It's been a couple of decades since I read Siddhartha and I am very curious how my take on the book will be different from my younger self.

Unfortunately, I'm a side-taskbar user and there is no equivalent registry fix. I had to pay for a 3rd party tool.
someone I respect in a domain of life I respect (could be music/athletics/relationships/humor/whatever but ultimately it is a reason I enjoy them as a person and in times of adversity can't dismiss them as a disposable generic employee)
moreover, the above attribute also often demonstrates a healthy life balance outside of work, and this will help prevent workaholic burnout which is a very real pitfall ina startup
someone that has motivation/ambition in a domain(s) that I do not (maybe I can do a particular skill and even at a competent level, but I'd rather have a partner that enjoys it and reads up about it in their spare time even if they aren't as "good" at that skill as I am right now)
someone that has been challenged in life in some fashion. again the domain isn't as important as the experience of facing pressure/adversity and finding that extra gear within oneself to emerge. and furthermore then wanting to start the next challenge despite having already gone through the wringer. in my experience there are people who thrive under pressure and those that tend to hide/crumble when challenged. you obviously want the former and some that has been tested.
there are plenty of other attributes that are covered by great replies that I won't repeat. I felt these seemed a bit distinct (at least when I posted) and worth mentioning
All that is to say that Coinbase and Mt Gox were operating in completely different leagues of sophistication.
The advantage is the router itself is literally routing all the traffic and thus even hostile clients (e.g. smart tv) that ignore the (dhcp provided) pihole DNS still have to pass their traffic through the router and thus it always has an opportunity to take action on the packets.
As was mentioned in a sibling comment, even with just a pihole and a non-openwrt router you can still configure your network to force all DNS traffic through the pihole but it is more config and more error prone vs the single openwrt router network.
That said, even just the "built-in" Multi-Account Containers will allow you to pin a domain to a particular container - i.e. amazon.com will always open in a Shopping container, wellsfargo.com always in Banking, slack, github, netlify always in Work, twitter only in Social Media, Gmail and YouTube in Google, etc.
Containers themselves are effectively just a label and a (limited) privacy sandbox. So far I have experienced no performance hit nor other issues so I create new Containers at will. Thus if you have 6 gmail accounts you can create Google1, Google2, and stay logged into all of them all of the time.
Additionally, I use the Cookie Auto Delete extension to only persist specific cookies to specific containers while all other cookies are wiped. I can maintain my YouTube subscriptions in a container that stays logged in my primary gmail account while being able to also watch other random videos in my Random container without polluting my real account history.
For work I have about 6 different accounts that I can be actively logged-in with; each tab is a different user with an entirely different role (for testing) and all can exist side-by-side.
As other have mentioned, you can always right click on any link from any container and open that link in a different container.
For me there is no going back to "standard" browsing. I can remain independently logged in to whatever I choose and feel confident those cookies are segregated from any other browsing activity. (obviously my IP is the same and some forms of fingerprinting surely still manage to track me in some manner)
Recently I added the Containerise extension which allows for even greater granularity with the always-open-in-a-container feautre: it allows for subdomain & even regex-based url rules. So, for example, console.aws.amazon.com can open in an AWS container (logged in my work email) while amazon.com can open my Shopping container (logged in with my personal email).
TLDR - containers plus extensions are extremely flexible and powerful
ZeeWise is a very small software company that provides data aggregation and reporting for the franchise sector. We've actually been around for over a decade and have some very well-known customers despite our modest employee count. I'm one of the original tech founders and just took over as CEO. We're beginning the process of overhauling our product/tech stack.
We are looking to hire Software Developer(s) to tweak/update/transform our somewhat legacy platform into a more refined and scalable product.
Our stack is .NET and MSSQL with Angular (moving to Vue) on the frontend, however we're essentially rethinking everything so convince us why we should switch to your favorite stack instead of optimizing what we have.
Our platform has a lot of moving parts and though we are open to junior developers we're too small to be a training grounds/stepping stone position where you'll be compartmentalized to one tiny aspect of the product and playing ping-pong most of the day. We're ideally looking for senior/experienced devs (dare I say "full-stack") that are excited and confident about making systems architecture decisions that will have immediate real-world implications for tens of thousands of small businesses around the world. If you're junior but are confident in your abilities this might be an incredible opportunity and definitely don't be afraid to reach out.
We realize it is a very competitive market out there and are definitely prepared to pay competitive salaries for the right people no matter what level (junior/mid/senior) you're at and we're also prepared to negotiate ownership stakes/substantial stock options. As mentioned we're a small team and all have a very healthy work/life balance and a relaxed but productive work ethic.

In all honesty the above is a copy paste of my last posting and some minor tweaks since then:
We're primary looking for a front-end Vue/React guru to implement (1) an MVP of a new product (2) a refactor/redesign of our existing product. The redesign is already 90% complete while the MVP is in active planning at the moment but the initial (alpha) phase is also mostly ready for implementation.
In a perfect world we're looking for someone that loves javascript/typescript and has launched a few SaaS products but also either has experience or informed opinions about backend features (when to leverage existing tools vs build yourself, boring tech vs bleeding edge, PaaS vs self devops, etc)

Right now we're prioritizing for an experienced front-end dev that is proficient in VueJS/React. I'm personally partial to Vue because of the easier drop-in to a legacy project however there is no denying React's popularity (for good reason). That said we're primarily interested in finding quality team members since we're small and any new addition is going to be fundamental to our future.

I stay a subscriber because of (1) the size of the catalog and (2) the 'discover weekly' constantly delivers me new songs/bands that I thoroughly enjoy and would never have discovered on my own
one thing that is without dispute is that a password manager will not reuse or slightly vary the same password which is what human beings pretty much always do.
also some popular ones have integrations for reissuing credentials for major sites. in theory if there were some huge compromise you change your master key and reissue as many pw automatically as possible. then focus on the ones in the list that you know have your credit card saved or are essential for other reasons (npm credentials). you also literally have a list to go down at the point anyway. what is the alternative scenario if your 'same password everywhere' pw is compromised ... try to remember which websites you use and might be the biggest issue and literally manually change every single one?
