Best advice for cv writing: if you're not modifying your cv and cover letter for every job ad, you're doing it wrong. Generic, and vague links to my job ad are the worst cvs to read. I don't know how you can help me. Why does

Not everything needs to be sales based or even numbers based. The lesson here is fact based, not baseless claims. I write high quality code. Vague statement, nothing backing it, don't even want to ask how or why you think you do becaus

Amazon / eBay arbitrage is a thing. Made some really good money until my Amazon prime account got banned.

Skeletons and frameworks should be avoided at all costs. Frameworks are sometimes useful if you know one well but if you're new to it its gonna be a huge time sink. Skeletons are similar issue to frameworks, they give you a whole lot o

It's not free, its open source. They decided to build a company on the backs of a community that is more conducive to open source than closed source. They got theirs. There wasn't anything free about it. They are the ones that fuc

That was my attitude for a long time. Til I realised it was a false dichotomy. I don't want to work for a company that puts its need above mine. That company isn't worth my energy. The correct decision is to take an approach that

> The argument here is that if we evaluate by a metric that benefits the in-group more then the out-group you end up with doing discrimination. Yes. That's the point. The in group in this case has invested more time. They get more r

I wouldn't be so sure, we're enacting a no hire rule on Basecamp employees over this. Too much of a liability.

by waheoo 5y ago
Basecamp does all of those things... You really need to read up on how they operate before commenting about them like this. "It doesn't have to be crazy at work" is a good read that explains where they're coming from. Un

It's not bs. They said should, not must. Yes there are trade offs with everything you do in IT, one of them is creating a shit place to work in the name of speed. It might work for a little while but eventually you're going to rea

I can feel the salt on those downvotes to AP. Not his fault he grew up in a country the rest of the world thought they were taking advantage of.

More irresponsible than letting the human race exhaust and suffocate itself on this planet? At some point we need to realise colonizing another planet is going to be necessary, and it is going to cause lots of damage.

Going 30 down the highway. Roflmao. Edit, hey this actually works out quite well, 1 for walking speed in parking lots and 15 round town. Though I do think going the other way might be better. 3000 down the highway.

There are largely tangible benefits using imperial over metric, builders arithmetic is much easier for one, it's all fractions based.

I used to think i3 was only going to be useful on my small laptop screen.. then I got dual monitors.. it's so nice having such control over my windows.

Ah... Yes. Seriously, you kids do not remember things clearly or simply weren't around. Microsoft simply cannot be trusted. Maybe ya'll are fine forgiving and forgetting but personally I take a stance on a company for this kind of

Machine learning automatically being exempt is a huge red flag for me. There are immense repercussions for the world on every comp sci topic. It's just less direct, and often "digital" which seems separate but it's not.

That sounds like a disconnect from reality.

Defend yourself from what? It's a valid question. But go ahead, dismiss instead of engage. You're suggesting swaths of people are warming up to socialism. What you don't realise is swaths of adults are waking up to these scre

I agree, we should shutdown Twitter and Facebook today. Better take down AWS too, they host all kinds of awful shit.

I'd rather NASA had the funds for a little production value. You can make the same whataboutist argument for why we shouldn't even be on Mars.

Once I moved to dual screen tiling I don't think I could ever go back. Same level of productivity boost as dual screen windowed was back in the day.

Why is the HDMI limited? Old version? Latest HDMI can run 4k 60 no problem.
