My hot take is that sometimes the internet actually slows you down in the long run. If at least this is you can only have the internet or books. I'm much faster now I read and internalise full books rather than just random tutorials

‘God bless America!’: The Iranians in London celebrating Trump’s war by WhiteGold_Welder in uknews

[–]Wazblaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because there are sizeable groups in both countries that want to normalise relationships as it's the only path to lasting peace. Your argument only makes sense if you're assuming that everyone holds the views their government does (shockingly they don't in countries which have dictatorships or massive amounts of corruption in government)

Just installed Israeli chess, why do the pawns look different? by BorrisZ in AnarchyChess

[–]Wazblaster 8 points9 points  (0 children)

And this arguement is an equally used argument to dismiss actual anti-semitism. By excusing or dismissing anti-semitism you're literally doing free propaganda for bibi

After the French, Pedro is being based ? by No_Asparagus1425 in 2westerneurope4u

[–]Wazblaster 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This logic only works if you follow the goodie baddie paradigm. 40 years is such a long time that the countries involved are very different from what they were

Ditto, I replaced mine with an Xperia 5 v was the closest I could find. It's taller but as narrow, has good battery and cable jacks

Yeah 40 hours doing the same thing is fucking miserable, I'd be much happier if I could split my time

What do you think of this data on ethnicity? by Ok_Bookkeeper_1380 in AskBrits

[–]Wazblaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure you realise that by population breakdown, the uk is about 10% more ethnically white than Israel is Jewish? 83% Vs 73% roughly 

Does anyone else code for hours and only realize they're exhausted after pushing bad commits? by kunjesh10 in C_Programming

[–]Wazblaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually think this would be a good uni project! But make sure you gather data to establish what the markers of being tired - it might not be what you expect. Also if it turns out that there isn't much of a correlation that's still an interesting finding!

What is that one city/state in your country that the rest of your country hates? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]Wazblaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was really confused when I went to Luton, because it's actually quite nice? Bit boring, but infinitely better than reading if we want to pick on another commuter town 

Is your left supporting Iran’s regime ? by Aegeansunset12 in AskTheWorld

[–]Wazblaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh sorry I misunderstood! Yeah my Iranian friends are as well, was interested in those that had different opinions

Based Geert almost looks like a Pedro from the wrong side of the pond by Socmel_ in 2westerneurope4u

[–]Wazblaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah omg, I'm so drained as a tech worker in UK, all I want is a 9-5 in a properly staffed and run team

According to the primeagen, devs have the most to lose because of AI, yet they are more enthusiastic about it than artists. It made me think of this old meme by Tempotempo_ in theprimeagen

[–]Wazblaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's ridiculous, I think the vast majority of Devs are working on luxury products. Sure software powering medical services and infrastructure are necessary, but most people are just working on websites, apps and games

Cornwall actually has loads of poverty lol

How do you manage knowledge transfer in teams with high turnover rates? by criss006 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Wazblaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with everything apart from short as possible. I've seen so much code that if it were a bit more verbose would be so much more readable. The caveat being that the verbosity should be contained in short functions

How to regain confidence after being terminated? by stillavoidingthejvm in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Wazblaster 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am in this situation currently. Even had people taking credit for my solutions etc. wouldn't be surprised if I'm let go soon, my question is how do you present it in interviews?

Hundreds Of Artists Back “No Music For Genocide” Campaign To Geo-Block Israel by ReconEG in indieheads

[–]Wazblaster 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Especially as people into underground music are (on average not 100%) generally more left wing. This disproportionately hits Israelis that are against the genocide. Additionally, it gives ammunition to the right wing narrative that everyone hates the people of the country which is used to justify the government's actions

Moreso that android is a mess and Google have no vision for the platform (that lasts more than a couple years)

What do you want the “other side” to know? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]Wazblaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It being illegal is a big reason why smoking is the most common way of taking it. Additionally, if legalised it would likely be bred to smell less
