Especially when you’ll need to move to be in the office, a trip for the interview includes an extra day or two to see if you’d enjoy living in the area where the office is. .

How do you know they aren’t!?!?!?

There’s a difference between being lonely and being alone. If you’re content being alone then that’s not really loneliness, similarly having people around you constantly doesn’t mean you can’t feel a lack of connection and loneliness as well.

In other words, I agree with you, but this article seems to miss this distinction…

They implied it, but yeah, I was probably reading into it too much…

Not all metal is angry…

I wish I didn’t listen to him, but most of the time I don’t have much of a choice.

As others have said, you should really be careful treating your RAID as a backup. I for one do all of my backing up on Playstation 1 memory cards… I had to buy a couple storage containers to store them all, but I guess that technically counts as off-site

My Synology NAS was running for 6+ years before I replaced it last year. And the only reason I replaced it was to upgrade the hardware to be able to act more like a home server running some more demanding services.

I’ve since given the NAS away to a friend who is still running it… As always back up your data just in case, but I wouldn’t expect the hardware to crap out on you too soon

Yes, good point, resource collection is nearly identical to content generation

I think you meant to put that decimal a bit further left…

You wouldn’t download a crime!

Nelson from the Simpsons?

It doesn’t seem right, but it’s the best I could come up with…

Impressive how the cat holds itself mid-air while the photographer frames the photo just right

This is also how I explain it… It’s crazy how all these centralized services have made something as old and simple as email seem foreign to people. I’ll explain it this way, and still get something like, “but this is a website”. To which I say “so is gmail.com”

Touch is just fine, and assuming you have multitouch there are good options for gesture controls

Not to scare you away, but I have experience getting Linux to run on a Surface Laptop 2 and… It’s not exactly the easiest process…

For my machine it required a custom kernel to get the touchpad and keyboard working and it just always had one quirk or another.

Highly recommend Linux, but those surface devices need some specialized drivers…

If it makes you feel any better, I started on kbin and more recently moved… Mostly for the more polished mobile apps, but yeah, thank you for dealing with all that

Working with engineers that were better than I was and actually listening when they reviewed my code… Asking why and going from there.

Surely they can’t make it worse, right? … Right?
