For instance, every morning when I come in there is a person on my team that will talk about their family, their kids, their life, and that goes on for about 15 minutes. In the spirit of team building, I entertain it for awhile. But that does come with a cost.
Someone came in a few weeks ago not feeling well, but decided not to stay home. Ended up having covid and spread it to others. It's hard to be productive when half the team is out sick.
Every day I have to be in the office with others, I truly hate it. The pandemic was hard, but I absolutely miss being able to work from home every day.
LOL, OK.
"or has testicular microplastics."
Again, LOL. They are everywhere.
I’m sure I will hardly send an impactful message, but dude, you’re totally not getting a Dell now.
They’ll never get my $0.99!
/s
They said after working there and seeing how poor the quality was, they would never buy one.
Drupal 8, 9, 10 and beyond is quite different than what came before it.
But then you're having to maintain the CMS, which isn't as appealing as using something like Contentful. It really depends on your use case (like all technologies, of course).
But I’ll never go back to AT&T’s prices, so I guess I’m just out.
Sarcasm aside, while I think striving to be better is great, sometimes I wish there was just a standard language for programming.
I realize it depends on the context (mobile, web, desktop application, different platforms) but it can feel overwhelming when in the end, they all pretty much do the same thing: tell a computer to do things.
My vasectomy was 100 percent worth it.
There’s something in my head that thinks, “This writer is out of touch” (even if they are not).
I admit my logic may be faulty.
But exercise isn't everything: nutrition is important too!
I should overlook this spelling error. But if you’re going to make bold predictions, maybe proofread it first?
It’s not the color I wanted per se, but my old phone wasn’t working well for my needs and I figured continued supply chain issues would linger for awhile.
It’s only a matter a time before Apple starts making hardware closer to home en masse. Home, of course, being “not just in China.”
The era of de-globalization is upon us.
Now my replacement pair is doing a similar, although different sounding issue. I need to take those in.
Annoying. But clearly a First World Problem that I'm glad Apple is taking steps to fix.
As someone who paid off student loans four years ago, I can tell you that this (at least for my family) wasn't the case. When you have more money, you find new ways to spend it (and enjoy doing so).
There's new discussion these days that western diets are woefully under consuming protein. Based on my own anecdotal evidence this year, I would certainly agree.
Yeah, sure, it’s a gift I can give. But also, it took valuable time away from other care I could have given, not to mention the time it took away from my own family and work.
Overall, it’s a consumption problem that everyone should address routinely. We as a society would benefit from editing our own lives from time to time, and make this burden less for all parties involved.
