I'm using one called "Out of Milk". It's great. Is that the one you mean or something else?

Always safer, and should be the default IMO

If you read it instead as an advertisement for easylang.online it's a pretty nice introduction for the language

I did a similar thing to control VLC remotely but using Node and React. Not as comprehensive as yours but does everything the kids need to watch a show without touching the PC. https://github.com/screaminghawk/web-vlc

That's a nice thought. I'm the kind of user that's going to give up and move on if my first attempt fails, and I imagine I'm in the majority here.

I have to agree as well. Our team has switched from a burndown chart to a "Confidence Check" at each standup. On the count of 3, we each hold up fingers rating the chance to complete the sprint out of 5. It's been a good way

I'm pretty happy with this as well. I work 7-3, but I work those hours every day. I've walked out of meetings that have gone past 3 and no one has complained. It's been a great experience

The voting system is interesting. How can anyone judge whether the information is good for an age group higher than their own, or even for their own age? I would have expected that you can only vote on advice for ages younger than yourself,

This is my experience too. Other commenters mentioned that people grow at different rates, but there's nothing stopping you from looking at the advice for ages around you

This is absolutely true. A lot of the most interesting people I know only appear boring because they are well aware of the societal norms and won't speak out. Once you break through that trust barrier you can find that "boring&quo

Care to share? I have a lot of anxiety about my mortality and I've been looking for (non-religious) ways to counter act this fear.

Saying "I'm sorry, there's nothing you can do to make these problems go away" would cause me to give up on the interview process and look else where. I can't see a benefit for the company to let the interviewee know

I completely agree with this. The problem with bias is that it has affected peoples opportunities in the past. This will be reflected in a CV. I'm not sure the inclusion of name / age / etc will solve this problem, so Helsink

Then why are you writing it?

Does this still ring true for someone with no experience in the industry? I figure a certification is an effective "proof of expertise" when there's no employment history to back you up.

Is there an RSS feed or associated twitter etc that can alert me of new articles?

This is the kind of tool I've been tossing up making myself. Such a great job! Quick, well presented. But, I wish I could correct the statistics. * I haven't had this email for a year (doesn't extrapolate) * My salary is much

> Learn Python and SQL But not exclusively. Both are incredibly useful tools that will open a lot of door for you, but I personally wouldn't want either of these to be considered my bread and butter.

Or you end up with `about:config`. Doesn't solve the impossible to comprehend everything problem, but it still gives people to option.

Honestly, if I saw that message I wouldn't trust it. Immediately I assumed they would be doing this, but used it anyway. If the message was there, I would not have.

People around me are stressed and burnt out and I don't know what to do to help. I simply don't have this problem, so can't relate. My wife is constantly asking when is the next time we can "have a break" but I&#x27

I read the comments first as well. It's often a good indicator of whether or not the article is worth reading. And more often than not there are better references in the comments than the original source. Would be really interested in

Sounds like it still fits to me. From his point of view, you aren't a credible source, so he thinks you are trying to manipulate him (he doesn't like it). But he respects the other coworkers so they can influence him (he likes it)
