I'm a freelancer. It basically means I do exactly the same job as an employee, and can be "fired" for the exact same reasons as an employee. But I never consider my customers as a "boss". If they don't want to

I fully agree with you on this one.

by koonsolo 4y ago
I hope you also do a performance review of your work environment and wage. If your "boss" doesn't qualify, just go work somewhere else. I always look at it like this: If I get fired, they need to hire someone, train them, and

In a software development context, the functionality should be specified by analysts, not by the manager. The technical architecture should be specified by an architect, not by a manager. The development process should be steered by the con

I hate it when people mix terminology together. For me: a leader is the one that sets the direction. A manager is the one that supports the team so they can do their job. Those are 2 different responsibilities. Sure, they can be combined in

Security is indeed something you need to take into consideration. Not only installing plugins, but also pulling in updates regularly (that might contain new exploits). But you have to ask yourself the question what is most important: 1. A f

As a developer myself, I was also more than involved in developing the plugin. It's indeed true that it can be a bit messy. But I think the huge ecosystem and customization (through hooks and filters) make up for the sometimes difficul

You're going to love to hate this: Best choice I made was using WordPress! I run https://rpgplayground.com , a web tool to make RPG games without coding (6000+ user published games) The app itself is written in Haxe. My webs

According to Russia, even sending weapons is an act of war. It all has degrees. There is a clear difference between attacking Russia on their own territory vs defening Ukraine over Ukraine territory, with their consent. Russia would do noth

by koonsolo 4y ago
It is clearly not threatening "the territorial integrity of Russia", as Russia likes to call it. Because those planes get attacked over enemy territory.

At one company I was the expert in Crystal Reports. Right now, nobody knows I even know what Crystal Reports is.

Just because we closed our eyes in the past doesn't mean we need to continue doing that. It's the straw that breaks the camels back. Shooting down Russian airplanes over Ukrainian territory when they are literally bombing Ukraine

Why? India is fighting China over a border conflict, no nukes used. Why would you think NATO securing Ukraine would end in a nuclear war? It's not as if either NATO or Russia is attacking on the others soil. Ukraine is neither NATO nor

Russians are very inconsistent in their lying. On one hand they say they are already fighting NATO troops, and on the other hand they say that NATO needs to stay away else they will use all means possible. I was in favour that NATO would se

Your explanation sound reasonable, except for the fact that you seem to mix estimates and deadlines together. I don't trust the planning of anyone how doesn't make a big distinction between estimates and deadlines. So I would like

I'm sorry but that's just the face. It's a bit absurd that women would only take the face into account. In fact, it absurd that women would only take looks into account.

Since you seem to know, what does the 5% profile look like? It's all genetically fixed, or does the style and environment in the pictures play a role?

I carried all of my kids on the front. It puts me more at ease when I can keep an eye on them, and I'm sure I don't bump them into stuff inside the house. However, it makes it more difficult if you want to work, like for example w

She gives personal advice of course, which can be very specific for each case. One specific example I can give you: Women find it important that you have clean, well-groomed hands. This is not intuitive or obvious to men at all, unless you

I can't upvote your comment enough. There is a lot of negativity in men that have a hard time dating. It's all the fault of some external thing that can't be fixed of course. While in reality, there are plenty of things you c

I think the taste of men in women is very predictable. We're all focussed on the same 5%. With women, it's different. Each individual woman has a different taste. Some like men with beards, others hate them. Some like tattoos, oth

Maybe you should just make sure your profile is top 5%, and if you think you need a six-pack for that, you're wrong. Any average guy can make a Tinder profile that is interesting for women. Women prefer other things in their partner th

Nice statistics. I found my wife on Tinder, and I'm by all means no top 5%. Actually that depends on how you count it of course. Women don't prefer men with 6-packs, if you haven't figured that out already. My wife works as a
