There are simply no more jobs available for the massive population we have right now. Part time economy increases employment.

Paying 5 bucks to pirate seems to be missing the point of pirating for me IMO.

I am more than happy to "take my coffee and fuck off". But I'll do it with a 50 cent instant coffee from a supermarket, not pay 10$ for it just to not be able to relax in a coffee …

My main issue is that they're now slowly testing the waters to see if they can make you watch ads while still paying for the subscription, and at that point, might as well take adv…

I found myself on Arch Wiki for so many non-Arch issues that I decided that I'll just install Arch and use it.

Seems you were not chasing the launch enough. I've been guilty of that before, missing the development of a demo that was meant to be presented to big clients. You may wanna explor…

Shout out to Stanford that made it possible to start a CS education for free, for a Romanian kid who could not afford it (me). The free video course they have had up there since ab…

This is really cool, I love how you planned the entire development before with graphs. When I was 16, I developed an mp3 player in C (I cheated and used mpg123 library). Audio play…

Maybe the capacity is ever expanding, like the universe, so it always has room to spare.

First of all, your situation is completely normal for the time period we live in. A few people I thought would never become homeless (web3 engineers who used to make 300K a month e…

It's been some time that I worked with React Native, but I think you can use react-native-web to create web previews of the mobile app.

Bad e-mail management is not a responsibility on my part, and a disorganized client moving to another company is not really a threat either.

This is probably how people who never pay their debts think. "It's ok if I am late with the bill, they will feel bad for me and never risk me reputation damage by airing out my deb…

As someone with Type 2 diabetes, I am eternally grateful for everyone who works on future eye surgery advancements. Especially for people who work in tech, it's nearly a death sent…

This is giving me GObject and Gdk flashbacks. If anyone wants to traumatize themselves, compile GTK2 and work with the aforementioned. That being said, it's still a very clever way…

As someone who agrees with cutting back some of the funding to Ukraine, this could've done in a much more professional and diplomatic manner. Arguing in front of televisions and in…

Anyone who has ever worked with VCs or shareholders before knows that, if you tell them the reality and limitations of something, they will either fire you or ignore what you say. …

In London, you are the sheep to be slaughtered with a knife.

Nothing wrong with NSFW content per se, but you cannot justify potentially exposing children to pornographic content as a "coping mechanism", it wouldn't be accepted by any court f…

I've been disappointed to not encounter the hot trans girl content the comments are complaining about. How do you handle iOS testing? Do you have VPN blocking? What are some gueril…

Two theories: 1) This is an ego problem. Whoever is doing the development cannot handle being called out on certain software architecture / coding mistakes, so it becomes "nitpicki…

Romanian here. Discussions of cancelling the election happened way before the cyberattack. AFAIK for the first time in a very long time the largest two parties did not win and they…

Well said. There's a Turkish proverb "You are a lord, I am a lord, then who's going to plow this land?"

they are picking a different type of grape by night.
