I am by no means gadget shaming, don’t get me wrong. It’s just I do all you mentioned there with a stopwatch on my phone, and personally I would never consider buying a dedicated stopwatch for this purpose. I’m happy you’re enjoying yours though, may it last you long!

Have you heard of smartphones? 😅

I personally haven’t tried the ergonomic keyboards yet, have been using Ducky One 2 for a few years and recently got KBDcraft Kit Adam (Lego keyboard) and I’m enjoying this one, super soft and nice sounding switches. From the ergonomic keyboards I’ve seen Keychron K11 Pro as an interesting one, but you’d have to see if it fits you, I can’t really recommend any myself.

That’s such a weird concept, definitely a shower thought. I like the idea of it, even though it’s very unlikely. We might never know… That’s the same vibe as with the “we’re in a simulation” theory. Hard to prove or disprove.

I use Memmy, but I don’t really like it. I might try Voyager looking at people’s comments.

Podlasie in Poland, definitely. My friend’s parents have both the same maiden name despite not being closely related. Their whole village has basically the same surname.

Doesn’t really exist in the Slavic countries, so I wouldn’t say it’s universal.

Chill, don’t be upset… we’re all civil here. I’m talking about a situation where someone shares their salary e.g. here on Lemmy. Then you’d have no clue what’s their country and what’s the currency they mean. There are plenty of other examples where currency is not obvious if you don’t state it clearly, or have enough context to know it from that.

Same in Poland, it’s definitely more common to discuss monthly salaries. I had to adjust when moved to Germany, as almost everyone uses yearly base. Though I would say it makes sense considering yearly bonuses etc.

We’re on the Internet, how should anyone know what’s “your” currency?

Vueling, Spanish low-cost carrier, from Berlin to Bilbao on my first international business trip back in 2017. I loved the announcements in Spanish during the flight.

Nope, I don’t think it matters that much. I never had an issue with acting as usual, without exaggerating my “human behavior”.

Exactly. In the grand scheme of things, one person (or even millions, doesn’t matter) will not make a dent in the models output. They have much more data to counter these shenanigans.

29, Poland/Germany. Yes, like almost everyone in Europe. Although, it is getting more popular to be automatic-only. I like driving manual, however prefer automatic due to convenience of it. I don’t have a car at the moment (public transport serves me well), but if I had, I’d go for automatic.

What if you don’t feel that tired the whole night? Would you not sleep and go to work after that sleepless night?

The quick response to the office tomorrow morning I will be in the same thing happened to me and you are Rika though I don’t know what to do it at the beginning of the day I will be in the same thing happened to me and you are Rika though I don’t know what to do it at the beginning of the day I will be in the same thing happened to me and you are Rika though I don’t know what to do it at the beginning of the day I will be in the same thing happened to me and you are Rika though I don’t know what to do it at the beginning of the day I will be in the same thing happened to me and you are Rika…

10% is definitely too low. I would say even 20% is low, but that depends on your specific situation, market, industry etc. 3 months ago I moved companies within the same field, asked for about 60% raise, and got it without further negotiations. Now I’m thinking I should have said more right from the start, but oh well, I can’t be mad. @OP, start high and be prepared to negotiate down. You should always have 2 numbers prepared: one you say up front and one you are willing to accept.

Wholeheartedly disagree about the “no job is fun” part. I enjoy doing my job and feel somehow accomplished. Nonetheless, I wouldn’t do it for free either. These are 2 separate things.

I’m afraid that as long as you have to go to github and run such scripts for these things, Lemmy will stay a nerd-only place.

Simply yes. Not going back
