Does...that make all those things okay then?

Personal experience:

Argo workflows and Argocd (vs. something like Harness) - Requires a handful of customizations to get it parity, but it's really useful out-of-the-box I think. Good ol' Jenkins works too, I suppose.

Soon, OpenTofu - unfortunately Hashicorp is going IPO which means bad news. OpenTofu is the fork of terraform.

Podman - Docker alternative. It's really close, especially with Podman Desktop. I had a few issues that I ran into, but there are probably workarounds.

Vscode / codium - yeah it's Microsoft, and has tracking. But it's popular for a reason.

Welcome back! ヾ(⌐■_■)ノ♪

Week is going alright. Found out I'll be moving ahead with an interview to the tech stage, after that it's a full panel then the decision. Got a few other options but admittedly this one seems the best so far in terms of benefits and pay. I'm gonna try to crash course myself and refresh my knowledge.

Outside of that, I'll be "enjoying" a Pacific NW heatwave this week. At least I have AC, though.

Beehaw disables downvotes - so it may be that it shows from the instance, but technically it has "zero" downvotes.

Intuit software, specifically TurboTax. This also may become obsolete to replace if the IRS will give out free software as rumored for next year, but I'm surprised nothing as intuitive ^pun ^heh or user-friendly has popped up. Maybe I need to do more research, not sure.

If you deflate the tires, doesn't that reduce the mpg of the vehicle?

I'm a cis male, so I can't speak from the perspective of an LGBTQ+ person, just an ally. I definitely want to echo that Eastern WA (east of the Cascades) is much more conservative than western WA. As someone who lives in Spokane and moved from the west side of the state, I hear can be a better place, but frankly it's relative to eastern WA and Idaho. Spokane is a short drive (~30 minutes or so) to Idaho, and even less-so to its counterpart Spokane Valley. Even then, it's a stark contrast between north Spokane city and south Spokane city.

Puget Sound, specifically King county, will be the best place in my opinion for Washington. The greater Seattle metro and i5 corridor is probably the right place to start looking. Keep in mind the further from Seattle and Capitol Hill you go, the more pockets of right-wing you find.
