So basically impossible = on private driveways or when they're doing improvements? This seems like a mindset I see a lot of thinking you need more car than you really do


I mean don’t most people use private driveways and milled roads on a near daily basis?

Yeah, you have this stereotype that you have partners at white shoe law firms who all went to Harvard or Yale and all the other lawyers doing real estate closings from an office in a strip mall.

In practice, there are plenty of lawyers who are in-house counsels for large companies, own successful law practices in smaller cities and large towns, etc. who make decent money often in moderate cost of living areas.


It also depends on prioritizing high quality work. Plenty of places would be happy to have you at below optimal efficiency for twice the time to make up for communication inefficiency.


Others have talked about using multiple apps with their markdown files, I think it shouldn't be an issue to have it seamlessly sync.


Which you could work around by archiving and then unarchiving the programs. I remember having to do a soft factory reset for one class before exams, rather than just clearing programs. At least they took the policy to its logical extension


Could you expand on this a little? What did HP do, I'm just not familiar


Alternative narrative: Online services are a winner take all market, so early players who survived the dot com crash due to great product leveraged that to gain monopoly share. Without government intervention they will dominate these markets to the detriment of the consumer (and the abuse of their data/privacy)


Ok, but that's just not true, at least in my case. I've tried to stop using Google multiple times. I still use Google not because of monopoly, but because every time I use DuckDuckGo or Bing or what have you, I wish I was using Google.



Except that the grandparent comment was showing how missing the best 2 weeks of days over 45 years really does wipe out a significant amount of gain.


Still a lot of money on salt packets, I love these rough approximations compared to our expectations
