In Lithuania the rules are fairly simple: fines up to a certain level of intoxication.Criminal record, car seizure,massive fine and lost licence if it goes above certain limit. Also, one needs to take a driving test at the end( after 2 or

Beautiful emails are easy. Emails with well conveyed and informative text- much much harder.

I had this issue when I had a larger team to manage. I'm also one of those who remembers an email that was sent 3 years ago by some random guy listing all these useful things. However,it doesn't work for most people. The communic

There's an element of practice too. Ideally, you want a very thin layer of oil to cover the base, or maybe even less. It doesn't need to be a lot. Also an average saucepan would produce quite a lot popcorn To prevent burning, shak

This is good advise. A lot of devs, or techies in general, often live in a bubble,so end up thinking that if their standard dev shop has all the integrations, automations,and whatnot,so it should be the same everywhere else too. It blows my

Or simply use large saucepan. Pour some oil to cover its base, wait until the oil gets high temperature, pour corn. Then, shake it every now and then. We used to make tons of them when we were kids and even now I make it occasionally, when

This is a convenience that will turn into an absolute nightmare for average citizens in a few years time. Imagine saying something the state doesn't like and suddenly half the doors in the country won't open for you.

Programming is part of my job, but I only have to do it every now and then. However, I'm considering pulling a plug on programming side gigs I do sometimes. It's so intense, the brain feels like it's going to explode+ there&#

It's partially because of dilution. There are so many things out there seeking our attention. There aren't enough people on this planet to support it all.

No need to. If your experience is solid, there's plenty of work for consultants. Not those types, who walk in and get told to create a CRUD app, but those who can advise on tech, its implications on the business, the risks, etc.

This is poor business management and has nothing to do with the technologies at hand. If a company has a software product but the devs can be pulled into ' let's fix this button on our contact form' anytime, then it's si

You can outsource the task, but you can't outsource the discussion afterwards. I recently had to hire: shortlisted a couple of candidates and gave them a simple task that shout take 1-2h to complete. I also gave them more than a week t

What it generated in Django was very simple and likely far from the quality an experienced engineer would come up with, but at my knowledge level that was enough.

I always wanted to do this very specific in Django. I don't work with Python,so even though I knew what I want to do,but my skills weren't there to create working code. So I thought I'll throw the problem at chatGPT. The gene

We moved country a couple of years ago and with all the covid restrictions still in place, we needed a place to stay for a few days,as our apartment wasn't ready by the time we landed. So we got this really nice apartment in a nice par

I do agree with you. My feeling is that there will be a rise of so called super experienced users- those,who didn't just get all the answers from the prompt but learned instead and hordes of people who won't even know how to do ba

Samsung, as a conglomerate with all the affiliates makes up 20% or so of Korea's economy. The entire state is motivated to keep it going,so a financial analysis of some 20 year old in wall Street don't have such a huge impact. TSM

If it'll make you feel better, fox shareholders are prepping lawsuits against the executives to recoup the money the company will need to pay the settlement. So it's not the end yet.

There's another type: who comes into the kitchen,right at midday, knowing well that there will be another 15 queuing to do the same, puts in the food and walks away for a half an hour. I had to take food out quite a few times because I

Before going full remote when covid started,we had a couple of offices. One was filthy, stuff all over the place, fridge looking like it's been a nuclear war inside,etc. The other was always clean,no stupid leftovers, toilets were pris
