Why don’t you fucking code one up then you entitled twat

“lol”, said the Scorpion, “lmao”

Ah nice good to know.

Isn’t it much softer too? Ie, it’ll be all scratched to hell by day to day wear?

I speak for most of the world here when I say, yes.

I was on desktop not app, where Spotify will let you search its catalogue without login.

Where do I like… buy… music?

Looking at tidal, there doesn’t appear to be a way to search for music? Am I losing it?

Edit: you have to login first. Honestly, bad first impression already.

They said, racistly with no evidence.

A lot of them would have you imprisoned if they had your way. It’s become painfully obvious to me, especially with everything happening with the yank christofascists, that there are a lot of religious wackos out there kept in check by secularism. They’d had you under the boot heel in a second if they could.

I never understood the base level of acceptance theism has when they keep doing evil things, every time they get power. Religion isn’t your friend.

Yeah this worries me a lot at the minute. There’s a concerted effort to push christianity back in front of the levers of power and it disgusts me. I mean, have you ever tried to read the bible? It’s complete nonsense (nonce-sense?).

It took me literally 3 seconds to find this https://youtu.be/S4ydSSwu1Ws

Not sure, I’m nearly 40. Felt this way since I was old enough to have an opinion. But I hear that sentiment a lot, as religious people think being a cultist is a default position… its not. Kids are just indoctrinated.

HTRIP

I don’t like Rogan much, but i listened to him pretty regularly long before he moved to Spotify, when he was slightly less of a grifting bullshiter…

He absolutely does not just agree with his guests. He regularly used to tear into them over bullshit they spouted. Now is he still as principled after all this time? I wouldn’t be surprised to find out no he isn’t. But he USED to challenge guests pretty often at least.

I’ve always said both Christianity and Islam are my enemy. Both science denying, sexist, power hungry institutions with a penchant for fucking kids. The only difference, in the West, is that Christianity was made to bend the knee a long time ago. I think Islam still needs that lesson.

Regardless, fuck them both. Sky daddy worshipping death cults.

Brilliant. It’s so valuable to have a manager that actually treats you like a professional in these situations. Sounds like a diamond in the rough alright.

Some agency when working goes a long way to fostering a really good working relationship. I’m still a lot earlier in my career, so generally in my first non-internship role I was expecting to be given little bits of work like change this button, widen this form, that kind of stuff.

Turns out I’d joined one of those “sink or swim” smaller companies where you have to wear a lot of hats. Initially I thought quite negatively about it but once I started to gain some confidence I realised he was giving me the time and space to properly learn stuff and develop it until it was “good”. He, thankfully, still shoots down my sillier ideas but if I have a good one he throws his full support behind me.

Currently he was like, I need you to investigate how to set up automated fraud prevention checks and flag, let’s say things, for clients to investigate further, and he sent me off for a week to analyse the problem, speak to everyone involved and gather a list of data points and how to calculate them. Then he gave me the time to design the system, including the mental room to develop our first shared lib after .net framework.

Really I’m rambling a bit, but my point is, you can get a lot of good work out of people if you invest in them and allow them some agency. Maybe some can’t work well without constant pressure, but I think a lot of people thrive when supported and enabled correctly by management.

Techno-solutionist lol. The power of labels eh?

I see the vague shape of what you were going for, and had you executed it, I’m sure I would have snorted lightly in mirth.

Funny how agile seems to mean different things to different people.
