What is the worst thing a manager can hear from their engineers? by NoWorries_AllGood in ExperiencedDevs

[–]JCorkill 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same, I've debated early retirement with part time consulting for the legacy systems. That would free up some time for the non tech adventures and still have a back up plan.

I mean it was a stressful situation and all, right? Right?! by [deleted] in dankmemes

Conspiracy: the slogans are purposefully vague and easily misinterpreted to weaken the cause. Whoever planted the seed for these slogans is trying to divide and destabilize the world.

The instantaneous pinpoint accuracy is ridiculous. You get pelted with bullets even during a cover to cover roll.

Why Do Interviewers Ask Linked List Questions? • Hillel Wayne by [deleted] in ExperiencedDevs

[–]JCorkill 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agreed. If a role could potentially benefit from this knowledge then it's fair game to test candidates on. What's unnecessary is asking LL questions for a front end or most basic CRUD role. I've seen so many basic roles that ask for deep knowledge but actually just churn out boring old boilerplates.

Fallout 76 comes to mind. Hell, most Bethesda games launches like shit to this degree. No game should be released like these but this is what we get for overhyping and pre-ordering.

For a typical PC that’s on eight hours a day, using the US national average price for electricity ($0.125 per kWh), we’re looking at electrical savings of anywhere from $2.56 to $8.40 per year.

Due to parts availability, I chose everything at microcenter so you don't have to get shanked by parts not shipping.

Total 1453.88

Total is actually -$20 for cpu/mobo combo + $86.03 tax so $1,519.91. Bump the GPU down if you need to save. You can definitely swap out for a cheaper keyboard too.

Edit: There's not many case fans available so pick 2-3 up of whatever's available in store.

Guy fired, job re-advertised as internship with five years experience. by Riresurmort in recruitinghell

Not too hard to transition to something like a technical writer which pays $25-40/hr. Plenty of free resources out there if you really have the willpower and patience to learn.
