Pretty much everywhere except for the area inside the 495 beltway (right next to DC), where public transit is good. But even then, housing prices near metro stations are higher.
You probably want a car in most places, just like almost everywhere in the US.
The reason I barely use copilot is because it tries to write comments for me. I don’t get why they don’t have a button that says “disable autocomplete within comment blocks” (since the IDE knows which things are comments), but it’s so yucky feeling when it tries to write something I wouldn’t say.
I find the comments Copilot proposes is better than average comment quality for the code base I routinely work on: maybe you are so great you don't need any help ever, but that's not true for the average software dev.

Maybe the average is just so bad? The completions I get for comments are document what the code is doing, which is not something that I ever put into comments. It's always:
a) A highlevel (prefixed to the function/block/scope definition) list of steps, input expectations and output expectations for the forthcoming function/block/scope
Or
b) A note explaining why the code does what it does.
A comment repeating the code but in English is useless.
It's not that my comments are infallible, but if I write something wrong/silly it'll be caught during code review. similarly if there's a comment missing before some arcane nonsense nobody will remember in 3 years, then i'd expect a PR reviewer to tell the dev to add one.
Copilot just likes to puke very useless comments whenever I type "//", especially in autocomplete mode (I don't really use the chat mode).
NHI => Non-human identity, something I had never heard before reading this (even though i was familiar with the concept of identities for services, like service accounts or iam roles or whatever). I wonder if that's a common acronym.
He is 94. No matter how much experience he has, I question the value of anything he might say these days, at least in comparison. There should be other people to listen to by now - probably even from his same organization, if you want to.
I mean, this is almost the same as the external Office 365 screens for encrypted mail just with Google’s design language, so maybe it doesn’t happen as often in practice?
Pro doesn't have an option to join a domain in the default OOBE. I think that went away in some iteration of 10.
Pro definitely doesn't because the above procedure is what I always have to do to get joined to a domain without creating or using a Microsoft Account. (And then I've got a local account to clean up.)
I don't think this is the way it should be, but just to answer your question, you'd go through the normal setup for a single user PC, then join AD in the Settings app.
I’d note that (outside of Comcast possibly being mad at you breaking the modem), sometimes they push a bad update and you need to reset the modem, and last time I did that I needed to step through the initial setup on the WiFi network before activating bridge mode. So if the wifi hardware is broken you might need to jump through hoops to get through that setup (or swap the modem).
I’ll note that macOS doesn’t necessarily always let you do this the first time, it’ll pop a dialogue saying “hey, you’re cool with this app seeing (your files/other apps files), right?” I wonder if such a thing could be implemented in flatpak.
