Man… the battle between cultural expectations and our true selves is humanity’s oldest conflict. A few people get lucky. Most of us survive in the cracks. No capitalization was as …

The keyword is diligently keeping your system up to date! That said you’ll still have exposure to zero day vulnerabilities and DOS attacks.

Drama - but I’m making progress with radical accountability (which I used to think of as self gaslighting). It has helped me cut down my own bullsh*t and I’m happier for it!

I’ve been toying with the idea of creating physical coffee table books with accompanying digital / online version (think photo blog) to document both pictures and thoughts for a pa…

Am I the only one who went “wtf is mutton?” ;) Love goat stew - but you have to know how to season and cook it right tho.

You can try osTicket https://osticket.com The UI is very dated, but we're working on a rewrite with modern UI.

Not when it’s at-will employment. You don’t need a reason to fire anyone in most states in US. Only exceptions are protected things like because of gender or race etc - but that is…

I most definitely struggle with this as well - a friend sharing their issues can result in instant solutions streaming out or even sleepless night “solving” their problems! I haven…

Same here - reminds me of a lawyer named “So Sue” - cannot find the reference but I thought it must be interesting seeing her name on legal papers.

Mine never drops that low - but it has gone as highly as 500+ and I can definitely feel that something is off. Question - do you eat meals in regular schedule or just once a day?

It would really depend on the severity of the bugs... assign severity levels as part of triaging. Also what kind of bugs are coming up is important... I think bug do tell stories; …

This is welcomed news! I'm diabetic (type 2). While I have it under control and don't need continous monitoring or insulin, it would be nice have data on levels monitored. I've con…

I used to believe in "culture fit" as well but it took me going to a tech conference to realize it was a codeword / gateway for alot of **isms. And I don't even mean racism - say y…

It's just like dating - have you tried it lately? Dating Apps has made the issue even worse - so "better" hiring platform is not a viable solution either. The quickest hires IMHO a…

Most locals go MIA during parades. Absolutely not worth driving anywhere today!

It's basically a Holiday in Louisiana (South?) - most offices are closed today! The downer, for me, is I don't drink anymore - please have one for me if you're celebrating! Happy M…

Being mindful can open scary doors for sure... but something about the article gives me the vibes of depersonalization opesode of sort. Perhaps the effect of Marijuana + Mindfulnes…

Sounds to me like you intimidated by thier degrees and whatnot! I would say build up your confidence on your core work and focus on solving problem at hand! A good way to do that i…

This is where co-working space (WeWork?) would work well. I just signed a 3 months contract for my team to meet at co-working place as needed to kickstart a project which in person…

I really think it’s because of batterygate- batteries trotting is not a thing anymore, perhaps

It’s because even $5/month shared hosting plan has it. Simply put - PHP is everywhere! Most CMS are installed via auto-installers (e.g on cpanel) and are also managed by mostly non…

I think the OP has a point - look at the cycle of innovation e.g in physics - happens almost every 100! I think it’s not an accident - as older generation die out the new ones can …

Caves scare the hell out of me - I get anxiety just thinking about it! Come to think of it - I don’t think I have any hobby that borders on scary to anyone ( flying somehow calms m…

Intereting question... my younger brother was a twin as well, born prematurely and incubated for months. His twin didn't make it and to this day he claims his twin took part of his…

I agree that developers are vital - but the buyer is who to market to, not necessarily the user.
