Exactly, a tremendous amount of gang recruitment takes place in prison. Often there is a survival mechanic associated with this.

Locations and territory are well known by law enforcement, and it's one reason certain hoods have drastically increased police presence.

This perfectly describes a scenario I found myself in several years back, down to a tee.

The article doesn't mention this at all but there seems to be an abundance of "content creators" on dating sites targeting men. They will chat with you for a day or so and then try to sell you their "product."

It's anecdotal but this happened to me several times. You also hit a bunch of profiles that are clearly promoting similar services.

I'm sure it's not great for women either, but dating apps in modern times are pretty awful for men.

You just described every single sit-down interview between a reporter and a politician.

I read this article twice, and I'm still not sure why it exists. It seems like a lot of flowery and vague language to basically say nothing other than "we should think about things differently because it's 2024 and old ideas are bad."

It is an incredibly awkward feeling watching colleague after colleague just disappear from Slack all day. People start talking and getting stressed, waiting for a mysterious calendar invite.

Oh, I tried.

>Like, little software shops

My first dev job was at one of these. They didn't even use version control.

When you are searching Indeed, you can check the "Fair Chance" option where the employer has indicated a willingness to work with this kind of stuff.

This is not something I'm experienced in though. Best of luck.

I've heard this happens on the 30th of every month.

I've been following this train wreck for a while, as it was pretty clear where this was headed.

There was a supposedly leaked internal screenshot surfacing purporting that roughly 50% of the game's sales had been refunded. Hopefully Steam does the right thing and removes this product from the store immediately and refunds ALL customers.

For those out-of-the-loop this situation goes far behind over-promising and under-delivering. This "game" was largely just an Unreal Engine asset flip that appears to be hastily cobbled together with duct tape and fiddlesticks by amateurs, and didn't even deliver the same genre it advertised for years.

I picked up an ESP32 devboard recently. I've always been intrigued by embedded but don't have a background in it at all.

I have no idea what my first project should be. Any ideas?

Meme languages are getting out of hand.

Looks like the repo is private.

You really can't compare game dev with web dev. These are truly distinct tech cultures that share surprisingly little.

You may be subject to litigation. Not worth the risk.

I've never actually encountered the issue of YT blocking ad-blockers. Currently running Chromium 119 on Pop OS. I don't subscribe to premium or anything like that.

Oh interesting, I was looking into this recently but the license perturbed me a bit. I ended up going with PayloadCMS, which is a YC-backed project.

If you're trying online dating in the U.S. it is not uncommon to see people, primarily women, saying that your message bubbles must be blue.

It's completely absurd on so many levels of course, but it appears to be some sort of status attribute.

I've been seeing so many people trying to sell "kits" like this for Next.js and similar, it's quite strange as it's always mostly boilerplate code and otherwise freely available NPM packages.

These types of things should be "starter projects" and frankly they should be free on Github for anyone to download and learn with.

I have a hard time seeing any market for these kits outside of lazy junior developers.

Possibly trailer parks.

Terrorism and extremist ideology is the short answer:

Well damn

>> I want to get better at building things.

Well that was my thought as well. I assumed that the latter would take care of the former. But I'm finding that if you aren't working in FAANG or similar this is not really the case.

I now realize I have to take concrete steps to progress my career in terms of positioning and salary.

My repos were coming up as 404s. I was wondering if I had been canned...

Can confirm that it works with shell_exec as well.
