Not sopping wet flour

I don’t, it’s strictly better than renting

I am a tech consumer and enthusiast first. I am a corporate shill sellout second. I wish for bad practices in the tech community to die, even if it’s my own company doing it.

My concern as an engineer is that the product gets made well. I have no say or control over how the business cretins and marketing scumbags decide to destroy the company through terrible unethical practices like charging SaaS for completely self-contained software.

The short term view is that you need to keep a company afloat. Businesses should fail if they deliver products in awful ways. Yes, if the company fails, I will lose my job, and that is okay. It would be through no fault of my own, or really even the customers who wouldn’t pay for my company’s product. It would be the fault of the business decisions that were made. And the product landscape would then open up after my company’s failure. For example, if Adobe would finally fucking die then we may actually see better products on the PDF, and photo/video editing market. No more monopoly on sub-par creative cloud products.

The more realistic long term view is that software engineers will be okay if their company fails. The overwhelming majority are smart, get paid extremely well, and exist in a field that needs their manpower. They will be able to find a new job much easier than other fields. The tech community will not be okay long-term if bad companies cannot fail.

I am a programmer, and I get paid whether or not the product is bought. Shovel your dogshit somewhere else.

Ask your company to pay for the certs. At best you get free certs and can then leave them and make more money somewhere. At worst they say no.

Going from zero certs to getting my Sec+ landed me a better job with a new company and nearly doubled my income. (Cloud architecture engineer). Can’t speak to any other certs.

I give OP the bipolar pass

Never hurts either

For every hour of work/coding I do, there is probably 4 to 5 hours of waiting for shit to automatically compile, fetch, build, release, apply, get reviewed, approved, and deployed. The downtime is immense, I spend it helping other people with shit or planning company potlucks (I don’t work for Microsoft).

I went from Anorexia in the military to getting out and doing calisthenics for years now. I am quite a bit smaller than average. Usually between 13-17%, primarily using Navy Body Fat measurement scale to determine it.

This is giving me body fat percentages that are around double what I get from other methods. Not sure what’s up, but I don’t really believe my 5’8" 150lb ass is 30% body fat

It’s hard to find an email service that doesn’t ask for a phone number now a days. Even shit ass Proton mail does it now

Mustard belongs nowhere. It should not exist. It is an affront to God. I want this label placed on all food.

It might not be generative AI, but it is still primitive AI that drives the mapping of the physical streamer’s body to the animated cartoon body

Except companies have sued people for web scraping.

Even web scraping for research purposes, not for competitive purposes.

They obfuscate their traffic by randomizing user agents, so it’s either add a global rate limit, or let them ass fuck you

Data, network bandwidth, and CPU/Processing time from essentially every website in the world, and when you’re paying for cloud power to run your website the cost of webscrapers running a train on your digital asshole adds up QUICK.

It’s why normal human being people get sued to shit for webscraping data from certain companies who care. But companies don’t get sued because go fuck yourself. Kill bytedance.

I’ve had DOGSHIT posture my whole life. Don’t really care about it. Otherwise very fit, active, and healthy.

Now I have a bulging disk and a schmorl hernia in my spine. When that shit starts hurting, it’s genuinely paralyzing. Worse than breaking a bone, and the spine does not heal from that naturally.

I don’t think you have to build a lifestyle around stretching, yoga, proper posture, and mobility exercises, but dear god do some little things to keep your knees, spine, and neck in working order

I started with it at the end of my driveway and parked elsewhere, then moved the bowl up my driveway, then through the grass towards my front door.

It took a few days, maybe a week before the cat started eating from my bowl, I would try and put it out in as visually obvious of a spot as possible to start.

Also if it happens to rain, dump / replace the food
