plausibilities

Thank you for your contribution!

Keeping that "Just buy a shitload of cheap-o eBay 2U/4U hand-me-downs" workflow viable for years to come :D

Wasn't NordVPN recently pwned via an IPMI security hole?

iLO is kind of a piece of crap, but I do love my Xen and resource pools

People in wealthy gated communities often don't lock their front doors. Similar principle.

They're being snarky and accusing you of being an edgelord.

Your level of detachment feels extreme to them and upsets them and thus they've deemed it a gimmick/act.

You didn't see this coming considering how long they've been pushing the "Single File Component" narrative?

Yeah but some clueless hiring manager will read it and think he's a proactive go-getter or some shit like that

Employer making me choose between career advancement and LOB success and then tying my job security to the latter.

I usually have comparable or better options available at any given time due to the sheer number of recruiters who are constantly floating things my way.

An up-to-date, relevant skillset is worth a potential 5 figure pay bump in the near future, which tends to be much more lucrative than slightly increased job security at my current pay rate.

They usually get one screw-up before I skip out for a better paying gig.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

Have more than tripled my salary in the last 6 years hopping around like this.

But honestly, I'm also just not a fan of management styles which attempt to extract additional value via appeals to fear.

Usually if I see workplace management react to crunch time by letting shit roll downhill while making negative implications about how resistance might impact job security, that instantly puts me in job hunting mode.

I might stick around for a bit to help out people on my team that I actually like, but at that point I'm already mentally checked out and looking for my next gig.

greybeard spotted :P

If you're not a scrub, go through non-scrub recruiters, and manage to get through a handful of high-vis projects relatively unscathed, word travels extremely quickly and from then on out you can pretty much coast mostly on reputation.

It's a small world out there sometimes.

We've all already been successfully trolled.

The well has already been poisoned.

Paranoia has now been compounded.

Clarity regarding contemporary domestic political landscape has now been further muddled.

Effective astroturfing was always a secondary objective.

What I'm hearing you say is that the rapid increase in flexibility of choice within the JS ecosystem has a tradeoff of enabling dilettantes to further muddle the mixture.

I would argue that we should not be intentionally relying on technical design decisions to bust through difficulties which are more related to human factors and office politics than software architecture or implementation.

The scope of any given human experience reaches far beyond that of direct visual/tactile interactions.

For instance, how is Prime 2-day shipping not considered part of the purchasing experience?

Having an extra negative 400 to 500 calorie offset on a daily basis can be incredibly helpful considering a lot of creeping weight gain is caused by a caloric surplus of only a couple hundred per day.

Greybeard BB Golden Rule: If Techy doesn't play nice, Techy goes to Coventry

A sound card w/ decent surround sound features (Creative <3), noise cancelling headphones, and good map awareness & position play gave me a far higher KDA in CS 1.6 and Source than practicing with the AWP til my eyes and fingertips bled.

The Shift key became infinitely more useful once my ears acclimated to the setup change.

In many ways it's not so different than billiards/snooker/pool. Being a good shot-maker helps but just about all the consistently performing pros focus first and foremost on position-play and thinking several shots ahead.

If I didn't care about rounding I'd just use a primitive constructor

    ['1', '7', '11'].map(Number)

Why would you use parseInt over Math.round if you only expect a single arg?

Seems like you'd only want to use parseInt if you expect to need radix changes at some point, e.g. converting between hex strings, decimal values, and binary strings

    ['1', '7', '11'].map(Math.round)
    // => [1, 7, 11]

    [["00000001", 2], ["00000111", 2], ["0x0B", 16]].map(x => parseInt(...x))
    // => [1, 7, 11]

Shimano also makes expensive high-end fishing reels.

They go for anywhere from a couple hundred to 1k+ (like the Stellas) apiece and you typically want 3 - 5 rod/reel setups when going on a fishing trip.

Maybe their target audience doesn't primarily consist of entry-level devs relegated to maintaining legacy eCommerce web properties and back-office portal/intranet systems?

No it doesn't.

But being poor DOES mean lowered efficiency with respect to an astonishing number of steps involved to achieve the desired outcome.

And when you have enough of these lowered efficiencies at one time and they begin to compound like interest...

Not always a pretty picture.

I keep thinking Digital Signals Processing Q__Q

It's shocking how far up you can make it in enterprise environments on pure bluster alone.

Perhaps a contributing factor to the Peter Principle?

Anecdotally, the comfort of tailored/fitted apparel can vary based on your body composition.

This is as someone who used to weigh around 255 and now weighs around 170.

The more fit you are, the more comfy fitted/tailored apparel tends to be.

If you are atypically shaped due to various fat deposits, tailored clothing becomes more difficult to get just right in order to not pinch/restrict you in all the wrong places.

Yeah, I'd much sooner consider the likes of Best Made Co. as "preppy" outdoor gear than Patagonia.

The contrast is quite stark.

The only things I don't care for from Aldi are their canned sodas and some of their yogurts due to the sugar contents being somewhat higher than many typical name brands.

The rest is great!

Handyman Contractor mentality vs Civil Engineer mentality in a nutshell

Unfortunately not everyone cares about resilience and certain performance thresholds when it comes to construction, especially when budgets become involved.

Some customers will are happy to cheap out for a hack-job remodel in the hopes that they can flip their home and run off before the bagholder realizes they got a lemon.

This. Accessibility should ideally take into account different levels of information processing abilities. While some of us are happy to sacrifice what we feel is a negligible amount of visual context for visual aesthetic, others may need that extra context and cannot afford such a luxury.

holy shit yes, that's uncanny

That's why you switch to Sheiko methodology once you break past the n00b gains
