PotentialProblem

Hard agree. I’ve found the dnd ChatGPT bot to be somewhat helpful here… but even this thing keeps defaulting me back to the 5e version.

We were early on, but largely haven’t had any real issues. The worst part has been trying to google clarity on rules and getting the 5e rules instead of 2024.

This comment makes me want to drive out to Salmon Idaho and buy a custom leather coat.

Anyone have any details on why the airships were problematic?

So, I’m an amateur… but this was confusing to me. I setup the board as you instructed and tried to play it out. You’re right. The way you described it is impossible…

So! I grabbed a pdf of the book you’re talking about and you missed the first two steps of the solution.

Solution is as follows: (White trading rooks is a winning position with the pawn so far up field)

1. Rxh7+ Kxh7
2. Kd5 Kh6

Next is where your part of the solution comes in.. where it discusses that white should move the king farther up the board instead of the tempting Ke6 position. (Because Ke6 would allow the Black king to take the pawn and open the door for the black pawn to become a queen or a draw)

Just realized that you beat me to replying to the parent comment with a similar sentiment!

:fist-bump:

Change happens, but my genuine appreciation of her never went away.

Now, I’ve been married well over a decade… and still… the best feeling is the time I spend hugging her in the morning.

We have ups and downs, lulls and adventures. Life’s not all beer and skittles. But, I don’t agree that it becomes mundane.

It’s not technically retro but I’ve found Pico-8 a great way to build retro like games! It’s pretends to be a console of a bygone era and gives a bunch of restrictions on size of game and 128x128 resolution.

The app comes with a pixel editor, sfx and music editor, and a code editor built in. The games are easy to share and you can play them on a mobile browser. On the downside, it costs 15 dollars for the app.

According to levels.fyi, Microsoft grants about 50-100k (25 percent of their pay?) in stock for their senior engineers each year. Amazon is closer to 200k (which makes up about 50 percent of their pay)

I guess you’re right in that it won’t really affect them, assuming the tax event occurs when the rsu gets vested and not at the sale.

It’d be more likely to affect folks who are in a pre-ipo company, gain a bunch of stock, and then sell it post-ipo. I know several folks at AirBnB who this would have impacted and several at stripe who this probably will impact.

That’s some drawbridge level thinking right there. Are you not also part of the problem? Because they arrived after you… they’re the problem? People moved there for jobs, same as anyone else who moved there. (For what it’s worth I don’t live in Seattle)
