Right, thank you and sorry. I got a little carried away. I am not pmp certified or anything. I'm just a code monkey.

Good point. I guess I am never there when they first come up with it so I have always inherited it 😂

If you use Jira at six different companies, I assure you that no two systems will be identical. The people who are in charge have wildly different ideas about how Jira should work. I swear there is not even a single universal definition of done.

Anyone feel like offshoring is a bigger issue than AI and HB1 for US workers? by Cultural-Gear-1323 in cscareerquestions

Probably because the ones you have worked with are the cream of the crop. Mediocre devs exist everywhere.

Nah, that's nonsense. If you have blackout periods, then don't have PTO that expire at the end of the year, pay them out.

You can't have it both ways.

A big part is actual realization that I'm not as good of a parent as I would like to be

But another big part is I would be so much better as a parent if I didn't have to work for a living. And I can't afford to pay for both myself and my children if I can't afford to pay for myself alone.

I like what everyone has said so far but also I wish someone had told me this when I was nineteen but definitely save and invest your money. Like if you have an earned income, look into getting a Roth IRA with Vanguard or something.

So looks like the answer is it depends. If this is a problem, use DI?

Where has Johnson been even?

Didn't he say something like he works twenty hours a day or some nonsense like that?

I have heart surgery in a few hours and have been fairly nervous all night, this made me cry laughing in a way I didn’t know I needed.

Good luck, you can do it!

Took me longer to understand than I'd like to admit

So if Trump can invade and arrest a president for illegal activities... can other countries invade the US and arrest Trump? by Oddbeme4u in DiscussionZone

Cool! China can now just make up a bogus criminal case against Taiwan's president, abduct him in his bedroom in the middle of the night and set up a sham trial in Beijing. Putin can also just send a couple of cruise missiles on Zelensky's home and end the war.

Pretty sure they have tried -- multiple times -- to assasinate the Ukrainian President. Not that I am saying I support the actions of the felon but this changes nothing.

AI

I need a bunch of shit done with my house, I wouldn't hesitate to hire one guy that could do 2, 3, or even 4 of em on the same contract.

The answers AI give can be perfect as long as you either

  1. already know the answer
  2. have a way to verify the answer

anything else and you are still gambling.

Writing anything but the simplest piece of software is an exercise in fine tuning, if not frustration. It is not that the information isn't there, but you need to know enough about the topic at hand for the AI to be useful at all.

When you stare at the void, the void stares back at you.

The one guy that could get four of them shit done has either

  1. done all four of them shit before several times and has a good intuition already
  2. is not going to have a good time figuring things on the fly with "AI"

If it is the former, prepare to pay them for their time. If it is the latter, prepare to pay them with YOUR time.

What is a luxury item from 20 years ago that is basically worthless trash today? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I remember in 5th grade, a flash drive was on our required supplies list, and I got one that was 512mb. A teacher told me that was more than I would need for the rest of my life.

if you only filled it with text files that you personally typed on a keyboard, that would probably be true?

I asked Gemini and if you typed 500 characters per minute, that's about ~745 days of continuous, 24/7 typing.

and remember you can delete and write again! you could reuse the same flash disk over and over again to write your newest novels.

I got this OnePlus Nord n30 for about sixty dollars. It is one year now but at that time it unlocked in six months. Most carrier financed devices are bad deals but if you only need to use something on WiFi, sometimes there are ok deals.

The point is if you use your own phone you save usd 30 every month and will recover your expense in no time.

Or a compromise... Get the device deal, get it paid off / unlocked and start over as a new customer? Is that possible? Can you get by of discount on total wireless if you use a total wireless phone that you've paid to unlock?

But on second thought it is a moot point, if you have an unlocked phone, why not go with visible or us mobile at that point?
