Madison on why she quit
  • This seems like a weird interpretation, at least based on the paraphrasing above. There's no implicit anti union sentiment, it's just acknowledging he has an obligation to be a good steward for his employees?

  • What law or rule exists because of you? What happened?
  • No nested SQL queries allowed.

    Edit: it was for a built in query language to populate dashboards (think Jira JQL meets Domo).

    I had some inefficient SQL queries that meant we had to put some guardrails around user input so others didn't take down prod like I did

  • Linux for Microsoft Surface devices. It is reality!
  • I've had nothing but issues with Microsoft hardware... Even excluding Xbox stuff, my SP4 had major issues with video corruption and hard freezes. Multiple RMA attempts came back defective or damaged, even the first party folio keyboard went bad. These were widespread defects and once warranty was up I was sol.

    The only thing that somewhat extended its life before it went full spicy pillow was putting Linux Mint on it with some kernel patches.

    Thank God this community exists, but I'll never buy another surface product as long as I live.

  • What's the point of buying new phones every years?
  • Absolutely this. I'm cheap AF and continued to do this, but Samsung has stopped these incentives so now I'm "stuck" on my s21 ultra.

    I use quotes because it's an awesome phone and 2 years later it's still crushing everything I throw at it so I have no qualms with hanging onto it.

  • With the recent hack, there is now irrefutable proof of malicious actors trying to break Lemmy and steal user accounts. Please be careful about entering your password into random Lemmy apps!
  • The difference is that when you buy a vps you aren't handing over all your access creds to random developers.

    And "harming lemmy" may be an intent that sparks a DDoS but there are other intentions that should make users wary. Harvesting creds of people who reuse passwords across accounts is an easy example that could have more serious implications to the individual user.

  • [feature request] settings per account
  • I'm also a former sync user.

    Great app but Connect is closing the gap quickly and I'm amazed at how much one dev can pump out, especially being so responsive to the user base 😍

  • [feature request] settings per account

    I know this is probably a large lift but it'd be great to have different themes, views, etc configured at the account level.

    Themes would let me immediately see which account I'm posting as. Some accounts on different instances are more for discussion, others for consuming media, so different layouts are better.

    How to argue reasonably
  • This pyramid is mostly bad argumentative techniques, i.e. arguing in bad faith.

    It does very little to explain the structure of good faith arguments, lumping them in together at the top...

  • What are some good hobbies/interests for someone in their mid thirties to pick up?
  • I got a tiny FX processor (boss pocket mini) and it can hook up to any set of speakers or headphones. The ability to move from rock to blues to metal to funk has made practice even more fun.

    Plus it's opened up the world of playing along to YouTube tracks, which has been an absolute blast!

  • What are some good hobbies/interests for someone in their mid thirties to pick up?
  • Just do it!

    I did a ton of research and got a cheap bit quality monoprice starter electric guitar.

    There's definitely a ton of snobbery, same with any hobby. YouTube is a fantastic way to dip your toe in the water and you can always start lessons if you're enjoying it!

  • What are some good hobbies/interests for someone in their mid thirties to pick up?
  • Play an instrument.

    I had zero musical talent, I'm not coordinated, and I don't even listen to music much to be honest. Yet one day I decided to try playing guitar and totally fell in love, it's like a new part of my brain came online.

    I'll never be playing Wembley stadium or whatever but just practicing is so rewarding. It's not about getting good, it's about getting better.

  • feature request: Settings per account

    Is there any way that we could treat accounts as separate profiles so to speak? I think with Lemmy, a lot of us may have multiple accounts on different instances. That is sort of necessitated because of federation. It would be good if those different accounts, which may be intended to consume different types of content, could have different preferences for styles and layouts and such
