Bonus points if you move to the sewers of your home town and cast your fist menacingly towards the voices coming from above, muttering “I will show you all…!” in a very flawed American accent
I spent 8 years doing Java development, layoffs are coming soon (my second time this year! 😊), I know how hard it is to get a job out there, and I’m tired of Java. So I was wondering if anyone had any advice for pointing my career in a new direction. I’d like there to be some technical aspect to it still, which is why I...

I once heard that in the middle of 20th century, public transportation in the USA was widely privatized and bought by automotive manufacturers, and then wilfully left to rot, so that people would buy more cars....
This is what I had heard of ages ago, thanks a lot!
If I understand this correctly, GM conspired to undermine public streetcars not to sell more private cars, but to sell public buses and supplies for them?
So I guess the part about selling cars that I heard was a myth, or at least not supported by evidence. Who knows what really went on in the GM executives’ minds, though?
Not a remake or remaster or rerelease of something old, but something inspired or influenced by something either popular or a cult classic. Also this could extend to hardware/tech too, not only media.
Oof. I can be a little judgmental of the health system costs you must have incurred with all that, if you want, because at this point it seems like you’re enjoying all the suffering
I can completely see the amorality of this, I would just be surprised if there wasn’t a place like that. An archive of depravity or something.
Or it wouldn’t necessarily have to be about that kind of video. I mean lots of videos get taken down, for various reasons, that have something like historic relevance for online culture. Is there no place that saves them? An internet archive for videos?

I am in an intense love-hate relationship with Spotify. It makes good mixes for me, I have found a lot of great bands that way. BUT IT KEEPS REGURGITATING THE SAME SONGS IN THERE. I know about Song Radios and Artist Radios, so please don’t recommend those. Smart Shuttle doesn’t cut it, either....
Thanks, maybe I should really Check that and Apple music out… still frustrating, as no option seems to be great. How can that be, after so many years of music services? What are all those developers doing? Are they stuck in scrum meeting timeloops?
I want to talk in an American accent but how can I transition into it slowly for people who know me without them noticing a sudden change?
As strange as it may seem, I hate my accent and want to speak like an American because I think it sounds cooler and more like how I want to sound....
Any recommendations for a career change?
