I do remember. Almost every day. Wife, kids, house. Got everything, and it has lived up to every expectation.

So far I don’t have any new wants, lifestyle inflation or anything like that. I was a bit afraid as colleagues get into very expensive hobbies and stuff. Playing hide and seek with the kids, or watching some fun videos on the TV is enough for me.

Same, but we have colds so I’m sleeping on the sofa tonight to avoid disturbing each other. Boobs are neat, tho.

What’s so shitty? I’ve been using Linux for over 20 years, and Mac for work over 5. I have my terminal under f12 (iterm2/Konsole), I have my ide on one desktop, my calendar, my email and my slack on a another and a browser on another. I barely notice any difference. Honestly I don’t mind it at all. In fact if my desktop died and had to replace it, I might get a Mac mini instead.

It’s basically bread with a hole in the middle, like a donut. Yummy, but nothing spectacular.

As long as they don’t have to give up anything basic for their people, like education, or Healthcare… wait…

What’s the equivalent of /r/tragedeigh?

That’s not the definition of anecdote, but hey, fun to see it got under your skin…

I know, as long as you don’t want scalability, maintainabiliy, reliability or security.

Yeah, for 6 months, for one person, without rent change, who might or might not be lying. So… cool anecdote, bruh.

There’s an Intel one in there…

I have bad news for you…

Are you hosting your code in any way accesible from the internet? Gitlab, gitea, forgrjo?

Or at least create boilerplate, test cases, etc.

True, but nowhere near as much activity. Linkedin, hackernews have much more interesting content. Lemmy and Mastodon haven’t offered me much besides typical distro flame wars :( Maybe an interesting medium blog post or two, but it always seems to devolve in a rust, arch or AI discussion.

Cool anecdote, bruh.

Same as most social media sites: Stop following those people, find a community about a topic you are interested in (IT is overrepresented, but anything engineering related is quite well represented) and follow the people who post valuable things.

Follow better people. Just yesterday I saw CVE analysis, a discussion about concurrency in Postgres vs MySQL and a guide/infographic about architectures for multi region disaster recovery again with an interesting discussion in the comments.

I find those buttons (well, the YouTube button) quite useful. Shortcut to the statistically most used apps.

I don’t know how you guys use LinkedIn but for me it got me two job changes where I more than doubled my salary (via recruiters) and I find much more interesting technical discussions than on any other social platforms.

If you only follow recruiters and salesmen you get what you follow.
