In my opinion, the probable burnout isn’t worth it. Burnout is like a heat injury, once you get it you become more susceptible to it for a time. I recommend maintaining a healthy work-freetime balance now so you know how to do it in the future.
Two years ago I became a first time homeowner. I’m moving in 6 months and am going to keep this property and rent it out. I cannot afford to buy another house almost anywhere in the US. I will be renting. However, I closed on this place with 3% interest and pay $1500/mo for the mortgage, plus about $250 for utilities. Round up to $1800/mo. Anyone buying at today’s interest and value with 20% down is looking at a mortgage of about $2300/mo, before utilities.
I absolutely resent this market, but I refuse to let this place go into the hands of anyone like Blackrock. And since I don’t care about maximizing profit, I can keep the rate on the lower end and help someone live here for a few hundred a month less than they could with a new sale. I can rent it for $1700-1800/mo to cover incidentals and repair and still let a renter live here for less than a new mortgage.
I’ve been toying with the idea of counting every dollar the renter pays against the mortgage and selling to them at the difference when (if) rates come back down.
Certainly not ideal, and a little bit apologetic, but in this situation it’s about as close as I can get to a win-win. Or least lost-least lost.
Built a new PC last night. Booted it into Windows 11 today. Second thing I did was disable copilot.
Suite: Judy Blue Eyes by Crosby, Stills, and Nash (and sometimes Young). Also, Wooden Ships, same band. Four Way Street is an outstanding album full of heavy hitters
I read those stories like 20 years ago. Good to see them coming up again! Is he still writing?
I love everything this man painted
Try the Expanse series. It’s long and very well done, but you can tune in and out and still get the story.
The Andy Serkis narration felt like watching the movies again, but with hours of bonus content, which is also the original content
Objects in mirror less attractive than they appear.
Honest typo. I keep using the swipe keyboard even though it sucks
I honestly have no idea if there are pictures because I listened to it, but it does have a pretty accessible breakdown of their anatomy, physiology, and evolutionary biology. Like David Attenborough, but with more words instead of video, and more of the author’s story.
Check out the book (or audiobook) Endless Forms by Seirian Sumner! It’s a fascinating exploration of the different kinds of wasps and their role in their environments. For example, some figs can only be polite (typo: pollinated) but a certain species of wasp and some wasps use antibacterial compounds to coat their nests.
I tried to read the Fountainhead twice when I was a teenager and I never got more than a third of the way. It felt like watching an old person try to remember their shopping list
Sounds like job creation to me
Oh HELL yes
I chose this. I’ve got my undergrad and 10 years of work experience. This has been a developing plan for the past 8 years, so it’s not an uninformed decision and it’s not anyone else’s expectation.
But yes, you shouldn’t do something just because someone said so
Agreed. But also, it’s a good way to communicate complex ideas quickly like Darmak and Jalaad. And many novel ideas come from “What if (blank) did (thing) but differently?” Like a huge portion of art history is just artists doing something another artist did in a different way.
