...Or a condition of establishing state residence?

It's really a stupid argument, likely based on the myth that renting is throwing money away. Most people still believe buying is always financially better (and they're wrong).

An example of the output it produces:

  Comparing reserved instances to running instances...

  m1.large:
     us-east-1b 1/1
     us-east-1c 1/1
     us-east-1d 1/1

  c1.medium:
     us-east-1a 4/4

  m1.small:
     us-east-1a 1/0

  --
  0 unused reserved (good)
  1 unreserved running (bad)

TL;DR can't be replaced with just "Summary", because it carries much more meaning than that. It's a preemptive retort to any criticism that the original text is too long. You need to understand the full evolution of the term before dismissing its value: It originated from commenters telling an author the text is too long or needs better formatting. Its use as a summary prefix acknowledges and sidesteps this issue.

Rather than simply saying, "Here's a short summary," TL;DR says, "I know this is long and you probably hate me for it, so here's a short summary to mitigate your unhappiness."

Two years of saved living expenses is great, but at a six figure salary, you can easily double that in 6 months. It seems a little foolish to back away so early.

Though I'm sure the short-term result of quitting must be wonderful. I especially liked the anecdote about staying up weeknights to watch B-grade sci-fi.

Best of luck!

As if they needed another blow to their already tenuous credibility, the site doesn't even validate.

I have zero confidence in this group.
