SoBoredAtWork, to asklemmy in What is the device you want, but that does not exist?

Yes! I came here to post, “a modern phone that fits in my hand”

SoBoredAtWork, to asklemmy in Career advice for someone trying to move away from web / software development.

Yeah, I get you. It’s a crap situation to be in.

I love front end because I enjoy UI/UX and I generally prefer to work in large, complex applications. If I can have both, I’m good, and I’ve been fortunate enough to be working on large, interesting projects.

BUT, no matter what, I go in cycles of loving it and trying to learn as much as possible, then sometimes I stop giving a shit and spend my free time on the couch instead of learning or doing side projects.

I don’t really know the point of this comment. I guess that, for me, at least, interest waxes and wanes. I just try to accept it and do whatever feels good at the moment. I don’t really have any good advice, but how you find someone you enjoy (at least some of the time).

Salesforce e-commerce is horrendous.

Your interesting fields… AI, ML, Data Science, etc, seem amazing on paper and in the movies, but a) it takes an incredible amount of dedication to master and b) in the real world, it’s monotonous, repetitive and frustrating work.

Cybersecurity sounds like the matrix or the movie Hackers, but in real life is incredibly complex, technical, not “exciting” by any means.

The entire industry sounds incredible. But it’s a lot of work, takes a lot of dedication, and is more boring than you’d think.

All of the above also has a very steep learning curve. That doesn’t help.

I’d say get into front end web, but you said you don’t have any interest. Have you tried React or similar front end web stuff? I’d say it has a less steep learning curve and it’s rewarding seeing the UI you build in real time. Maybe try it out?

I think the issue is that the entire industry is kind of over hyped and Hollywood-izd. It sounds cooler than it is. And it’s very complex. Try to get into something that sounds interesting and hope you enjoy it.

Do you really think she just sat there and willingly watched her vagina boil?

Also, she was wearing jeans, so you’re just making shit up.

And have you seen pictures? They’re horrendous. I’ll assume you have already, since you’re an expert on this incident, but in case you haven’t, here you go (very NSFW)…

SoBoredAtWork, to privacy in How many browser extensions would be considered the "safest" ?

“I use 4 extensions … ublock, etc, etc”

SoBoredAtWork, to asklemmy in How is Lemmy so good and you guys all so awesome? FUCK!

I don’t understand the “it’s complicated” thing. Figuring out which instance to use was slightly confusing (I went with lemmy.world because it seemed to be the most popular at the time), but after that, it’s no more complicated than Reddit or any other social media site. Am I missing anything?

Genuinely asking… why is Lemmy terrible software?

SoBoredAtWork, to worldnews in Thousands feared dead in Libya after dam collapses

Aren’t we the richest nation in the world™?

SoBoredAtWork, to programmer_humor in Which side are you? Javascript or Typescript

I’ve never worked with it and don’t know in detail, but it lets you compile several languages into web based client/server code (basically, converting other languages into website code). Works with C, C++, C#, Go, Rust, Swift, etc)

WASM?

SoBoredAtWork, to technology in ‘Modern cars are a privacy nightmare,’ the worst Mozilla’s seen

Unless your car is older than 2010, there’s almost a 100% chance your car has a data connection and is collecting data. I’m not sure what you think you’re the exception to the rule.

SoBoredAtWork, to technology in A.I.’s un-learning problem: Researchers say it’s virtually impossible to make an A.I. model ‘forget’ the things it learns from private user data

You don’t work in AI, do you?

SoBoredAtWork, to programming in What are your programming hot takes?

So… “thing I don’t understand is overrated”?

SoBoredAtWork, to privacyguides in Reflectacles to escape Facial Recognition
