Though the network engineer cries out, the parents do not come back to take care of the hatchling. The newborn must climb down the cell tower on its own and immediately begin searching for food, shelter, and a job in the telecommunications industry. The rapid fledging cycle of the network engineer means that only a handful survive into employment.

I always thought this was my ADHD talking, but from some googling... It could be this as well, or instead of. I'm definitely very monotropic and I also recognize the symptoms of Pathological Demand Avoidance in myself.

Unfortunately, at work I manage three different tracks which each have their own roadmaps and deadlines, so constantly shifting attention is required. It's taken a decade of practice to get where I am -- forcing my body and my brain past perceived obstacles and discomfort. It's possible to train your brain out of certain desire paths with enough effort, but it's not easy, and I wouldn't say I'm cured to any measure. I'm just better at managing my symptoms and getting things done than I used to be.

I hate to say "it's a bootstrap thing" but frankly there's no magic cure, only increasingly difficult iterative steps that you achieve through a ton of practice. I do hope my neurodivergent compatriots here have been able to find jobs that work with their unique skills and brain structures, rather than against as I have found myself.

🥸 well you see, you own a digital license to watch the movie so long as we have it available, have you read our terms of agreement--

Agreed that this is scummy marketing, though. The only real way to own media (legally) anymore is through physical copies, and even then maybe there's some provision that makes a DVD illegal due to license shenanigans... but no cop's gonna bust down your door for owning an illegal DVD of Aquaman.

By observing the HTML of the about:preferences#privacy page, we can find that the checkbox "Cookies" has a preference value of network.cookie.cookieBehavior, as does the dropdown next to it, so that's the preference value that is changed.

You can see in the console of about:preferences that if you type in Services.prefs.getIntPref('network.cookie.cookieBehavior') it will return a 1. You can also see this if you have about:config open as you are toggling the preferences dropdown - the value will change there.

Hope that helps!

Self-reply: looks like Clozemaster Pro now has a ChatGPT-enabled "Explain" feature which is extremely helpful and breaks down the sentences. You can do this on your own with ChatGPT of course, copying sentences in and asking (I have done this), but it's nice to have the option embedded in.

Which language are you trying to learn? There are different answers depending on that.

As someone learning Hindi, I've found that Duolingo is wholly insufficient in grammar and vocabulary (the entire course is far too short) and did not concentrate on listening comprehension. I've started using a combination of the following:

• Clozemaster for vocabulary in context of (sometimes pretty wild) sentences. (I've got a lifetime subscription to Clozemaster, it goes on sale during holidays.) Clozemaster has grouped "common words" and a combination of reading/listening skill and multiple choice / vocab word transcription / entire sentence transcription. It feels very overwhelming at first as you're just thrown in but keep at it - start with reading and multiple choice and once you know the words and sentences in your grouped section start typing them out via listening.
• A combination of textbooks and websites to explain certain grammatical concepts.
• A listening-based podcast, example Innovative Language, for listening comprehension. (This also goes on sale regularly.)

It's amazing how something so innocuous can provoke such a viscerally disgusted reaction in me.

Technology was a mistake. It's time to return to the wilderness.

I'm not great at this sort of stuff, but if Sign is meant to be a third party website that other websites authenticate your identity against, given by step 1:

Initial Step: Visit the ‘Sign’ website and input your email to start the process.

Could this also be likened to a less secure OAuth?

The 5 is a little taller than the 2, but it's clear and easy to read so I'll give you a 9.5/10, which should be added to your UNO score sheet under the "Draw Evaluation" section.

As I'm sure you know based on the official UNO rulebook, your Draw Evaluation scores will be averaged at the end of the game and then Average Draw Evaluation (or ADE) will be added to your other overall metrics such as ACH ("Average Cards in Hand") and SAC ("Summed Attack Cards", generally defined as attack cards you have played on others minus attack cards played on you, but some house rules assign different point values to different attack cards).

The metrics you choose to play with in any given game is of course something to be discussed with all players beforehand, but competitive UNO will of course utilize all standard metrics.

Did you know: the "Card Color Multiplier" metric isn't a standard metric? It's basically the Free Parking of UNO - very popular but not officially recognized.

So this is actually an interesting term. Looking it up from Wikipedia...

The term "sideload" was coined in the late 1990s by online storage service i-drive as an alternative means of transferring and storing computer files virtually instead of physically. In 2000, i-drive applied for a trademark on the term. Rather than initiating a traditional file "download" from a website or FTP site to their computer, a user could perform a "sideload" and have the file transferred directly into their personal storage area on the service.

The advent of portable MP3 players in the late 1990s brought sideloading to the masses, even if the term was not widely adopted. Users would download content to their PCs and sideload it to their players.

So as applied to phones it originally meant a particular type of download and install - rather than installing directly to your phone from an app store, you have somehow obtained the file on your PC, transferred the file to your phone, and then installed it. In that context, downloading an APK directly to your phone and installing it would not be sideloading.

However, semantics have shifted somewhat and now it's used generally to refer to any install that isn't directly from an app store of some kind, and requires downloading an actual package file and then installing it.

LaTeX resume templates exist if you wanna get extremely fancy with it. Otherwise, any text editing document that allows some basic level of formatting and headers will do the trick. If I get sent an extremely beautiful and well-formatted resume to read, it's a "good attention to detail" footnote in my mind but ultimately the actual content is much more important.

Since we're on the subject of resumes though, an open message to anyone who might be reading... Don't have an LLM help you write your resume. It's extremely obvious and makes your resume worse because it gets real generic and wordy with it. I've seen them, I've not been impressed by them, it makes me think this person may not actually be able to write coherently on their own.

And remember, a resume is a personal advertisement for you - make it punchy, and keep to bullet points highlighting impressive things you want a recruiter and hiring manager to know. Include buzzwords as pulled directly from the job posting to get through automated screening. Highlight projects you've done and what positive effect they had on the intended audience.

If using Symfony, LiipImagineBundle can handle this.

Python's Pillow library might help here. Within node.js itself it looks like the sharp module could also suit your needs.
