I am a programmer, and I get paid whether or not the product is bought. Shovel your dogshit somewhere else.

Ask your company to pay for the certs. At best you get free certs and can then leave them and make more money somewhere. At worst they say no.

Going from zero certs to getting my Sec+ landed me a better job with a new company and nearly doubled my income. (Cloud architecture engineer). Can't speak to any other certs.

I wish Lemmy was more entertaining, and not just a million Linux articles wearing a trenchcoat

For every hour of work/coding I do, there is probably 4 to 5 hours of waiting for shit to automatically compile, fetch, build, release, apply, get reviewed, approved, and deployed. The downtime is immense, I spend it helping other people with shit or planning company potlucks (I don't work for Microsoft).

I went from Anorexia in the military to getting out and doing calisthenics for years now. I am quite a bit smaller than average. Usually between 13-17%, primarily using Navy Body Fat measurement scale to determine it.

Yeah just like kids don't watch porn before 18, right

This is giving me body fat percentages that are around double what I get from other methods. Not sure what's up, but I don't really believe my 5'8" 150lb ass is 30% body fat

Man we had someone in the army do this. Army doctrine is either outdated or very accessible to the poor, I don't fuckin know, but you aren't required to have a phone.

So this one weird junior Joe just decided he didn't need a phone. Got rid of it, and as a result never got the information he needed on army shit. I loved him for it, and by the law he was in the right. Can't tell him to get a phone.

Unfortunately I was his team lead, and every time my chain of command decided to put out bullshit last minute information over text I had to tell them to suck it and pvt NoPhone wouldn't be at their surprise formation.

Sometimes for important stuff I would have to drive to the barracks and knock on homies door to let him know there's surprise inspections or piss tests and shit.

The workplace should operate entirely without external communication. It worked since the dawn of man, and it should continue to work until the end of man if we want any semblance of work-life balance.

Highschool in hicktown, our salty freak of a gym teacher would let girls stay inside and walk laps.

Boys go outside to play whatever sport, or sometimes go to the tiny wrestling room for dodgeball, and it'd be shirt v skins. Usually he'd pick the fat kids to be skins cuz they needed more "motivation".

Weird to me that people think shirts v skins is fake when there's way weirder shit schools do to kids. We had our biology teacher take the class to his barn down the road and help shear his alpacas for extra credit. Like, school staff can do whatever the hell they want, and kids will just say "okay" if they don't know any better.
