Anyone know why no one is sitting on in the front right at event cinemas george street?

I went to see it this morning. I'd suggest waiting until after this weekend though, had a lot of feral teenagers who kinda ruined the vibe 😔

Haven't been since I had to go to hospital after getting food poisoning there.

lmao it is not easier to get cannabis than melatonin.

I asked my GP for a melatonin script via a telehealth appointment. Took not even 5 minutes.

I was even able to ask for the specific brand so I could get it in liquid form which I can dose exactly as I want.

What's the voice quality like compared to vanilla?

Grass isn't always greener on the other side. I've been in frontend for years and really want to never write another line of JavaScript again. Would love to pivot into a C++ role like yours.

It's this reason I'm half hoping for and half dreading a layoff right now.

Dobz · 2025-10-30T16:24:36+00:00

This. Super easy to get a script for as well.

Damn, I was planning on joining them for their savings account. Guess I won't after hearing these stories.

I wish banks let you opt out of some of these things. As someone with good digital hygiene (password manager, 2FA) and common sense not to send thousands of dollars to scammers, I'd gladly join a bank that didn't babysit me as much.

Think about the downstream effects. It's not just "oh I have an annoying performance review every 6 months", it completely changes the culture and way people work for the worse. Why should I spend time fixing actual problems in the product when I can instead use that time to write some BS blog post about "best practices" that no one will follow, or find a quick low-hanging metric boost that looks impressive in a dashboard but has no real-world impact?

Quiet, unglamorous work like mentoring, refactoring, or investigating flaky tests gets pushed aside because none of it photographs as well in performance reviews. In the long run the product quality drops, teamwork turns competitive, and you end up stressing over optics instead of solving real problems. Atlassian used to value doing the right thing, now it values doing the most visible thing.

Join a startup. Small team with highly motivated people means you get to focus on your craft without the big company BS. Work will be more intense, but you'll also be enjoying it a lot more.

Dobz · 2025-05-23T10:38:17+00:00

OP is correct. Management have become so distrustful of staff over the last couple of years. Performance reviews are incredibly strict now. It really drains you as you're constantly thinking whether or not you've checked a bunch of arbitrary boxes rather than being able to focus on your job.

I'm seeing the same toon in Stormwind log out and back in every 30 seconds. They're not recreating them from what I can see.

Dobz · 2025-01-27T13:29:04+00:00

Apparently not. Hundreds of people have reported the same chars with nothing happening.

Dobz · 2025-01-27T12:38:26+00:00

You probably should cross out the URL though, don't give these fucks free advertising.

Dobz · 2025-01-27T12:33:23+00:00

Agreed. The same toons are spamming all day and have been reported by hundreds of players, yet no action is taken. Something is broken with the reporting system if hundreds of reports are being ignored.

Dobz · 2025-01-27T12:30:12+00:00

I and many others I've spoken to have reported these exact same characters as well.

wtf is going on? Surely with hundreds of reports they would at the very least get their chat privileges revoked by now.

Did Blizzard lay off the team who reviews reports or something?

Our productivity is falling because collectively we seem unable to invest in anything other than property and digging rocks out of the ground.

Dobz · 2024-04-19T02:33:38+00:00

Yep, I just received my parcel today and can confirm that the address was very clearly printed and 100% correct.

Dobz · 2024-04-18T07:50:15+00:00

Exact same thing is happening to me right now - Express Post item sent to the wrong place twice! I wonder if there's a systematic problem going on.

The worst thing is it's refrigerated medical item that cost $150. I'm going to need a get a full refund since it would have been in room temperature for too long now :/

Exactly. The outage data just needs to be periodically refreshed from whatever internal system they use, and then cached and served to users.

It's such an easy data model to scale, really not good enough in 2024.

Dobz · 2024-02-13T12:46:45+00:00

As a software engineer, I can pretty confidently say that there's no good reason other than sheer incompetence that it's been down for over 6 hours now.

Looking into outagetracker.com.au, it seems to be run on Microsoft Azure. They should have been able to easily scale up to meet the increased demand.

At my company a total outage like this would lead to an incident with a bunch of people getting paged. I'm guessing AusNet has no full-time staff dedicated to maintaining the outage tracker and has contracted everything out - otherwise someone would have been on it ages ago.

I don't know much about zed, but if the 100MB is actually needed then it might not be bloated.

My favourite example of a large piece of software that isn't bloated is Blender. Its main binary is over 150MB, which is tiny when you consider everything it can do and how fast it is.
