Working in tech has made me a better problem solver so I'm not regretful but I feel like I've done all I set out to do. I've realized there's more currency than cash. Experiences and socializing is king. Spending 40 years slaving away on meaningless problems on a box in a corporate rat race so a number in an account goes up is guaranteed misery. Not like I really care about money anyway I live modestly and don't have any hobbies that cost more than $50 a month if that. The only thing that holds me back is the effort and debt to change careers. Once you get settled in a field, it seems like such a massive pain in the ass to throw it all away and start over

...k, how could monero be broken then?

>In any case, Chainalysis claims to have found a method for deanonymizing Monero transactions. A leak reveals that a multiple approach is used by utilizing both on-chain and off-chain data. Poisoned nodes are used as well as the analysis of transaction patterns. This shows once again how important it is not to rely on third-party nodes, but to operate your own.

lmfao imagine not running your own node. "transaction patterns" could mean correlating transactions from a monero chian to/from a less secure chain (e.g. btc). in other words, using the tech like a fucking retard.

>The question of whether the deanonymizations in Japan are merely due to user misconduct or whether an actual deanonymization has taken place remains unanswered, but leaves a certain amount of uncertainty for all Monero users.

I managed to get a low paying full-time job (~40k a year) recently and was determined to move out because of how batshit insane she drives me. But I’m not sure if the headache of burning every last cent I make on a shitty apartment will improve my life any more than having to live with a crazy lady rent free.

Had a recruiter call me today about a job. After the initial exchange of pleasantries he started explaining the job and I just kept cutting him off and saying "Remote? Remote? Remote?" over and over. Each time he tried to say something else I would do it again. Eventually he just hung up.

>>103169900
That sucks. I'm 36 and live with my mom and her choices annoy the shit out of me but at least once I go in my room and close the door she knows that's the sign to leave me alone.

>>103169900
I feel you Anon.
Did you try to talk to her?
Like, you need some sleep and you are an adult now, so you know how to manage your time and when to wake up?
As for your own house/appartement, depens on your country. Usualy, if you can stay with your parents until you save enough to buy, that's better.
But also, if you have enough to buy the house, negociate with your banker.
Take a credit with low fees and place your money.
This way, you both have your flat and keep most of your money (with interest).
Buying the whole house upfront is not that of a great idea if you can have both good interest rates on the loan (low interest) and good interests on your saving (high interests).
But don't take my word for it, use any spreadsheet and simulate the next ten years for both situations.

no one reads commit messages basically ever
git doesn't really support the sort of workflow that people pretend structured commits simplify, bisect basically never works in real projects, cherry picking and modifying from history almost always leads to wonky state and merge conflicts and 99% of the time you might as well just edit the shit you need to change yourself without relying on your VCS to hack your way through it
the only kind of okay argument for it is blame stuff being a little better but let's be honest people only use blaming to curse at other devs and basically nothing else useful
it will probably get squashed into the PR name either way so who gives a fuck? unless you DON'T squash and then.. why? when you're working with a bunch of different people not squashing leads to most of your git history looking just like that commit, and it's even more of a pain to look at prior notable changes
that being said big thumbs up for following best practices for your personal projects, automated bisect makes fixing regressions so comfy when you know every commit is meaningful and workable

get experience so you can get an entry level position

If you didn't make friends that are working already, start going to tech meet up events and connect with those people. Eventually ask them for a referral. It doesn't hurt them to refer you and typically they get a bonus around 3k for doing so so it's in their best interest.
Nobody wants to hire some random asshole out of an endless horde. Much safer to hire from referral. The stats back this up. Something like 40% of new hires are referred, but they're only 5% of applications.

I second this. Got a friend over at Rockstar (the GTA ones) who's been bugging me to go apply and move to UK already because he'd get a bonus.

how do I go to tech meetups if I work full time.
Unemployed student have it so easy

pro-tip: If you're American hire an accountant otherwise your going to get absolutely destroyed tax-wise if you do this.

Tech meetups are attended by employed people otherwise I wouldn't have recommended it. A simple Google search would help for starters.
Tech meetups in "your area"
Notice they're publicly listed, stating the area for the talk, and the hours that are almost always after work hours. If you can't even do this I'm not sure work is in your future.

there is only one for minorities and one focused on tech and religion.

useless.

this many layered red flags
>programmer doesn't have a trusted senior to desk check his work let alone actual code review/test processes
>big boss is willing to farm out code review to people not employed as coders; he is willing to make you act well outside your job description for nothing extra
>giving you potentially sensitive employee/business data to "check" results
>this is all done in secret, or at least not telling you the full offize realpolitik story
>you're a furfaggot


>it's all over a nonsense value that doesn't mean anything anyway and could have been handled by a fucking excel sheet

>there is only one for minorities
Just say you're Jewish.
>and one focused on tech and religion.
Just pretend you're religious.

Life is only a cage if you let it be, anon.

>Not "ally" maxing
>Not (((spiritual)))
If you want to stay unemployed be my guest. Chances are you just live in a bad state for tech and you're not gonna find a job at all unless you move.

people do this and every HR person complains about it incessantly. it's not stalking itself, but uses enough of its techniques that people will wonder wtf is wrong with you and why you thought doing that was a good idea.

>>103174158
sounds like comfy local heckdesk. help desk that is purely "local IT guy" is comfy because being in the same office day in day out and being a small office tends to make people not hate you as much, and it's "fun" because instead of azure deployment #21756519 you do all kinds of janky weird shit and no one knows enough about your job to stop you from doing said janky weird shit

>Have to compete with AI, Jeets, and HR stacies too lazy to do their job

What do you think their job is? Sifting through 10,000 applications from jeets and neets?
Their job is to fill the position with a candidate that can do the job. They're going to get a million messages, and 3 referrals. They'll ignore every single cold apply and call those referrals first. You'd better hope that the referrals are worthless otherwise you'll never get even that first call. This is the world you live in. Learn to adapt or drown.

why are manholes in round?
How would you move Mt. Fiji?
why are tennis balls fuzzy?
