Some people just don’t care. To me it really feels like they are trying to create the problems to later sell the solution, and it’s a never ending cycle. I’ve quit my recent job because 90% of the team just sucks, security risks everywhere, the API just doesn’t respect contracts, there’s no contract actually, we just ask on private chats how to integrate with it really. New features on top of buggy code while support is on fire with the 100th bug ticket reported in just a week. Not to mention that you have a design team, a project manager and a “VP of engineering” but the epics they want you to do are almost just the title of the idea they had at lunch 😅.

This guys are very lucky because the operation teams is able to cash in millions of revenue a year by combining excel, monday and WhatsApp to do their jobs, while a few are still forced to interact with a piece of shit of software that the engineer department provides to them…

Anyway, some people just don’t care.

You’re probably talking about contractors and gross pay. That’s probably why people here are misunderstanding your statement.

I don’t believe the children should pay for they fathers mistakes. I was replying to the OP comment that suggests that we should take into account slavery has something to do with poor conditions some of said descendant of slaves are atm.

I came from a long line of poor people in the sense of money, and only one of my uncles was able to get a degree (from his pocket money and hard work, you have to pay even if it’s a public university), recently a cousin was also able to get a degree as well. And me and my brother pursuit more technical courses.

I can have a decent income by working on projects from abroad but the Portuguese state takes ~70% of that in direct and indirect taxation.

Meanwhile I don’t have a family doctor for 14 years now, and if I need something to be taken care of I need to get help in the private sector. Justice is slow, the streets and public buildings are decaying to a point of rupture, public administration is a complete disgrace in general…

I’m basically a slave to this corrupt politicians. They take my hard work in the form of taxation and provide nothing/almost nothing in return.

I meant directly descendant. And I don’t disagree on your reasoning, it’s true.

Dude, I’m not descendant of slaves and I’m pretty much a slave of the Portuguese state at the moment. If this corrupt cast of politicians wants to pay reparations, I do not oppose to it, but they need to pay it from their own pockets.

Yes, you have to pay an annual membership fee to Apple if you want your apps to stay listed in the App Store.

Would have thought Google would be on top of this though, but probably not?

It’s against play store ToS, but if somehow you can make it look organic enough it might be difficult to proof. In truth I don’t know how this kind of services operate. I do think Google would try to counter this as much as possible yes. And 8M reviews can’t be just from this kind of services, at some point you have real users engagement, you just need the initial visibility boost.

Good luck with your research🖖

Maybe something like this service. Find it a bit dishonest if you ask me, but I don’t think it affects competition that much. People will try multiple apps if they don’t find what they are looking for.

I’m waiting for this day

Doesn’t Kotlin has interoperability with Java? I didn’t used it much yet but I’m about to in a few months. Is it that difficult to just refactor things to Kotlin when you need to change something in the project? I’m asking because I just can’t work with verbose languages and would prefer Kotlin to Java everyday.

Believe it or not it did. So, I’m playing as a goalie, and in my understanding I should not orient my team play and rather watch them play. After I started tell them what to do (you can suggest to where they can pass the ball) my rating stop dropping so fast and I actually gain 0.1 from time to time 😱😱

This means I can keep a score of at least 7.0 often and don’t get substituted.

The game is still flawed tho, it’s very unrealistic that a goalkeeper get substituted in season games, even thought it concedes a lot.

I just want to thank you for your good karma 😊

No worries good Sir. If I’ve found your comment offensive I wouldn’t reply to it.

Thank you for the tip, I’ll try that next time 👍

What game is this?

FC24 (football game yes)

How many times did you buy it?

oh, I think I know what you mean. Apologies English is not my native language. I bought the previous versions. Last time I got this game was fifa19.

And is this a photo of a screen instead of a screenshot?

Yes, I play it on PS4. Not sure how to take a screenshot on that.

A friend of mine named his dog Byte. The dog is very playful, and has the habit of running in the direction of other people he meets.

When the dog does that my friend tries to call him back shouting: “BYTE!! BYTE!!”. People get really scared when this happens 😂

Okay, not so funny if you are the one being approached by the dog.

Don’t allow it to call you cis either, it’s derogatory.

They are expensive for the general public. But the M1 chip is actually very performant.

stremio with addons ahoy

Awesome logo. It reminds me of Vinnie, biker mice from mars.
