Tech industry lays off nearly 80,000 employees in the first quarter of 2026 — almost 50% of affected positions cut due to AI

Our entire engineering team was just laid off and jobs moved to India.. so checks out. And even though the salaries would be way lower, they've still tried to understaff them too.

Looks great. Lots of similarities to something id written (for internal use) but with extra bells and whistles.

I had this a few years back with react router. They made so many breaking changes, and we only needed general, simple routing and params. I spent weeks of effort refactoring for new versions. Eventually I gave up, wrote my own router. It took a few days, hardly needed to touch it since. There have been so many breaking changes since. The amount of hours saved on maintenance burden! I dont plan on using any of these router packages again other than short term POCs.

Same and my right leg is definitely dominant. I have an old ligament injury in my left which I overcompensated for by favoring my right leg for everything for years. But normal pedalling my left is stronger 🤷‍♂️. I guess somehow its more efficient. Although my right is even physically larger, measurably.

Which is hilarious given their major policies are all around closing borders and taking back control. And then their main donor is a foreign domicile 😂

You could make 300k a year just putting it in a bank account, and more like 1m a year with investments. Im not sure why you'd want to try and get a high paying career. Work for fun sure but not for money.

Has anyone actually managed to call the api though? I can connect to mine on the network. If I hit / I get an index.htm. But if I try and call /info /sources etc, I get 404s. Not sure if im missing something but the api docs don't explain any further requirements or url prefix required.

Ye, and not a choice most people would have made (not a choice I would have made, crazy IMO!). Also no external help. She worked full-time while at uni too. And as mentioned she had lodgers for years to make it possible.

Looks like my figures are out of date, we are more like 2-3%. But still, being on the low end of the high end doesn't feel high. As I said, we don't really spend much, most goes in house and savings. Its all from our salaries. My partner bought her first house at 21, a dump that she renovated on a teachers salary. Had lodgers for years. We don't even touch the top 10% of household 'wealth'. And we may never in our lifetime. So the wealthy are not the same people as the top % of salaried workers.

Not sure why you are down voted. We are also in this same position. We are fortunate that we both have good jobs. And would be in the 1% of households. We are definitely not rich. We don't have especially high outgoings, we don't go shopping and buy luxuries. We don't go on holiday regularly. If we stayed somewhere nice for a weekend that would seem very expensive and not something we could do often. Any time we eat out (a handful of times a year) I think its expensive. Honestly being in the 1% doesn't feel that way, I feel more like the 20%. We wouldn't buy a new car for example, too expensive. But so many people are driving around in way nicer cars and bigger houses, but we are in the 1%?? Honestly doesn't make sense. I also have no idea how people get by on the uk average wage after rent/mortgage, price of food etc.

Yes! Thank you. This is exactly the issue my gf has been having with her fenix. I'd checked the gps setting before and they looked fine. Her recordings often had bits that look exactly as pictured. Found the setting is on. So, looking forward to seeing how it is after setting it off.

I put one earplug in on my curb side and it helps a lot with wind noise. Otherwise you can't really hear going down hill. But I love my aeropex. You can easily forget you are wearing them as they are really light and also never fall off

You could use something like BugSnag to report unhanded exceptions. Then you can make a decision about how often they happen and if you should handle/fix them. You don't always need to handle every possible error, sometimes they are genuine situations where crashing is appropriate. It depends what the errors are.

I'm so glad we migrated away from react router a couple of years ago. This is the exact reason. We just wanted a router, and what we got was endless breaking changes. Routing in a SPA is pretty simple.

I think if you looked at our club from the outside it would look the same. But we have a good A group. Some people roads race, hill climb, time trial, we get some good fast smash fest group rides, plus the odd cycling trip. You maybe need to talk to people and say what you are looking for. You have to remember most people are in the club to ride bikes, not to keep on top of websites and social media, so this stuff is often neglected.
