I'm currently feeling very happy with myself as a person and confident I can lead a life that feels full and meaningful. It's very strange. Not a feeling I'm used to

Queer Eye but it's five spoiled rich bozos attempting to climb Mount Everest
A terrible part of my brain wants me to play all the kingdom hearts games and I hate it
I officially got a job offer! I've been looking to change for a long time and the company really seems like a great fit.
Still need to figure out how to negotiate salary/benefits though b/c I have no idea how to do this 😂

RFC-15 is an important one: it's the initial proposal for Telnet! The first version of this program was written in late 1969 and it's a tool that I still occasionally use today, which is really amazing when you think about it.

If moving to a new city, is it a good idea to try and find a short-term place to live and use the time actually living there to find a neighborhood that's right for you?
(Asking for me: I could be moving to NYC)
