A lot of them looked good, except that cartoon filter
My work now demands me to know Springbot.
I was looking for some courses on Udemy and Youtube, and I noticed Java and Springbot tutorials had more women presenting than guys. I just thought this curious having some imbalance toward a specific category. I remember back in my engineering classes we also were heavily masculine population. But even in an imbalanced population, toward specializations that imbalance became worse. My mechanical engineering had a single digit in terms of women while civil and production engineering had more balanced proportions. Awe, they changed the thumbnail.

Good morning you who are a frigging nasty smelly sus loser.
Always remember, while there is still the Earth, you will always have another chance to fail again. Asura.Eiryl said: » Awe, they changed the thumbnail. (Work sucks. 20% or less "enjoy" their job.

YouTube Video Placeholder Feels like in this world every niche is trying to live inside their bubble, living their own illusions of needs, demands, standards, trying to impose their ways to the other bubble while being impenetrable to any outside position. Leading to the gap mentioned in the video: its fake you will go from graduation to success without real life struggles, while also you wont get your business going expecting everyone you hire will be harvard master degreee quality for burger flipping salary. Sucks it seems it will need the bubble to burst and every niche crumble before they realize they are simply wrong in the end. Personally i like my job (its interesting and dont have high pressures), i earn decently for a new emplyee status i have currently.
It only pains me that compared to the world, I earn 5~6 times lower only because some shitty logic defines my coin is worth less than 1/6 of other richer countries coins. I honestly had a desire to move to europe seeking master degree the next few years, potentially moving on for good to there, but atm while i still want to achieve higher educational degree, i really feel that working here has less nonsense than in other places. Maybe because i work for a kinda-ish government company. That kinda creates a bubble from the wild market. Funny though in my company we outsouce a dev team, and complains are frequent about them not delivering what they expect. While i can see problem in the capacity from both sides (the company employees being simply bad at leading/managing a project and outsource employees being bad at engaging their current work) it makes me wonder: is this the level of work the employees are demanding to be paid more (from the perspective of outsouce)? And its for that much you want delivered with such random quality workers, potentially paying little (from the perspective of company)? Yeah, my dream is to have enough to simply cover my yearly expenses for my life, and live freelancing only shits that are inline with my hobbies Jesus Christ, Linus spittin truths.

YouTube Video Placeholder Ive found a good series of videos on YT teaching exactly the way I want to learn Spring Boot.
Only two problems though. Its an ongoing series so important topics werent covered yet. The second one is that the guy turned a couple of the videos as members only. It was one of the most pinpoint teaching of a technology Ive seen in a while, Im really considering doing membership just to get those videos, but I dont know how membership works. Is it a one time fee to join? Or is it a subscription type service where I will be monthly charged? Can I leave it when Im done? Pantafernando said: » Is it a one time fee to join? Or is it a subscription type service where I will be monthly charged? Can I leave it when Im done? Contact the guy in charge, ask him. Here in the USA it is not uncommon for people to buy something, realize its a monthly subscription and find there is no way to cancel the subscription so they cancel their card. Edit: Such things should be covered under terms and conditions. Most anywhere "I didn't read the fine print" is a legitimate gotcha. Also beware of pre checked boxes. Offline

But low GDP country actually has huge advantage in the labour market compare with high GDP country though. There IS a reason why Trump keeps playing tariff card to balance the unfairness. Why hire American workers when you can hire someone else doing the same thing with 1/5 of price. It is low GDP region workers that are making money and taking American jobs. Pantafernando said: » I honestly had a desire to move to europe seeking master degree I don't think "richer country" are necessarily more rich in terms of actual purchasing power and quality of life though. Because they are also paying more living cost and tax. For example, UK's GDP per capita is at $52423, but PPP(purchasing power parity) per capita is only $62574. On the other hand, Saudi Arabia's GDP per capita is $28364, but PPP per capita is $70333. South Korea GDP per capita: $36132, PPP: $62960. tl;Dr: both Saudi Arabia and South Korea are richer than the UK with higher purchasing power despite their coins worth way less. The value of money in a region doesn't necessarily make them poor. It depends on the cost of living and tax, and how much they can buy with their money. If you want to increase income, the best way is to remotely work for NA/Europe clients or employer AND live in a low GDP region. Physically locate to high GDP region isn't always the best idea imo. Finally got fed up with my sinus infection, and pretty sure it's bacterial so I went to the clinic.
Shortest exam of my life, got my antibiotic a couple days ago now. 5th dose taken this morning, and I think I'm on the road to recovery. Looked up the cephalosporin that's in it, and it turns out it's a med similar to penicillin that was discovered in a Sardinian sewage run-off in 1945. Ready for market by 1964. Wild. It turns your poop red, and it says in the instructions, "DO NOT BE ALARMED THIS IS NORMAL." (I think it's cause it binds with the iron in your blood to some degree) Made me wonder what Chanti took for sinus infections before then. Chanti's pushing her mid-late 70s right? So born in the late 40s early 50s? She's like my Dad's age. His alcoholism hasn't gotten any better, and he's not cleaning up properly after his new puppy, even when guests come to visit. You gotta walk around poop whenever you go there. My brother was nearly driven to seek a hotel when visiting him for Turkey Day. Staying had Dad blaming my brother's dogs for the mess, even before he'd gotten them out of the car. I don't know how to reach my Pop anymore. On 8th consecutive day of work. Tomorrow will be #9 and then I finally get a day off. It is beyond me how I managed 9 days on, 2 off in The Navy for Prototype training. Maybe I've gone soft in my 30s. Wife is mad at me for some reason. I don't know why. I brought her frozen lemonade and fried chicken for dinner last night, and rubbed her feet and back while we watched a movie she wanted to watch. I guess I committed the cardinal sin of not reading her mind. She asked me what I was gonna do for the rest of the evening after I walked my dogs, and I said, "Bathe, game, put the dogs to bed, maybe game some more, and go to bed. Do you want to do something?" She didn't respond and spent the rest of the evening locked in the computer room with her cats watching Beverly Hillbillies and Tiktok. I know she's mad cause when I kissed her goodnight she made the kiss as light and brief as possible, which is essentially her tell. Somehow I think she's the only woman who can get an unprompted foot and back massage with no expectation of sexy times, and then be mad about it. Why is nothing in life ever easy? Life is supposed to be the challenge and the afterlife the reward for said challenge.
If you believe in that. Otherwise, life is so challenging because humans make everything difficult out of stupidity and that's all it really is. We can't work together and solve problems because that'd mean there's no profiting off said problems. And miserable is the default condition, you have to actively make it better and that like, takes effort. Asura.Vyre said: » Why is nothing in life ever easy? Life is an early alpha build of the game and it accidently made it into production, the difficulty slider was bugged no matter where you put it the result is random. In addition to that there is no auto-difficulty scaling when you keep getting stomped on in the end game, that menu toggle also does not work so you can't enable it. They keep saying they will patch it but some people have manage to exploit the system as it is and rely on these bugs to allow for their degenerate game play style. anyway that is why life is never easy... well that or anything worth doing isn't easy, but that all depends on if your glass is half full or half empty. The glass is always completely full. What it's full of, is usually the problem.
(The glass is never in a vacuum) It gets filled with ***(poison) and you have to dump it out, but it's extremely heavy. Offline

Once you do, the response is very likely to be "Aww, nah you go do whatever you want for a bit, I'm going to go watch some shows". Asura.Vyre said: » rubbed her feet My paws also deserve some love!

Neat. Bro found an indestructible glass that is casually mocking him from his shelf now.

The only thing worse is when you get called out because you did the right thing but for the wrong reason. |
