Mr. Apollo posted:i wonder how long that can continue. the big hedge funds are driving up prices in the major markets and smaller reits are now looking to secondary and tertiary markets to buy. hedge funds are doing really badly everywhere, not just in real estate but interest rates are 0%. so investors will continue to throw money at hedge funds hoping for some long shot returns.

At least Googlers get childcare benefits, albeit crappy ones There's a similar petition at Amazon for childcare; they even found a local daycare willing to give a discount to employees with no cost to the company.

Most people think these techies live at work. The reality is most roll in at like 10am and out at 4pm. At linked in people complained that the breakfast ended too early at 10am (they shut down at 10 to prep for lunch at 11) because they would roll in at 1030.

the biggest effect of having a really low water table is that there's basically no vegetation in the area and everything looked brown, while an area with plenty of water underneath is bright green with tons of vegetations and looks like hobbiton there's place like Owens valley north of LA that used to be called Switzerland of California is now a desert wasteland with toxic dust storm because the water from nearby mountain snow that goes into that water table and lake is all diverted to LA, so the lake dried up and welp

I'm not sure what this stupid chart is supposed to show. In my experience directly dealing with physicians, you have to be a complete gently caress up to make less than about $150K per year, with the higher income ones closer to $10M. I'd say average is $1M. There is no career which has similar career earning potential with as much job security.
