the people who pour their heart and soul are the people they want. i’m the kind that they don’t want: software engineers that have been doing IT/operations for so long that we understand & accept “good enough” and don’t give a rat’s ass if they don’t implement something we’ve been working on; so long as we continue to get paid.
they search for people like you in the hopes of avoiding people like me because mind sets like mine are both more common and more difficult to manipulate.
to be clear: they’ll still shit on you like they do to anyone else, but know that you’re the kind of people that they want and, if you can figure out how to leverage that for yourself, you’ll be doing very well.
watch out for your battery.
i don’t do proxmox; but i do a lot of virtualization through kvm/qemu on my own laptop and the battery can take a beating if you don’t mitigate it somehow. i’ve had this laptop less than 6 months and the battery condition is already at 67%.
i’m lucky in that i got this laptop from a linux company so i can can order replacement batteries; but most people don’t (willingly) have this luxury anymore.
it’s shorthand for neoliberalism and here’s a wiki article on it.
tldr:
Historian Elizabeth Shermer argued that the term gained popularity largely among left-leaning academics in the 1970s to “describe and decry a late twentieth-century effort by policymakers, think-tank experts, and industrialists to condemn social-democratic reforms and unapologetically implement free-market policies”
see for yourself, use any instance that doesn’t wholesale de-federate with any other instances. you’ll see that any post that has a pejorative tilt on liberal leaders or causes (especially biden and gaza) will have majority downvotes; resulting in little to no engagement; while similar posts anywhere else on the lemmyverse have active discussions and mixed voting.
lemmy.world is the best example of this.
primarily because both context switching and progress builds upon itself so stopping & switching has more impact than those 5 or 10 minutes suggests. (ie. you can stop a car from rolling down the hill with just one finger if you do it early enough but in reverse).
also standup meetings have a way of getting longer and covering more ground that what was initially planned for. (ie meeting mission creep)
I loved the building, but I find the other half of the gameplay quite boring.
i would spend hours using cheats to create the perfect house for the sims family and then lose interest within 30 minutes of letting the family do its thing.
i would rinse and repeat with each house becoming more elaborate and strange each time; they should make a game that focuses on that aspect of it more
I’ve left jobs before because the description and the interviews made it seem fascinating; but I mastered the stack in a couple weeks and became VERY bored.
Somehow; the less savvy the interviewers are the more interesting the work is and its usually bad more often than good; but when it’s good It’s fantastic and with usually mediocre pay.
Also it’s somehow always a mixed bag when the interviewers are more experienced than I because you would think that it would be great, but it’s never as good as the previous category; decent but not good. But they usually pay the most so that mostly makes up for it.
