The team you interviewed with wanted you there three times a week, that's not a global policy across the company. Go look at roles in the security org for example and you'll see nearly every one of them lists Remote, United States as the location.

I've been in northern Nevada for the last 30 years and it's always been that way. When there's a boom in California it gets a little worse or the impact is felt a little more with things like housing, but it's not new. The best part is you get people that move here for the lower taxes complaining about the lack of services or the quality of the schools without the realization that those things are typically paid for with taxes. On the other side you have locals complaining about the "Californians" moving here and changing things to be more like California. I hear the same things from friends in Idaho that moved a decade ago to get away from the increasing housing costs here.

You aren't wrong to be skeptical of the author/purpose of the article but the claims that are being made are very likely to be true. I have a friend in my states unemployment office and another friend in a different states department of labor. Both have been complaining about the rampant, and obvious, fraud for months. Early in the pandemic someone tried to file a claim in my wifes name and it was shut down during employment verification but the federal funds may have been sent anyway.

I've been working from home for even longer and working from home when my children were born was awesome. Being able to be a bigger part of the first year for both children was great for our whole family. Having the flexibility to do so was great. I definitely adjusted how and when I worked but I wouldn't have traded that for anything.

I use the Steelcase Gesture and I would definitely try before buying. The single thing most of my guests dislike is the tilt of the seat. If I had to do it again I'd probably go with another Leap or the Humanscale Freedom.

Go through the password reset process with google and it's worse than most people think. The first thing it asks you is:

> Enter the last password you remember using with this Google Account

Which of course the attacker knows because they changed your password. If they don't know that you can click try again and go through the various two factor methods set up (hardware token, totp code, sms) and then the very last and also terrible option is putting in the date the account was created. If your account has been owned the attacker likely knows this too. Advanced account protection is pretty much the only option if you've had your account breached at any time.

It's worse than this though. My colleague had his sim replaced by an attacker in October of last year even though his account had a note on it specifically to prevent this without the account holder being present and showing photo id. Not only can the customer service rep at your carriers store do this but so can the phone reps at all the other stores that sell phones for your carrier such as best buy. The bottom line is that SMS/phone numbers shouldn't be an identifying factor for security purposes.

This is where I'm at. If it doesn't say ships from and sold by Amazon I don't buy it. This is true on other sites that have integrated third party sellers as well. It's not worth the shipping delays, possible counterfeits etc.

They've been using that as an image hosting domain since at least 2015.
