Wasted minutes reading this shit. tldr; an addicts trip report.

I wanted to reply like what is below but got cold feet. But thanks.

>>>> Why? tedious for me w/o a join. Or is there a feature lurking somewhere? At a different level stuff like this it strike me as “… nothing to see here move on .. “

>>> Facebook introduced .. ppl to xyz topics ..

I possibly belong to this set. Could it be that this goes way back when people got hold of religous text and learn to read it and discuss about it?

Enjoyed the post.

I shop at Costco for

- wine, single malt, brandy, cheese, and bread

- sea food, mutton, sardines, tuna, canned stuff, tomato and citrus fruits

- dog food and bird feed

And of course their food court pizza + hot dogs

Great place.

>> rc cola .. blah blah

Genuine question. Did rc-cola make claim that it is same/close as real cola ? Seem more like taste issue than durian-2-durian compare.

Itching to buy a system76 64gb laptop and let go of mbp (good), and the idiotic lenevo and thinkpad (32gb duds.)

disclaimer — I work mostly console.

What my school teacher used to say about

- cold feet - impetous - eccentric - breathlessly arrogant - astonishingly careless

pupils

>> driving around aimlessly

Commuting to work? Couldn’t resist. Sorry.

For topics france24.com seem reasonable for me. I’m interested mostly international topics.

Clear title and short description no bias listed vertical I prefer.

Wish there is (like reader view) a browser built-in for view facts, opinions, what others are saying —- as researched expressed by the author of each article.

Went with Nature. Thank you.

Seems asymmetrical the way it’s phrased.

Did you simply mean to say both fucked up?

Sleazy company hijacked Cliff Stoll’s Amazon Klein bottle listing.

To me “foreign seller” implies Amazon sellers/buyers has some sort of national context?

Note: I do feel bad hijacking happens in Amazon.

There was also OLE before ActiveX/COM and later DCOM. But the DLL’s were always a constant.

>>> atrophy

Have you consider team atrophy as a pre-existing/chronic condition which maynot have cure?

Thank you for this. I did try a few combinations and it does sound funny in my head. Wondering how this ordering evolved for a non-native speaker like me. I did not hear or know about this rule.

The NIL concept mentioned in the article is new and interesting to me. Who has issue/rights over the individual college athl. NFT?

An alt-side is never ending pleasure of closing laptop at the bell .. in anticipation of bbq, wine, family, and friends. Knowing fully well it’s ephemeral. IMO there is no doom and gloom in this view.

I unerstood your frustration. But can bribe be fair based on it’s potential to offer better experience — just for educated people ?

>>> employees need to be fired... but sometimes management also needs restructuring

Don’t get the asymmetry. Why no firing for mgmt?

Expanding on (1) with few more ideas.

- Use social media personalities to present and spread news

- Informecials as a medium

- Run adwords

Didn’t read article. Comments remind me of the cause and penalty of Opium War - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opium_Wars

To save some time for others.

CDC -> Change Data Capture

In France software companies classify software development as R&d which I think has major tax upside for US companies with RD in France.

>>> Kind of reminds of the policy and value networks in alpha go.

What is alpha go? Is it https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AlphaGo ?

It’s a downer or maybe withdrawl symptoms (not working from office.) Related, wish I could have nail down the 20% stuff at work that got me the 80% high.

Factor in nepotism and the alternative is even worse.

Do not know if skills change. I’m expecting emphasis on certain skills to be more pronounced or even exposed when lacking. I’m a leaf node in a big co. hence curious to know of these shifts if true.

vRoomba for at home vid conferencing. With multiple independant cam, mic, light sensors etc. On-board AI for optimal presentation. Individual preference control via app.. and so on.

Hi - was in same rut few years back where I had taken up a non-dev role and suffered for a while to land the right dev role. To get back on track for interview and eventual hire as a dev I did a) Develop good skills in static typed programming lang (scala) b) Latest dev test deploy tool chain e.g mvn, sbt, intellij, ci/cd , and Docker c) The what part of data structures in standard libs d) developer level best practices in security , auth and authz method e.g oauth c) AWS d) improve interview programming skills i.e demonstrate interactively to solve small problems in scala or whatever e) learn the vocab used today .. not 4 years ago.

Note - All of above is what applied to my situtation. And I apologize for not posting links for references. Thought I must share my experience.
