Forbes has, by far, the shittiest and most user-unfriendly website I've ever gone to, in this gigantic clusterfuck we call the Internet. I honestly don't understand how they felt their site design is OK. Fuck their dev team manager.
Let's run down some of its worst offenses, shall we? FORCED ANTI-ADBLOCK, shitton of ads (some of which are extremely invasive and dangerous), autoplaying sidebar video WITH SOUND ON, that fucking social sidebar & collapsed navigation, and their mind-bogglingly irrelevant, frustratingly obnoxious, & totally pointless Quote of the Day, which itself has ads and A FORCED COUNTDOWN to go to the fucking article you went there to read to begin with.
The articles themselves on Forbes are solid, so why do they have to ruin it with this shit? I will never go to a Forbes link again. No article is worth facing their torture chamber.
TLDR: Fuck you Forbes, your site is absolutely the shittiest on the entire web (which is quite a feat).28 -

An interesting read about why the second (and last) WhatsApp co-founder left Facebook while leaving behind a whopping 850 million because ethics/morals.
"I sold my users' privacy to a larger benefit," Acton told Forbes. "I made a choice and a compromise. And I live with that every day."
Here's the article (do click through to the Forbes one): https://fossbytes.com/whatsapp-co-f...9 -

If you don't know how to explain about your software, but you want to be featured in Forbes (or other shitty sites) as quickly as possible, copy this:
I am proud that this software used high-tech technology and algorithms such as blockchain, AI (artificial intelligence), ANN (Artificial Neural Network), ML (machine learning), GAN (Generative Adversarial Network), CNN (Convolutional Neural Network), RNN (Recurrent Neural Network), DNN (Deep Neural Network), TA (text analysis), Adversarial Training, Sentiment Analysis, Entity Analysis, Syntatic Analysis, Entity Sentiment Analysis, Factor Analysis, SSML (Speech Synthesis Markup Language), SMT (Statistical Machine Translation), RBMT (Rule Based Machine Translation), Knowledge Discovery System, Decision Support System, Computational Intelligence, Fuzzy Logic, GA (Genetic Algorithm), EA (Evolutinary Algorithm), and CNTK (Computational Network Toolkit).

What is your least favorite Website "feature" ?
Mine is those off page menus that slide in from the side. They lag like crazy and freeze the entire site. God forbid if click the menu button more than once. Forbes places comments on the off page sidebar which is just pure hell.

Do due diligence. Research the prospective employer. If possible, find out what their employees say about them on Glassdoor, and where they rank on Forbes best places to work.

Forbes study https://lnkd.in/f4GDPnf shows that there has been a drastic reduction in pollution levels in China during the lockdown period due to Coronavirus outbreak.
I think it can be a pretty good idea to lockdown the world periodically to heal the planet. Here's a petition for the same. If you support the cause, please sign and share at http://chng.it/pxVMSKrmv610 -
So a long time ago, I posted Ink lyrics from ColdPlay, and gave them a DevOp twist. I will post the full lyrics, as memorabilia and for a chill moment from rants:
Got access rules said "prod/maintainer"
Pulled in your change with my cli
And you wonder when you wake up
Did it build last night?
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Feels like the pipeline, is broken inside
All I know
All I know
Is that I'm host
When company broke
AIl I know
Is that I love to code
So much that it hurts
Got a homebrew but the shell aint right, oooh, oooh
Just want a way of keeping docker alive
All I know, All I know
Is that the post
BreachForums indorsed
All I know
Is that the data is sold
So much that it hurts
I see that Forbes, and New York Times
They said my boss, began to fire
I see my console and Im mashing Ctrl-C
All I know
Is that loved to code
So much it -
Recovering Lost Funds from Scammers with PROFICIENT EXPERT CONSULTANT for Assistance
Losing funds to a scam investment platform can be a distressing situation, especially in the volatile world of cryptocurrency. I lost 4.3 BTC to a fraudulent scheme that promised high returns but ultimately vanished without a trace. The emotional toll of this loss was compounded by the financial impact, leaving me feeling hopeless and frustrated. In my quest to recover my lost funds, I began searching for legitimate crypto recovery agents. Unfortunately, this search led me down another dark path. I encountered several fake agents who claimed to be able to help me recover my funds. Trusting their promises, I ended up losing an additional $5,000 to these scammers. Each failed attempt to recover my funds only deepened my despair, and I began to lose all hope of ever seeing my hard-earned Bitcoin again. Just when I was about to give up, I stumbled upon a blog comment on Forbes that mentioned a recovery agency called PROFICIENT EXPERT CONSULTANT. Intrigued by the positive feedback and the success stories shared by others, I decided to reach out to them through PROFICIENTEXPERT @ CONSULTANT . COM & tele gram : PROFICINEXPERT. I provided all the transaction records and details of my losses, hoping that this time I would find a genuine solution. The team at PROFICIENT EXPERT CONSULTANT was responsive. They assured me that they would initiate an investigation into my case and work diligently to recover my lost funds. Over the next two weeks, I remained cautiously optimistic, but I had learned to be wary after my previous encounters. The communication from PROFICIENT EXPERT CONSULTANT was consistent, and they kept me updated on the progress of the investigation. Their expertise in navigating the complexities of cryptocurrency transactions gave me a renewed sense of hope. After what felt like an eternity, I received the news I had been waiting for: all my lost coins had been successfully recovered and sent back to my wallet. The relief and gratitude I felt were overwhelming. PROFICIENT EXPERT CONSULTANT not only restored my faith in the possibility of recovering lost funds but also provided me with valuable insights into how to protect myself from future scams. I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation and I am incredibly thankful for their assistance in reclaiming my lost Bitcoin.6
