In a role where 50 things need my attention every day as I'm still being onboarded, the "remind me in 1 hour" feature in Slack is quickly becoming my favorite.

Convinced someone to cancel Amazon Prime, because no company who so blatantly abuses employees and fires them all when they unionize should remain in business. We're still stronger together. We just need to vote with our money. I stopped shopping on that site ages ago.

Support provided by LLMs is going to be a disaster. After just one follow-up question, it started hallucinating UI options that don't exist. This is sadly a regular occurrence everywhere.The industry should not go into that direction. There's enough human incompetence in the world. We don't need to make it even worse with Artificial Incompetence.

After I reinstalled my OS, I opened the browser and forgot to install an adblocker. How do people even survive without those?! The web is unusable in its default state.

What idiom do rocket scientists use among themselves when something is supposed to be simple? They can't say "it's not rocket science."

You probably know who the Wagner PMC is and what atrocities they've committed. If you're the collector type, the volunteers I support in Ukraine (Harmata) are selling a Wagner chevron for 3000 USD.Funds will be used for supporting the unit to continue the fight. Let me know if you're interested. I'll be facilitating the transaction so there's no risk.

This joke comes up now and then in our family. Finally showed the little one where it originally came from. Context: Gretzky did an ad but he didn't actually know French, so this parody was created.https://youtu.be/fJv83Oh6z8A?si=E4ATolPq6lTX4zkT

Personality tests are about as accurate as horoscopes. Every time I took one, I had a different summary. That's because the answer to most questions would be "it depends".

I'm watching the series Billions, and then I see this real-world news: "U.S. prosecutors move to drop soccer TV rights corruption case"The timing of the FIFA participation trophy for a certain president isn't suspicious at all.https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/u-s-prosecutors-move-to-drop-soccer-tv-rights-corruption-case

"You need to learn to type fast."I spent YEARS with various specialized software to assist me with that, to no avail. I barely made any progress in the last 28 years. I couldn't learn to play guitar for the same reason. It's just not how my brain works.I'm glad that I ended up realizing that typing fast isn't necessary to become a good programmer, but it sure affected my confidence at first.
