  1. IMO none of your 50/50 guys get drafted
  2. you'd be punishing way more "normal" people than you think. My wife has had a ranch in the family for nearly 100 years, without a trust that land would have to be sold by my wife and her sister due to the tax bill. Guess who would buy it up? Real estate developers.
  3. Tech has been pretty terrible since late 2022 imo. Solid, mid-level devs not finding work for 6-12 months based on some former colleagues of mine. And if you're in marketing or operations it is even worse
  4. is there a dress code for the 995ers or something?
  5. its weird how so many of the randomized players are white and half the crowd is black...like they mixed up the randomizer for the players and fans lol
  6. Maybe you NB whiners will zip it for a while
  7. Nearly 2 inches in West Buder
  8. I'll never understand why there is a preference of 20 somethings over 50 somethings in tech. I guess they think if you aren't using the latest BS language you're somehow not valuable? Or that a 55 year old can't possibly learn something new despite being in an ever changing industry for 3 decades? All the most valuable people in my org are 50+, and no, we aren't using Fortran or COBOL.
  9. As it literally says in the pic…
  10. pouring again here in west Buder
  11. I guess I follow you, but their job is to pull items out of a queue and work on them alone, with a Teams slack channel to ask any questions that might come up. About as ideal as a WFH job could be. Yet, because they are in the provost office, they have to fall in line with what the president wants. And regarding flexibility, there is none at UT. Butts in seat 8-5. If you have nothing to do and it is 430 and would like to get a jumpstart on beating traffic? Tough, you're sitting there clock watching.
  12. My wife's team, despite being completely clerical/administrative and never needing to interact with students or faculty, is likely to be forced back 5 days a week. So stupid. She is going to leave, they can take their 2% raises and shove it up their ass.
  13. 2021 was quite seasonably cool and wet too
  14. Damn...the wife and I have been strongly considering moving to NM to be closer to her family land. It's true that it's a place with high highs and low lows.
  15. I am not volunteering to do my part on that, btw
  16. I think we can all agree it was a lot better living in anywhere in the US when there were 50-100 million less people
  17. Can all of you go ahead and disqualify me now and forever more? If I want or need software I’ll come find you, God damn it.
  18. Would someone please stop flickering the lights!
  19. Salespeople should be launched into the Sun
  20. Just a reminder that Helobious predicted 70% unemployment due to AI in the next 5 (now 4) years
  21. My sister used to babysit him and his brothers. Originally from Austin but lives in San Antonio. It was a shock seeing him suddenly blow up on YouTube.
  22. Not that I disagree with the sentiment, but it’s a bit rich coming from that douche bag
  23. So they DO control the weather
  24. Banks has joined Sark in cultivating man tits since his time on the 40 acres
  25. Damn, the only way the most drought stricken areas can get any rain is when baseball sized hail is coming with it
