The quest is an even larger step given the fact that it doesn't require an external PC. But still, I would love to see something more gamer oriented.

If your use case is using a video streaming service to listen to music then perhaps you should consider using something else instead of fighting against the tide. Don't get me wrong, I do the same from time to time, but typically when

Sure, but a loan you don't repay unless you get placed and make above a certain threshold. They're removing the risk for you and you pay for that once you're able. I agree that the salary estimate is high, and I wouldn't

I've worked as a hiring manager and... yes, there's simply no way I would hire a remote junior dev, and certainly not at that salary.

In my second hand experience (friends and family, IBEW and automotive workers) this is not at all the case. Admittedly, second hand information and only two locals, but the amount of incompetence and ineptitude that they tell me about is as

And eggs are bad, and if you want to lose weight eat less fat and more pasta! I don't trust anything that comes from these people. They don't have the ability to properly test their hypotheses.

I'm honestly not trying to twist words to prove a point. Apparently I didn't understand what you are trying to say. Calories in v calories out works. It really is that simple. Of course people have different metabolic rates, so yo

That's true for people who are only slightly overweight. If you're obese or close to it 2lb / week is easy because the amount you have to eat just to maintain your current weight is ludicrous.

Those are rare and the laws of thermodynamics still apply. For the vast majority of people, eating less/better = weight loss.
