How much does this gig pay?

Cherish that shit, try to remember something of those stories in case you ever want to pass those on.

Can you explain more why you think Ford’s 40hr week is bad?

I thought it represented a pretty marked improvement compared to typical job requirements at the time?

Ford is no hero. A documented anti-semite with lots of other bad takes, but I am not clear on why you would pick his working hours as the thing to highlight.

He venue shopped this to TX to get the judge he wanted. We are gonn have to deal with this bullshit until it can be appealed out of one of our national judicial shitholes.

Yep, and to the person justifying the IT department’s invasion of privacy: they’ve been lying to us for years, there are breaches ALL THE TIME. Workers will give up every right in the face of corporate excuses? 🤷‍♂️

Can uh … can y’all help a lazy man out with a link to this community?

As a cishet white male who dislikes Voyager, I would absolutely have enjoyed a clueless straight Tom Paris trying to set gay Harry up.

Instead he turned into a fish and kidnapped Janeway to, and I will be very gracious to the writing staff here, have consensual offspring with her.

Why did I tell myself I needed to watch that show? Worst trek. 😢

Edit: Also, good on Kate Mulgrew for being way more Star Trek than most by advocating for inclusion. I do like Janeway.

We have an almost total lack of real discipline and responsibility in software engineering.

“Good enough” is the current gold standard, so you get what we have.

If we were more serious there wouldn’t be 100 various different languages to choose from, just a handful based on the requirements and those would become truly time worn, tested and reliable.

Instead, we have no apprenticeships, no unions, very little institutional knowledge older than a few years. We are pretending at being an actual discipline.
