What happened? I'm assuming you're speaking from personal experience?

They also banned me for using a modded third party app, so now I can't post or interact on Reddit. Which is honestly perfectly fine with me, since I don't want it support the website by creating content for it anyways
I can tell you from experience, there is nothing more distracting than having your manager walk up behind you and tap you on the shoulder while you're working on code. While this problem doesn't go away completely with remote work, at least you have time to compose yourself and bookmark your work before you respond
For real, I have not gotten sick since I started working from home. I did get COVID once going to a company sponsored event with 1000 people, but I call that "going into the office". Other than that, it's been pretty nice being healthy every day
Maybe they store the punch card info locally and don't double check with any databases on their side? It sounds really dumb, but that's the only reason I can think of
Yeah I order from Instacart from a Costco like 30 minutes away, so I always feel bad and tip well.
I think the original FIRE was much more radical- basically the plan is to save up only like 700k or so, move to a low cost of living area, spend less than 20k a year, and try to live off of stock increases and interest.
But honestly that life sounds kinda shitty, so people stopped talking about FIRE what all the other conditions and it just became more "save, invest, retire eventually"
