Re:People Who Apply for Jobs by Showing Up on Sunday July 24, 2022 @03:44PM (#32216937)
My hiring manager told me the other 2 candidates the interviewed (both of which allegedly had college degrees) didn’t even make it to the fizz buzz stage. They got stuck trying to calculate the rolling sum of an array.

The amount of confidence needed to drive people around at high speeds is much higher than the amount required to join a zoom meeting.

If you don’t hire degenerates, then your employees won’t do degenerate things ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It also makes more logical sense.

I don't think changing the language is necessary, but if we're adding regex to English. COUNT ME IN!

That's a pretty common misconception, but the correct pronunciation of Latinx is (lah-tinks).

It was supposed to rhyme with "thinks" from its inception.

I went to CU-Boulder and a part of the Latinx community, trust me, this is a quite hurtful anglo-ization of our tribe.

All of these meaningless labels were given to us by the so-called "elites" to keep us distracted... that same distraction is what allows of the continued manufacturing of consent.

The difference is that the Framework laptop is repairable.

Having worked at a computer repair shop, I can say this will be, by a very large margin, the most repairable laptop in the market. Most defects experienced by laptop users (especially the non-Apple gang) will render the PC a total loss.
