- Comment on Salary negotiations are going well 🙃 6 days ago:
It’s not about getting a raise, it’s about asking for it.
Anecdotally, my biggest raises were also switching jobs, but that’s not the point i (or the meme) was making.

I don’t think my raises are relevant, the point is that nobody lost their mind. Did they lose their mind in your performance reviews?

I loled. Good job.

I am now, but 20 years ago I wasn’t and I still had my yearly performance review and talked to my boss about raises.

Who loses their mind? Aren’t salary discussions commonplace every year?

That makes the comment slightly less weird, to be honest. Still weird, don’t get me wrong, but less so.

My guess: they bought/implemented an ChatGPT subscription or AI agentic system for the party members, and they have a super weird way of announcing it… maybe to make it understandable to very non-technical people?

It’s almost like weather is variable…

As someone who visited new York in summer, I cannot confirm.
- Comment on Does it get windy in New York City? 1 week ago:
Yes, for politics.
Why is Chicago called the Windy City?
The nickname originally had less to do with weather and more to do with politics. In the late 1800s, rival newspapers—especially in New York—mocked Chicago politicians for being “full of hot air” as the city lobbied to host the World’s Fair. Earlier references also tied the phrase to both windy weather off Lake Michigan and “windy” public speakers. Over time, the nickname stuck and became part of Chicago’s identity. - Comment on AWS crash causes $2,000 Smart Beds to overheat and get stuck upright 2 weeks ago:
You also have wifi with tasmota or esphome. Some products come with optional cloud features turned off by default (and no automatic updates), like Shelly. You can also flash them, but the factory firmware is so unobtrusive that I don’t bother.

I guess it depends on the store. I can’t remember last time I needed assistance. I use them at Edeka, rewe, Rossmann and ikea.

For major groceries I go with the family, so one can scan while the other bags, plus the kids enjoy scanning items as well…
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Ikea does this, you just need the app, no physical scanner. Super convenient.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Humans can be paid without slowing down my grocery shopping. Just pay them to stay home and let me efficiently pay for my food and go.

It is unprofessional to raise your voice in the workplace. His incompetence doesn’t justify your attitude.

Honestly it’s been easily 20 years since I burned a CD or DVD, my knowledge is stuck at pirated Nero 6 for windows XP level.
