not everyone has the money for investment nor the means to survive if they fail the business (which btw is 97% of startups)

hr only exists to impede you from suing the company, nothing they do is for the worker's benefit

@JsonBoa what really annoys me is that i had this same insurance back in 2020 and it was great. they had the best system in the market, the app said how long the wait was in each building, you could make all appointments online on the same place and leave with exams ready.

apparently they were bought since then and it has gone to hell. i understand closing buildings and cutting resources from a business perspective but I don't get why they tossed out the perfect software they already had

@retoor both my phone and my ipad? lol

the state of tech is very different than it was in 2016. my brain is currently rotting due to depression, but i haven't felt interested in anything dev related for a while now. things are looking like shit worldwide and I'm not in a mood to engage with any type of media, social media included

@CoreFusionX that's mimikyu tho

I'm currently making pokemon with the 3d pen

the power dynamics are just completely different. it's like saying an adult yelling at a child is the same as a child yelling at an adult

this is the most word efficient rant I've seen in this site, and you have to say no more

@dotenvironment ah i guess this is a brazil thing, but to become a professor you have to pass a test and you keep your position for life. it is like that for any public servant actually. it is a very cushy job

movember

they kill more than sharks per year, apparently

that saying doesn't work when it involves corporations. if there's money, they're doing it

there was a tweet of someone saying there should be a job where you code for half the day and spend the rest of the day moving boxes

the problem is that cars as the main mode of transportation is an unsustainable model. there is not enough space, traffic will always be shit and you're kinda stuck having to use a car anyway because you don't have a reliable alternative. if people invested in public transportation and walkable spaces it would be much different, but y'know, lobby, politics and stupidity in the way

from my experience working at a bank, they run on prehistoric shit. banks look much better from the outside than they actually are on the inside

idk how it is in different countries, but right now I'm seeing a really huge investment in specialists, and they want people with a diploma

that kinda makes sense, since our brains just put stuff we've seen before together with no rhyme or reason, just like LLMs

@rudinskiz just the bigotry would be enough for a lawsuit, you're a very patient person

a lot of people use canva wtf

blind obedience

that started bad and ended at lawsuit levels

@JsonBoa i can dream

every time i see the game i just feel very nostalgic of high school, never gonna be upset about losing it. as far as my monkey brain goes, you're my childhood friend now

I don't remember who was it that called companies "little autocracies" and my life hasn't been the same since

i don't believe the "happy" part

I've tried chat, but not autocomplete. all the experiences I've had so far with AI were charming, but didn't have good results, so I'm not fully convinced it's useful.

to be fair, the first time it was just cause classes were suspended so not really my fault

@electrineer no, i dropped it 4 times :) we had quadrimesters during the pandemic~

happy for you, I'd just wait until i have proof of it to celebrate
