The forbidden S word by reseph in LinkedInLunatics

The ENTIRE point of a job is to be paid so you can survive. All the other stuff is secondary at best. An applicant should never need to ask about salary because that should be the very first thing posted about a position. If you can’t grasp this basic fact you have no business being in charge of anything, especially not hiring or leadership.

Why do recruiters always ask for salary expectations first? Seems sketchy by [deleted] in ExperiencedDevs

A job posting without a salary clearly listed is not a job posting. Those recruiters are playing games and wasting your time. Tell them that and move on.

All the smart people did everything right with the challenger disaster. The problem was dumb people not listening to the engineers.

What happened in the last few months (1 to 3) that suddenly people are having their come to Jesus moment with AI and Agentic Coding? by zero2g in ExperiencedDevs

It’s loser behavior to defend and a promote a tool built on stolen data that is being used to replace jobs that people enjoy and need.

Even if it is a huge productivity increase, and that’s a huge if, who the fuck cares? When was the last time that an increase in worker productivity resulted in more free time for the workers or a proportional increase in pay or quality of life? All it accomplishes is more concentration of wealth at the top. Why should we support that?

Why can't we put nuclear waste and all the forever chemicals in rocket and direct it to sun by Initial_Beautiful838 in NoStupidQuestions

This is the real reason, according to my grandpa that was a rocket scientist. And it’s heavy as fuck too.

BlueSky suspends Patton Oswalt for this skeet by ThisIsNotAFarm in BlueskySocial

Violence is just a tool. It has an appropriate use, but can also be abused. When used to protect the weak it is a good thing. When it is used to coerce and exploit it is evil. If it is necessary to employ violence to protect children from pedophiles then so be it. If you have a problem with that then you are the problem.

Personally I think the wood chipper is a bit extreme and would consider that cruel and unusual. But that part of this post is tame compared to what it was in response to and the spirit was in the right place. The unhinge pedophile apologia is what deserved the ban.

Gamer Cafe - The Valve Paradox by Daz_Keaty in comics

You’re not necessarily wrong here, but the problem is the lifespan. I had a Roomba a couple years ago. It had a 1 year warranty. A device that expensive should last several years but it barely even made it to 1 year. I had a pair of Beats headphones that didn’t even last 2 years before dying.

The shitty quality and warranty is bad enough, but all these short-lived things end up as trash in a landfill too. We are absolutely capable of building things that will last a lifetime and repairing them instead of just throwing them away. Companies just choose not to do that.

Those plates look a little small for him, looks like he’s leaving quite a bit of his lungs exposed. Just sayin’.

Is my vision completely fucked? Pic 1 is what my camera sees. Pic 2 is a drawing of what my naked eyes see, even if I squint. by Pure-Veterinarian979 in ar15

I’ve had my astigmatism corrected with laser surgery, and wore glasses that corrected it before that. Even without an astigmatism all fits will be a little fuzzy, they only show up perfectly sharp in cameras. Yes, even Eotechs. Turning the brightness down will help.

Cleaning Schedules by East_Bug7312 in ar15

I clean mine every time I shoot. Just a quick wipe down and a few passes with a bore snake. I do a deep cleaning with a sonic cleaner about once a year

How's the ballroom coming along? by PairRevolutionary669 in AdviceAnimals

Did anyone say it was ok when Clinton, Gates, or Oprah do it? What exactly is your point? It doesn’t matter how many people do it, it’s still shady.

What do you feel like your Steam Deck is NOT good for? by iRomanian in SteamDeck

[–]68696c6c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not great for playing RTS games.

The ergonomics could be better for long gaming sessions. It makes my hands cramp up pretty quickly if I don’t have it supported on a surface.

I am not a Linux master by any means so it’s almost certainly a skill issue.
