This is really great advice and something I’ve experienced as well.

However, one caveat is that startups work a lot differently. You can promote a lot faster since you’re usually doing multiple jobs at once and learning a lot of new skills at the same time. They usually don’t care too much about specific work experience either. Can you think on your own, build a team or be apart of one, and can you an execute quickly?

And as always no one cares about specific degrees (especially in management), the more general you talk about it the better. People actually understand what area you were interested in, you stuck with something most people don’t do and for a degree (and, don’t really care in what).

Also, over communication is better than no/poor communication. That’s helped me probably the best to promote than anything. Well, that and doing things no one wants to do, especially when on a new team. Gains brownie points almost instantly.

Debian isn’t just stable, it’s rock solid. It’s an ideal server distro.

I haven’t met anyone that got high consistently (even tobacco) this didn’t apply to. You nailed it.

I’ve tried a lot but never clicked with one until today. I settled on a Debian 13 / Windows 11 dual boot. Followed a great guide on YouTube and started moving files over using a USB drive. I’ve traditionally loved macOS’ UI so Gnome was for me. It’s different but I do like it; I do not like Plasma. And GOD does Debian scream! Windows really is a PIG.

It’s not. It’s that the apps that use it have bad UIs and/or don’t support CarPlay. I haven’t found an alternative yet that was usable day to day.

I wish it were good enough to be a viable alternative but it really isn’t.

This one is cute.

Confidence and a good sense of humor.

I haven’t listened to them but they do get reviewed well almost everywhere. They have more bass by default than I like and they dip a bit in the treble which I also don’t prefer (I like slightly bright and otherwise balanced sound).

I mean it’s not easy to spot if you aren’t paying attention. His maker made robots for food processing. His torso was sitting on a desk but his leg was lying in front of himself and it’s not quite clear. That’s the only shot that alludes to him not being real. Tim Burton has a wild imagination.

And they’re quite a bit off for electronics. Rtings is WAY better.

Americas Test Kitchen also recommends the Cuisinart 14 cup food processor.

Gotta confirm. It’s built like a tank and bloody heavy. Wife has had one for over 15 years and it still works as well as it did when she first got it. It may as well be commercial grade. It may be expensive but you won’t ever have to buy another.

Thought he was a robot …

Uh, no. It’s because the US doesn’t physically have these types of rare earths but China does.

Not weird. My father was in defense before he retired (clearances and all that) and I still don’t know what he did and likely never will. I have a vague guess about it but don’t really know what projects he worked on or even the part of the industry he was involved in. No one in the family does.

Great title for it.

I’m still only seeing 2.3.1.

No, it’s not. This isn’t anti jokes are funny now. People are really this bored I guess.

That’s because it’s lame. It’s not you.

Technically 1/4” jacks were first. 1/8” only to make 1/4” smaller.
