You realize the headquarters of Walmart are in Arkansas? There are plenty of very high paying jobs in significantly more affordable places. Also if you pay 1/4 less for a house, and add daily childcare it’s still gonna be cheaper. People literally do it all the time, the whole concept of the suburbs was created so that people could afford houses.

Your statement is incorrect. The Danish straits are considered international waterways and the gulf of Finland has a central strip of international waters (even though the Helsinki–Tallinn Tunnel never got started). So if you are trying to get technical, you should know your shit first. You cannot get to any of Scandinavia without crossing international space via train.

This whole mess can just be over if you just agree that the statement is wild. You’re pulling at straws to defend an argument that doesn’t make any sense.

You want to include Scandinavia, well if I include Alaska it’s ~5k miles from Miami to Anchorage. Point still stands its a wild comment to make.

This is a wild comment. ~3.8MM sq miles vs ~1.6MM

Lisbon to Vilnius ~2375 miles longest route I could picture Portland ME to San Diego ~3200 miles Portland OR to Miami ~3250 miles NY to Chicago ~800 miles Hamburg to Vienna ~600 miles

Maybe this is an event of what happens if I don’t know? I understand that this wouldn’t be something you could cold turkey, but what I’m saying is what if I’m that scenario you start questioning “do I need to know?”. When you’re in a comfortable mind space, think about what you would have done ~15 years ago when there was no access to an unlimited amount of data?

I’m definitely not a therapist so maybe this isn’t helpful at all but worth a shot.

I think a super important thing people forget is a good PMs ability to always know where the data is that’s been received. Can’t tell you the number of times there’s been conversations “we’re waiting on x from the client” and the PM being long it’s right here in the standard location. How they remember everything I don’t know.

Lol to people that believe this is left. This is central. You know there is a party to support these beliefs? It’s called the libertarian party, Google it. You didn’t have to vote for someone who doesn’t represent you as a person regardless of what the Internet says!?
