People are downvoting you, but you’re correct. I don’t work a particularly sensitive or interesting tech job, but we’ve had 2 candidates in the last year who were faking who/where they were. One had other people in the room feeding them answers. I’d expect weirdness in remote interviews as companies figure out how to navigate this.
Australia?
I didn’t want anyone to think I’m actually from that shithole state, Mississippi.
It’s close enough that counting Mississippis is still roughly accurate.
(for non-US people, we sometimes estimate seconds by counting 1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi, 3 Mississippi… just because it’s a long word that takes about the right amount of time to say)
I think you misread that. This poster’s experience isn’t from 2016. They installed a program called “Outlook 2016” recently.
heh. This reminds me of electric cars. I’ve been happily driving one for 9 years.
Lots of people online and in person tell me “Electric cars aren’t there yet. They won’t work.” Well, you must be correct then. I just handed down my first EV to my kid and bought a second one.
I recently watched “The Program” on Netflix, about one of these alleged leadership academies that is really an abusive reform school. Almost all of them are run by an organization called WWASPS, and all of them are eventually shut down for abuse, neglect, and cruelty.
I imagine it is tough for them to open new locations in US States due to past shutdowns, crimes, and lawsuits.
A quick google search shows that this “Atlantis Leadership Academy” is also run by WWASPS.
Agreed.
My grandparents: Loudly racist
My parents: Quietly racist
Me: Thinking brain logical, but unconscious bias
My kids: Man, my parent is racist.
Good thinking, kid. Get better than me.
SmartTube is back up this morning after an update.
This reminds me that every night I set the alarm on the alarm clock next to my bed. I bought this alarm clock in 1991 in a Caldor store for less than $10. It has a little light bulb in it that I’ve changed 3 times.
33 years. Not bad.
t wasn’t exactly rape either. She wanted him to do what he did. And age wasn’t completely clear.
What a fucking gross thing to say. A 21 year old traveled to another country to have sex with a 12 year old. No.
I uninstalled gboard yesterday. So frustrating how bad it is. a) My fingers definitely didn’t touch those letters. b) you’re not even giving me suggestions of things I actually could have swiped. c) Those aren’t fucking words.
iOS keyboard isn’t better, but it also isn’t worse.
iMessage is not as good as Google Messages, tbh. It’s the one thing I miss after switching from Android. I miss having access to my messages in a browser and any device.
The only people that Google Messages isn’t better for is iMessage users, and that’s because iMessage cripples it on purpose. It’s shitty.
Interesting. I’m running it on a Celeron N4020 with 4GB RAM right now. This system was allegedly shitty in 2019.
I replaced my Chromebook with Elementary OS. On it’s face, it’s a lightweight, web browsing OS with a limited “App Center” of approved apps (similar to ChromeOS), but underneath, it is a Debian-based distro that you can do anything you want with.
This just in: Google suddently discontinues support for popular and profitable ad blocker blocker blocker blocker, because literally all they know how to do is kill things that work.
Spreadsheets are life. I think in spreadsheets. I hope it comes soon.
My favorite stores in the mall in the 80s and early 90s were the Electronics Boutique, Waldenbooks, Tape World or Sam Goody, and Sharper Image. None of those thing exist anymore. When I go to the mall now, it’s 90% clothes and jewelry, and I’m just not that interested in it.
My kids like the rock/skate shops like B&C, Hot Topic, Zumiez, Vans… but it’s still just basically clothes.
The linked article in this post is from a pretty sketchy biased site, and you’re right that they are using inflammatory language rather than accurate language. I’m no expert, but it sounds FB may have had a point blocking this account. I hate Facebook, but not because of this.
