Have you noticed improvement since you done that? I was looking at my digital wellbeing and it's terrible. I might just delete most of the social apps to ensure I am not on it so much.
Just enabled grayscale on my phone. I'm hoping I can defeat my phone addiction. I fucking hate that I'm on this phone all the time. I need to look for a eink phone. Does that even exist?
I suppose being a Sr. Software Engineer means you get to be a punching bag for upper management. Good to know.

I never had hated a job as much as I do for this one.
Like seriously, why isn’t Trump in jail already? Sheesh…
Adulting sucks.
What a shitty musician riding a shitty truck.

Gold is doing really well this year. It's up by 17.44% YTD. I have my eyes on some American Gold Eagles and Gold Buffalos. I don't want to stray too far off from US mints. Eagles/Buffalos are easy to recognize and sell. Although, I do like the Perth mints - Kangaroo and Lunar coins. Is a reasonable premium over spot less than 5%?
Many thanks! I badly want to go analog on a lot of things. This is a great start. I am looking into getting a dumb phone as well. Just need to disconnect for a while.
I love your setup. Does that fit in your pant pocket? Ya, I think you are right about not investing too much money in starting. I was looking at the membership course and it's $249 dollars. I am not sure if it would be worth paying that much, but as you said I could find free content on Youtube that probably show me the method as well. Although the book seems like a fair deal to use.
Our standups/meetings are spiraling out of control with our new manager. He loves to keep talking. I am not sure if he likes to hear himself talk or what, but the meetings have grown significantly longer since he started. The norm now, scrum can go up to 45 minutes due to "parking lot" discussions every morning with the ENTIRE team. I don't think everyone is needed for those those "parking lot" meetings. I am sure those "parking lot" meetings will do fine with just the manager and the product owner, but it does cut down in our time to get committed work done, so that forces us to work more hours after hours. It really is tiring, and burning the team out. This morning meetings doesn't even include our other meetings throughout the day. So many agitating meetings. We had brought this up in the past, but it seems it has fallen on deaf ears.
I think having someone watch the clock is a great idea. We are working remotely today and this meeting is still dragging. We are approaching 1 hour now. >.<
I will suggest a clock on our next retro meeting. This is getting out of hand.
These scrum meetings last so long! I thought the norm was 15 minutes. Going on 45 minutes.
Like if you’re high or thinking about getting high 🌿
Oh oh oh oh oh oh,
You don't have to go, oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go, oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go

I take that back. I was born in the right decade. Straddling between hippie 70s and 80s hair metal bands. Oh ya!
I was born in the wrong decade. 70s is the best decade ever.
You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire, yeah
The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire, yeah
You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire
