This list somehow doesn't have "converter" (to refer to a television remote), which was the first word to unexpectedly baffle my American coworkers the first time I said it, to my own surprise.

This model has the chance to succeed based on that alone.
As to why Koenigsegg doesn't get the rep, I'll take the outside opinion that it's because their name is too inaccessible whereas "Bugatti" slips easily into rap lyrics.
For OP, I feel there might be qualifiers that preclude such opportunities, like total comp or location. If you're looking for comp above the mid 100s or very low 200s at max, you're gonna struggle to find jobs that meet your criteria. On the converse side, these opportunities can be found in mid/low COL locations, so that number goes a lot farther.
"The law’s supporters have, at times, minimized the ban’s impact on the First Amendment, citing the mistaken belief that TikTok users can simply move to another platform. From a constitutional perspective, this is nonsense. The government can’t justify shutting down The Washington Post because readers can simply buy The New York Times instead."
The fact they packaged it inside a funding bill that would have been politically unpopular for Congress to oppose also makes me speculate that they felt it wasn't strong enough to stand up to scrutiny on its own merits
I have see a surge of bootcamp-esque places in tech destinations that seem to be offering a "find the spark again" (and/or "fill the resume gap after the layoff" if you're a cynical prick like me) that seem to cater to the already educated/experienced crowd, which I feel are potentially viable.
As someone who did a year-long bootcamp-esque program in web development at a community college, followed by employment in tech (during which I picked up a BSc and MS in Comp Sci part-time while working), I can say that a very good bootcamp program can teach you to code in a very skilled manner, well-and-above what you pick up in a BSc in CS.
And unless you work early on at a place with a big emphasis on properly educating and mentoring juniors off the bat, you can have a big leg up with raw coding skill imo.
You can keep the bus rolling for a surprisingly long time before the wheels fall off.
Just as something to be a quick "oops, didn't want to use that image, I want to go back to how the site is when I first visited it", and essentially wipe the state.
The history stuff is secondary, since that was my second instinct after trying to find and hit a "home" button, just from my personal UX perspective.
Minor UX notes: - clicking the header doesn't navigate back to the "home" screen - singular page history (so the back button doesn't take you back to the previous page state)
Combined it made it not intuitive for me how to "get rid" of the selection I'd created (I eventually figured it out, but the previous two points were what I intuitively tried first)
As you said, a "weird" movie doesn't keep their attention, so they just distracted themselves with their phones to kill the time until the next movie.
As an aside, the funniest instance of this phenomenon I ever encountered was when I was at an evening screening of an incredibly embarrassing idol anime movie at an AMC and two extremely out of place people walked in partway through, lasted about 5 minutes and then had to bail when one of the singing numbers started lol.
I'd like to know if the derived dollar values are the historic actualized or the current value. Because historically there was a real fortunate time to have your RSUs skyrocket, but now that things are stable/declining is the TC still that high?
Which itself begs why they'd need this level of detail on the codebase.
