That’s just so impractical. The point of business travel is to get something done. For that you need your devices, and access to relevant data and systems.

Setting up a clean device for every trip where you cross a controlled border is such a hassle it wouldn’t really pass in any company. Well with the exception of defense companies, I could understand them being paranoid enough.

Maybe we just met a second speaker of the infamous bird/dolphin language

Ok, now you have to explain for those of us who are not birdologists

Cauchy - “you can’t have a party without me”

I think it’s because writers take care to make the pronunciation guessable form the spelling. English is infamous for it’s very inconsistent writing rules, however there are “rules”. More like heuristics, but usually it’s possible to write a word in such a way that others can guess the pronunciation, unless that specific word already has an accepted official spelling that is different.

Wow you’re lucky. I’ve always wanted a job like that.

And for a while I had something similar but unfortunately rotten. We had a ping pong table, afterwork parties, no overtime, lunch, even a swimming pool. And we could use all of it.

However we were seriously underpaid, I got an 80% raise just by saying hello in another company. No remote work without any reason at all (most of my team was in other countries). And awful decision making by upper management.

Made me cynical if something like it is even possible. Glad to hear it is.

Oh I feel this so much. There’s a range of jobs and environments where I do really really well. But the way most organizations are structured I can never find a place where my strengths are desirable in the long term.
And selling myself is not one of my strengths.

How many times does it need to be repeated
correlation ≠ causation

I just love that “x walks into a bar” is such a universal joke format. Even if we don’t know why it was funny.

A very human-centric perspective.
There’s the option that God is all-powerful, all-knowing, etc, but humans are completely irrelevant to his plan.

Unsurprisingly no human religion advocates for this perspective.

Not narcissistic

I mean it’s hard to be more narcissistic than this

Time to sell Nvidia stock. Congrats to Huang for pulling it off. Get out when you’re on top.

I have to agree. There are proportionally fewer representations of healthy “straight” relationships. Basically identifying as straight restricts you to a narrow spectrum of toxic or abusive relationships.

Most people who actually like eachother don’t put much emphasis on identifying as straight. They just like the person they are with.

I propose a new category: non-straight hetero. You are attracted to the opposite sex, but not in a straight way.

Pornstars are legitimate entertainers that bring at least something positive to the society. Unlike Donald Trump.

Thanks, finally we can easily avoid “woke free” companies

Mandatory training always covers things some idiot once did, and now everyone has to suffer through dumb videos.

You know what happens when an entire nation is exposed to luxurious lifestyles of an extremely wealthy minority?

Revolution. Revolution happens.

Chinese politicians know this fact too well, that’s why they’re trying to make rich people hide their wealth.
I mean actually fixing the problem is out of the question, that would be communism.

If there’s a developer deserving of sainthood it’s Terry Davies of TempleOS fame. But I’m not sure if he counts as Catholic.
