I have trouble believing only white men can come up with enough merit to be hired for a normal entry level job.

Would you want that guy on your team? I wouldn't.

I'm willing to bet there was a better way to do it. He probably just got impatient that he wasn't getting quick enough response, or the response he wanted, through those channels. Anyway, doing something that makes the company loo

> Why are you so sure the bias is there? Countries like Norway are one of the most equality countries but they have the higher ratios, which doesn't make sense because they have the less bias. This sentence is a little garbled so no

As a woman with a disability who got hired by a diversity program, I don't give a fuck. I just need a job. Working at McDonald's sucks balls. If I really couldn't do the job, they could have fired me at the end of my probatio

Use a big piece of cardboard. Screw screws into it in the same order they came out, and draw an outline of the part they came out of. Tape down small pieces that aren't screws. Label everything with Sharpie. It slows you down enough to

I dunno, you could take it lightheartedly. It's good for a relationship for the partners to have their own interests and have some time apart.

Safe to say it was also the first text editor I ever used for programming. I think Learn Python the Hard Way mentioned it (for linux users), so that's probably where I found it. My memory's a little fuzzy, but I switched to TextWr

It was my favorite text editor for Mac, 2010ish. Then an update broke it and it hasn't worked since.

Sometimes you get cheap landlords who try to avoid paying for routine maintenance, so you get emergency shutdowns instead.

They do. There's a 2.5% conversion fee. $25/1000. It's irritating.

Last week. I'm Canadian and currently working remotely for an American company. I am in Denmark at the moment and need Danish money because they don't do euros. The American company pays me by wire transfer and my Canadian bank sk

Uh, no. I immigrated to Denmark. I went with a year's worth of savings, a place to live lined up when I arrived, a job and Danish lessons organized, and a fallback plan to return home if it doesn't work out. When you have time to

Well, there's nobody out there and they're not allowed to go anywhere interesting anyway. It's not surprising.

It's pretty simple, if you were born in Canada and live there, you're not an immigrant. Your parents might be. If your grandparents were immigrants but your parents weren't, you're 100% Canadian and skin color isn't

I had my old one sitting in a dock for years. I'd just hit shuffle when I needed some music. Like turning on the radio, but with only good music. It was stolen.

That product seems to have a marketing problem. I've heard plenty of PayPal horror stories over the years, but this thread is the first time I've ever heard of Payments Pro.

I think they did eventually. I remember trying to use Stripe for a project during college (2012ish) that involved building a website with a REST integration in C#. My rtfm'ing skills were much worse back then so I could be wrong, but y

Haha, same here. I always used to feel so justified for all the time I spent reading scifi novels in class instead of paying attention, cause all these millionaires were doing it too... and here I am, a junior developer facing a layoff, 5 y

Being insulting doesn't really seem like the right way to go. I think I'd prefer something like "Whoa whoa whoa, I don't know what the problem is but yelling at me definitely isn't going to fix it! Come back and tel

Secret voting became a thing because people were facing harassment, termination from their jobs, and violence when they voted "incorrectly". It's naive to think these problems won't return immediately if votes become pub

They're not really overpriced. They're noticeably higher quality than the knockoffs. The whole point is that you can't check the quality of a sandal online, but you can look at your friend's birkenstock, like it, and buy
