That’s solid advice. I think I have my identity wrapped up too much in my career, so when I dislike my job, I feel unsatisfied in life. I will try to see it as means to an end more than who I am.

I tried using VScode to play around with Golang. I had to quit coding to take care of something else. I hit save, and suddenly I have way fewer lines of code. WTF? Why did/would saving delete code? After much digging, it turns out because the all knowing VSCode thought because I had not yet referenced my variables, I never would, and since my code I wanted to save and continue later wouldn’t compile, it must be quelled. Off with its head!

Anyway, I decided to use vim instead. When I did :wq, the file was saved exactly as I had typed it.

I definitely have moments like this too. I have been reflecting more lately and trying to decide if the feeling is temporary or permanent. I have been pondering what else I would do. Are you considering a career change, and if so, what would you do instead? I don’t know if I could transition to something else without going back to school, and it would kill me a bit inside to take out more student loans.

The one asks how to do something. The other gives 13 steps of instructions. The 14th step is “??? I don’t know. This is where I got stuck too in the same way as OP.”

That makes more sense. I thought it was dryg dealer.

If Ted Cruz was a bird.

As a sovereign citizen, and not a citizen of the United States, I am curious which constitutional freedom he is defending.

They give the example of “job” vs “occupation” but then talk about the headlines "Meghan and Harry are talking to Oprah. Here’s why they shouldn’t say too much” vs. “Are Meghan and Harry spilling royal tea to Oprah? Don’t bet on it.”

This doesn’t seem to fit the simple words narrative they just set up. To me, this is standard language vs. slang. The first one sounds like it may be objective and fact-based, and the second sounds like it was written by a gabby middle schooler.

I would likely not be interested in the content either way, but I would be far more likely to click on the drivel-free headline.

Fun fact: Salina Turda does not mean salt turd.

All of them near my old place removed all of their seats and tables. I stopped going entirely. I went for the atmosphere, and their coffee was nice to enjoy in that location. I don’t like Starbucks coffee enough to go seek it out and take it somewhere else.

The problem is that we already value our land as much as Russia does, so we resist them taking it.

Oh, let’s also send them bored ape NFTs!

20% is the going rate, or 10% if you work at a buffet.

All of the best creatures are on the block chain.

Suggesting with a bit of superglue, this device could be put out of service.

You can buy multiple small tubes of superglue for a dollar at the dollar store.

In US. politics, red refers to places with a (usually large) majority of Republican voters.

For a long time, I wanted to get a PS5 or “the new xbox”, whatever the heck it was named. I was in a big box store and saw what I thought was one of the new ones when they were still hard to find. But, I had no cell signal in the store, so I couldn’t look up info on it. I couldn’t verify if it was the new one, or the old one, since their stupid naming scheme was so arbitrary and hard to remember if you weren’t already in their ecosystem. I didn’t buy it, and later found the one I saw was the newest one. I ended up eventually finding and buying a PS5. I doubt I am the only one, but even if so, they did not make a sale to one person because of their stupid naming scheme. With Playstation system naming, there is no confusion.
