Looking forward to raging while I jump rope at 120fps!

You’re probably right on the grand scheme of things. However, I find recruiters are a dime a dozen. When job postings in my area that match my skill set are posted, I get 5-6 recruiters messaging me for the same job. So, at least for me, I wouldn’t worry about burning bridges with a single recruiter.
I’ve been on the hiring end of those conversations before, and frankly I prefer it when a candidate withdraws.
This, so much, this.
I’ve done many interviews on the hiring side. They’re exhausting. If you’re not interested in the job, please don’t interview. No repercussions will be had and any (introverted) ICs that were going to be pulled into the interview will breath a sigh of relief.
I like Mr. Rossmann, but half this video is just him role-playing Naruto.
This was probably written and printed off by an employee as a joke… and it’s really funny.
Not in IT, but in software dev and I have some of the same issues dealing with support calls. I usually start off with “I’m sure you’ve tried some of this, so sorry in advance but can you… <insert super basic troubleshooting shit here>”. Seems to always get them to humor me and try doing things like restarting the computer and/or software.
Hello fellow introvert. I too have struggled with these dynamics in the past.
Im introverted and have always enjoyed my solitude. Some people have complained that I don’t talk much, which is true, I don’t need to talk to feel good.
but jesus christ, others outright avoid even eye contact with me like the plague, even though I kept greeting them for at least 2 more days.
Sounds like you’ve met people similar to you. How would you prefer others handle you? I’m guessing it’s “ditch the small chat, and get to the point”. I’d say, treat these people like that. Focus all your conversations with them purely on the shared work and leave them alone otherwise.
I confess neither do I know how to react when people are friendly when I’m talking to a coworker they like but the moment this coworker leaves, they turn to a mute.
It’s likely that they have an established working relationship with the other person but not you and so they freeze up in a 1:1 scenario. Just continue to engage with them in group settings until you establish rapport.
It’s also a bit funny: 2 coworkers that the first day had small but normal conversations with me now look elsewhere when they see me… and I give them back the same treatment. Childish and petty? extremely, but I ask you: what should I do?
You don’t have to do much. Continue to be friendly with them and if they don’t reciprocate just engage with them on the work alone. If you need something from them, ditch the small talk, explain the problem clearly and explain what you need from them.
I think you’re trying to take a one size fits all approach here. You need to adapt to each individual. For those who want to be friendly and chatty, hit them up and engage with them. Find them to be boring? You pretend to care, ask them a few follow-up questions (people love to talk about their interests) and then glance at your watch and say “ugh, I’m really sorry to interrupt, I’ve got to <attend this meeting>/<finish this report>/<insert whatever it is you have due here>”.
I forgot about that. Good catch.
Youtube comments can be strangely helpful here, sometimes. If there’s a lot of “akshually” comments on every video, it may be a sign the youtuber is full of it. Not always true, but anything helps. Can also look up the youtuber’s credentials as well.
Europa Universalis IV. Have tried several times to play this myself, I quit and watch someone else to get my fix instead.
Starcraft 2. I’ve accepted that I’ll never being good at this game so I’ll watch uthermal do challenges instead.
Factory games. Usually watch play throughs when I get stuck and/or get to a point where my designs can’t scale without a lot of headache.
This makes me wonder… wtf was the balrog’s day to day like all those years? Was he really just hibernating? I mean, the maiar get bored. I can’t imagine being a shadow hellfire demon makes you suddenly never get bored.
I spent nearly 6-7 years developing control systems applications in LabVIEW. While I loved working in LabVIEW, I don’t wish LabVIEW was more popular, but I would love to see a graphical programming language take off. The dataflow paradigm is really interesting to work with.
I actually forked your code so I could customize the keyboard a little bit. I was impressed that I didn’t have any problems building the thing right away. Doesn’t always happen for me with open source projects.
One thing that was driving me nuts was how sensitive the swipe gestures on the spacebar are. I guess my thumbs always do a slight swipe when I’m pressing space and it was moving the cursor position on me. I wiped out all of that code. If you’re taking suggestions, a way to disable swipe gestures on the spacebar would be a cool add. I’ll see if I can get together a PR for it as well and be a part of the solution.
I use this after messagease suddenly decided to charge a subscription fee.
It’s pretty darn close in functionality. Highly recommend taking the time to learn it.
Sounds like chatgpt.
Are they drilling into very different types of rock or is this area (the basin) fairly homogenous?
You mean Emerson now! :P
I’m a CLA who spent 9 years developing LabVIEW applications for control systems. NI always annoyed me with their terrible decision-making and inability to catch up with modern times in the software world. (Their merge tool is so bad, it’s next to impossible to have a multi-developer project)
Yes, both my wife and I’s phones died in the same way. Register touch, but no screen.
I’m with you. My kid has adhd and I read these comics, not for the humor, but to get an idea of what’s going on in his head.
Pretty much anything where I’m not or never will be the target demographic
