    ICE or EV?

    Well, I live in a larger SFH with lots of street parking. My two neighbors and the people across from me don't use their garage for cars at all. I do use my garage for at least one car, and the other goes in the drive way.

    ICE or EV?

    Something under appreciated about EVs is how much nicer it is to have them in the garage. They don't leak oil, they don't emit fumes or crazy amounts of heat. If you have a two car garage and want to use part of the garage for something else (craft space, wood working, 3D printer etc) do you...

    Irvine Valley College - The Blue Ocean Strategy to UCLA

    No it really isn't, unless you're talking top 5. Someone from UCLA is not going to get any more special treatment than someone from Cal State Fullerton at my company, and most others. It certainly doesn't matter once you get to the interview stage either. You have to sink or swim without any...

    Can you even tell a korean woman from a taiwanese one every time? I mean, some of my korean friends joke that they go into restaurants in Irvine and the people will start speaking Madarin to them lol.

    Irvine Valley College - The Blue Ocean Strategy to UCLA

    I really think name brand colleges are over rated unless you're talking absolute S tier (CalTech, CMU, MIT, Stanford). I see a lot of Ivy and UC folks struggle to get into where I work (and some make it in), and some people get in with state schools or even without degrees. College prestige...

    EV/Plug-in/Other vehicles

    Rivian has bezos bucks backing it. I really like Lucid but that's the company I'd be most worried about disappearing in the next couple years.

    ICE or EV?

    I'm not sure I want a 'fancy' car as a daily driver, and i'm also worried about depreciation on electric cars. I don't care too much about my Model 3, because I basically treat it as a nice 'beater' car, it's comfortable, requires no maintenance, cheap to drive, and the back is filled with...

    Retail Openings and Closures

    If you get the app, you can always get $2 off any combo, and they regularly have even better promotional deals if you're not picky about which combo to try. The other day I got a Dave's Double for $2 through the app!

    ICE or EV?

    I love having an EV as a daily driver (tesla Model 3), but it's not as fun as my previous BMWs. I went to look at getting a weekend Porsche to scratch that itch, insane how much money they are for 8 year old cars with 40k miles. Might have to wait a few more years of RSUs...

    Javier's

    Rodrigos is some of the least interesting mexican food I can think of. Go to Super Mex, go to Taco Factory, Avilas, pretty much anywhere.

    Burger Thread

    I haven't been in a few years, but Paul Martin's at the Spectrum had the best cheeseburger hands down I've had anywhere. It used to be around $12, but I think so many people would order it compared to their otherwise less than memorable more expensive entrees, they raised the price every year...
