No, I was just saying the behavior is typified by that stereotype. The trope is American in name but the practice now is everywhere

Doing well is the best revenge. When you find yourself seething take ten minutes and do some career development, pick something to study that you're weak in and funnel that non productive time into your future success

For me, if there's not comprehensive documentation, I will not try to understand it. I'm not smart enough to grasp it quickly and not willing to dedicate the time to doing so. I'm forever in debt to those who have the time an

I find these rants about social media patronizing, people are aware, they just don't care. It's not whistle blowing, it's self congratulatory yipping at this point. If you want to make a better solution that happens to be dec

I ended up meeting a lot of my idols who had lost their touch when I was young and it never made sense in close quarters. But when I'd go out with them and people would incessantly talk to them it finally made sense, they lost their ab

I used this for a demo (that took about 30 minutes to build) and my stakeholders loved it. Thanks!

I love the cooking shows! It's all instructional and not competition. It's really nice to have in the background while working from home, at the volume level I wish my open office was at (a decibel over a whisper)

I absolutely love the sub PBS channel, Create (56.3 in Detroit). It comes in over the air, plays This Old House and all of the other content is soothing, professional and drama free. If you've cut the cord, but sometimes just want to t

I think this rings true for learning. Early on in the learning process people need to focus on just doing a bunch of stuff and failing quick and then looping back to the beginning. Focusing on perfection with no foundation, in my experience

“conviction to achieve a smoke-free world through socially responsible practices.”...? Why do they even do press? I'm honestly confused by the drug dealer saying they are trying to help the problem

From someone who has failed at it, get comfortable talking about money or get someone who is. I didn't.

For what it's worth, I hear most of those things so often in my job (ui dev who works very closely with uxers) that I'd consider them very specific cliches

I set realistic personal goals so that even if whatever project fails (and they usually fail for me), I've picked up a new skill or refined an existing one. And hopefully I had fun doing it

My current team uses a digital board. We have the stories prefaced with the system so they stay together. Devs typically work between 1 or 2 systems during each sprint with about half of them being full stack. It works ok, but there is a hi

I think there's a lot of power in telling someone that whatever they're going through sucks and you can't do anything about it, but you'll listen to them bitch to get some relief. Being told to be positive can feel like

I wasn't aware of the program till recently and just thought it was a marketing gimmick for vaguely technical people who can throw a little open source varnish on the company.
