Anna: Are you okay love?

Me: I'm breathing?

Anna: Breathing is really good.

Set goals you can achieve and have supporters who recognise that.

people, is Java Concurrency in Practice still the text to brush up on Java concurrency, or has it been surpassed?

@jonoabroad Oh, and I have an upcoming class - https://learning.oreilly.com/live-events/java-concurrency-in-2-weeks/0636920087672/0642572001421/ - but it might be in the dead of night if you're in NZ.

Do people value feedback when applying to a role that there are typos or circular paths through the process?

I am not telling them as I feel like it would make me sound like a dick, but also 🤷‍♂️

@elronxenu this is what I thought.

@jonoabroad @elronxenu

People appreciate blunt, pointed corrections from a copyeditor when they're worried about looking minutiae.

People also appreciate it from a mentor or developmental editor, without mentioning the specific instances, in broader advice about the techniques of crafting an impression about abstract attitudes and habits like "attention to detail", "critical thinking", "creative problem-solving".

Typos and English might be among the hardest things to advise on.

What has happened to in product search?

are all terms now replaced by "*" so we always get results?

I've just seen a LinkedIn post "social media maybe a recruiters first meeting with you" and well 👋

No one should use NixOS.

No, not because it is bad and there are better ways.

But it lets you declare how you want the OS to be man, like a vibe.

and honestly humanity isn't ready for this.

This has nothing to do with configuring my servers networking and then spending an hour understanding how to connect to it.

sigh when you shut down your server so people can play with your electrical supply and you try doing a git push to said server

@jonoabroad That's me when I don't have access to the internet. "Oh well in that case I'll just catch up on the news. ...No look I need to get entirely off the computer, I'll do some baking, let me just get that recipe from my bookmarks. ...This is hopeless, I'll have to give in and phone the ISP, now what's their phone number again?"

It's 2024 choices for editing PDFs on Windows are pay adobe 2134213412341234 a month or have Word do a horrific job of it.

@jonoabroad Or maybe not... ze googles is giving mixed results - I do remember using a plugin for it years ago. and I mean YEARS so milage may vary these days

What if Frankie had it wrong?

Maybe they misheard and it was Gnome?

"On my way home, welcome to the pleasure Gnome"

"PLLLEEEEEEEEEASURE GNOME"

Also points if you remember @stilgherrian's ~2007 edict videos with said Gnome.

Anyway Welcome to Monday morning job hunting with Jono.
