I hate you. Upvoted.

Literally the first name that popped into my head when I saw the question. There are plenty of other good choices, but she has to be near the top of any list.

Incidentally... am I having federation issues? This is the only comment I see mentioning Ripley. I see 11 comments currently...

I suppose it's as solid as "lots of people are saying it."

I think job postings are better in indeed, but tbh >75% I've gotten in pretty much my whole 25+ year career has been through a recruiter. Dice.com used to be big for tech jobs back in the day but I'm not sure any more.

As a SSE, mostly I have recruiters hitting me up through linked in. This is also a really bad time. I've been back to work for about a month after 5 months of not finding anything. That's the worst drought I've had in almost 15 years. Usually it's < 1 month.

Be seriously prepared about cloud. It's so anyone fucking wants right now. I'm a damn good Java/js developer, but I'm still learning the tech stack and I haven't touched a line of code yet in this job. Everything has been configuration and pipelines. I feel more like devops than developer.

I don't think they are all fine. My feed is almost empty. I'll go hours without a new post. Not just new stuff, but old stuff, too. I've got a single post in Star Wars ever. Zero gonewild posts in days. Even politics and news (on various instances) are barely seeing any posts. But they see a few.

I guess I'm sticking it out for now, but Lemmy has become an absolute ghost town for me with nothing to do and no one to talk to.

Me and some old guildies have kept in touch off and on over the years. Every once in a while I'd buy a wow expansion and do a couple of dungeons. We were really looking forward to making Diablo 4 our new hang out.

We played like hell all through the beta. Then like twice in live. Then we all kinda decided it sucked. I think my good friend's daughter is graduating soon. Or possibly already did. I can't remember how much older than my own kids she was. I can remember when she was born.

He's still like a brother to me, but we've got fuck all in common any more and we can't keep talking about glory days that were damn near 20 years ago.

Is this why my subscribed feed is basically empty now? I go 8 hours without a new post. And a lot of the posts I do see have only a single upvote when I'd expect dozens.

There's only been a single Star Wars post ever.

If this is being worked on, that's cool. But I haven't seen any mention.

I gave them a couple of quarters and they played a couple games of Galaga.

When the AI bubble pops that will probably be what happens regardless.

Will second pouch recommendation. It's a small but significant difference.

Go for it. React wasn't anything anyone gave a shit about until it was. It'll eventually die, too, like every other front end framework. Maybe this'll be the concept that replaces it. Who knows?
