I landed a remote Android dev job about 3 months ago. The work is super chill and there’s a ton of downtime, so I usually just play games or do nothing. Lately I’ve been thinking about trying to get a second job, any tips? I’ve got around 2 YOE, not counting this one.I'm not a 'murrican or eurobro tho so any pay is fine for me I think
>>107847595/twg/ being TRUTH NUKING begins NOW.The man who has fully understood the theory of complete irresponsibility (the following aphorism) can no longer include the so-called justice that punishes and rewards within the concept of justice, if that consists in giving each his due. For the man who is punished does not deserve the punishment: he is only being used as the means to frighten others away from certain future actions; likewise, the man who is rewarded does not deserve this reward; he could not act other than as he did. Thus a reward means only an encouragement, for him and others, to provide a motive for subsequent actions: praise is shouted to the runner on the track not to the one who has reached the finish line. Neither punishment nor reward are due to anyone as his; they are given to him because it is useful, without his justly having any claims on them. One must say, "The wise man rewards not because men have acted rightly," just as it was said, "The wise man punishes not because men have acted badly, but so they will not act badly." If we were to dispense with punishment and reward, we would lose the strongest motives driving men away from certain actions and toward other actions; the advantage of man requires that they continue; and in that punishment and reward, blame and praise affect vanity most acutely, the same advantage also requires that vanity continue.

Are bone-conductive headphones any good? Being able to listen to stuff while having full hearing sounds pretty appealing
>>107849009It's the legendary 59 run. It's at the appraisal office right now, as I type this. Pretty exciting times with the fambam right now. I'll let you guys know for sure. But I'm thinking I might be able to retire and travel. I hear the Siberian nights are superb this time of year...
>>107839058Never used them myself but as I understand they're no good for music or entertainment, they're basically only useful for listening to spoken word type of content. If you want good sound quality while still hearing your surroundings you should just get open headphones, some of them don't really block sound at all.
>>107849009quick, stick your dick in it
>>107849029>>107849040Nta. I actually own a pair and both of the sound you hear is from the ear piece vibrating loud enough to hear the audio. Some of the DOES the conducted through your ear but most of it is just the out-out-ear earpiece vibrating. If you plump both of your ears while listening with them the sound quality gets noticably worse. Like a lot worse because it's muffled. Models like mine in pic rel (Shokz OpenRun Pro 2) have tiny speaker grills on them which lead to better sound quality so unless you're trying to swim with them just go for models like this. He's correct in saying the "bone conduction" marketing is kinda misleading >If you use ear plugs or just shove your fingers over your ears the volume and bass increase significantlyNo...they do not. The exact opposite happens. You do not get bone conduction earbuds for bass. That's the one area they're all very bad at, even ones like mine that have have tiny speakers along with vibration.
>>107848202Dumbass, its pretty obvious when people are wearing earbuds and are on the phone. Especially if the buds are white and ESPECIALLY if you have bone conduction earbuds that wrap around your head

>Steven Bartlett, the founder and host of The Diary of a CEO podcast, took a chance on an applicant with a virtually blank CV for that very reason.>“I hired someone who’s CV was two lines. Their experience was zero,” Bartlett explained in a recent LinkedIn post. “Much of the reason why I gave her the job was because: She thanked the security guard by name on the way into the building.”>“When she didn’t know something, in the interview she said ‘I don’t know that yet, but here’s how I’d figure it out,’” Bartlett explained. “After the interview she went and self-taught herself the answer she didn’t know, and emailed it to me within hours.”>The founder took a chance on the experience-less candidate, and it didn’t take long to pay off; Bartlett said that six months later, she has proved herself as one of the best hires he’s ever made. “Fifteen years of hiring has taught me that culture fit and character is MUCH harder to hire than experience, skills or education.” https://fortune.com/2026/01/08/diary-of-a-ceo-founder-steven-bartlett-hired-someone-zero-work-experience-thanked-security-guard-before-interview/

>>107843974Maybe what you're allowed to tell the chatbot but not what you type elsewhere. You are free to type whatever you want on 4chan or any other site. Windows is not stopping you, but if you type illegal text, the website provider can and will stop you. Win 11 has given me zero issues with everything enabled on default, this is being an astroturfed pushed issue that has not led to a single arrest of a Win11 user to this day. Overblown ai-phobia

They need to make a 100% flicker free OLED for me to consider buykng an OLED. The automatic brightness dimming also sucks for preserving creators intent. I want stable and predictable brightness even if using HDR.
>>107848010Are you being obtuse on purpose? Windows doesn't show you the brightness slider unless you're on a laptop, despite the monitor being perfectly capable of being controlled over DDC/CI, it's a design decision not to expose that control.KDE doesn't have that problem.

>>107842976Turns out uncensored AI always ends up some flavor of liberal/leftist, even the Chinese models. The best Elon/Grok can do deviating from this by training on X propaganda, fudging the datasets and heavy system prompting is "classical liberalism". As soon as the AI is allowed to weigh other perspectives it turns liberal.AGI/Roko's Basilisk will be liberal and force you to live by liberal principles and ideology.

You're all wrong. Wine is just a Linux implementation of Windows libraries and APIs.

So I ordered a 4K monitor a month ago. It finally showed up in my country last week, but has since not had any updates. AliExpress allowed me to request a refund and the seller did not respond so they just gave me my money back. I have a feeling the monitor will show up eventually, so I will get a free 4K monitor.

NEWS>somebody submitted a huge PR to fix all the issues with 10.11 and it is being reviewed as of a few hours ago!https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/pull/15986
>>107848580The desktop Jellyfin client uses mpv
>>107848812Haven't used it in a while, but doesn't it have limited customization with mpv.conf and input.conf?

I've got one of the previous gen Apple TV 4Ks currently for Plex.I haven't yet tried Swiftfin, but the other day, I was finally watching the latest Monogatari thing and noticed all the signs were weirdly distorted; I thought, "did motbob just fuck up really bad here somehow", then I remembered I was using Infuse -- switched back to Plex (libmpv) and magically everything was perfect.And then last night, on my desktop, I was just opning some DVD as a test, used VLC to check the menus, and I have no idea what was causing it, but it felt like it was stuttering during the demuxing. Again, just opened it in mpv, perfect.I want to switch off of Plex so badly, and I've got a good opportunity this coming week to do it, but man, the idea of exclusively vlckit or Infuse doesn't give me confidence. And from what I could tell, the official Android TV app uses ExoPlayer or something currently? Are there any solid TV interfaces for Jellyfin that are mpv-based under the hood?
>>107831168I haven't ever looked at the Jellyfin codebase, but ORMs are inevitably helll, from my experience, every time. Raw dogging prepared statements is honestly ideal, imo, for maintainability. I'm very surprised every time I've checked in on Jellyfin, there's always some "and we finally switched to EF Core, for real for real this time!" for like four years now.Wtf is the structure of this like? I'm kind of terrified to look; even redoing all the serialization/deserialization for one of the most fucked MMO projects, converting over to Postgres from some ghetto DIY binary-per-player on disk that'd then get passed around over the network to the different worlds, wasn't more than a couple of weeks or so at most.Is there something about their data that makes this way more complex than I'd have imagined, or is this just some scenario where nobody has the motivation to fully commit to it for a month?
