It depends on how you are with driving. My wife hated her 20 minute commute, I was fine with my 45 minute commute. But for a 45% increase in pay, it's absolutely the right choice IMO

That's only if I wear branded gear. There's a ton of products that don't emblazon their logo on everything; my shoes, socks, pants, undies, shirt, and jacket all lack branding.
Even my phone case is nondescript, and you can't tell what phone I use because I use a custom launcher.

Reply to comment by Entity408 in is there any wat to really feel bass from music without playing it dangerous volumes by Entity408
Yea, mine aren't even that expensive and honestly I forget that I'm wearing them! sometimes my ears will itch and I'll have to take them out to scratch, but they are otherwise quite comfy.

Yea, wear ear plugs. Good plugs will reduce the volume by ~20dB so you can still crank the bass without going deaf.
Audiophile plugs are designed to reduce SPL with minimal impact on tone, so you can get a good listening experience without going deaf (i bring my pair to concerts all the time, I love them).

Reply to ELI5: how is "productivity" measured? by Brickie78
Generally, your gut is correct: productivity is the measure of output over time. More output over the same time is higher productivity.
But industries without a hard output wouldn't be measured the same way. There isn't a concrete way to measure the productivity of teachers, though they could try to measure efficiency and extrapolate productivity from that (higher efficiency is "same output over less time" which is theoretically more productive).

Yea we could definitely use a good ol' alien invasion right about now. Something to really bring humanity together, because COVID sure wasn't it.

Reply to When we count to 10 we are actually counting 9 as we start counting at 1 instead of zero. by [deleted]
Sorry bro but you're wrong.
When you start counting, you start at 1. Then you reach 10. You will have counted 10 numbers.

If Trump doesn't need to wear protective glasses to look at a solar eclipse, then I don't need to wear protective glasses for puny things like arc welding!

It depends greatly on the product and your return history.
Stuff like this is easy for them to track, and you will be banned swiftly if you abuse it.

I wasn't trying to be precise, but to find the proper percentage, you could just divide the new salary by the old salary and then subtract 1.
60 ÷ 42 = 1.428
1.428 - 1 = .428, which is 42.8% just under my rough estimate of 45% hope that helps!
