USA, tech start-up. “unlimited PTO” and probably about a month’s worth per year. Also full WFH but that’s because of a medical exemption.

While I’m at my desk, I work extremely hard but don’t usually work more than 35ish hours per week as I my brain can’t sustain much more.

Path of Exile, I just love the game so much.

I watched a YouTube video where a dev was optimizing unity code to match the size of data that is sent to the cpu using structs just like this.

Oh man, sad that’s the customer service cause I deeply love my loops. I was already carrying them with me everywhere I went so I grabbed a pill keychain thing and attached them to my keys so I’d never forget to grab them.

I’m a backend dev and the last 3 companies I’ve worked for are exclusively apple only. It feels, to me, like apple took over US tech startups. Obviously pretty poor sample size.

Australian, just like their toilets spinning water the other way.

Over a million Americans died to covid, and his administration chose to not send ventilators to blue states because they didn’t deserve the help.

The joke in Team America is that the destruction they’re trying to prevent be 9/11 times 1000. Well, covid had gotten us to almost half at 1.2 million. https://www.pnas.org/doi/epub/10.1073/pnas.2313661121

He and his administration helped covid kill many people directly and indirectly by sewing doubt in the CDC.

For youtube, you can nudge the algo by hitting I’m not interested on a video. Maybe a ton of that?

Free file is software that people use to file. As far as I’m aware, it’s always been free to print out the forms and mail it all in.

Oh my, didn’t realize it was just an empty markdown link

Good for you!

I bought a roll of nylon thread that’s so strong I can’t rip it with my hands. Been using it to mend so many cheap seams and am always so proud of myself.

I add it to my steam library as a local program and rely on proton. So far works perfect with no effort on my end.

I’m most of the way there except jet brains… I just don’t have it in me to spend the years it’ll take to become as familiar with a different tool.

He was watching it for the story!

If I respond, it’s mostly for the ‘audience’. I used to argue on r/libertarian or r/conservative, not to change the other person’s mind, but to add a different opinion to the thread. I doubt I ever convinced the other person of anything, but hope I got other people to think a bit more about some of the policies being advocated for.

My work place is doing a hackathon where projects must use AI in some way

I think they don’t want to own moderation of it. Which I get, but ultimately feel the same way you do. I’m happy I’m on there, few years as well, but do wish they had a comment section.

Just wanted to mention, it was top by consumer reports. I don’t think he mentioned RTHINGs but could have missed that.

I almost felt insulted after watching it. I’m somsone who enjoyed all 3 ones before it. I’m not sure if rumor that it sucked on purpose to prevent WB from touching the franchise is true, but I was so disappointment that it feels more likely than that was really the best they could do.

There’s “just egg”, it’s pretty close to real scrambled eggs.
