Try doing a bachelor next to you job. Dear God, do I long for some rest. I’ve been slacking on my studies lately, but I only have 50 EC left to do. Anyways, I’ve got no choice but to change jobs after I get my bachelor. Employers don’t give proper raises, they only give unfair wage gaps to new employees. That s how you get the “I’ve worked here 30 years and the new college kid gets twice my salary” rethoric. That’s sadly how it works. So eventhough I’ll have my degree next year, I know I won’t get paid for it unless I leave. I’ll try, because I like my job, but I know they won’t accept my offer.

Ain’t nobody got time for a strike. I gotta feed my kids and pay my rent

Good point, I should start murder more people who don’t use iso8601… It’s about time!

This is a whole lot of bullshit. The first arguments are the only real arguments for large enterprises. Maturity, stability and broad adaptation. And maybe the fact that Oracle can be bribed to keep releasing security patches for long obsolete jdks

A year doesn’t change much, climate change cannot precisely predict local weather and doomsaying is a threat as bad as climate change itself.

Good argument, great sources, solid facts.

My son is 5 and has all but Fiep and Fons in his class, but there is a Fien. Old fashioned names (or variations) are very popular these days… or five years ago.

It’s legal somewhere

Good story, but I don’t give a fuck

I’d rather see us replacing train conductors. Why do we even need them? Why aren’t trains self driving? Trains regularly don’t drive due to personell shortages and they don’t drive in the middle of the night. Also trains are getting ridiculously expensive (in the Netherlands, due to privatisation) where self driving trains could be a solution to make trains affordable again.

I think it’s grow or die, just like everything. So I think we’ll have to grow, but I’m just curious how. Will it stay like it is now? Will it become even more niche? Will there be some capitalist instance who’s gonna take over the whole fediverse? Will there be mainstream news broadcasters mentioning Lemmy posts or users? Will “This is awesome, Lemmy post this online” become a mainstream saying?

I’m a big fan of jetbrains, I think they make awesome product and they’re great with the community. That being said, CLion sucks. If I code in C (which isn’t often), I just use VsCode. It’s much better. IntelliJ, Webstorm and PyCharm are great products though.

For one thing, you can’t make break-out rooms in Linux, which is something I need to do all the time.

I’m a windows user and I don’t deny anything. I’m just too lazy to switch to Linux and I need the full functionality of Teams for my job.

I like to think I know how to use a computer, but I mostly use my phone for private stuff. I have a few things running on my PC, but they’re all online now in my local network and they have a mobile website through which I interact with them. Even my TV runs a frontend for things on my computer. Computer stuff has become an even broader spectrum of devices and skills than it used to be 20 years ago.

• nothing, it was just a hand pushing the ball

• round, wood coloured, but thin like a metal coffee table.

I did have to think about how to put it into words, but the picture was fully formed before revealing the questions.

I have thought the same thing many times, but I’m not completely certain the math checks out. Does lemmy have a “theydidthemath”? Otherwise I might try to figure this one out for once…

That sounds like something a healthy, well functioning society would do. /s

That’s under the current economic system, yes. If you want to use immigrants to sustain the current system, you’re just pushing the problem forward to a point where either Europe can’t offer any more room for immigrants or there are no immigrants left to migrate.

We need tighter migration policies like we need an ibuprofen for a toothache.

That just makes job hunting suck even more. Now you need to also check whether LinkedIn gets you hired or passed on.
