Lots of high paid roles are like that in reality
The game industry inherently unsafe. Studios go in and out of existence constantly.
Most .net projects are web API, and backend applications.
The problem is that many games and software still only work on windows.
You'll find a lot open source leaders, and CEOs of companies like framework are not progressive, they are libertarian. Which people mistake as progressive because it's often very socially liberal.
Trying to pressure them won't do do anything, because goes against libertarian values to force collective values on individuals.
Isn't that literally every distro? They're just curated pre installed packages.
Zoxide normally aliases to z. Is this not z?
When you have well off parents, you can literally be sent to prep schools which drill for these tests.
Because this is what companies want, and they pay us. So that's what we do.
Can't be multiuser
Nix is hard to get into. The lang is weird, and I'm a functional programmer. It's not very well documented. Flakes just don't seem to be documented at all? But are used everywhere?
I like DHH because I like his taste. However there are lots of people like him.
However he seems to have the ability to build movements, and I don't know why.

I've set the bridge as background Daemon so I barely know it's there.

The money is in working for a FAANG. So that's what Devs trains for.
There's not much money in working for a small saas unless you're the founder.

Tiny startups do them now as well.
These are the places that actually pay well.
Most work doesn't provide that anyway for the majority of people.
People test in production in all the time via Canary releases.
Because rewriting the kernel from scratch would literally cost billions. That's why. Literally criticising them for not achieving an impossible goal.
Rust is important here because it's one of the first(if not the first) to use the rust infrastructure for a GPU.
Being able to get hired at a company is often unrelated to being able to generate viable products.
If you want to get hired don't focus on skills to build useful things. Focus on psychology and charisma.
Founders of a lot of companies also tend to be dicks. But seems to do alright. Seems to be a double standard there
In the UK they are I think? Well if they want to be BCS accredited.
Ma gains
I have awful hay fever, so take them religiously.
That's because long term goals like that are probabilistic rather than deterministic.
You can follow the steps and still fail.
Where as washing the dishes pretty much has a guaranteed outcome.
You probably don't like taking the risk, or losing your investment of time and effort. So your brain doesn't like it.
I'm pretty sure people living off capital don't have that problem. It just won't be you.
This is explicit strategy companies use. To be expected
