Thats not really a bad thing unless I’m missing something. My experience is that companies would rather never promote existing employees which has lead to people having to job hop to get ahead.
My older family members are so confused and judgemental about me working for 4+ companies in my 7 year career but I’d still be paid as if I was “entry level” if I stuck around at them

Were the tickets specifically for the American games? I’m reading the article and can’t see anywhere it states the country
Get off all social media you can
This means Lemmy and the greater Fediverse too. It’s nice being part of a network of people that share similar views on things but damn this place can be depressing. Kind of just a byproduct from the state of the world but humans weren’t designed to be aware of every horrible thing happening on this planet
They implicitly trusted the AI with no guardrails.
So, Meta released a vulnerability (an incredibly stupid one) and someone took advantage of it to gain access to an account they weren’t authorised to access… which is the definition of hacking
I don’t really see how it’s NPM at fault here. This was caused by a malicious actor taking control of an account and putting out bad packages on it. It could happen on any package repository for any language
I don’t go on reddit often but I do check my old subscribed subreddits occasionally and if they killed old reddit I’d be gone. I don’t interact or see ads though so I guess they wouldn’t care about losing me
Fuck the USA and fuck billionaire tech bros
I’m Canadian and own a car but I was finally able to move to an urban part of my city around 5 years ago and it’s been so great.
Like, my car broke nearly two months ago and I haven’t had the money to fix it, but it hasn’t been a problem at all. I own a bike and an escooter so I’ve just been walking and using those. If it wasn’t for visiting family who live in places only accessible by car I’d get rid of mine entirely
I understand that point of view but I sorta see it more as mourning what was once a good* site that I spent over a decade being a part of. Like using a similar analogy, it’s like keeping up with that ex that you loved very much but broke off from after they got addicted to fentanyl and started pawning your things or something.
*good as in not a money and data hungry corporation, the userbase has always been a bit shit but it wasn’t this kind of of aggressive shit
I do loosely use stars to gauge how popular a library/framework is before investing a lot of time in it, however, I do also use other metrics like PR count, issues, etc
I have no interest but it’d be hilarious if we (Canada) and Mexico can turn a profit on the thing while the US is passed over like the fly-over nation it so wants to be
It’s not even remotely possible for them to declare independence without going to war with the rest of the country. Alberta holds a large amount of indigenous land that was negotiated for with the crown and First Nations leaders have been very clear on being staunchly against Alberta “independence”.
This whole thing reeks of being an American/Russian effort to destabilize Canada with the aid of the MAGA-wannabe Albertan premier

Copious amounts of what the kids call rizz
I have no sources to back this up but I’d say it’s a myth but with a tiny bit of misunderstood truth to it. When I got my lenses for astigmatism, it took a while to get used to them and not feel disoriented and I feel like its because my eyes had been so used to trying to work with the defect that it confused them when suddenly it was corrected.
It took a month or so for my eyes to stop trying to correct the astigmatism on their own, but now if I switch back to my old lenses, the astigmatism is way worse because my eyes/brain aren’t applying their own corrections to it so it’s as if my eyes did get worse. So it’s sorta true but not really
Oh damn yeah that’s pretty similar to me except my optometrists were always really nice. I started wearing glasses a decade ago when my vision was still perfectly good enough to get by without glasses but I wore them anyway just since I liked things being even just a bit clearer.
You should maybe find a different optometrist and get checked for astigmatism because you can get astigmatism corrective glasses for night driving even if you have otherwise perfect vision
My wife is like this with nearly perfect accuracy
I didn’t realise the bottom image wasn’t what everyone experienced at night until I got corrective lenses last year
The article does actually say yes (as well as shrinkflating products)
