Several downvotes with zero comments to refute or discuss your point. Some devs don’t like you calling them out

Does her gymnastics title make her more valuable to society?

I upvoted until I got to the end. Had me in the first half

Interviewing is a very specific muscle. You should try and do as many as you can. It’s also something you should regularly practice, even if you have a job you love and never want to leave. I’d say every year or two, just go and interview at a half dozen companies for roles that could be interesting to you.

I’ve just been through several rounds of interviews with different companies for a tech role. You want to build a brand and learn to communicate it to others. This doesn’t mean you need to write a laundry list of skills that you’ve obtained but rather define who you are and practice explaining that to strangers.

Nothing can prepare you for an interview scenario except and interviews. I’ve been in customer facing roles as well as being the interviewer and the only thing they have in common with being interviewed is that you’re sharing a table with someone else.

Good luck for tomorrow!

Gamifying the voting incentivises people to make low quality posts and comments. That’s why Reddit is now basically just rage bait fake stories with comment chains that all look exactly the same. And now it’s all just ai generated anyway.

I sometimes visit and read the AITAH type stories and I’m dumbfounded that people can believe or enjoy reading them. All the subtleties and nuances of the early days are gone and it’s a race to who can karma farm the hardest.

The other thing that made Reddit great in early days were the small communities being visible on the front page. It made the content varied and there were different types of posting hitting front page. I think Lemmy is struggling with this because politics is just so loud that we don’t have enough volume of other content being made.

What does “general” mean in this context?

In prefer not feeding Ooklas data, openspeedtest doesn’t use their servers and is also selfhostable

I prefer OpenSpeedtest. It’s also selfhostable so none of this “no server” nonsense

Are you trying to argue that the slaves should be grateful?

This is a Linux community and most of these terms are common to even people new to Linux. I guess your joke isn’t really that funny. I hope you enjoy learning some new technology today!

I see this pic appearing a lot in these musk posts. I honestly have no problem with it, who wasn’t a cringy fuck when they were younger?

It’s just a distraction from the real problem. This billionaire has way too much influence over the lives of people in the world and he shouldn’t. Eat the rich

Almost spat out my food, thanks

Loved this show. Ended too early

I found it very hard to follow without having played the game. There’s a lot of jargon that I didn’t enjoy

Agree with everything expect for the viable alternative. Linux is viable for many people

I knew-jerk downvoted but then thought about your comment. I wish we had better research on the relative addiction of alcohol vs cocaine.

My immediate thought was “I know someone whose life was destroyed by cocaine” and then I realised the same is true of alcohol. If only the effort that went into illegally producing all this cocaine combined with the effort to seize and destroy it could be used to research and ultimately reduce harm from all drugs and stop fighting over legal vs illicit.

Anyway, time to ride my unicorn while I live in dreamland

Exercise for the reader: convert to wayland tools

The American system has been tested and it lost. Now it’s in the aftermath where the race to the bottom is an open race instead of being something to be ashamed of.

Good luck to the world as we see what absolutely bonkers shit we experience

I honestly hate this meme template. It’s barely ever used for anything smart and mostly just being a gatekeeper.

The guy saying he uses Linux because of some ‘90s game is way better.
