Epitome and Penchant for me. Mocked mercilessly for those two.

I read recently that white plastic was the more expensive color to produce. I wanted to cite/link a source but internet search is frustratingly bad these days.

Edit: Not quite what I read but close enough.

ER was in-network. The nurse and doctor was also in-network. The second nurse, who connected me to the ECG, and the person who read the ECG was not in-network. No way of knowing at the time. Balance billing was permitted in that state at that time, which out-of-network provider used to the full extent.

I’m still salty about that.

I appreciate your work. (sincerely)

A couple of years back they removed a lot of unverified content that spanned a bunch of undesirable categories.

A few years ago, I spent New Year’s Eve flying solo. Passed the time with a mix of baking, movies, cooking dinner, a long walk, doodling, and a bunch of Sudoku games. The night was dry, so I stepped out close to midnight, had a sip of whisky under city lights to see the New Year in. Then I popped an edible and fucked off to bed with a Netflix Lullaby. Best of luck too you!

Googling everything gets boring though. I learned something today from your question :)

I got mine (Milwaukee brand) from the big orange box store which also happens to be available on Amazon.com for $25.

Not necessarily the direction you had in mind - for whatever it may be worth; I’m studying to become a HVAC technician.

I’m nearly 30 years into my tech career. After 3 months of the rigmarole of trying to get a new role post layoff, I’ve decided to throw in the hat. Love tech and comp sci, cannot face another asinine call about “non-regrettable attrition”, “more with less”, “right way to do scrum” — nor solve a pangram, design a parking garage or other leet code challenges just to get 2 hours into a 9 hour interview cycle. I’m so dammed tired. And apparently needed a little rant. Anyway, good luck with whatever you decide to do next!

What do you typically make, out of interest?

Logging off and packing up is your time not the companies! /s

(I jest but it wouldn’t surprise me if that’s policy in some places)

For daily, it’s $400 USD/month for me for with my insurance at the moment. Not trying to minimize your position, but offering another anecdote how wildly screwed pricing/insurance is. I just hope my insurance accepts the generic 🤞
