My brother referred me to a summer internship. After that, 1 or 2 years later I joined a "students work" company who placed me at a web development agency, and I worked there part time during my studies for more than a year. Tried to do some of my own projects after that for 2 years, continuing my studies (I was a bad student, it took a long time for me to fail out of university).

Moved to the UK and submitted a lot of CVs, did the take home test, and one hired me as a web developer. This is what I'd consider my first real job. It was a nice job with nice people.

I use it with an intel macbook, it works just fine, as you'd expect. I encounter no issues.

I just got my first iPhone, without a charger. Now I have a MacBook as well, which has my only charger having USB-C out (and the ports on the machine). I find it pretty funny that I have to use an older Apple device with only USB-C ports to charge a newer Apple Device with a port I only have one cable for and have no charger to plug that cable except the MacBook. By Apple's thinking only has these ports because that's the future but somehow they missed to put these on the iPhone.

For anyone who is suffering from this, or on some days finds it hard to sleep I recommend Science and Futurism With Isaac Arthur podcast.

It has "Narration Only" versions of all episodes and it is very interesting, so if you can't sleep you can listen to it but it will not have harsh noises.

Also Philosophize This has the same properties (very old episodes have some loud music).

Let me know if you know similar podcasts.

I tried Mumble but it was lacking in something, maybe the push to talk did not work properly or the echo cancellation was not working? I can't really remember now.

Teamspeak is still the best when it comes to chatting when gaming, it is usable with voice activation, push to talk and it has so good echo cancellation that it works when both of us are on speakers.

Though the current version uses almost a full core on my machine, it's still worth it in my opinion and you can find many free servers you can connect to.

I am making a self hosted or maybe hosted website where you can just import youtube/your videos and you get a link to a podcast feed. None of the existing ones worked for me and I like to listen podcasts before sleeping, and there are a lot of channels which don't need the video part.

It's not public yet, but let me know your thoughts about the idea.

He publishes it in a podcast format as well without the background music, which I am very thankful for.

Actually, I am happy they are sending these. I hope it is really working and they will delete my data as there was not one I approved again.

Job recruiter sites were asking me if I allow sending more emails and as it is practically impossible to unsubscribe from them I will be glad if GDPR makes them stop.

It's possible that your site's IP was used previously for some other sites and it was indexed as http://IP/... now google will retry to fetch the urls for a time.

Maybe you have someone's domain resolving to your IP. Seems to me that nginx is resolving the IP to the default site in the config.

That's why I had a custom script which always set the counter to zero for HipChat. The numbers are very annoying. We had a Lunch room where people discussed what to get for lunch, and it had a counter near it's name. Also reseted the tab counter.

It's literally 5 minutes of googling, it was the 5th result for her name. Not sure why is this so big of a problem?
