It is mental how the spanish government refuses to point to Morocco as one of the perpetrators of this attack. There are videos showing how their army helps the invaders reach the border.

Dangerous for their business model I guess.

I am an owner of a Glove 80 and I cannot overstate how benefitial it was for me. It improved my typing speed and overall comfort. Also, it forced me to type correctly, using all my fingers and place them in the correct keys.

To this day I think this is one of the best pieces of hardware that I bought.

Locating: One direct referal from a former colleage, and another one from LinkedIn (I applied to it)

Interviewing: I just treat the interviewer as partner rather than a rival that is stopping me from getting the job or something. Being honest and know what you are talking about is key.

Surviving: Didnt really need to, all the companies I worked in were good enough.

I went down to the path of split, tented, columnar keyboards and bought myself a Glove 80.

Despite expensive, I think the purchase was definitely worth it. I use it every day for 6-8 hours (I have a very keyboard centric workflow) and I have not a single regret.

I assume that the universe is almost infinite, so I belive that almost every creature that I can think of has existed, does exist or will exist somewhere.

I tried those 3, and decided to go for bottles. The configuration needed in order to run Windows programms were really really easy, and I like the fact that I can keep all the Windows programs neatly organized in a single place, not only games (as Lutris and Heroic are intended to).

I also tried just wine, but Bottles is a handy wrapper.

After something like 15 years, I'm building again my pc from scratch. I'm learning a ton about those new technologies and how all the pieces fits together. It's a lot of fun.

Most likely you will have to write a lot to communicate effectively what otherwise would be some quick in person chat. Also, is more complicated to be aware of what is going on in general. Non verbal communication is basically non existent and is really important to know the temperature of a meeting, for example.

Also, having a space dedicated solely for work and without distractions goes a long way.

Set a PB on 5K, learned some Nim and gamed a lot. Outer Wilds and The Witcher 3 mostly. Also, I did my first ring muscle up in months.

All my jobs has been pretty average, but I know which one is the best: the one I'm currently on.

Small sized company, with a very horizontal hierarchy, effectively acting as a worker cooperative. We have really good WLB, the payment is not bad, the job is interesting and the colleges are smart.

Everyone here feels a sense of purpose in the company and push to be better, because it directly affects our payment. For that reason our priorities are mostly align with the company's which makes everything run smoothly.

Disagree with Cobol being USA-centric language.

In Europe, fintech has a lot of legacy systems in COBOL, with no plans of getting rid of them anytime soon.
