Does signal do like team meetings anyone can join with a link?

Apparently yes: https://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/7860719423002-How-to-create-and-share-call-links

But I’ve never tried it for that.

I use it for text voice and video with friends though.

$3 million. Averaging 10% returns is plenty of money without touching the principle.

Then there’s sliding “hmm this is risky” down to maybe $2million. Far below that I don’t know if it could tank a market dip or sudden expense.

I remember when I was a toddler, the neighbor toddler girl hit me in the face with her shoe. When I hit her back, I got in a lot of trouble and was told not to hit girls.

Would have been a lot more sensible if they said “no one should be hitting each other”

You can use uv to manage python versions and deps now. You shouldn’t fuck around with your system python much.

Don’t over think it. Meet other people.

Everywhere I’ve worked that did micro services it was kind of a pain. One of the places I’ve worked had a simple monolith backend and it was great.

I don’t really like the parroting of in-jokes thing. Probably any sufficiently long lived large group will probably have in-jokes, but reddit-isms always grated the most.

If there’s a good in-game group finder, where you can specify like “first time doing it” or “chill group” vs “speed runner” then it’s probably fine. If you can find players, that is.

I played a lot of guild wars 2. I’d start groups on the lfg with a message like “chill [content] run - I don’t care about your build” and people would join, and we’d have a fine time.

Some other MMO, I forget which, I’d end up sitting at the lfg for a long time and never got a full group

The other day one of the other devs messaged me with “you wanna see a dead body?”

He’d found some code that had been running in production since 2003, with so many problems and smells. Wasn’t in source control, either. Many hard coded plain text passwords.

Sadly, he had to touch it enough to fix a production outage.

I thought it was going to be pro-ai from the title, but I didn’t vote based on that assumption

Evaluating the whole argument is expensive. “Is the author a known idiot?” is a cheap heuristic to save effort.

Though that does remind me I had a long argument with some bizarre poster on here who insisted that the source of information is not important, and the unwell guy screaming under the bridge is just as viable a source as someone with a PhD on the subject.

Teams is a huge piece of shit.

Why is every meeting its own chat? With no threads! Why are the team channels like fucking forums instead of chats? Why do I get notified between 0 and 4 times for the same message?

I hate teams. I have never had a memorable problem with slack. Maybe some things can be fixed with better use behavior, but good software guides users away from bad patterns.

As a tutorial grade react developer (please return me to the backend where I am mediocre instead of bad), having more senior developers take the time to explain why my code was bad was really helpful.

Also I think I just kind of hate JavaScript. It always feels like everything is more complicated and booby trapped than it should be.

I feel like vscode and pycharm both do that out of the box?

Before my big monitor broke I had pycharm split into four panes for the backend project and 3 for the frontend. It was nice.

I manually start it when I want to play something.

I shut down the computer when I’m done for a while. Like before bed, or if I’m leaving the house.

But if I play a game and then spend some time on the computer doing something else, I don’t explicitly close steam.

That’s my understanding as well.

A kink is also typically something at least a little uncommon. You wouldn’t call “I like putting my hard penis in a woman’s vagina” a kink, typically. But “I like when she slaps me” might be.

Targeted advertising should be illegal. Solves a lot of problems. You can pick an ad based on its location (sports.example.com can have sports ads and astrology.example.com star ads), but not based on who’s viewing it. Now there’s less motivation to read all your personal information.

The point is that when they average person double clicks an MD file, it should probably open and display.

It does? I mean, I guess it depends on your OS and if there’s an handler for .md files. My machine opens them fine. I don’t know what the default is on windows. Handling a file extension with a smart default is really on the OS provider, though.

Yeah, a lot of awful people in positions of power would go. I hope I wouldn’t use it for petty things like “parking in the bike lane”.

Removing a lot of the forces keeping the capitalist dystopia in place might let something else grow.
