This is a lot of fun. I work for a small university that has a software development course and a cyber security course. Every once in a while we pair some of the brighter students so the cs guys and girls can try to hack the sd projects. They always succeed, but it's always a very fun lesson for both parties.

Is this one of those "red flags" people keep talking about?

Having a job is fine. Having something that gives you purpose is actually healthy for you. But I guess it depends what you do and you need to work for someone nice. It is the mandatory part and the "squeezing every penny out of you" part that sucks most.

Also, switching jobs when it gets tedious might be a good plan. Make sure to stick around for a couple years though, or else they'll see on your CV that you won't stick around long enough to be worth the effort.

My handpalm and my forehead just had an intimate moment.

Yes, I have a new phone and the autocorrect is the worst. I'm trying my best to tame it, but it just sucks

I've also got a story of other people saying "it'll be fine" while I should have been thinking for myself.

I used to be a garbage truck driver. I was sent to pick up a bin at some fishing club. It was at the end of a dead end road. I drove my truck to the end hoping there would be enough room to turn the truck around. Of course there wasn't. That's when I should've just decided to back out, but I didn't. I asked the members of that club if the garbage truck usually turns around or backs out. They said "sure you can turn it on the grass, they do that all the time".

So I started turning, one small moment later, I was stuck in the grass. My back wheels just kept slipping and digging in deeper. I putting gravel and wooden boards under the wheels, but nothing really worked. In the end we got like 6 of the fingers to push the truck (10.000+kg) out of the grass.... and they fucking did it! It took a little back and forth, but we managed to get the truck out with teamwork.

It was a pretty stupid decision of mine, but I learned from it. It was 10 years ago, but I still remember it well,because it was just and awesome experience of teamwork and humanity.

The tweet speaks of "dark money". I like that term better. It feels worse

That is part of the reference. The other part is this infamous manga https://www.cbr.com/enigma-of-amigara-fault-junji-ito-most-psychological-story/

There's an image in the post url (which blurs on my feed) and there's also an image in the post body (which does not blur on my feed)

Ik kreeg zojuist dit "burgerinitiatief" onder mijn neus. Ik wil het met liefde steunen, maar ze vragen om mijn naam, adres en email.

In deze tijden van privacy bewustwording en greenwashing, merk ik dat ik daar toch moeite mee heb. Ik beeld me in dat een datazuchtig bedrijf een campagne als deze kan inzetten om informatie te verzamelen van mensen die met passie, en misschien zelfs een beetje existentiele paniek, alle kansen willen aangrijpen om (passief) aan de verbetering van het klimaat bij te dragen. Om vervolgens die data door te verkopen of voor andere commerciele doeleinden te gebruiken. Ben ik paranoide of is het juist verstandig dat ik mijn adres gegevens niet zomaar online in wil vullen? En hoe zit dat met deze specifieke partij, is dit een betrouwbare partij?

I recieved this email today. I don't use twitch, only made an account once for some specific purpose. I don't know these people and I'm a 100% certain they don't know me. This is just toxic marketing to lure me back in.

I teach a course in java and springboot for beginners. I would like to walk my students through the code of a real world java or springboot application. Can anyone recommend a good example?

In this letter, Dijkstra talks about readability and maintainability in a time where those topics were rarely talked about (1968). This letter was one of the main causes why modern programmers don't have to trouble themselves with goto statements. Older languages like Java and C# still have a (discouraged) goto statement, because they (mindlessly) copied it from C, which (mindlessly) copied it from Assembly, but more modern languages like Swift and Kotlin don't even have a goto statement anymore.
