This is a pretty interesting take.

Anyone concerned with cost of living should not be considering a condo downtown. Overall the COL in detroit is around 45% lower for real estate and over 25% cheaper groceries versus new york. There will always be overpriced condos available.

I’m personally holding out for a reader with higher refresh like the daylight. I might splurge on the next model.

This was the belief for a while, but it seems that isn't totally true.

"Pricing wise, we haven’t noticed anything that distinguishes Linux users from everyone else. They are no more cost conscious than Mac / Windows users. They are definitely willing to pay for software."

As an on-again/off-again linux user, I have paid for software or donated to many projects and it seems others are willing to do the same, however it is still a much much smaller group.

I love this. Reminds me of other articles about "flow" when you are so engaged you lose track of time.

This happens for me when solving hard problems. I can't stop thinking about it and work from the moment I wake up to when I go to bed. It looks like hard work, but it's energizing.

I'm not saying because of effort it's worthy of use. Just that it's not required and is a free resource. I also didn't compare to other specs, just common developer interfaces: https://blog.codinghorror.com/this-is-what-happens-when-you-...

Outside github and dribbble there is a large population of developers creating internal tools that abide by no UI/UX standards or even common sense.

There are many frameworks available. Which ones might be a better choice?

Don't forget, the material design specifications and frameworks are being made freely available. When you compare interfaces designed by that vast majority of developers, using MD is an enormous step up in usability and functionality. It also incorporates concepts that, while not being the most "accessible", are patterns the vast majority of users have become familiar with and can navigate without explanation. For example, interactions like gestures are not accessible or obvious but are commonplace and understood.

Constructive criticism of design is important and with these frameworks being open source, we can modify and "improve" as we see as appropriate. Google has invested enormous amounts of money, energy, and time into making this available for free. They are not enforcing these concepts, even on their own platforms so we should appreciate that they make these systems available if you choose to use them.

If possible, I would explore going part-time or even full time if you can make the schedule work with the current job. I am finishing a full-time masters program and working full time, and it is hard but perfectly doable.

Having at least a bachelors will open doors. My employer excludes many candidates without a degree.
