Why does all of these have such tiny and low-res screenshots?

Grease is such a weird word to me.

Same. Now I'm wondering what they're not offering.

I do this too. Sometimes I'll duplicate the entire code and comment out the lower one as I write a new version or parts.

Am i the only one thinking that the worm is looking so much better than the meatball?

I just got a summer internship offer from these people. How is it there?

I've been watching the series and haven't heard that quote. Might just have to read the books now.

Yes. But that's what they do. It's a trend. The programing teacher also forces one editor on all students. You can't even rest fruits in school.

The cards are locked to a few restaurants.

Problem is many have experienced even worse schools (and there are many) so they're comparatively happy with this. It won't happen. I've also experienced a non-profit teacher co-operative. It was leaps and bounds better than this.

Only on the summer as the school does not allow eating anything other than what the cafeteria serves in the buildings. The lunch cards are restricted to certain restaurants only.

The lunch cards are limited to companies that the school allows.

We used to have the option of regular supermarkets, but they later banned it because they didn't want students eating inside the school at winter.

Funny you should mention the schools grading themselves. I'm a student at an AcadeMedia school, and they gave us a form to rate our education experience, along with this instruction on how to rate. For non-English speakers, they are basically asking us to rate outside of a linear 1-10 scale an instead follow theirs (which is biased towards higher ratings) presumably to look good on internal reviews. If this is somehow shown to their investors, I think the media should take this up.

I find it weird that we have fast food restaurants on the list too. Even weirder is that they compensate with "healthier" restaurants that are so far away we don't have time to get there.

We actually have McDonald's and Max on the list and there's a whole bunch of people who eat there very often.

Most of us eat at subway pretty much every day.

I'm not one to go to parties drinking or smoking illegal stuff, although this is very common in certain groups. So I can't comment on that. I've actually avoided that on purpose because it would worsen my mental state with my diagnosies. But I guess that criminal stuff would happen in those groups.

I'm a student in one of the AcadeMedia for-profit schools. They have around 30 schools with the same brand name as mine and they keep on buying others. There's over 600 of them. There are of course other brands that they own but this one is focused on technology.

Now let me tell you about my experience. First, this school is very focused on marketing. They keep on doing things that are only for seemingly attracting students. For example, they made a "maker space" with more 3d printers than anyone could ever need. I'm not against 3d printers but who needs 10 when only one is being used at a time. They also failed to mention their shitty secondary basement location on a showing of the school for upcoming students. They literally bought a second location to double the amount of students, and it had air quality issues for two years. No windows except a few ones in the roof. This location still isn't mentioned to students looking at the school. Wonder why.

All of these marketing-focused efforts have real impacts for the students. For example, there isn't any room for a kitchen, so they give us lunch cards. These get loaded with 55kr each day (about $6.5). Then they have agreements with some local restaurants at which we eat. Problem is that normally those restaurants would change maybe $12. As a result very few of them allow us in and we get tiny portions. This is served to growing teens.

Now I have asd and bipolar-2. Don't even get me started on how badly they're able to handle that. Nothing really ever improves. It's all talk. As a result, I'm about to drop out.

I tried it from the Github releases page. It has definitely been updated a lot from the Play Store version.

I don't think that behavior is all to common. I see people listening to a very wide range of artists and almost never reach for stuff outside of it around here.

Huh this is what I've been saying to friends too

Season 5 is really good so far if you ask me.

At home, does it really matter all that much how fast it is? I would suspect that overnight is fast enough for most. Charging stations could have buffers.

The styling does not seem to properly handle mobile. I get clipped content on the start page and horizontal scroll on the search results.

When I was a little younger, my dream was to land a job at a FAANG company, although I was thinking Google. Nowadays, I'm disgusted by the idea. Large and bulky internal processes, levels, interviews testing useless shit and constant controversies from management decisions. Now I'm actively avoiding anything that's like these.

Notion is always slow. So I stopped using it.

No screenshots and a broken demo

My biggest issue with spotify is that when a playlist is played to completion, it alternates randomly between a set of 20 or so recommendations. However I usually don't notice right away, and this ends up polluting the recommendation system at large, to the point that my most-played song of 2020 is one that I now absolutely hate, by it keeps on coming back.

I haven't used it extensively, and I haven't used the collaboration features at all, but for me a few things make me dread the opening it at all.

- The performance. Just awful on my MacBook that this a couple years old (read, nothing extreme at all). It's of course better on my shiny new desktop but fundamentally, it's been slow there too.

- Tables. If performance was tolerable elsewhere, tables are not. Everything is 2x slower. Wouldn't even think of attempting to use them on my phone (which also isn't old)

- Where are my billing setting on the app? Nowhere to be seen. And not on the website either, unless I go into desktop mode. I was thinking it was free for a couple months because I couldn't find the settings.

- Launch time. Don't get me started. When I used it i tried to never close it to avoid the launch times.

In the end I switched over the list-stuff to Todoist which had served me good, but it's of course missing the whole smart doc thing. I really don't understand if the devs all have beast machines or if they just don't care about performance at all. I'm not trying the product again in a while.
