Monday doesn't bother me. I like what I do, if I didn't, I'd be looking for something else.

Everywhere you go will have it's share of shit to deal with, because people.

Early in my career a boss said "If I have 3 people working for me, I have 9 problems to deal with".

Society is the challenge with work, which is why big companies focus on team building. Us technical types tend to be rather oblivious to it (or downright adversarial), so his leadership made a big impact for me. I'm grateful to that.

I honestly have no idea what point OP is trying to make.

Hahaha, they're just now noticing? Rich.

And how will Bkuesky be any different? It won't.

This belongs in I had a stroke.

Wtf does that tile even mean

Some people like to suffer.

I'll go a long way to reduce my data exposure, but ffs, Windows and Office are the standard worldwide, for a reason. It's just naive and foolish to fight this battle while you have enough pressure and time limits as it is.

And I run multiple Linux-based systems in my home lab, but my laptop is windows, because "ain't nobody got time for that", as Sweet Brown would say.

Microsoft published that script to Github.

Calling it piracy to use their openly published script is... I don't know, incorrect?

Or have incessant meetings with Senior management or Business Unit leadership to keep them in the loop or even constrain their unrealistic expectations.

Then parents need to stop using such things as babysitters.

And parents also need to get up in arms about lazy "educators" using tech to make their job easier (instead of making learning more effective, which is the bullshit argument that's always used).

And "banning children", wait, I mean forcing every adult to verify who they say they are online accomplishes what?

Oh, that's right, a massive tracking database for any bad actor to use.

If your children get into shit, it's your fault for not raising them right. I got into some shit as a kid, and had friends that got into more/less shit.

I watched those fuckups raise their kids, and they learned from their own childhood experience and chose to guide their children how to use the internet properly. To understand how it works, the risks, etc.

You can't bubble wrap the world. The idiots (myself included) will always find a way around such safetyism, and in the process you'll be harming everyone else.

Yep.

This question doesn't address what else these engineers do besides write code.

Who knows how many meetings they're involved in to constrain the crazy from senior management?

Capacity like that is the only reason I could think of.

Why 3.5" drive? (Just curious).

I've found prices aren't necessarily any better at that size.
