I was a dark theme user my whole life till I joined the workforce.

Everyone uses macbooks in my office, and their screens are reflective as hell. So when in dark mode, it's like you're looking at a fucking mirror with all those lights behind you staring at your soul. Also it's really annoying to focus since many lines would be covered up with the light reflections. That's why many of us prefer using light mode in the office.

Some good people take the initiative and turn off a few lights for the comfort and use dark mode. But as soon as the sun goes down, someone else will turn on the lights and it's all for nothing.

Some monsters would also switch to the secondary trash monitors just to use dark mode with their neck on the line since they come with anti reflective coating.

C# can be used for cross platform Android and iOS apps. Look for Xamarin and Maui. But it will ultimately run under Java and Obj C. Google and Apple are not gonna ditch their platform for Microsoft.

Just noticed that app store removed devrant, and here I am writing this shit on ios. Guess they couldn't remove devrant from already installed devices.

Yup already using 2 separate drives for them. That's the only secret sauce for a successful dual boot.

I know what you're talking about. I used that one too. It acts like a portable software. But you won't find other relevant ones this easy. For example, RabbitMQ requires you to install erlang and other dependencies and vice versa. Also you need to download each version of redis specific to your project if that's a thing. In that sense Docker rules them all.

Let me guess, a Japanese company? Or a large corporate?

Even if it's not, in most legacy projects, you won't be able to include any modern technologies. That's a given. Cause the leads and managements behind are there for more than a decade and are unwilling to learn anything new. They will do anything to stop you to protect their jobs. So no matter what you say, it's an impossible feat.

I recently bailed out of such a job. It's good money but bad for the competitive future which is ever evolving.

@Lensflare I say both. For example, in a third world country 60-70 usd is crazy high price to pay for a game that may or may not be worth the value.

Everything around arch based breaks once a year. Used to tweak the f**k out them. But now I say f**k you to arch, and stick to vanilla pop-os. Life has never been more stable.

Every Japanese corporate out there

And here I bought air conditioner since it's unbearably hot and humid here. Damn you had it hard.

Go for the Bank job. Don't stick to any company for more than two years. If your current employer is having layoffs, it's highly likely you're never getting that raise or promotion in recent times.

I faced the same situation, after massive layoffs, asked my company for a raise, since the workload increased exponentially. Waited three months with no advancement, and tomorrow I'm joining a new company. Granted it's another tech company, but they are paying me more than what I had asked my current employer for.

Work with various forms of sand built objects.

Add a hard "D" on every "T" and you're set.

Most of the functionalities of the libraries you need are either built into JDK17 or the Spring Boot 3 framework itself. You don't need shits like Apache Commons or anything else for the simple tasks like you used to. But I agree, the documentation is shit and figuring out alternatives are painfully time consuming.

Universal answer to all questions in tech industry - "It Depends"

Maybe you're one of them...

Played one 20 years ago. It was a flash game

@aviophile we get it, you are a apple fanboy. Now please answer me, why tf do you need both bluetooth and wifi on when using Airdrop?

It sounds oddly familiar to iOS. Android just copying iOS's crappy ideas.

Well, boomers tech has the most stable job in the industry... Enterprise software will never be built upon your hot new JS framework.

Look, from personal experience, each mail has to contain lies regarding how interested you are in their already existing products. Else you are rejected upfront if they aren't that desperate for someone.

Definitely hemorrhoids. Doesn't matter how much you think it's fine, it's not gonna go away. You're just having placebo effect by saying all that shit. Go find a surgeon and do the damn surgery. I had one as well when I went full work from home and was sitting all day long. Lesson learnt, never sit still for too long.

You just explained my previous team lead. He used brag this and that and was quite good at fending off clients dumb and unnecessary requirements and was quite good at defending us from any trouble. We only knew he didn't write a single line of productive code after he left the company. We had to fix his shit for months after he left. Fake it till you make it, gotta admit he was quite good at it.
