It's fun if you don't overdo it, as long as it's not an obsession and as long as it doesn't interfere with your life. Like all things, moderation is key.

I'm not sure of many countries where the average person can take years off of work in a row and be fine financially. Do you know of any countries like this?

I'm guessing they were well off if they were able to not work for years.

Except they have access to everyone's salaries so they have greater bargaining power than we do. Not exactly the same as the average employee at a company.

-I got paid more on unemployment than when working.

How did that one happen? That's the unbelievable part to me - unemployment is basically capped to a percentage (usually 50%) of what you were making when working and vacation pay and partial pay (paychecks from part time work) etc any other non-gift pay also deduct or delay from how much you end up getting paid, at least where I live.

Well, that makes the tech debt at my company look like nothing lol

I mean, we even support ES8 and newer! Most of the older code is getting rewritten, slowly... lol

This is also what I'd like to know, and I think the answer is no. I want to have NFS not wait indefinitely to reconnect, but when I reconnect and try going to the NFS share, have it auto-reconnect.

edit: This seemed to work for me, without waiting indefinitely, and with automatic reconnecting, as a command (since I don't think bg is an fstab option, only a mount command option): sudo mount -o soft,timeo=10,bg serveripaddress:/server/path /client/path/

Linux users are often very passionate about the software they put on their computers, so they tend to argue about it. I think the customization and choices scares off a lot of beginners, I think the main reason is lack of compatibility with Windows software out of the box. People generally want to use software they are used to.

I hate it but it's how these things go. You only had a 3 week internship at school because that's what your school does at the end of your semester as a requirement for graduating? That's fine, on your resume that becomes "Spring 2024", people don't need to know it was only 3 weeks, they can think it was 3 months unless they explicitly ask you how long it was which they usually don't. It helped me land my first dev job years ago, it sucks but it works.

Yep, I consider it a failure of the build/dev pipeline.

I had a "Save As" issue in Firefox snap where it just wouldn't be able to save pages, but since upgrading to either Ubuntu 20.04 or 22.04 (can't remember which version fixed it), that problem has gone away entirely.

It wouldn't surprise me if that were the case, US doesn't seem to be very consumer-friendly.
