Science Memes@mander.xyz•Shout out to my engineering homies.English
27·1 month agoGods, I’m considering Job hopping and I saw Lockheed was hiring for my role, less experience, less certs, full remote, and quadruple my pay.
I had to block them on indeed and LinkedIn. I hated that I was considering it.

16·1 month agoOne of the guys I went to college with is an amazing programmer and had such a great understanding of C that hes why i got as far into CS as i did, couldn’t get a job after grad because 1) Covid and more importantly 2) he’s insufferable.
He got a job making $100k a year for I wanna say Lockheed because he quote “Wrote good looking code”. That’s all they needed because Tue DoD already told them that the project he was hired for was not going to be adopted, but they were still contracted for minimum 2 more years of development and Lockheed would be in breach of contract if they weren’t making progress even though it was already Dead.
The Military industrial complex is JUST a grift to put tax dollars in private hands.
TL:DR: I like reading books I disagree with both creatively and philosophically but force me to reevaluate my thought.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do some Americans "feel ashamed" for being American even when it's not their fault?
1·1 month agoI don’t have pride in my government or its actions.
It was actively causing a lot of harm for most of its existence and is now turbo charging its ability to enshittify the world.
The LEAST I can do is make it clear we’re not all in support of this shit.
Love the country and people though. Lots of cool forests to roam and lots of people who don’t suck.

Man I can’t get over that part.
But I was bullying people with long pronoun lists if I’m being honest. In 2015 it was Hamilton OCs I was bullying.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump praises Mamdani after White House meeting: "I want him to do a great job"
5·1 month agoExactly what I was thinking.
Trump probably saw he was popular AND I’m sure Mamdani said polite things to the guy, and now were here.
I appreciate Ukraine and EU on one side with NATO backed Ukraine on the other.
Truly a case of who would win.

news@lemmings.world•Indiana homeowner charged in fatal shooting of house cleaner who showed up at the wrong doorEnglish
2·2 months agoEspecially since were all afraid to embody the spirit.
Me included.
My family name is pretty uncommon outside of mexico and when you googled my dads name the top result used to he an obituary of another man with the same name, birthday, same KIDS name, same time served in the army, and same job as a truck driver.
Only difference is he was from southern California.
Also turns out we were kin as my great grand father was addicted to traveling the country and making babies.

politics @lemmy.world•Michelle Obama says the country is ‘not ready for a woman’ president | CNN Politics
12·2 months agoI want to believe we could have a woman president so long as she ran on something other than being a wet noodle that’s trying to be #relatable more than just being a good candidate.
Or better yet, running on something more than
“Are you really gonna let Trump win?”
I’m on year 5 of fully committed to Linux everything (minus work) and I still assume “oh yeah I can probably just sudo force the thing I want. Reading logs takes too long” and yeah it bites me in the ass sometimes.
Its weird to hold Linus (Tech Tips) to such a high standard for no other reason than he makes tech YouTube videos.
I’m a fucking sys admin and I make the same mistakes. Its human. I’m glad he’s at least making Linux seem accessible while also bringing to light the realities of how different the troubleshooting strat is from Windows to Linux.
Bro’s gonna signal the bombers on his location.
He’s gonna lose the fight, but the city block gon’ lose it too!







I thought the point of the pihole was to route all DNS traffic through it on your network?
