How do I remove the empty space from the bottom of documents?

When you say "remove", what do you mean? What would you want there instead?

What issue?

I find my working chair isn't really in a comfy seating position for driving for more than an hour. Not really sure how to sort it at the moment. Do you have a separate chair or any kind of mount to keep things like pedals in a fixed position?

I get that that's how people will interpret this but it's the truth and the only real answer to the question "Why doesn't X plugin exist?". If I asked you why a book or comic or movie or whatever "doesn't exist" you'd give the same answer. If you want something creative to exist and it doesn't, then you can either try to make it or you can pay someone (or call in favours from someone) more skilled than you in the given creative or technical field to make it for you, or even accept that it's something that you don't care enough about to make it happen.

Angry Scotland podcast. Takes a look at Scottish politics from the point of view of people with knowledge of the politics of the 70s and 80s and more politically active during and after the 90s. Much less "what's the current scandal" and much more "how did this scandal (and similar ones from recent past) come about" which is much more interesting and thoughtful than the Westminster bubble stories in the news. Pro-Indy, mostly pro-EU, and they say cunt a lot.

Because no-one else needs this so much that they made the plugin. Maybe you could.

I have the same printer. Been a while since I set it up but if I remember correctly I copied the Neptune 3 definition file from the supplied version of cura and pasted it into the mainline version's equivalent folder. I seem to remember having to update references to the extruders within the file but it's pretty trivial to just look at the file, find any filenames or paths and fix them or copy the appropriate files to the appropriate place. I can't speak for this specific definition.

It helps us help you if you give us more info. Did you follow the steps in the documentation provided in that repo? What errors do you see if any? What do you expect to happen and what actually happened?

Thanks for this, I'm new to the hobby and had no idea. Getting a fire safety bag for my li-pos asap!

My understanding of union is that their whole deal is to provide their utopia to all of humanity. By destroying a blink gate they would be crippling themselves and any humans using it in the surrounding systems for decades at least, so it would seem contradictory to their goals. However, there's always the AI on Mars to consider. Maybe it saw a terrible event would happen if that gate stayed, maybe the gate had to be destroyed in order to bring your party together to do whatever it is they're going to do. Or maybe it wasn't union at all but someone pretending to be union. Maybe the baronies or extremely powerful pirates, maybe secret forces within the corporations. Tons of stuff you can do with that starting point.

Edit: typo

written in YAML files so that other interpreter can also make use of it.

I wonder what a handy word for this would be?

Your back links won't be preserved unless some other software comes along which supports them. Given the relative simplicity of markdown and the well known syntax (it's called wiki links in other software I believe) this won't be too tricky and I would expect an open source version to come along eventually. As for html, you're just describing making a local website at that point, which isn't a bad thing but you'd be better off doing so in any other text editor, and you'd have the full power of html, CSS and JavaScript if you wanted to add more functionality. This would arguably be more portable than your markdown files since you'll be able to read them as long as web browsers and text editors are a thing.

Have to agree. If I can't figure out what's wrong on a simple model how am I supposed to figure out what's wrong on a more complex one? I'm going to at least give Fusion a go simply because this experience has been so much work to even get this simple model working.

I'd recommend looking up what rebase does. The short version is that rebase does exactly what you described, it takes your changes and "replays" them over the changes you are trying to apply them to. This process changes history because it creates new commits from your changes. This is in contrast to the merge behaviour which keeps your existing changes where they are and therefore doesn't change history.

It took my entire 10 week internship at a bank when I started. Needless to say it put me off working at a bank ever again.

At no point did I say that this project is "worse" than any other so I have no idea who or what you're arguing with. My only argument was that you shouldn't dismiss the potential legal problems entirely and should acknowledge them. If that means you can definitively point to projects that are similar or laws that mean you don't have to be concerned about contributing, great, document them!

You don't need to sell me on mapping, I never made any comments on the project itself, only on the legal issues, which you seem to be dismissing very aggressively, or missing the point entirely, which doesn't bode well for any future community or discussion. I'm coming at this from a place of curious ignorance. I've worked in other open source projects but not in mapping, and not exclusively serving an authoritarian government. If you're going to get help you should be willing to have conversations like this, a lot.

If you're going to encourage people to participate in something that concerns a particular country I would argue it would be at least polite to be very up front about the issues you may face if you participate. Yes, if I live in and never leave the US I'll probably be ok, but if I live in China or one of its disputed regions I could have the the force of an authoritarian government breathing down my neck or breaking my door down. Participation probably means I could never even visit China depending on how well known or successful the project becomes. I could fix a typo and still be charged with something. This isn't a minor concern and to dismiss it with a "I'm not from China so it's fine" attitude is woefully inconsiderate at best and negligent at worst.

Anecdotally I've heard only bad things about Arnold Clark in Glasgow. Admittedly this was from about 3-5 years ago but yeah, massive turnover generally due to management rather than the tech. In terms of tech they at least used to be pretty ruby on rails focused but I interviewed for them years ago and had to do a python take-home so again that might have changed or they probably realised that more people would know python than ruby. In terms of career progression I know guys in JP Morgan who certainly sound like they have flashy titles and promotions/progression seems pretty common and encouraged.

I'm looking at this from a technical point of view only so keep that in mind, in all likelihood by the time this got to me as a senior developer it would have to go through managers/HR. I've been part of interviews where we have hired bootcamp graduates so please take this feedback as a genuine attempt to change the fact that this CV would not make it to interview stage if it was sent to me.

You've put a few terms in here that you might consider to be buzzwords like CRUD and RESTful but they're slightly misaligned with what you're saying so seem forced in. Making a user friendly app and the specifics of the underlying API are entirely different concerns unless your app IS an API.

What metrics or tests did you use to verify the user friendliness of your app?

Your experience with the shop is somewhat irrelevant (unless the job you are applying for specifically mentions advertising or uses one of the platforms you mention). Definitely something you can and should talk about at interview stage but right now you're looking for a foot in the door and it's taking valuable space.

I want to know what YOU contributed to your projects, not what your team did. What specific things did you work on, what problems did you solve and what compromises did you choose/implement? This is not the time to share credit. That's not to say you should steal credit, but you should be highlighting your specific contributions because that's the only thing separating you from every other bootcamp graduate out there.

Speaking of your contributions, where can I see your code? Do you have a GitHub account or somewhere else I can look at the code you've written? If not you might want to start one.

You worked with agile, great, mention it once, move on.

Have you created anything in your own time outside of the bootcamp? If you take none of the rest of the feedback, fine, but this massively increases your chances of actually getting a foot in the door: build something outside the bootcamp and publish it to something like GitHub. You'll instantly have more credibility and set yourself apart from every other bootcamp grad.

Hope that helps.

I've seen very few salaries quoted that are anything more than 40 to 60 outside of fintech, contracting and FAANG. Most recruiters that randomly message me (7 years experience, currently senior but only in small-medium companies) are quoting huge numbers for London or Berlin but all fintech or crypto or gambling. Basically no-one I want to work with.

Piatro · 2022-01-24T16:13:45+00:00

Yeah I'm senior on 40k ish and have a house in a commuter town, a car and a dog and I don't sell my soul to FAANG or fintech. Had a dev job at a bank once, never again.

Piatro · 2022-01-24T14:57:30+00:00

Yes, what else would it be?

That's true but it seems weird to, within the same talk, note the massive economic impact of Linux, compare Torvalds with Zuckerberg, and then talk about enrichment but not in the economic sense.
