Know how many times you’ll find yourself out and about and suddenly needing to perform an emergency, involuntary vasectomy and then discover you left your tin snips and turpentine at home?
Only once. You only make that mistake once. Keep it in your daily carry.
I suspect the real solution is somewhere between that and corporate land acknowledgements.
A full stack developer is either a back end developer that has no business writing front end code but does it anyway, or they’re a front end developer that has no business writing back end code but does it anyway.
Or they’re perfectly capable of doing both because they’re at a startup that’s years away from running at scale or having to worry about performance and security.
If the part of an iceberg that’s exposed to the air is hacked away, the rest of the mass will float up and a new section will be clearly visible.
This process can continue until there’s no ice left at all.
I’m only talking about ice, of course.
“PRs are always welcome”
Pretty much. It’s a tired analogy, but the “unawakened” people in The Matrix come to mind. They’re not helping the cause, but it’s not right to declare that they’re evil or deserve hate like OP was suggesting.
They don’t know any better but that doesn’t mean they deserve ire. They’re reasonably reacting based on the information they have.
The difference between a wanted murderer and an unsung hero depends a lot on how much, and which, media a person consumes.
I like to assume the average person is apolitical and pays only a passing glance at headlines.
git blame
Ah, shit.
“You use Arch, now, btw”
Really? I backed it what feels like over 10 years ago and still don’t have a finished game.
Chris Roberts is the Elon Musk of game dev.
Didn’t he write that as a joke after they went out drinking one night early in Netscape’s development?
Not too many drunk pranks get codified for years in standards documentation!
“No, no, dig up, stupid!”
I’ll talk all kinds of shit about that movie, but I’ve watched it end to end more times than most movies I’ve seen, and it’s never been a hate watch.
My favourite urban legend is that there’s a special desk at the Vienna airport for people who accidentally flew to Austria instead of Australia.
That is absolutely false.
Corporations can only donate on your behalf, so they get no tax benefits whatsoever. They cannot claim the money you donated as income nor can they donate it under their own name. The only thing they can do is use it for PR and tell the public “they helped raise $x for this cause”.
That said, if you donate a non trivial amount to charity, you should do it directly with the charity so you can get a tax receipt and write it off on your personal taxes.
Is this still available?
It’s the same picture.
This could be as innocent as “hiring manager was on vacation and we still have some interviews planned” or “our interviewer was caught fornicating with a chicken and we’ve had to make some internal changes”.
I would take it as a positive sign that you’re still in the running, but like others have said, I wouldn’t pause my other job searching tasks to wait for this one to play out.
Kobo works fantastic.
If you have the ability, set up calibre and calibre-web and you can configure your Kobo to use your ebook library as the “store”.
Kobo also has at least one plugin/mod that replaces the whole reading UI with one with more features. Check out KOReader for that.
Apart from that, though, it makes little difference what ebook you get. If it allows you to load your own ebook files on manually (afaik they all do), you can do whatever you want.
Some episodes are legendarily funny, but a lot are very forgettable. It’s more of a cultural bellwether.
Seinfeld was one of those shows that talked about certain issues that weren’t broached on network tv. I think the masturbation episode was the first time it was even alluded to on any mainstream tv.
But at the end of the day it’s a sitcom with laugh tracks, so it doesn’t age super well.
