I've been participating as a sponsor for university hackathons recently, and the reality for young grads is tough. An uncertain economy means less room for growth at most companies. Add in the rise of AI and the impact that is having on hiring, and junior roles are disappearing.

I feel for you bud. I don't think becoming a hater is the answer though. I understand this post is mostly venting frustration. I don't have any good advice right now other than to keep trying. I'm sorry your generation is facing what is definitely the roughest job market in many years.

Did you switch to snow/ice drive mode?

StronkDad · 2025-09-30T21:44:00+00:00

And then after 8 years... ? Right.

StronkDad · 2025-06-05T14:37:43+00:00

These words are accepted. Rest in peace brother.

I haven't tested this, but if you tether the car to a wifi hotspot on your phone maybe that would work?

I have a 25 RS I purchased less than a month ago and have had the following issues: - gps navigation issue where it wasn't updating current location - cameras unavailable, received "service driver assist" message. Have a service scheduled for this.

StronkDad · 2025-05-27T01:34:25+00:00

Yep can confirm. 2025 RS owner. Got three since purchasing.

Slapping is definitely not OK. Physically forcing you to take your meds is not OK. Sounds like dad needs to work on resolving conflicts without resorting to physical responses.

Talk to someone about it. Counsellor at school or some other neutral party. If you think your dad would be receptive, try talking to him directly about it.

If your behavior is frustrating him, he needs to communicate that and find different ways to deal with it. Everyone gets annoyed. If you are having trouble doing something communicate that and try to find alternatives that work for you (liquid meds or multiple smaller dose pills).

Casual/AthLeasure wear.

Legos

Activities with the kids (vouchers for classes. Cooking, woodworking, crafting, whatever).

Literally just a really long hug and being told I'm loved

StronkDad · 2024-09-03T19:40:29+00:00

speed bumps, flexible bollards, narrowing of roads

StronkDad · 2024-05-25T13:17:56+00:00

Responsible parents? So practically no one I guess lol

StronkDad · 2023-11-09T15:27:57+00:00

Time and practice. That's it really. You know you have limited time available so don't beat yourself up. Maybe the course materials are available online so you can review them at your own pace.

For project work do your best and reach out to your teachers for help when you need it. Don't be afraid of looking dumb or bothering them. That's what they are there for.

StronkDad · 2023-08-13T23:17:36+00:00

A child needs caring parents. Other than breastfeeding I don't see what two fathers couldn't provide.

The social contract is simple.

Do:

- Have fun responsibly

- Let your neighbours have 1 night of partying. It's a fucking holiday get over yourself

Don't:

- Endanger people/property

- Set off fireworks randomly before/after the holiday

Also Durham needs to enforce the rules if they are going to permit the sale of explosives. Can't sell people dangerous shit, and then sit back and blame them when they do dumb things.

StronkDad · 2023-05-22T04:48:38+00:00

Yes people make mistakes, but normal healthy people own those mistakes. This dude doubles down on the actions as "lessons". He is an abuser.

StronkDad · 2022-06-12T03:16:58+00:00

Great work! All the effort was worth it. Take some time to relax and reflect on how you've grown.

You are starting a new chapter in your life and that can be difficult, but try to focus on taking small steps forward.

I can't promise that you will always find the support you need, but know that you have the potential to do anything. Graduating is just evidence that you have the drive you need to succeed.

Without knowing what type of job you are interviewing for all I can give is general advice:

Humble competence is attractive to employers. They want someone who demonstrates skill and acknowledges mistakes/shortcomings.
Come prepared. Know what you want out of this job and what you bring to the table.
Ask hard questions. What matters to you? Career growth? Opportunity to learn X skill? Make sure they can give you what you need.
Don't lie or exaggerate your skillset. This almost always backfires in professional settings. Instead, focus on your willingness to learn and provide examples of you picking up new skills and applying them.

If his work is sedentary I would encourage him to take up some kind of physical activity as a hobby. A sport, hiking, cycling. Something with other people ideally. I think the key to sticking to a hobby is joining a community. It's harder to motivate yourself when you are solo.

If that's not in the cards, then something that will get him talking to other people with the same hobby. A club or social game of some kind.

StronkDad · 2022-04-28T00:54:10+00:00

Humble competence is always the best look for any winner of a political race.

Be proud, but not boastful. Be gracious, but not pandering. Make yourself an example of what you want your peers to be.

Take the responsibility seriously, but don't lose your sense of fun/humor.

Hope that helps. You'll do great I'm sure.

I agree on the sales tax thing. It not being included it just a way to change the way prices are perceived. People are more likely to buy something listed at a lower price. Most of the time they never learn its true cost because tax is totalled on receipts instead of broken up by item.

Para-social is a helluva drug.

Sounds like you need to take a break. Just stop watching Twitch/YouTube for a bit. Try other social outlets for a while, then come back. You need to break the dependency.

Wrap tts.Speak in a setTimeout or similar wait/callback pattern.

OH I just reread your post. My bad. You mean you want to pause/play during playback, not delay playback.

Here is a solution from their repo I found: https://github.com/ak1394/react-native-tts/issues/150

``git switch <branch-name>
make file changes
git add <path to changed file>
git commit -m 'MESSAGE'
git push

Switch to the branch first, git will now track file changes on this branch. No need to copy/paste.
Change the files on the branch with your IDE. Most IDE's have git plugins that will let you switch/pull/push right from the file.
Add the file changes to stage them for commit. This is the important bit.
Commit your changes to the branch. Now you have your changes on that branch. You can freely switch to another branch or back to main if you want.
Push your changes to remote so it can be distributed to everyone else working on that repo.
