  • I turned down a job.

    It was 2003. I had been working as a programmer in legacy language on an ancient AS/400 system for a year and a half. I had interviewed with another company, working in VB6 which wasn't great but at least it had some growth. But the pay was only slightly above what I was already making, and I wasn't keen on VB6 when the web was taking off. I thought I could do better. Fast forward to the bust of 2004, and I'm being laid off from that legacy programming job.

    I spend a year applying to every development job I can find, but it's difficult with a glut of programmers all looking for work. I finally take a tech support job just to get by as I continue looking for a dev job. Little did I know that dev job would never come. I bounced from a few different jobs after that, most being some form of tech support and usually ending in layoffs. I spent 16 years trying to get another dev job before I finally gave up and left IT work altogether. I had to eventually face the fact that my development career died in 2004, all because I turned down a job.

  • They also thought we wouldn't understand how Switch could be a woman in the matrix but a man in the real world. So they just made the character a butch woman because apparently that's easier somehow. So many little changes like this were made.

  • I saw it just fine. Nothing will change in the next 3 months. I look forward to being completely 100% right yet again.

    Jump

  • So it's been a week. Cloudflare isn't in the news anymore. No one on this site is talking about the incident anymore. Brittany Pietsch has done nothing but complain and "hit back" at the comments 4 days ago. And the stock price has gone up.

    I don't expect you to acknowledge any of this, but knowing that I was completely 100% right is reward enough.

  • I cannot confirm or deny whether your father was a serial killer, all I can say is that he probably just didn't want to look like a nerd or Elton John.

  • That wasn't on purpose, that's literally all that was available on the 80s. When I picked my first set, there were only 3 options...those, the black framed nerd glasses with the white band in the middle at a time when Revenge Of The Nerds was a recent movie, or the giant rose colored plastic framed women's glasses. I didn't want to looked like a serial killer, but it was better than the alternatives.

  • Then behave erratic as fuck when shopping online - pay for bibles, butt plugs, taxidermy, and PETA donations.

    ...in the same transaction. It all needs to be bought and then shipped together. Not only to fuck with the algorithm, but also to fuck with the delivery guy. Because we usually know what you ordered. Especially when it's in the soft bag packaging. Might as well make everyone outside your personal circle think you're a bit psychologically disturbed, just to be safe.

  • About 60% of the time, I have to shit at the same time as I pee even if I didn't feel anything beforehand. It's like my bladder acts as a dam for my bowels. It's just safer to sit most of the time.

  • They could have just painted all exposed parts in clear coat and kept the raw look while protecting the metal from the elements. But that would probably require an actual car design expert to be a part of the process.

  • Of course spez is cashing out. That was the whole point of returning as CEO after Ellen Pao was sacrificed to cleanse the site and make it investor friendly. He just wants to cash out more than the $6 million he got the first time.

  • "the neighbour hand raised..."

    • What are sites like this for?

    Jump

  • Any time you see what looks like an auto-generated name for a website, or at least a website URL that doesn't actual form a word, it's a scam. Automatically. Every single time, it's a scam. Stay away from that site. Don't click on it, don't hover over it, don't even think about it, because before you know it they have access to your bank account. Just don't risk it...
