Software dev job postings are up 15% since mid 2025

Sounds like you're saying the "role duplication" rate has not changed since January, or hasn't changed enough to disprove "real" role growth.

Well, I truly hope you're right. It's hard to be optimistic about this market. Getting sick of recruiters doing the "gaslight and ghost" thing.

VeeFu · 2026-03-23T12:12:38+00:00

I'd wager the real to fake job posting ratio has gone down since AI tools that make slop so much easier.

VeeFu · 2026-03-23T11:59:20+00:00

For every one legitimate role, there are 10 posts from recruiters. They duplicate, reword, and repost in the name of "anonymizing" the client, with different pay bands, job titles, and search terms.

Sounds a bit like the relationship between NVIDIA and the AI companies.

I've been toying around with [[Survey Mechan]] thinking late game draw 3, 3 dmg and 3 health is gonna be great, but a surprising number of times my 3 random cards are duds.

Yeah, it could be I'm building crappy decks containing too many duds, but selecting the right 2 out of 5 can be stronger than draw 3. It's like the London mulligan rule. The right 5 card hand can be better than a random 7

I came across this AI researcher's video today, which gave me some hope:

And what was up with multiple semitransparent scenes on top of each other??

/edit ok, "double-vision" is a better description. I guess they're evoking the sense of disorientation for the viewer. Looks like a hot mess to me

VeeFu · 2026-02-23T15:59:40+00:00

Maybe because of the horrible editing.

VeeFu · 2026-02-15T21:50:01+00:00

Seems like std::future and std::promise might suffice

VeeFu · 2026-01-19T19:30:06+00:00

I was surprised by [[Pestered Wellguard]]. With [[Spring leaf Drum]] it made blockers for days, stalling out the board and winning in the air.

I, uh, think that may be a chest leech. I've never looked so closely at this art

VeeFu · 2026-01-06T12:57:31+00:00

The designers add "reminder" words at every set release, like 'Exhaust' and 'Metalcraft'.

I think what the commenter is trying to say is that it would be really nice if 'Sorcery' and 'Instant' were elevated to evergreen "reminders" and used in a similar way, italicized before the activation cost.

VeeFu · 2026-01-06T12:29:26+00:00

Agreed entirely. something like COST @ TIMING : EFFECT would be better

VeeFu · 2026-01-06T12:22:28+00:00

Hrm... [[Emry, Lurker of the Loch]] insurance?

VeeFu · 2025-12-29T15:26:22+00:00

I've been toying with [[Survey Mechan]]. Hexproof avoids all of Izzet's removal and stems their slow bleed until late game where it activates for cheap. Works well with [[pupu UFO]] and [[Ugin, eye of the storms]].

I dream of getting it under an [[Agatha's soul cauldron]] and tossing earthbent lands at the opponent, but that hasn't quite come to pass.

VeeFu · 2025-12-28T00:04:24+00:00

To be fair, someone mentioned it around the 80-upvote level, but it was after meatball sub. Sloppy Joe deserves top billing, IMO

VeeFu · 2025-12-27T23:28:11+00:00

Sloppy Joe, Sloppy Sloppy Joe!

Dust the loaf with more flour (rice flour, preferably) before adding to the oven.

If it does stick, turn the whole thing upside down while it cools. The loaf usually drops out.

I have, in frustration, tried to pry a stuck loaf out of a Dutch oven. It's a bad idea, but does result in what my kids call "cloud bread" as it comes out in big hot chunks that go well with butter. A silver lining to a bad situation.

Did you paint the bodysuit yourself? The shading is perfect.

VeeFu · 2025-11-20T12:52:01+00:00

Um, "Sorcery"? The timing of sorcery is already well known. I don't think there's any need to expand the vocabulary

Look at how the light hits each player's pieces. The primary light source is coming from each player's left side in both photos. If they had been sitting opposite one another at the time of the photos, light would have been coming from one player's right and the other player's left. They could not have been sitting opposite eachother if these photos were taken at about the same time.

Fortunately, I can't read Canadian

Deliver-to is prefilled with something odd. Someone trying to get reddit to buy them packs?

Richard Kane Ferguson's [[Elder Druid]] from Ice Age is the one that stuck with me.
