Carried a 12,000 BTU air conditioner 8 blocks from the store with my gf on our second day in North America after arriving from Europe. (I still have it, along with 2 more)
Honestly I consider arduously carrying a window air conditioning unit up to a 3rd floor apartment to be a quintessential young person in the city experience
my newest reason to dislike AI is that it’s making my beloved em dash seem suspicious
YouTube Shorts is pure slop. Literal “we have TikTok at home” vibes.
Ok have you thought about where you’re going to get food
You can thank population centers for subsidizing the cost of rural sprawl. Without the revenue from the blue states you hate so much, rural America would collapse… more so than it already has.
Etymology of Włochy and Olaszország names for Italy are the same. 🇵🇱“Włochy” and 🇭🇺 “Olasz” both come from a Proto-Germanic loan word *walhaz, meaning “foreigner”. This is also the root for the names “Wales”, “Cornwall”, “Walloon”, and “Vlatch/Wallachia”. Funny to think that…

The representative story about what happens when you outsource software engineering to India is QuarkXPress. In the 1990s and early 2000s, they completely owned the print publishing industry. 95% market share. Nobody used Aldus Pagemaker. Nobody used Adobe InDesign. Let me tell…
The fundamental problem at the root of this plague of incompetent H1Bs in big tech is that good engineers in general do not want to become managers, and so management ends up filled with incompetent people who can’t recognize engineering talent. They just see dollars and cents.
When I was a young developer, my boss doubled my salary to make me a manager of the outsourced team. So the entire team’s productivity went to nearly zero. 3 months later having not finished anything, I told my boss, “just let me code it myself.” I was done that week. We all…

If you're wondering how on Earth can 2 pilots mistakenly turn off both fuel switch less than a minute after taking off. Just keep in mind that the pilots are Indians. The only reason why you see indians and their government vehemently denying the possibilities of pilot error,…
