I agree with what you’re saying except I think the Barbie movie has provided a unique and well thought out message that manny have failed to convey and finally feel they’re being heard.

thats awesome that you were able to turn that around! I’m looking at doing invisalign here soon too.

I wish my wife didn’t have some gnarly arachnophobia. The “spiders are beneficial” argument doesn’t work :(

Yea my next promo is senior and honestly I’m probably just going to take that for the title and then fuck off. Based on my team’s current seniors it’s exactly how you describe it. Basically just manager light.

yeah I agree, just my unga bunga brain presenting itself

I very much want the ability to create more custom streams

fwiw I believe there is a proposal for this right now on github.

personally I’ll probably miss flair, and easily knowing my “karma” count (maybe I’m missing that?). me like big numbers.

Yeah honestly I’m not surprised, they can probably use their piles of cash to wipe away their tears. I work for a very large company as an SDE and when asked about how I feel about the manager track, I am met with awkward silence when I say I absolutely do not want that path. My manager probably doesn’t make a ton more than me, but they work at least 2x the hours with way more stress. Not worth it. These people chose these lives.

ya no kidding, I like to think I’m generally pretty tolerant of the fireworks, but I just moved and the neighborhoods around me apparently really felt the need to “protest” the firework ban. At least three fires reported, awesome protest!

If I based my concerns off of what I worked on, I’d actually probably be cool with it. Things are generally taken very seriously and the general discourse around how things are handled (at least to my knowledge) are wildly exaggerated. However, knowing just how things work end to end and how Meta tends to handle things, I think accepting something like the terms they lay out will give them freedom to do whatever they want with whatever they want.

That might seem obvious to most folks but I guess it’s more just be saying yeah they’ll take as much as you can give them.

Isn’t this part of the plot of Snowpiercer? At least the movie.

I might be in the minority here (also maybe I don’t want “DAE” questions coming either…), but it’d be nice if the political discussions stayed in their respective communities. It’s important, but it was getting to the point where EVERY thread would deviate into childlike insults at the political level.

absolutely wild, was going to (naively) give it a go, but I work on telemetry for a big platform and cannot in good faith use this product.

was fucking hot in western WA yesterday, my first year gardening and have had some plants bolt :(

edit: I shouldn’t have used the term bolt cause even I didn’t know what that meant before this season, it just means that a lot of my plants flowered due to stress from the heat, which often makes things like kale bitter, or spinach tough. In my case it was bok choy, and just now cilantro, but that was probably more from me planting late.
