I see I wasn't able to make my point. I don't just do things purely for monetary reasons. I am glad my parents instilled quite different values in me.

With nuclear weapons you know that getting all enemy weapons is a slim chance. So you aim for maximum destruction of the enemy. If I had to decide on targets I would go for max destruction in terms of lives. In the initial impact and in the

Yes it does. But how to people manage that don't make these IT job salaries? How do "regular" Americans survive such an event?

I agree. Seeing this resume I wouldn't even ask HR to schedule an interview. Actually I wouldn't schedule an interview if I needed the skills for six months. I would rather hire a freelance person because that would give me more c

Okay. You might end up millions poorer. But at what cost? I once had an offer that was 20 percent higher than the current salary I received at that time. I passed on it. I valued working with my coworkers more. I have a standard of living t

If someone job hops I don't recommend them for further interview rounds. Even in an agency setting were turn over is high. I don't want people like that on my team. I have one 7 months stint in my resume and that is framed by 5.5

Last year (or financial year ends in summer) there were basically four numbers. The minimum amount a promotion was worth. The impact on the base salary (and the slight impact on the bonus) if you were considered important talent. The impact

It depends. The number attached to (and reported about) inflation is dependent on the index, the products that are used to calculate the price delta. As well as the estimated share the specific products have in this virtual shopping cart. T

I just used nRFConnect and found a device name that was strange to me. Got curious and asked Google. A personal pleasure toy (aka sex toy) that is visible on Bluetooth. Just for fun I walked a bit around in the garden and found the directio

I just tested with three providers (two mobile, one landline). In all three cases the requests timed out.

Why should I? I test something. It doesn't work. I remove it. I have no interest in doing their job for them.

I can't agree more. As a child I was brainwashed by US propaganda living on the western side of the Iron Curtain. The 'home of the brave and land of the free'. How lo g it took me to remove this naive Hollywood image of our f

I remember that feature. My uncle owned a Saab and always parked the back of the car against a wall because the gear locked in reverse and only then the key could be removed. I was 14 or so and he allowed me to park it. I was blown away by

One one hand - I would say that everything that can be abused will be abused. On the other hand I would say, people (after a time of adaption) will learn to not trust any moving image anymore. Or any still image for that. But on the other h

Wow. Cool. Great you launched something. I am in the same boat as @yardshop. I would need screenshots, maybe a product video. A landing page with a wall of text, not styled to be easily parsable and nothing to instantly tell me what is in i

What I also find with a bit more years of experience is that different groups are impacted quite differently by inflation and price shifts like currently happening. Take my 15 year younger self. I was driving to university 35km (around 22 m

In Germany, the media sites that offered "either tracking/advertising" on vs "paid content approach" were already in court with that practice and won. The current situation is, that the courts decided, that the busi

The extension in my browser block the outgoing call. If something goes through the host file redirects this to my local host that doesn't answer. So no - advertisers never "see" me.

Not sure what it should do, but after installing it it just did nothing on a few German news sites I tested it on. It also did nothing on my own site (using klaro.js). I would still have to click and do the same steps that I would have done

As my hosts-file and ad/script blocker are configured to block tracking and advertising I always click: Accept all. This is by default the quickest way to get to the content. Without compromising privacy by using addons.
