Nearly every market worldwide was dropping in 2020 due to the pandemic. IIRC, the drops in 2022 correlated with federal interest rate hikes and other federal policies designed to h…

> If you have 95% female applicants for a position I would expect that roughly 95% of hires are going to be female and vice versa. I would disagree for the most part. As mentioned …

> These are not good assumptions. 80% of pediatricians are women. Why would a hospital expect to hire 50% male pediatricians when only 20% of pediatricians are men? If you saw a ho…

My company's DEI program effectively does this. The main tenets are: - Cast a wide recruiting net to attract a diverse candidate pool - Don't collect demographic data on applicatio…

I think the idea is you let the dog grow to full size, then begin this treatment after they have finished growing.

Definitely sounds like a bad PM experience, especially with the repeated insistence about handing control of the company over to the PM. Maybe I just have good experiences with PMs…

Anecdotally as someone with ADHD, one of my favorite features in Jetbrains IDEs is that I can double click on the tab / filename to hide everything irrelevant to what I'm looking a…

This isn't anti-vaccine propaganda. This is a real issue that specifically affects cats, and is extremely well documented. In addition, this paper investigates alternative injectio…

Anecdotally, my wife was diagnosed in the US with sleep apnea about 2 years ago. This included multiple GP visits to even get an at-home sleep study that came up negative, us havin…

Also worth noting that many of those improvements were originally made only for 4.x, but some of the contributors backported them back to 3.x. It wasn't like 3.x only got minor upd…

In 2020, John F. Ring was the chairman, joined by William Emanuel and Marvin Kaplan. All Republicans, save for lone dissenter Lauren McFerran. McFerran is now the chairman, and Kap…

> Slack replaces in-person conversations, which have the same deficits, and many of the same benefits. Agreed. Reading this, a lot seems to come down to culture problems that would…

In addition to the others that have already been listed here, there's recent research pointing to elevated levels of both ANG-1 and P-SEL[1], a combination of elevated cytokines an…

From a union supporter who's spent some time reading about anti-union sentiment here, I've found it generally boils down to a few things: 1) A large portion of users on this site a…

It's been a while since I've looked at the ins-and-outs of the immune system, but doesn't this basically not hold up to scrutiny? Again, correct me if I'm wrong: A) The general met…

This was one of the larger of many reasons I left my previous company, which was a holding company that owned several products with similar audiences and feature sets. They bought …

Godot ~3.2+ has support for a slightly older version of C# via Mono, I think it's the equivalent of .NET 4.8. IIRC (and this could be wrong / have changed since I last looked into …

I use Go at my job, and Rust in a few personal projects. The "typical" Go nil-check would usually look something like this (no idea how code will look, apologies up front): result,…

I had a very similar experience; thought it was an interesting language but I got discouraged around the time the small stuff I was working on required lifetimes, or had weird refe…

Anecdotally, there's something about Godot's structure that just "clicks" better for me. It's odd because they seem pretty similar on the surface (nested scene graph, nodes with sc…

> If you can't map things one to one from a different program or close to that through a plugin I've only used Godot in a hobby context, but the full on C# support compared to othe…

I have to agree with this. I moved off Windows into Linux as a daily driver mainly due to issues with docker support (pre WSL2, but even that had filesystem issues the last time I …

Most of the time I've read about DIY systems, deep cycle marine batteries are preferred for this reason.

This bathroom had no window unfortunately, so that was the best solution I could come up without venting it elsewhere in the house.

Had something similar happen with low-level components in a PHP application I inherited repeatedly calling trim() and/or str_pad() on values that had already been processed. Refact…
