This is probably the correct answer. We run a lot of stuff at work on AAD but I don't care, it's 10:45p EST. If I were on our infra team I might care a bit, mostly monitoring to verify it would be up before users start trying to l

Huh, I wasn't aware these were even a thing. While many of them seem quite reasonable a few seem rather intrusive on the public space. The Palette one specifically makes me feel uncomfortable just looking at it, I feel like if I were w

I like Jeff Nippards stuff. He's generally pretty reasoned in his stances and his workouts are all pretty well done. I've had very good results so far with his 3/week full body hypertrophy program.

I think both are important. I love running and started it first but ended up injuring myself and couldn't run for a number of years. Lifting fixed the issues I had and allow me to run consistently. The body you build with weight liftin

I would say an overwhelming majority of corporate users don't care about creating their own apps or work flows or whatever else. They care about the PowerPoint or excel sheet they are actively working on for their next meeting. Where t

Thats good context. I don't have a lot of experience with chronic pain but I think I could see how CBT could be a good process to control how you approach pain.

CBT was an absolute help for my socal anxiety. It seems strange to use it for something like chronic pain but the truth about much anxiety is that you are mentally creating a world that doesn't exist and reacting to it, CBT is excellen

100% the amount of garbage product I have seen corporations buy is astounding cough Informatica cough . I have also never seen a piece of enterprise software that does half of what a VP was promised it would do.

Yeah, mine is my voice. When I was thinking rather or not to reply and what I would reply with it was just my voice - as it sounds in my skull, not as it sounds in recording - just talking through the details as if I were speaking out loud

That frontpage needs to do a significantly better job of explaining what it is. From the showcase I can sort of guess that it's meant to do art installations and the like?

Yeah, I ended up meeting a bunch of the regulars on my local BBS.

by logosmonkey 5y ago
It was pretty amazing. I think my first BBS experience was around the time I was 13 so it would have been 93ish. I actually don't remember how I first got the phone number for the BBS - that was the biggest barrier probably, to first g

I love lifting, it has had a positive effect on nearly every aspect of my life. It's also allowed me to finally be able to run again after ten years of failed PT on a hip injury. I am confident now that I won't reinjure myself sin

In general, no I would not worry much about it. First don't try a lift you aren't sure you are ready for and two increment by 5# max from workout to workout. Start light, way lighter than you think you should and work almost exclu

Yeah, that's what I am seeing. The talk feels just like it did back then.

Honestly, I doubt much will be considerably different for most US based companies. In SV firms, maybe, but in corporate America it will be years before they would even consider another run at mass off shoring. Lots of corporations are still

I think they were referring to places whereas owning a car is a burden and that the op didn't like. Not places where the need for a vehicle is paramount.

They still hunt. I know because I spoke with a young Amish man a couple of weeks ago about it. He was out bow hunting because muzzle loading season hadn't started yet. I don't know if they have more modern guns though, I didn&#x27

Many Buddhist monks own cell phones. Many even own laptops. Additionally let's not romanticize the Amish community. They have significant social issues just like any other society, their lack of modern technology doesn't make thei

I dunno, blitz.js is already pretty well baked and I find writing with it to be quite comfortable. I suppose it may not be getting a lot of traction in the greater Javascript world, it's hard to tell since maybe I am already in its bub

When I say they tied our hands one example would be that they had system hard caps on how much you could refund a customer for incorrect billings. Specifically 75$ per day per account. So if a customer was legitimately owed 300$ then you wo

Yeah, personally I find e-readers significantly more useful than physical books for casual reading anyway. I might prefer a physical book for reference work but otherwise I find using an e-reader much easier overall. Calibre is great, I wou

And it's often a random 5 days, maybe 6. You never know. It's hard to overstate how burdensome that is.

Yup, the healthcare system I work for requires Flu vax for everyone. Including back office folks like me. They have for years now.

I don't believe so. It's the only way to get a proper pay increase in corporate America. Internal promotion in most corporations comes with at best a 10% pay increase most of the time and includes increased workload. If I leave my

Yeah, if I want more money I won't look for a promotion in my company because the salary increase will be something like 5%, maybe, due to the way internal promotions work in most corporations. I'll go somewhere else where I can g
