Hopefully it’s a 96 minute reenactment ofRocket Man.

I’m 100% against the death penalty, but a gun death seems the way to go. A desert eagle pressed against the temple will guarantee the job is done correctly and death is instant. It’s messy, but killing someone shouldn’t be easy to handle.

But if had to choose my way, I’d choose a bottle of good whiskey and a fistful of opioids.

There you go. Dehumanizing Palestinian people. Claiming you don’t mean all of them doesn’t make a bit of difference. There are lots of really horrific people, but they’re still human beings and we must not forget that. Using your language to claim otherwise is how this genocide is being allowed to happen. You’re literally using Nazi language. You’re disgusting.

I was referencing Israel’s official comment on the matter from the article. This is what you’re defending by supporting Israel in this situation:

On October 9, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant announced a “complete siege” of the Gaza Strip. “We are fighting human animals, and we are acting accordingly,” Gallant said.

With 25,000+ lives taken by Israel, many of them women and children civilians, you can’t make the argument he’s not talking about treating civilians like animals.

Calling Palestinian civilians animals and refusing to allow them food and medical supplies isn’t going to improve the situation. What do you think is going to happen? Is Hamas going to say “oh guys, I think we made them mad this time. Better release the hostages so they don’t do anything violent!”?

Bought a house in 2012. It’s now worth almost 3x what I paid for it then. So wildly unfair.

White House national security spokesperson John Kirby told reporters on Thursday that the United States sees no basis for South Africa’s allegation of genocide against Israel over civilian deaths in Gaza.

We’re the bad guys… I’m so embarrassed.

Genocide of the natives was top of the list as soon as we formed a country. 😞

It’s just westerners that pronounce that kind of A sound aaaaall the way up our noses. You’re correct, according to what I learned from Uncle Roger. :)

How is it not?

ter·ror·ism

noun

the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.

They’re using the threat of violence, and sometimes using violence, to push their agenda of Israeli expansion into Palestinian territory.

It made you feel something. Now sit there quietly and think about why that is. What are you getting frustrated with? Why is it bothering you? Unfounded rage is trying to tell you something about yourself. There’s a reason, but you have to be able to be honest with yourself to figure out what it is. Once you can begin to understand it, you can begin to find ways to manage it.

I was working on that yesterday. 😂 Building a feature to resolve variables in a serverless config file to custom sources.

I’ll often cludge something together just to make it work but I don’t feel like I made any progress

That’s a good first step! I’ve been programming for ~25 years and that’s still usually where I start. Get a little code that compiles and produces some kind of output or tracing. Then compare the output to your requirements and tweak the code to get it closer to the right behavior. Run it and repeat till it’s doing what you want. Do this cycle with small changes, like a handful of lines or a short function, not 20 mins of coding at a time.

Test-driven development can also help with breaking down tasks. It takes a good amount of practice to learn the right patterns, but it’s an approach that forces you to work with small narrowly scoped tasks. Then you chain those testable tasks together to create more complex behaviors to create robust testable code.

Experience takes time. Junior developers frequently ask me after I’ve helped them “but how did you just know how to do that? I’ve been trying to solve that for an hour and you did it in 10 seconds!!” The answer is because I’ve solved that exact problem before. More than a few times.

I like go for pretty much everything. Except working with arbitrary JSON. So painful.

My cousin got a job working on FOSS for 5 years out of college. His secret? Work 40+ hours a week literally for free, crash on people’s couches, and get his girlfriend to feed him. He eventually got a real job because that’s obviously totally unsustainable.

Unless you have a sugar daddy/momma or a trust fund, you need an actual job. Some companies make good use of FOSS and give back to the community. But I’d suggest settling for any job to get an income and experience while you figure out what companies you actually want to work for.
