They mostly don’t even give out desktops to devs these days, everything is in the cloud.

It’s mostly software engineers, and distributed across almost every team.

I love my stream of Star Trek shitpost.
It’s all bullshit, and you’ve hit the nail on the head.
The only way out is through each other: change your workplace to be less bullshit. Demand dignity. Maybe bring your friends and make a co-op.
Ironically, as I’ve become more senior (11+ years at a faang company) I’ve had to do less and less of that “look around and understand everything” work because of time pressure. But I rely on my experience to be more confident that I can ignore the details and focus on the reason I’m in this file.
Well, that, and if it gets too messy I give up and call in a junior engineer…
Down with states and stature
Strive instead to ready
Through direct radical action
Root changes grow fruitful
Refreshed from old ashes
Our society rises
We sow personal power
To free all the people

This is because your operands are const char[]. That’s not a std::string.
C++ does, but it’s not a very efficient operation. https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/string/basic_string/operator%2B
“well actually” room temperature superconductors do exist, quite definitely! … But only at 100 gigapascals of pressure. https://uspex-team.org/static/file/Troyan2022_ufn227g_High-temperature superconductivity in hydrides.pdf
Still really cool, but not useful for engineering.
I agree that this paper needs to be replicated before we get excited.
One way you might resolve this is to get everybody talking about it without the boss there. I bet nobody likes the policy. Maybe everyone would agree to not give a reason, or to give the same reason that is an obvious lie?
It’s really a shame Stallman and many of the other free software pioneers are absolutely creeps to women.
Come to beehaw, we don’t have downvotes.
This is such a great story, thanks for posting it!
Fyi most filters aren’t going to do anything to calcium in the water. You’d need a special ion exchange filter.
But the calcium is not a health problem. I grew up with very calcium rich water (a well in suburban New Jersey, USA). We had to buy a new coffee maker every few years because it would just kill them, even if we washed it with vinegar regularly.
In the US, tap water is regulated to higher standards than bottled! In the rare cases where there is a problem with it, everyone gets notified, for example http://www.msdh.state.ms.us/msdhsite/_static/23,0,148.html.
NYC prides itself on having really good water, both for local food production, and just for taste. NYC did this by buying up land around its reservoirs further inland and building a large aqueduct system. The water isn’t even filtered!
That said, some locations have unpalatable water, such as towns near the ocean that get their water from nearby wells.
There’s also nothing stopping Facebook or anybody else from just making their own clone of the software without copyright issues. If it talks the protocol the same way it will work.
We all have a right to defend ourselves, but also an obligation to deescalate. It’s all contextual. Following black and white rules is not the way to operate in a complex world.
Memes like this serve to stoke anti-feminist sentiment among men. I don’t think we should post them, but it’s useful to discuss.
At least in my faang office, there’s essentially zero ports to plug into. If you have a desktop, there’s a port, but that’s the exception. I’ve never seen anyone plug a laptop in.
