No no no. Wait until after she gets the younger generations to vote the monsters out!!

No, I’m banking on the younger generations coming out of the woodwork. They’ve dealt with so much and really hoping they realize their vote could really send these dinosaurs into extinction.

Exist. The US education system failed me.

I am not “normal” I can’t read a chapter and pass a test. I need to be hands on. So the system gave me a C and moved me on to the next grade.

I was given the privilege to realize I can program, and by high school had already become pretty handy in C++. This is before high school.

I was a star in every tech class they had. Got Cs still of course cause i didn’t give a fuck, but it was very clear I was light-years ahead of even the teachers.

Not one teacher, staff or administrator asked me why I wasn’t going to college? Sat me down about my grades and got me aligned. No one gave 2 shits.

I got lucky. I got myself into the career without college. But man, those students who didn’t have the privileges I did, that just got dropped to the curb. Shame.

So, the band gets their 10 cents, the jukebox gets its money, and the bar mutes the jukebox…

I don’t see how this makes any sense.

You know those water balloon toys with the hose hook up? It fills about 20 small water balloons and you have to sorta jiggle the hose to get the balloons to slide off.

Well, it felt like the doctor was pulling a hose on a mini version if this inside my boys.

Was legit horrible experience.

Don’t let anyone fool you. Sooooo glad it’s done.

Great!

Maybe it’s a really expensive addition to someone’s garage?

I’ve no interest in a flip phone. Why? Why is my option a foldable screen, but no head phone jack? That’s not something I want, that’s something I need.

I’m extremely optimistic. I think they will show in droves. Fingers crossed!

Shake it baby.

No replaceable battery though?

I did a few months back.

Outside of regular work hours?? Screw that noise.

I do agree there are many situations where it doesn’t make sense to return to the office.

I’m probably the only one. I do not think WFH is the future.

It takes a minute to turn around, tap PM on shoulder and ask “what about this or that?” And get an answer.

Instead if ping in company channel. Provide all possible points of relating data. Link to all related content. And then ask my question. And hope I get an answer within an hour.

In almost any possible professional situation it’s faster and more efficient to be in office.

The conversation we should all be having is what compensation we will demand for the return to the office. Paided travel. Paid child care. All those things that WFH revealed to be the scam our employers pulled on us.

Package management is impossible. When a big enough package pushes an update the house of cards eill fall. This causes project packages with greatly outdated versions to exist in production because there is no budget to diagnose and replace packages that are no longer available when a dependency requires a change.

Examples: adminJs or admin bro… one of them. Switched the package used to render rich text fields.

React-scripts or is it create react app, I don’t recall. Back end packages no long work as is on the front end. Or something like that? On huge projects, who’s got the budget to address this to get the project up to date?

This has to be a world wide thing. There is way to many moving targets for every company to have all packages up to date.

It’s only a matter of time before an exploit of some sort is found and who knows what happens from there.

How the hell is it possible for her to be in touch with me a 40 something year old? How about those in their 20s? She doesn’t represent us nor have any idea what it’s like. It’s impossible.

How you think this is OK is insane!

Because she’s a dinosaur and her age is very relevant to the situation.

Was in the hospital over Thanksgiving a great years back cause of gallstones. Morphine good.

Life without a gallbladder isn’t terrible for me.

I was just getting into Linux desktop development. I asked one question regarding getting the position of a mouse on some Ubuntu developer forum. The response drove me away from developing for Linux and I never returned.

Why hasn’t it happened? This is blatant at this point. Why are they not behind bars???
