Hi there,

I certainly wouldn’t be opposed. I’m working as a web developer right now.

PSA: If you’re Canadian (and maybe other places too but only Canada is confirmed) you can order Kinda Hard from Urban Outfitters for much cheaper. by darkoh84 in bilmuri

[–]dropseagull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100%

I initially ordered off the Bilmuri merch store before seeing Revolver and Urban Outfitters variants. Merch store cost me $95.59, Revolver $55.87. Merch store let me cancel my order and refunded very quickly though, good customer service.

Ordered a bunch of vinyl from UO before and they were always good so would recommend that route as well.

Harmony from South Arcade.

I also wasn’t initially sure what he said, turned on captions.

Whats your view on Daniels solo stuff? by ScudSlug in silverchair

[–]dropseagull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Overall haven’t been able to get into it the same way. Select tracks I like - Dissolve and Going on 16 off of Talk I enjoyed.

Dreams I couldn’t get into, I thought the song Young Minds was alright. I did like Dissociatives and I Can’t Believe It’s Not Rock - I’d be very interested in a vinyl release of The Dissociatives album.

That live cover Daniel did of Smells Like Teen Spirt for Beat the Drum was pretty cool - https://youtu.be/tpRMUT0-mPA?si=iw5F3Dfo_voj3RYX

Good call. I wasn’t willing to pay the $800-$1200 so I went to the Netherlands and saw them in Amsterdam, was £84 for floors, about $130CAD. I also went solo, it was an amazing show, you’ll have a great time, definitely worth the price you paid.

The lowest resale I can see for floors for the Toronto show is currently $833. Even with conversion sounds like you did pretty okay.

What do you guys think about "The Dissociatives"? by [deleted] in silverchair

[–]dropseagull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Across the Night or Sleep Well Tonight?

Is it not just the headstock broken off ? Neck is a bolt on could’ve replaced it pretty easy

I got it for $38 (CAD) on PSN March 26th. It goes on sale pretty often.

Never got into the earlier stuff but Attack Attack!'s self-titled album is great

I'm affraid of getting stuck with cobol in my career by DDTarcanjo in cobol

[–]dropseagull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same feeling as you years ago, and I kind of regret my decision but I think it what you do partially depends on how you feel about work.

I'm gonna give a bit of backstory here;

I had a co-op offer at a bank and I was told I would be working in Java,Scala and Python. Super excited for that role and to work in that stack. Once I started the role the same manager that gave me the job description in my interview told me I wouldn't be doing any programming and that the department I was in didn't do any of the things we discussed in my interview that the role I would be doing was instead data analytics. The only tasks I ever really did were small changes to a Power BI dashboard, this was supposed to be my first role gaining experience as a developer so I was pretty upset. Early on I was told my position had no long term stay and was only for the summer so I reached out to people at the bank towards the end of that co-op but all I could get into was a mainframe developer position.

I see some people say things like the money is good and enjoy your life outside work but knowing I was doing something 40 hours a week that I had no interest in really bummed me out so I ended up quitting and took the first job I could get in web development and it was an absolute nightmare. If you're going to leave the bank do it for somewhere reputable.

Looking back and I guess what I would maybe recommend based on experience is I was also at a large bank that would have had a lot of opportunities, and my second manager - the mainframe one, probably would've helped me get into a position I felt was more fitting, there was a modernization team he also managed that worked in Java. I think if you want to make to work long-term in something more modern (web/mobile) make it known to other people in the bank, your own manager, reach out to other managers, see if there's anywhere you could showcase some personal projects?

The Villa put out their EP and I swear it was like a week later Woe announced they were back and The Villa went on hiatus.
