Crack could help

Python doesn't require luck, finding your way around pip without constantly fucking up your stuff does. Please use development containers.

They're not mentioning this in the offer because people would decline more often, especially if they expect you to be sitting 10 hours everyday.
Depending on which type of offer you got, you should just tell them to stick to their own words. In any case, I'd be looking somewhere else to find a plan b.

@fullstackchris Atom was backed by GitHub, once MS bought them they decided to focus efforts and resources on vscode. Atom-community is still a viable fork but it's going through a long hiatus as well.

@aaronswartz Yes

@kbdevmom I consulted for some more progressive companies in the US and all those experiences were very professional and respectful. It made me happy to see that and have those opportunities.

I'm sure your son will have a very bright future considering how much you're aware and care for his wellbeing. In the meantime I will try to make my part in advocating our spot in the workplace.

@eeee It's really nice to know that some other Dutch companies are more open to diversity. Also, Groenlo looks really nice but mijn Nederlands is niet zo goed. Who knows next year :)

@jeeper too late, man, too late... I had to send pictures of my flappy genitals around to make a point.

@PAKA Yeah, I've also decided to be honest about an anonymous survey they did, but this time around it was a calculated move.

@GyroGearloose I was involved with significant state-level activity and, at many levels, still am. It kinda sucks that my paranoia became such a hassle but it does have a reason to exist.

My foil hat is well grounded, haha.

@hjk101 Yeah, I'm also in the Dutch market and noticed this to be a somewhat common practice. Just never saw it being so blindly applied.

My CTO won't budge to do anything unless it's determined by something or someone external and then takes the credit for the "initiative and energy".

And I don't think I'll ever get to be one of his preferred and beautifully paid consultants. The CTO hates to be challenged at the technical level and that is pretty much all I have to do for my job.

@danzig666 I'm also Central-EU, bnl! I've been thinking about starting my own thing but still have to decide on a strategy to approach the market properly and have something consistent. Until then I will just find somewhere else to work at.

@danzig666 Hey, my specialty is security, mostly on the offensive side but have been working recently on secure designs and building secops teams. My coding in decent but not to a point where I'd consider myself to be a dev.

I'm in the EU and have been applying to some local companies, some interviews are already getting scheduled. I won't allow these idiots to take my vitality away! :)

@djsumdog In my case, I was put on the spot regarding some of my habits with a lot of jokes being made about how I articulate phrases different and stimming. So I figured that it would be better to be honest about it.

The company was holding multiple seminars on D&I, focusing on people with disabilities and how that didn't make a difference in the workplace, so it seemed safe enough.

It is just disappointing to realise how hypocritical their whole spiel on equality really is, it made me feel very uncomfortable.

@piratefox Indeed, an I usually see it like a warplace. For some reason it felt safe for a moment and I let that information go... It was really an effort to be transparent with people because some were making comments about certain habits of mine.

I'm sending out another giant hug, Pirate! I hope you will feel better soon, depression is very serious and the struggle is very familiar to me. All the love!

@sariel I have been thinking about this, just not sure if I wanna go though that hassle. It already feels bad enough as is, so it's hard to go even further.

@tarstrong Some are people he used to work with in his previous company, so it's definitely not a very ethical move.

As an expat in the current country I live in, it's guaranteed you will still work 12-hour shifts in Europe. This will be especially true if.you come over trying to prove your worth through some SMEs/startups.

@matt-jd it's definitely not enough, it's even less than 2021's inflation in the country I live. It's a very shitty situation, but I'm already looking elsewhere.

My company is still trying to enforce that people should be in the office for at least 3 days a week, because the CEO and the rest of management miss the office life. We've been remote for a couple of years now and 2021 we hit the biggest profit ever seen in the company's history.

It really feels out of touch at this point, there's so much efficiency to be had from just allowing people to have a choice that's crazy to see how some organisations are blind to that.
