  • Manager. Ideally, you want your manager ready to fight HR to keep you before reminding HR of what they told you. Also, managers generally don't like their people going to HR about things without already knowing the situation ahead of time. They don't want to get a call from HR and be surprised, even if its something innocuous.

  • Its a course served at the end of a meal, typically sweet. If you're eating outside of that context it's a snack or a meal depending on how large it is and your specific eating schedule. I think she is probably right that its hers but also maybe wrong if she won't share a small taste of it with you. Or I would feel wrong not letting my wife at least taste my dessert if she wanted some but I was unwilling to share.

  • I disagree that they aren't as tech savvy as Millennials. I would say on average its younger GenX and older Millennials that have the highest tech skills, with GenX probably ahead. That's referring to percentage, not total numbers.

  • Did you read his actual comments? He literally made propagandistic claims in support of Republicans and in opposition to Democrats. Or do you agree with him that Republicans are "for the little guy"? Its complete nonsense made up to promote the Republican party.

  • One potential avenue is getting a job teaching English in another country. I've known a few people who did that for a year or two after college and enjoyed the experience. I think the pay is not great, and you're stuck in a classroom teaching a lot of the time, but it's a relatively straightforward path out of the country and into a life somewhere else, and with a company involved to expedite the process because they want to make money from you working ASAP.

    Getting your BS in CS can potentially help you as well, depending on the country you want to move to. Not an expert but when I was looking into this awhile back I found various countries will give preferential treatment based off things like education and skills. Being a college educated SWE or whatever can make you more appealing to immigration authorities.

  • Kitchen faucet is hands free if you put batteries in a thing under the sink. I don't think the last people used it because it didn't have batteries when we moved in. Works great though, turning a faucet on and off without touching it is really convenient when your hands are dirty.

  • Super rich guy tried to pick up my then girlfriend at an industry event after party kind of thing. She was not impressed by any of his shit. The look of disappointment on his face after showing off his $250k watch still makes me smile all these years later.

  • Yes. If you can afford it, dumping that money into an ETF like VT, VTI, or VOO every month for the next 10 years is very likely to result in you turning a profit. Start with a Roth IRA and don't bother with a standard brokerage account until you're able to max out the contribution limit. If you want to do anything more complicated than buy big low cost ETFs study up first and go slow.
