Chaotic evil

My last raise was 10k. But that was after 7+ years of no raises (agency work, slow times). When COVID hit, our business picked up for 2 years straight and I finally convinced them it was stable enough to commit. We’re a small company and they’d rather give out bonuses or assistance with personal expenses than commit to an annual salary increase (which I get), but COL has spiked in recent times, so the raise was well past due.

As a Windows user that dabbles in Mac but is definitely not an expert, I get seriously frustrated when I try to share my screen in ??? meeting product only to have to adjust permissions and be told I probably need to restart the app (in the middle of a meeting). I’ve found other minor nags with MacOS along the same lines. They are trivial at best, but can be seriously interrupting. I agree with the high security defaults, but the UX could be improved.

Not to mention refactoring support…

There seems to be a trend of new (old) developers who find that strong typing is nothing more than a nuisance.

History repeating itself in the IT world. I don’t wanna be around to support the systems that inherit these guys.

Que?

They don’t make docs like they used to. For what it’s worth, those “…for Dummies” books were never going to make anyone an expert on anything, but every one of them I’ve ever read was the most densely packed set of comprehensible information on the subject available at the time.

The only non-techies I know that use Chrome are those I have installed Chrome for.

Most people who “just use the computer” these days DO use edge, in my experience.
