I also sort of blame it on the social media culture of being “constantly connected.” In some workplace cultures, (especially outside the dev space), not being constantly visible and grinning is the same as not consistently posting happy updates on your feed and consuming them.

I remember in my last job we had an “open office” plan after buying and renovating a huge space, and I found a niche little area to set up my desk without people staring at me and when people came to ask me questions they would say shit like “oh so this is where you’re hiding!”

Yes, on company property in the main workroom seated at my company desk using my company computer.

Thankfully my new job is fully remote, so fuck all that weird social noise when at the end of the day I’m just whoring my brain and fingers out so I can pay my rent and buy groceries

Also now your boss can stare at you from his glass office door and see if you’re laughing too much and then Lumbergh you

All the UX people are tasked with cramming garbage AI and data collection into everything while everything else is “designed” by a bunch of overpaid engineers checking off boxes on “features” it should have regardless of where they end up or how usable they are

What a difference he made

Though the vehicle is either an original or cloned MAZ missile vehicle from the 60s, so not really impressive

Yeah my old apartment had one shared old ass boiler in the basement for the whole building, like 35 units.

I would have to wake up super early for my job, and in the spring/summer when the boiler wasn’t on to heat the radiators, I would often be the one to kick start it by turning my hot water on.

It would take like 10 minutes to heat up so I’d just run the shower on low pressure and get a few more minutes of sleep

The biggest issue to me with snap (unless something has changed since the last time I looked it up) is that it’s all a walled garden by canonical and it’s not open source (in the sense of package submission, review, rating, source availability, etc).

With flatpak/flathub you can see the source and discussion behind each package

https://github.com/orgs/flathub/repositories

But that transparency doesn’t exist on snap so you are just hoping canonical did their homework on vetting apps

What in the half life combine civil protection is this sticker

Because it avoids this

It’s the baseline of UNIX, with Linux maintaining most compatibility, meaning servers around the world, desktop environments including MacOS and GNU/Linux, gaming machines (including video game consoles like PlayStation and Steam Deck), mobile devices like Android and Apple Devices, mainframe computing systems, embedded systems, so on and so forth. It makes up the backbone of our technology infrastructure. It continues to be iterated on, and is tightly bound with the C programming language and its improvements and iterations.

For my dev environment I’ve had great success combining home-manager and their integration with

Sure, it doesn’t quite fit the nix philosophy perfectly, but everything is still in my home.nix file and my home directory, and and I can swap tool versions on the fly and direct IntelliJ to their locations pretty easily

What is the charge? Projecting an image? Projecting a succulent incriminating image?

I’m not sure if you meant shit or fuck but I think fuck is more appropriate here

Basically everyone living in capitalism without regulation has been slowly and systemically crushed over time and the capitalists (and other parties interested in destabilization) have done a good job at convincing them that it’s not in fact the capitalists but rather immigrants, minorities, women, etc etc That are at fault

Late last year my company switched to “unlimited PTO.” Ironically this happened just before I had saved up 120 hours (specifically vacation hours separate from sick days or anything else) to go visit my fiance abroad without question. A couple weeks ago HR sent out a message to the managers that “unlimited” (which includes sick days, bereavement, etc) basically means 25 days at max, but we should “encourage” around 15 days.

When I brought up that “Unlimited PTO” was gonna be real bad news for us, my coworkers didn’t really believe it, but now some of them are getting pushback or outright denied on trips they had planned last year. If you are applying for a company that says “unlimited PTO” ask exactly what that means. And if they say “manager’s discretion” ask what the HR recommendation or policy is to the manager. It’s meant to be a profit-increasing tool to get new recruits to sign on, as well as ensuring that they can cut you off from taking days off when they feel like.
