“da da da” in Spanish.

Settled on a business degree (their the easiest of anything I was interested in

I specifically avoid hiring students from business majors because they are only into the networking and not doing work lol.

I’ve been saying that the market is oversaturated for YEARS now but this just enrages tech bros into insulting me personally. It’s very strange.

I always tell me CS/CE/Info students that they should focus on non profits, government agencies, etc. where at least employment will be stable.

This person has no sense of security.

Because they love the experience. Trains are really a lot of fun.

How much does a rail car cost, and what is maintenance, inspection, etc like? This is still something of the very wealthy.

For delivery, I don’t know that I have seen it. Perhaps for Uber/Lyft, though.

This is like content matching on YouTube or Twitch. It can be wrong but what are you going to do about it?

They are referring to the fact that the app might show a photo and the person showing up is not the same as in the photo of the driver.

Because someone with the proper papers is signing up but their family member is doing the actual work. It’s basically working the system. People actually get jobs this way too.

Or, perhaps, I take these and am repeating what my doctor says? Why are you being hostile? Yes these save lives but they are not perfect. I experienced such severe abdominal swelling that it caused me a hernia that required surgery. You read that correctly: HIV medication cause me a hernia severe enough to require surgery. Now is there some other part of my life that I should expose to you so that you can judge me across the internet?

It’s important to note that not all cables connect all the wires. You don’t need them all if your cable is only for charging. You need more if your cable transfers data.

The USB consortium has responded to this sort of need over time, but they have to do it in a way that is completely backwards compatible. It might be possible to do this in a new release of the standard, but it may also be that millions of cheap cables would be rendered useless in the process.

But lightning isn’t usb-c.

That depends on the medication in question.

Every year I tell my CS/CE/Info students that the market is saturated and that jobs are hard to find. I then tell them that they have to figure what motivates them: a paycheck or service. I then suggest that public service is generally stable while private enterprise can be volatile. I finish by telling them that they have to decide what among this fits them best.

No, not really. Where I work now is fantastic and we have great leadership. The moment your original visionary leader leaves and someone with an MBA gets in their place, it all goes to shit. This is LITERALLY what happened to Google and to Apple. Both super dynamic companies with great culture who were then gutted to generate shareholder value.

I worked for one of those 20 year startups. It was awful. Basically there was no drive, no vision. The entire place was a lot of faff and only existed to give bonuses to leadership. All of the interesting and motivated employees moved on long ago leaving only the mediocre types who play political games and favorites. I needed A job and took it when offered, but took the next job as soon as I could get out. I watched many others cycle through, some a lot faster than I did (I was waiting for a specific position to open).

This is where I got the hell out of the industry. I now manage IT for a major university and love it. It doesn’t pay as well but it has great benefits, is pandemic-proof, and allows me to work with a lot of excited and motivated students. When I help them get through their studies with confidence, it means the world to me.

I posted a similar comment in another post of this article.

The elite 1% students who spent their lives pursuing this are getting exactly what they asked for. They sold their souls for a big paycheck and assumed that it was everyone else’s careers that were volatile. They’d have done better to work for a non-profit where at least they could say that they are making the world a better place.
