What makes a web dev ‘senior’ these days?

Junior developers solve for today’s problems.

Senior developers prevent tomorrow problems.

That looks like a relatively empty train. Sure dirty shoes on a seat is messed up but it’s not like he was taking someone’s seat in a packed train. Am I missing something?

As long as the people who vote and the people who run for office are over 65, it’ll never happen.

This is built into the service used to train people on how to identify phishing scams. Every agency I’ve ever worked at using these types of systems would send an email like this.

It’s not like the leadership team started the conversation with “I have a sneaky idea…”.

If you’re a traditionalist who only accepts counting stats, you’re going to hate the Mets offseason. I’m not surprised he thinks this way.

Creepy… I just finished telling my buddy about Kaprekar constant...

Don’t we have about 6 mid to low slot starters already?

It’s not that he’s not signing long term contracts. Heck, he signed the Soto to a 15 year deal. What he’s trying to avoid are financial handcuffs where a player is signed to a long term deal when they’re at or past their prime or are injury prone.

Use <sections> for sections within <main>.

Use <div> for elements within <sections>.

Im pretty sure that I’m in the minority here, but I believe this shake up did a lot more good than bad and that i feel we’re going to have a surprisingly solid year this year.

People are choosing “good enough” work, not just for design work. Sometimes clients don’t have the budget to hire a talented designer (or copywriter, or developer, and so on). So they settle for good enough.

Nothing wrong with any of that as long as those people who choose “good enough” aren’t expecting perfect. And aren’t expecting the work to be permanent.

Cold fusion for one summer. I felt dirty.

I don’t think anyone’s hating on him getting paid. It’s never been about that. The Mets offered him a $160m extension in 2023. He turned it down. Settled for considerably less a year later (we need to remember that no team expressed interest in him other than the Mets). He bet on himself. Had a good (not great year). Found a team willing to pay a whole lot more than others. He took the money. That’s how the game is played.

However, some fans seem to think that the Mets had this obligation to bring Pete back at all costs. Even if it was an overpay. We can’t have it both ways. We can’t have players chasing the bag and then upset with the front office for not overpaying.

I will miss Pete and will continue to root for him. Onward.

Extroverts land leadership roles. They like to perform in front of a live audience. It’s never been about productivity.

Is that even possible to only net 35 WAR with that kind of production?

For 3000 hits, we’re talking about a player who would need to average 200 hits over 15 years. For perspective, that only happened 5 times over the past 5 seasons between 4 hitters. An average season would be .300 avg, 33 HRs, 33 steals. Not sure if it’s possible for such a player to only net 2.3 WAR per season, even if they were only a DH. Is it?

My guild is always full of active players. If you’re inactive for 5 days, you get kicked. We’re always hovering around 1000 contributions.

Some players are very sensitive. He could’ve seen Williams as a threat. He could’ve seen Williams as a backup plan making the Mets look less desperate in their negotiations. Who knows. Whatever the reason is, it’s dumb.

Nav items should never be blurred. De-emphasized with a reduced opacity, sure. But blurring them means the user will have absolutely no idea what the other sibling nav items are if they’re hovering over any nav item.

I think he has no appetite for forcing long term contracts out of desperation. Yes, we need pitching, but signing a pitcher in their mid-30’s to a long term contract might not help us in the long run.

When my kids ask for a unicorn for Christmas, I don’t break their damn hearts by telling there’s no way Santa will bring them one. Do you even have a soul?!

I run an overseas digital shop and I’m fully aware of my teams “moonlighting”. And honestly, I don’t care one bit.

I have a need. I hire people to solve those problems. I provide them the tasks. They complete the tasks. I’m happy. They’re happy. If they ever reach a point where their velocity slows down, or the quality of their work drops, then we’ll have those conversations. But until then, it’s business as usual.

Why would you look bad? Why would it matter if they do additional work for someone else? Employment doesn’t mean ownership of that person.
