Page has been up for four months. About nine hundred visits a month, twelve trials, three paying. One of the three is someone I used to work for, which I feel weird about even though he pays full price and found it…
Two adults, first time in the country, no language, and we are comfortable with spreadsheets but drowning in options for trains, regions and where to base ourselves. The quote is for an itinerary and booking…
Solo design work, currently five active clients plus two on retainer who go silent for a fortnight and then need everything on a Tuesday. Delivery is still fine but my mornings are pure context switching and I have…
Five of them are S3 to Redshift copies and one kicks off an EMR job. They still run every night and nobody currently here can safely change a line of them. Team is three engineers and we already use Step Functions…
18x18x24 with a drainage layer, substrate barrier, about three inches of coco and sphagnum mix, springtails added at setup, and a large piece of cork and a driftwood branch. Two weeks in there is white fuzz creeping…
I loved the hot classes I took last winter and at £18 a drop in I can't keep going twice a week. I have a small spare room, an oil filled radiator, and a cheap humidifier I bought for a cold. Has anyone genuinely…
Twelve days in mid November, planning Tokyo then Kanazawa then Kyoto, with about $2,000 for everything on the ground. I can read exactly nothing and my worry list is eating dinner alone, getting on the wrong train, and…
I do virtual assistant work on the side and it pays fine, but the day I stop, the money stops, which is the whole problem. I have about six months of evenings and roughly £3,000 I am willing to lose. I have already…
Right now I pay for none of it: free password manager, free mail, no VPN, no custom domain. I am willing to spend around 120 a year total if it buys something real, and I would rather pay for one thing properly than…
I resigned Tuesday with a written offer for 96k. My manager came back Thursday with 108k plus a title bump, effective immediately, no other conditions mentioned. I like my team here and the outside role is a slight…
Glasses wearer, 45 minutes each way, and getting a full face on and off over glasses twice a day is wearing me down. Modular obviously solves that. I'm told they're heavier and noisier and I'd like to know by how much,…
GET and POST to the same API work fine from the browser. PATCH gets blocked with the usual message about the preflight response not passing the access control check. If I hit the OPTIONS endpoint with curl I get a 204…
Three season UK hills, usually four nights. 8.4kg base: 1.9kg tent (two person, used solo), 1.4kg pack, 1.1kg sleeping bag, 550g mat, 480g stove kit with a 1.2L pot, 900g of clothing including a fleece and a hardshell,…
Second multi day trip. Reasonably fit, run a couple of times a week. Both times, days one to three I am dragging by early afternoon and asleep by 8pm, and then from day four onwards I feel fine and could go all day.…
Flock of four, all just under two years old, laid consistently through spring. Eleven days ago production stopped dead, not a slow decline, just nothing. Combs are red, they're eating and drinking normally, no mites I…
About 900GB of family photos, currently on a consumer 2TB cloud plan, and the hard requirement is that my partner can keep using it without ever asking me anything. I have a spare N100 mini PC sitting idle and could buy…
I have four weekends before I have to decide whether to take three months unpaid leave to build this. So the constraint is real and short: I want the strongest signal per hour of effort, and I will not get a fifth…
I own a push mower, a string trimmer and a pressure washer, all petrol, all past warranty. My shed has no bench and I have maybe 150 to spend on tools before this stops being cheaper than the shop. I do not want a…
Rural lot, no municipal supply available, and the neighbours on both sides say their wells came in somewhere around two hundred feet. The quotes cover different things as far as I can tell, and one of them is per foot…
Put 32 in the tank on Friday, and my banking app immediately showed 75 pending. The real amount appeared on Monday and the 75 disappeared, but for the weekend I was 75 down on a balance I was watching quite carefully.…
I tracked six months of bills and tried about a dozen of the standard tips, and only two of them showed up in the numbers at all. Before I keep doing the other ten out of habit, I want to hear which ones survived other…
68kg, first three day trip in September, hut to hut so water carries are short. Twenty percent would put me at 13.6kg loaded which feels enormous next to the gear lists I see here. I would rather know what people…
Four hybrid layers, a covered run, and a 20kg sack of layer pellets that I keep buying without ever noticing how long it lasts. I want a real monthly figure before I add two more birds, including whatever people spend…
Nine songs, four piece rock band, drummer is genuinely good but our practice room is about three metres square with a low ceiling and I have eight inputs at home. Everything else we can track ourselves and we have time…
Every guide I read gives me the same three phrases about anchoring and enthusiasm, and I have used them twice and got nothing but a repeat of the original figure. Both times I had no competing offer and I was fairly…
