Breaking news, money making company found a way to make more money.

That one is great!

I keep mis-remembering one line as "I'm not unreasonable, I mean at some point you're gonna hafta die"

Is it significantly different from any of the other books that rely on self-tests to help the reader pick out a career to pursue?

Oh boy, more business targeting people who don't have good money management skills

Not everyone knows what they're good at.

No matter how many self-tests I took, I would never have picked the job I have now that actually fits me well. As much as I tried to keep it objective and think about my experiences with the work I've done, I would consistently pick something that I thought other people would like to see me do, or something that seems easy.

Turns out I really enjoy a job that I need a lot of training and practice to be good at, and that others often dismiss as basic work.

Idk what kind of person can figure out their own strengths just by thinking about it, and what makes them different from me. I just wanted to point out that self-tests aren't always the golden key to launch you into your highest potential. For me, it took the insight of other people who have been with me for years to help me put together what I couldn't see in myself.

Edited for clarity and to add about the insight of others

Paying for Amazon Music and using Amazon Music are two different things.

What a garbage model of selling a TV and subscription

There is one TV that is free because it comes with banner ads across the bottom, and a camera to verify that people are watching.

Their reasons will remain a mystery. If they don't want to tell you, you'll just never know.

As for me, I use generic medications whenever I have to pay for it out of pocket. If insurance covers it, I'm not putting in the effort to make sure I get generic.

The entire soundtrack of both Mama Mia movies.

But, a top speed of 80 comes with nice acceleration to keep up with traffic or get out of a sticky situation

This took me way too long to understand what's going on

It's the second one in my downloads, because I already posted the #1 picture in a previous comment

Just wave your apple device near the door and trust it will open every time

Not watching has a much better moral argument.

Aha. Saved me a click there

Unless the backlash is a huge percentage of users immediately stop using the service, they won't care. They already calculated how many users they'd lose and how much more profit they get to bring in off of those who decide to stay.

I think semi-retirement is the way for me. I like what I do, I just don't want to do full work weeks until the day I die. However, I would not mind slowing down with age, and ending up working fewer days a week until I'm old and dying.

At some point, I'd like to leverage the experience I'm currently building to get very comfortable on-site or in-office hours, mixed with work from home hours, and then slow down from there until weekends are longer than the work week towards the end.

I've recently learned that I had a constant headache for most of my life. Chronically plugged sinuses did that. Whenever the headache got worse than usual, I would not feel a headache, I would feel that head pain as nausea.
