Yes, but that’s not really why they removed him.

Plenty of horrible people ruling countries that America has no interest in removing as it doesn’t suit their needs.

His job was to do Israel’s bidding and remove Saddam.

I honestly don’t get this point of view.

Then we have to assume the government are happy for the real killer to go free. Then what happens when he kills another CEO and says to you got the wrong man.

For fucks sake. Just let people enjoy some jokes and mock rivalry

Thank you.

Yes I am aware and that’s funny is when I was interviewing for my first junior dev role I was so frustrated that none of the larger companies seemed to like me, I really sucked at interviewing and as I have ADHD I either overshare way too much or just blob the interview.

Now speaking to people I trained with who were hired by the likes of Goldman Sachs (they only took degree people) they all hate it. Like they got put on temp contracts and won’t be made permanent. Some women went in from Google and said why you paying these engineers so much get them out of the country to somewhere where labour is cheaper. 😤

Thanks for the info.

We will definitely never be bought out by another company. Both the owners are also software engineers and are not in it for loads of money.

So we don’t actively look for new clients as we find that since we are so fair and work well with our clients we get a lot of repeat business and word of mouth means a lot of people recommend us.

This is part of why they increased our pay and reduced our hours, because they were in a position to be able to do that and they truly put life first then work. So there is literally no chance we would ever start ramping up our need for more clients or trying to sell the business.

As an example we could quote a client £30,000 for an application and write a very thorough specification and timescale. But then a year later we could still be making changes for the client at no extra cost as the boss takes the approach if the requests seems reasonable then we will do it. We make a fortune on hosting applications and servers for all clients anyway that it all evens out in the end.

Honestly it’s really hard for me to articulate what kind of a place it is and how they show everyday that they do care about us all. They don’t really like remote work but I’ve had car issues for over a year and they’re happy for me to do 2 days in office and 2.5 days at home. Now that the car situation is sorted but money is tight for a new one particular with the mileage I would do they just said nah the current situation is working for you and us so let’s just keep doing that.

Hey, if I was in charge I would hire you right now.

Whenever I talk about my job I have to stress so much that I am lucky af. I don’t believe I deserve to be where I am because frankly I was a mess at life until late thirties and made a mountain of poor life choices.

My point in this is to say that change is possible for anybody, given enough determination, a massive dose of luck and being in the right place to actually get my life on track. I am not special and I’m not particularly smart, just like solving problems.

If you’re interested I did a couple of coding boot camps and although I had a lot of experience from just making things for myself I believe anybody can up skill.

It really is that bad though, I used to think I was insane when I worked customer service call centre roles and they’d say (like all places I worked), without laughing, that we should get there 15 minutes before our shift to load all our systems. So basically work 75 mins for free each week. Whilst at the same time they pay as little as legally required and monitor your toilet breaks about 9 mins a day.

So naturally I am against this and push back and they say you gotta do it. And I’m like like fuck I do bro I could leave this job now and get another one tomorrow. In the end I was ready to die on this hill so I go in 15 mins early and at the end of the day I log off 15 mins early to get my coat on. Suffice to say I was no longer required to log in early. Most people did it though.

Now to contrast this I am a software developer who has got lucky at a small company, tiny actually. They really care about the staff and the clients. I’m sick quite a lot more than the average person and I overthink things but I am told that WE come first we don’t live to work we work to live. Recently we all got pay rises and our hours reduced. There is no micro managing, no targets and no pressure. Only the pressure my stupid brain puts on myself.

Thanks!

Me trying to learn them from the comments.

Why what?

Never seen Mt Rushmore? from this angle before and oh man those heads are so gaudy (not sure if the right term). Like the hubris to ruin nature with faces like this.

Pray tell?

I don’t know if it’s effective, it’s too early, the trial hasn’t even begun. What I do know is artists make statements whether I agree with them or not.

It doesn’t exist in this country yet. Don’t forget we’ve had over a decade of Tory cuts and particularly to the NHS, they’ve privatised more and more parts of it so it doesn’t seem to unrealistic that with our special relationship we will end up in a similar place.

Look at dentists. Woefully underfunded and so many dentists move to private practice making finding an NHS dentist an insurmountable task for many people.

His walk really annoys me. Like I know he would knock my ass out but come on dudes a fucking idiot.

Stands to reason that a dude who got good at punching and being punched in the head doesn’t have the most nuanced take.

Also, are all the people Trump supports convicted of sexual crimes.

People supporting something you don’t agree with doesn’t mean they’re doing it for popularity points, just the same as you supporting something that I don’t, wouldn’t have me saying you’re doing it for points.

Shocking but people have beliefs, whether right or wrong.

What? I don’t typically find males attractive and I was supportive of this man’s actions way before I knew what he looked like.

Also, isn’t it a bit too soon to say he hasn’t accomplished anything through his violence. I mean at the very least he’s sparked a massive discourse about how Americans have a fucked up health industry. This is all while the media pretends he doesn’t exist anymore because they realised that sympathy for Brian Thompson was… lacking to say the least.

I am not smart but this is what I get from this meme.

It’s a play on how physics describes acceleration. In physics acceleration isn’t just about speeding up but any change in velocity.

So:

• Gas = Positive acceleration
• brake = negative acceleration
• steering = velocity takes speed and direction, so acceleration.

New battery is much cheaper.

Depends what came first. For me it’s being just naturally not a happy person, the feelings of numbness you get from painkillers is very attractive when you’re depressed. Same for something like Xanax which will just let you sleep your life away.
