Where would you move (within the US) if you could move anywhere? And why there?

Currently in NY, lease is up soon, working remotely forever. Never lived anywhere else in the US.

I love nature, animals..snorkeling, horseback riding, working out gives me life.

We're moving to NC, low cost of living, low taxes, great people, lots of horses. Also, there are a lot of transplants from NY there.

Car or no car? Any family? Big city a requirement? How often do you snorkel? Ride?

No family. Don’t have a car but can consider getting one if needed. Would snorkel and ride as much as possible - both give me a ton of joy (spent a while in the Caribbean’s earlier this year, went to the beach 2-3x/week prior to work in the mornings + at least once during the weekend), rode 2x/week. Big city is not a requirement as long as there is an international airport within reasonable distance.

You'd be surprised how beautiful Northern Arkansas is. Maybe also the Carolinas?

I'd love to stay in the Bay Area, or otherwise somewhere along the Pacific Coast between Malibu and Eureka. Otherwise, somewhere in Washington state or Oregon, or somewhere like Montana, Colorado, or Wyoming. Other major cities would be NYC, Austin, or DC metros.

I’m from NY and lived in DC for awhile. I really loved it. A smaller version of all the things I loved about NY. Plus easy to get to NY when I wanted. Or anywhere on the easy coast. It really just depends on the lifestyle you want.

Snorkeling and horseback riding? Vieques Puerto Rico is your place!

If I could afford the same quality of life is move to San Diego. But realistically Colorado is probably where I'd move tomorrow to if given the opportunity.

So I wanted to share my experience and see if it helps anyone else out there. I was not an alcoholic, but I was definitely alcohol abusive. I would go out and drink and then be completely blacked out and not remember anything. I would also do and say stupid things that just made no sense and I even got in trouble with the law a few times.

One day, my friend and I after a few day bender decided to take some LSD because we were hung over and just wanted to not drink and chill. (Cont.)

The imposter syndrome is finally gone!

Q: for FAANG recruiters, do candidates get a reject stamp after failing even at the later stages?
I advanced to the last stage at
Facebook (Meta) around a year ago but failed on my last interview, a combination of not being familiar with the process and not having chemistry with the interviewer.
A friend who is a hiring manager recently recommended me and this time without even a HR call I received a straight up thanks but no thanks email.
Does this mean I’ve been permanently black listed?
