companies to buy the plan and I’d imagine most have a policy of YOLO when it comes to security
Probably never were. It’s only lately that parents are expected to watch their kids every step until they turn 18. Back in the day you’d just tell them to go throw rocks in the well with the other village kids and come back at sundown
