Today was my last day at nVidia… We had a combined welcome-goodbye dinner last night for a couple of us for various occasions of comig/going/relocating.
I’ll miss the tons of next gen technical discussion on the internal mailing lists, it’s quite the experience to read so much stuff, half of which is non-public NDA material :3
Now I can enjoy whatever free time I have left

Also started looking for a new place to move to, I love my room but it has its problems and I’d like to step it up a level sometime next year. My minimum requirements would be a separate bedroom and living room (how absolutely fucking luxurious, ahaha čĶįŽ), so 1LDK or 2K/2DK
The minimum requirement for the location is that it needs to be 1 direct train ride from Shibuya, reasonably quiet, no more than 5-6 minutes from the station, (but farther than 1-2 mins, otherwise it’s bound to be too busy and noisy) and the ekimae has to come with a good selection of restaurants/shops/whatever.
(Also world peace and a pony)
Some candidates:
- Meguro
Pros: on the Yamanote line, so I can stay out late almost anywhere. Reasonably close. Busy ekimae.
Cons: probably expensive, might be loud - ShimoK
Pros: it’s ShimoK! One-shot access to Shibuya and Shinjuku, indie music scene, good shopping.
Cons: might be the victim of an aggressive urban redevelopment project in the near future. Also, too many gaijins. - Jiyuugaoka
Pros: recently popular place, not too far. Has a busy looking ekimae and the only reasonable Hungarian restaurant in Tokyo.
Cons: might be expensive. The two lines aren’t that useful (Toyoko to Yokohama, maybe, sure, but Ooimachi-sen is useless for me) - Kichijoji
Pros: awesome ekimae, also it’s right next to Inokashira park. Might be cheaper as it’s further away.
Cons: it’s really fucking far away, the inokashira-sen express covers it in 20 minutes, but that train is a crowded nightmare during rush hour. No chance to take a taxi home, it’d run me upwards of 7-8000 yen at least - Omotesando (comedy option)
Pros: so central, but a few streets off of the main drag and it’s actually really quiet. Good (real frickin expensive) shopping. The only place in Tokyo with hotter women than Shibuya. Also, I could almost walk to work.
Cons: can’t afford to live there, especially given the above requirements
Need to think about this moar (such as what percentage of my would-be salary will be sunk into not living in a goddamn hole in the wall)
ekimae? moar? Kicsi dzsozsi is cool!
