  • only one step.

    one simple step.

    (made only with 8 legs)

  • no the "xyz be like" phrasing implies means it's parody

  • I like that plan because it ends up paying 200%

    edit: 199%

  • how do glasses use dog?

  • "for each desired change, make the change easy (warning: this may be hard), then make the easy change"

    Kent Beck (got this version of his quote from Twitter but it's much older than that)

  • The issue is bridging the gap

    Yes, but the irony is that we already have the bridges, it's just we keep jumping off of them at random places, thinking it's the other bank.

  • No, we should educate all devs and fix all broken time API's,...

    wait, your solution seems far easier.

  • No, take tHe NeW jErSeY approach. Keep the implementation simple.

    Everyone, everywhere on UTC.

    • 7:00 - Everyone wake up at
    • 8:00 - Everyone go to school/work 8:00 AM
    • ...
    • 21:00 - Everyone sleep.

    We'll figure out the logistics as we go.

    New Order of Monks, in short, NOOM

  • No wonder they never invented time machines to get to the future, if we're so keen on bullying them.

  • Think of it as you and your dog working on shifts.

    When your dog works, you don't have to, but now it's your turn.

  • Can't help but think of a "senior dev" "explaining" (hing: brain-dumping) some bizarre reasoning why his unusable untested undocumented untyped API uses floats for item counts or something, and expecting the "junior dev" to just nod and keep that in their mind and adapt to it.

    (Instead of making every possible excuse not to work with that API and instead doing something else where they can make some progress without going insane.)

  • If so many people weren’t leaving the field entirely due this issue (the chief complaint ALWAYS being under-staffing / low nurse-to-patient ratios, THEN pay), there would be plenty of nurses to go around

    I think both can be true.

    From expenses point of view, Isn't under-staffing almost the same thing as low pay? What's preventing hospital administrators from hiring more nurses? If it's just money, then I don't think the complaint of under-staffing all that different from the complaint of low pay; I suspect it's even affected by sort of preference (some nurses would prefer working more for better pay, others would prefer sharing the workload.)

    Of course from administration / governance point of view it boils down to money, what I'm saying is that I find it unlikely is that it's "just hire more nurses". It's also doctors, other staff, etc. It's more likely the whole system.

  • just hire more nurses

    Look, I get your point, but it's not like nurses grow on trees. (Especially good nurses.)

    Things need fixing, but they need fixing far earlier than that.

  • makes me think of the good ol't times when the air was cleaner, roads were safer and our bosses used to pay us in Thinkpads, not this "fiat money" nonsense.

  • hehe, FAX sounds like TCP ACK but waaay more rude.

  • You know, charts can lie, but with THAT crosshatch? Impossible.

  • i would love to be in that camp, fall is great, it's just too depressing that winter is coming soon.

    few more summers like this one and i'll start getting depressed on Spring, because of looming Summer.
