I heard lead leads in weight.

Both. How do you know it was red when you have not red it? Someone must have red it to state it’s red.

“Read” is spelled s-a-m-e? English is a weird language.

Present: read

Past: red (in the fediverse), redd (on the old site)

Obvious.

For me, if a water fountain exist, it had always worked, especially indoors. Why would someone waste space for a broken water fountain?

No. That’s the point. LibreOffice does not send your data to Microsoft.

LibreOffice is what Microsoft Office WAS without the bugs. If Word and Excel worked for you before the cloud, Libre is golden.

Thanks. That’s a better explanation than just mentioning that there is character with this name in some musical or movie.

Ok. I’m stupid. Who wants to explain the joke?

How many millilitres are in a gallon?

b) is a recent(*) change. GitHub was independent when it became big

a) GitHub was never open-source, but by combing git and great UI/UX, it was a good choice.

Git is open-source and the distributed nature of git reduces the vendor-lock-in. You need to understand where we came from (svn or git to some ssh server). Coming from self-hosted git, embracing github did not take away your power over your own source code; you still had a copy of all branches on multiple machines. The world is different now, where github has become a single-point of failure.

(*) Update: Okay, maybe 2018 was not recently, but my point stands. GitHub existed long before the Microsoft purchase.

A gold bar gifted to an institution would still count as corruption in most sane jurisdictions. Sure those loopholes exist, but we tend to disguise them as investments or charity.

Wait for the price tag on the upcoming golden monitor stand.

You can absolutely fry tomatoes, half, sliced, or whole, without fat. And tomatoes have enough water not to stick or burn. (You may want to watch and adjust the temperature)

You may argue that’s booling or steaming, not grilling, but the outcome will be fine.

This is only acceptable when Rutte somehow knows that Trump is cracy and this keeps him at bay until arrested.

Fuck. Can we impeach Rutte?

Gates could probably walk into most offices and get a free coffee and an impromptu meeting with the CEO if he wants to.

Imagine applying to work on the youtube team because you enjoy watching videos and then you are expected to make it worse for everyone including yourself.

In the West, this is called a coworking space and people work on their ‘startup’.

Look, in the end, headhunters whether they freelancer or work for an agency, only work for their own wallets. They usually get paid when there’s a match, i.e. when a role gets filled or (same thing) when the candidate gets hired. To make this happen, headhunters work for both sides. Yes, usually the hiring company pays, but in a competitive market, the candidate dictates the deal.

You can totally approach a recruiter to find you a role for that suits you. if you present valuable skills and, they’ll work their network for you. Usually, you can even get this service while the other side pays the fee. You just have to find a recruiter who has both the time to work with you and a network of relevant hiring mangers.

Sure, those recruiters that message you on linked in may not be interested beyond that one role they are hired to fill; but good recruiters are excited to know about talent that’s on the market.
