Figuring this shit out is a lot of work to be honest. Even a truthful source can be misleading as hell by omitting important context. Just like for hardware review, or video game review, or whatever, I try to find someone whose reporting omit nothing on some stuff I heavily researched (it’s rare), and only then I feel comfortable weighting in their report on the stuff I know less about.
On the other hand, a lot of people just eat everything up from some random source they grew up with because the alternative is a lot of work, mentally and emotionally.
That being said, there is a certain point where listening to those people’s opinions stop being fruitful. Hence, I don’t really care about any extremist views in places like Lemmy.
Don’t you just love being fed plausible deniability BS over and over and over again. I’ve lost friends over this bs. People who always argue in bad faith, always invoke plausible deniability, always min/max each interaction with hidden motives - should be given no attention and credibility. Unfortunately, those people strives in corporate environments, and as you would expect, they’re often responsible for marketing, PR, sales, and corporate strategies. Corporations are the annoying lying friends you don’t want around.
This is my stance as well. I have a decade of experience and I have been a workaholic, so at this point I wouldn’t want to work somewhere with that bs anyway. I also have experienced one great HR team.
That being said, I know how the game is played. A decade ago, I listed a dozen things on my resume I would have had trouble to demonstrate, but nowadays I can just build a nice story that is 100% truthful from cherry-picked facts. Sad truth is that if you’re too candid you might come off as too disengaged nowadays. I’ve seen it happen in interviews. Best to pretend that your life led to this moment, and that you’re that kind of person to find exciting whatever kind of work it is. If you lack experience for entry-level roles, just fill the gaps with lies.
It’s the same for every place you need to apply or pitch an idea where the places are limited. Criterias just get absurd, and even acing the criterias might not be enough. People who rise are simply the better bullshiters.
Years ago my friend received a call for a job, within minutes the HR person asked if he had a good experience with a certain language and he flat out said no, even though he had some very basic knowledge. The interview ended right there. I just couldn’t believe that he wouldn’t lie, he was perfect for the job, but HR does not care. He’s been in the same role for 10 years and unwilling to “lie” to get a promotion or a new role, so that is where we are. This 30% of honest employees is probably not getting the best jobs.
A) Take the L and don’t do it again.
B) Welcome to the internet.
Story is behind a paywall, so yeah, X to doubt.

Yeep, I think everyone with half a brain feared for the peaceful transfer of power early in his presidency, or even back during his first campaign. Reporters asked him every now and then if he’d accept the results and he always answered wannabe-dictator shit. Then to the leading to the 6th of jan it was plain as day that he would pull something with the mail-in bailots as a justification to overthrow the government. Then of course it fucking happens, and a third of the country is playing dumb. If you were reading the alt-right popular forum you knew it was meant to be their big day, a lot of people were armed that day but they pussied out
I made games primarily for Windows which we also compiled for Linux. It is mostly input/output stuff, aka hardware issues. That is, audio issues, input issues, storage issues, dependency issues. Modern game engine mostly handle the rest. It wasn’t such a big deal to fix, but most gamedev lacked experience with Linux, and most projects are already over budget and late, so fixing Linux for an extra 2-5% of sales didn’t make much sense at small scale. Proton kind off fixed all of this tho.
of all the games released on Steam in 2022, only 70 have hit the million dollars threshold. I think it is misleading to bundle all “indies” in one big basket. Those 70 games can afford to pay or negociate. Don’t get me wrong, total dick and amateurish move from Unity, but the amount of people around social media who believe game devs can just hit the threshold by accident and become unprofitable is ridiculous. Current gamedev here and ex Unity employee. It is worth denouncing Unity and fighting for our indies, but understand that this affect the 0.01%, literally. 70 games out of 6000 released games on Steam in 2022. Sure most games are shit and w/e, but you get the point.
Yep, to the point where it is actually hard to meet with someone who is not immediately expecting sex.
You can live off minimum wage in Canada in some regions, if you’re children-free. It gets harder with kids, though the state will cover some of it of you’re low-income (Like a couple hundred per months, and virtually no income taxes).
I can commend Kobo as well, I have an older model and I see no need to ever change.
We had unlimited PTO at my old job and I thought it was awesome. I’d take day off when sick, whenever I needed a break or I would pad my “annual” time off to extend my break over one extra weekend. This felt pretty standard in both places I worked with this policy. There was no question asked and no direct human interaction to take off. If people didn’t take advantage of that it is kinda on them imo. Not to remove anything from your point about forced PTO mixed-in.

My buddy works in a bank and they spelled it out loud that the return-to-office was in fact because of real estate, and making sure that the restaurants and business located in the same building had customers. He was admittedly pretty pissed. Makes you realize the futility of it all, all those useless jobs and useless commute. Do society really needs us to work, or are we used as pawns to pay for parking, over-priced coffee and to inflate commercial real estate value. Back to my buddy, he vowed to never ever buy anything in that building again lol.
How so?
