I wonder where the author lives. I am in the US. I picked an airbnb listing at random from the home page:
https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/52569310?adults=1&category_tag=...
> $230 night
> $230 x 5 nights $1,148
> Cleaning fee $390
> Service fee $217
> Total before taxes $1,755
The cleaning fee is expressly NOT part of the advertised rate.
Also kind of hilarious the example I landed on has a $390 cleaning fee.
My comment above was about a previous version of the "open in app" bottom sheet from a previous version of the mobile website.
Both mobile safari on iOS.
Perhaps there’s a bug in Bumble’s API or app that is preventing the successful captcha from advancing you through the flow
I think it’s a bit too uncharitable to assume malice here. After all, what’s the incentive for bumble to actively keep a bunch of users who aren’t “legit”? Obviously that degrades the user experience and I assume lead to lower revenue.
But also, who made you the arbiter of what a user can put on their profile?
A few 20 year olds who don't understand how to communicate with people older than them just need to spend a few weeks in the workforce and get educated. They aren't "cancelling" an emoji. This isn't a real story.
While my dollar amounts were lower, I have been in a similar situation. I wasn't ready for the leadership role I was in, but they were paying me too well to leave. But this actually led to a lot of my anxiety about it. Once I realized I didn't need the extra money, things became clearer.
0. Talk to a therapist/psych. You may be depressed.
1. Assess your financial situation. How much do you NEED to achieve your goals?
2. Take leave. If the psych diagnoses you with depression, medical leave may be an option. If not, well, you can always just try to take regular unpaid leave at the risk that your job may not be there when you get back (what's your relationship with your employer/boss?). Seriously, take 3 months or more.
3. Start to look for a new job that you think you'll be HAPPY doing. If you're not happy working as a principle or a staff eng now, what makes you think your next job should be that role? You sound like you'd be happier at senior. That's fine! Maybe with more experience as a senior someplace else, you'll find that you're more prepared for the staff/principle level responsibility later on. You think you want to do senior-level work -- so go find someplace you can do senior level work, where you're happy!
Job titles are so different depending on company/industry, it may not look that weird on paper anyway. But you've already proven to yourself and others that you can get promoted and can handle more responsibility (even if at cost to your mental health). You can get there again.
If the logic needs to change more substantially yeah you’re gonna have to ship an app change.
The fact that you write testable (and tested) code, and that your CI needs are met by simple scripts is a good thing. I personally try to ensure that all CI can be done locally, and that basically forces you to just use shell scripts (or make, or similar — but to keep it simple)
They did reduce plastic pollution, as you admit.
Was it the most effective regulation to pass to reduce plastic pollution by the greatest possible amount? Not at all
Weed is openly sold in bodegas and smoke shops in the village too, but none of them are licensed
But those same progressive governments still make it illegal to sell those drugs which can are used in the safe injection sites.
So, this seems consistent to me, even if ridiculous on the surface, because those more dangerous substances are treated the same.
No one’s getting arrested for inhaling no2, just like people are not getting arrested for smoking weed or for shooting up in the safe sites
Edit for clarity: the only thing that’s actually ridiculous about it IMO is that, obviously, there’s a huge proportion of people, under 21, buying whipped cream that aren’t doing it to get high
