The Art of Living
- I want to learn how to fight Karate/taekwondo schools basically teach you dance moves. Learn a new move, get a new sticker (called belt). I want to learn how to discourage attackers by beating the living daylights out of them. Running is not an option. No interest in perfecting any art form through years of practice and devotio
- Metaverse, crypto, NFTs: A useless & expensive future The future, be it NFTs or Memoji or the howling existential horror of the Metaverse, looks so ugly and boring: it reflects the stunted inner lives of the finance and technology professionals who produced it. As the visual manifestation of cryptocurrency, NFT art combines the nuanced social awareness
- vote Is it better to try and fail or not try at all? 🤔 Art of living question. Is it better to take a chance at something high risk/high reward, fail, work hard to recover/pivot OR stay on the safe path in life and be content?
- vote EA Offer: Go remote or not? Hi Blind community, I have an offer from EA working either in the UK (Guildford office) or remote within the EU.

Almost exactly in between Long Beach and Downtown LA. I am a single guy in my late twenties, social and I love music and art. I am debating what would be a better place to live in Downt
- Hello San Francisco: How are you helping your community? Fellow San Franciscans, As we debate about how much our sign on bonus is, or worrying that our six figure salary is too low, there are hundreds of homeless people on the streets, local businesses shutting down, and no arts or culture can survive. In a city that has been dominated by tech, how do y
- Found life-changing book. It's called Keep Going by Austin Kleon. Definitely recommend for techies who need to get a life. Just picked a few favourite quotes: [1] "Social media has turned us all into politicians. And brands. Everyone's supposed to be brand now, and the worst thing in the world is to be off brand. But to be

I have no debt and about 5k in the bank and can live at my parents place if i really wanted to but e.e
- Too much rate race, I’m miserable!!! Aaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!! I can’t take it anymore, this rat race is miserable as fuck, all day every day I have to take bullshit from everybody, idiotic manager, backstabbing team mates, moronic team mates, team mates smarter than me who make me feel dumb, ...

- How to be financially successful in life? I was a straight A student during school and went to tier-A schools. At work, I have been meeting/exceeding expectations - but my financial gains are not even close to what I see folks post here.

- vote How hard is it to be a full time investor? I know the pandemic has got a lot of new people in investment (including me). But I've been developing a really strong liking towards it. When I was a child, my typical Indian parents scared me of huge losses in the stock market. Stock market = gambling, they said (prolly to keep me safe). So I nev

- Where to go now? I left my home country to find better opportunities. From a young age I knew that my country was struggling financially (thank you hyperinflation). Remote working was the way to go for me even before COVID. I started coding for fun at 14, doing machine learning consulting at 16 and saving money to
- Can you help sort this list of CS books? I am an EE who knows how to write simple C, MATLAB, and Python code. However, I have never received formal education in CS fundamentals and theory.

I can whenever I want within reason: - drink at work - work remote - play in the game room (ping pong, air hockey, darts, VR, PS4, and RPI arcade rig) - walk trails in a geese preserve sanctuary (lol)
- Marysville Appreciation Post Being hybrid (and eventually fully remote) means using the opportunity to live wherever I want. I chose to stay in Washington because of the no state income taxes and the nice appreciation on homes here. I was able to avoid the bidding wars and buy a home in Marysville for $600k, nearly half an acr
- How to learn spending money? I am a conscious spender. I would almost never pay full price or more than reasonable price on anything. I do research on every item before buying and always get the best deal I can(with consideration of cost of time and value gained). I do not buy unnecessary luxurious stuff and do not enjoy owning

- The game of RSUs Guys, Request you all to think of the big picture here and keep aside your caps of bias/affiliation for once.
