  • Apparently it really is the case that anyone who isn't white is somehow unqualified.

    I mean DEI literally exists to remedy the problem of institutional white supremacy (amongst other related issues).

    When someone is against DEI, that leaves the objective conclusion they're either ignorant, and will change their mind when presented with reality, or they're pro-white-supremacy—i.e. a Neo-Nazi fascist, with zero room for leeway.

    The fight for equality is always the same no matter what new labels the fuckos put on their current theft of freedom.

  • Tbh, I was more thinking about the $2600/m guy at the end when I posted that, rather than the comparatively more economical situations.

    Assuming he also needs to pay a not-insignificant amount on insurance, (maybe) road tax and definitely fuel on top of that—surely that can't be economical unless he's driving many hours a day, every day.

  • I know if you're rural it's probably not an option but at those prices, surely you could even get around by taxi for cheaper, if their area is anywhere close to populated.

    It can't be about ownership because I'd be surprised if anyone is actually paying these cards off before trading up

  • Fair play!

    If you need to convert audio or video, ffmpeg is your man

    If you need to convert a document pandoc is what you need

    If you need to convert an image, imagemagick

    If you need to "convert" some online media into local media, yt-dlp

    Can't think of another use case that people would regularly be converting off the top of my head, but happy to fill in any gaps if there are any

  • I wonder if the website did the thing where it lists their big customers like a trophy cabinet on the main landing page.

    It would probably make a good list of places to sell snake oil

    Also love that this is all evidence to back up the premise that building the happy path of an application is generally easy, one of the main skills in software engineering is ensuring the unhappy paths are covered sufficiently. I can say I've started a bank and keep people's money in my wardrobe, I'll be providing the service of holding their money—I'll also probably get robbed sharpish because I'm not skilled in the kind of security needed to avoid that.

  • My understanding is the importer pays the tariff to the border force. The seller is not involved in the transaction.

    Your suggestion would be for an exporter to give Americans a cheaper price than everyone else based on something that happens following the sale.

    Edit: happy to have it explained to me how I'm wrong if I am, I'm not gonna pretend I've got a perfect knowledge of how the American border works

  • About 35-40h generally, I'm a software engineer.

    I enjoy my job, but ultimately the point of me doing my work is to be able to do whatever I want with my free time. Life is for living after all
