Does seem like being funny helps with running for president these days

Everyone in the comments are ignoring the tax advantages of being married. Let’s focus on the real issues, folks.

Actually as someone who does sometimes do interviews: acting like an asshole with a big ego will wreck your chances big time.

One reason is that the coreutils in Linux use a lot of hacky or hard to read tricks to improve performance. OpenBSD explicitly wanted to make their source code more legible. FWIW I prefer the Linux approach.

Who cares what those creeps say? Australia has harsh asylum laws and also the highest rate of approval for more immigration in the world. Labour are finally doing something right here.

Tell them I could do the interview better than them

I’ve got a couple dumb friends/colleagues too but just change the subject when they mention politics

Game dev is predatory because people can and will do it for free. Many “dream jobs” have this issue.

Why would these doctors and engineers commit a random act of violence?

It was like 5 years ago but I heard a family friend working there was making 27k as a mid level dev.

It’s a business: They want to avoid controversy and this musician is controversial.

Sucks, because he is probably right or at least not wrong in his views, but this is the society we’ve all built together.

I work in gambling and have done for over 3 years. I do it for the paycheck.

Maybe they are just a company… Idk how people even developed a parasocial relationship with it

Me too but my wife gets upset when I call it that

In 1989, A Japanese Professor who teaches in the University of Tokyo named, Rantaro Futanari, found a loophole in the Japanese Economy. Prof. Futanari found a way to legally counterfeit money without any repercussions. Prof. Futanari still does this and is a well known billionaire. Want to found out how he does it? Just search for, “Futanari Inflation” in Google Images.

more of a pedant

Admittedly it is a pretty funny nickname but personally I find it amusing because he’s so non-threatening

Pretty safe to say he’s over-hated. Even like colleagues of mine whom I suspect do not follow politics closely refer to him as things like “Kier Stalin”.

Maybe I’m old fashioned but a PM is essentially an admin role – why do we expect that they be inspirational too.

This seems like a problem that will self-correct. The way Schrier has phrased the headline makes it sound like the industry is a monolith with a comitee leading it.

There are genuine integration issues in the UK so the anti-migrant bloc do have some valid concerns. However, there will be a non-insignificant amount of racists among them.

Weirdly, the “skipping the queue” rhetoric even works with fellow migrants. I have a friend from Iran who I used to work with that moved to the UK ~3 years ago; he’s way angrier about irregular channel crossings than the average Scottish person I know. I’d imagine spending a lot of money and years on a waiting list before being given a work visa was a grating experience though.
