Ordered some nice handmade leatherworking knives.

The irony of it is that I accidentally sliced off a sliver of fingertip the other day with my current one. Damn things are like miniature guillotines, but if nothing else, it's a testament to my ability to sharpen a round knife

Usually (but not always) a software related college degree and industry experience. If you don't have the latter, hobby projects and open source contributions help, as long as you can demonstrate it (ie: a repo)

Ymmv, the requirements depend on the company

There's a big difference between hobby coding and corporate coding. I do the latter and work on large applications as part of a team. I spend a lot of my time

  • Using debugging tools and probing at code to investigate and fix bugs
  • Coming up with system architectures to achieve whatever feature we want to add
  • Cleaning up my other teammates' AI generated slop 😑 (fuck AI)
  • Writing test suites for our code that guarantee everything works as expected
  • Occasionally I write new features
  • Juggling this with pointless meetings and a long ass commute that take up 60%+ of my work day

I moved from NY to Canada and have only felt welcomed by everyone. I absolutely love it here and have no desire to return.

The desire to reduce reliance on the US is very real. There's a strong movement to shop local, which I do love. Canada has better food anyways.

Because they're corrupt fascists. That's it. That's the totality of it. No one's going to prosecute them and if they do, it's gonna get overturned

Found this in my old archives and figured it'd be appreciated here. Most satisfying wipeout by far. Maybe not satisfying for the other team though

People spend one-third of their lives asleep. What if employees could work during that time … in their dreams?

Prophetic, a venture-backed startup founded earlier this year, wants to help workers do just that. Using a headpiece the company calls the “Halo,” Prophetic says consumers can induce a lucid dream state, which occurs when the person having a dream is aware they are sleeping. The goal is to give people control over their dreams, so they can use that time productively. A CEO could practice for an upcoming board meeting, an athlete could run through plays, a web designer could create new templates—“the limiting factor is your imagination,” founder and CEO Eric Wollberg told Fortune.

I'm a performer, so I need my account for work and to book gigs. I've been locked out for almost a month due to a platform bug, and have tried and exhausted every possible avenue of support.

 

When a dragon looms overhead, casting its dreadful shadow upon the town, panic and chaos ensue. Peasants abandon their homes in haste, guards grasp their weapons with trembling hands, and even the most seasoned heroes of the town shiver with dread. However, the Olympian is the exception, harboring no fear within their heart. Instead, they are driven by an unwavering compulsion to confront the dragon that has dared to make its presence known.

The path of the Olympian empowers the barbarian to face creatures of myth and legend. Often misunderstood as reckless fools, drunken rabble-rousers, or lunatics courting death, Olympians view the formidable beings they challenge as stepping stones on their ascent to greatness. To these fearless individuals, common thugs are but minor nuisances, for they roam the land in relentless pursuit of titans, dragons, legendary beasts, and sometimes even gods.

This homebrew subclass is inspired by mythological heroes such as Hercules, Thor, and Beowolf, as well as games such as God of War and Shadow of the Colossus. The indomitable Olympian has no fear, and is driven by the urge to hunt down the biggest, baddest mfs out there. They possess unique abilities that enable them to track down worthy opponents, withstand their most powerful attacks, and take down titans with ease.
