I don't believe a single word anyone from Meta says, yes. That company is full of amoral scum, you think lying is beneath them if it helps them out?
comment
Meta should've been nuked when Cambridge Analytica happened; the fact that US lawmakers did nothing after that is a complete joke. Zucc should be in jail alongside every other piece of shit who t…
comment
This is really cool! I like the fact that when you navigate to a method/declaration/whatever, it only contains the relevant snippet, rather than opening a secondary tab with the whole file…
comment
Yeah we should definitely let amoral and psychologically manipulative business practices be handled by the magical market! After all, it's worked so great so far in all the places without a billb…

Well we can be confident in the knowledge that techbros might finally take the issue seriously if an AI tells them to!

Having a dedicated "Email designer" mode where it takes into account all the limitations of email rendering would be amazing. For example, you can't use a flexbox which designers take f…

Basically every single word out of Mr Worldcoin's mouth is a scam of some sort.
comment
> I feel the world is too hostile to big tech Lmao what? If the world were sane and hostile to big tech, we would've nuked them all years ago for all the bullshit they pulled and continue to p…

By virtue of it being Meta, it's automatically bad. If we lived in a sensible world we'd have nuked Meta into a trillion tiny little pieces some time around the Cambridge Analytica bullshit.…

Seeing some of the code my colleagues are shitting out with the help of coding "assistants", I would definitely categorize their contributions as spam, and has had nothing but an awful effec…
comment
First things first: The "article" (if it can be called one) is complete garbage and is nothing more than an advert for UpWork. That being said, the (clickbait) title resonates with me and fr…

I just auto-accept anyone that comes in. I only ever open LinkedIn when I'm switching jobs to update my profile (basically to mirror my CV), but unfortunately the people screening the hires care …

Meanwhile Facebook is flooded with AI-generated slop with hundreds of thousands of other bots interacting with it to boost it to whoever is insane enough to still use that putrid hellhole of a mass-da…
comment
The only reason I work is because I have to. I hate nothing more than the daily bullshit meetings and sprint reviews and all that other useless life-sucking crap. And I have it good, most people don…
comment
The worst I have ever messed up during an interview was building a simple booking system that had to do recurring appointments. I never felt that lost and confused trying to accomplish something in co…

> your comment smacks incredibly of thinking only western white civilizations are capable of overcoming "barbarism" and evolving into a more just society for people over time... I'm …

Nowhere did I do that. Also, it wasn't solely the 6 teens, it was also their parents and their communities at large outraged about what the teacher did and wanting his head on a spike (show a dra…
comment
Freedom of choice? You realize we're talking about a man who got beheaded because of showing drawings of Muhammad to his students, right? (Ignoring the fact that the instigator of the whole eve…
comment
Even relatively harmless things like haram vs non-haram meats can cause a huge struggle, yet alone other more nuanced, complex cultural issues. Also should we really be accepting of cultures that open…
comment
None of my family has been back in decades, we've long since abandoned it. Also, that situation is a lot more likely to occur in the mother country than most people's host countries, if it d…
comment
Frankly, my home country doesn't deserve my brain, nor the brain of anyone else willing and able to leave it. It's a nice sentiment, but you also can't ignore that, if people like mysel…

> Both Dutch natives and EU-migrants are to be paid minimum wage In theory, yes, but I know a decent number of my own countrymen (Serbians) that most definitely aren't legally employed in NL, …
comment
Where does this plantation-owner story come from? How many plantation owners do you think existed? And that still doesn't explain the continual drain happening, to this day, as is evidenced by th…
comment
They're low paying because (often illegal) immigrants from other countries either A) are happy to put up with what is a luxurious salary for back home, but barely liveable locally Or B) don'…

Until corporate decides to install new MDM software on the usually-blazingly-fast apple silicon chips :( I can't even open files larger than 500 lines without my whole system slowing to a crawl b…
comment
My own HR people tell me it happens lol I don't get to see the fat stack of resumes they get, only the stuff HR has already approved and passed on to me to further review. I asked them about thei…
comment
I never know what to reply to those "name a bad thing about you" questions. Being honest seems like a terrible idea, but then what would an acceptable "bad thing" be to lie about? …
comment
The problem is that HR is the first line of entry, and if you're not keyword stuffing every possible technology under the sun, they'll pass you on, because they don't know that being a …

But he's not really wrong, either. In the Netherlands we have a marginal tax rate, so every Euro over X gets taxed 10%, everything over Y gets taxed 15% etc. (simplified numbers obviously). Howev…
