I'd highly suggest doing some serious research into wherever you're putting you money. Don't go throwing it around at trends if you don't have, at minimal, a fundamental understanding of how they work.

Onboarding green devs into anything more than a simple Vue app is a lot more complex than a React app of similar complexity, from my experience.

The simplicity of the nested, inception style architecture of React makes it super easy to onboard and up-ramp.

Same goes for surfing. Your life will start revolving around weather patterns and swell forecasts.

I might be able to provide some insight here. I live at one of the most crowded and user-friendly surf spots on the planet. There's constantly hundreds of people in the water fighting for waves.

The one thing I noticed mostly is how many people come here and just cannot get waves, while there's tens of kilometres of empty beach within 5 minutes drive.

They could literally go anywhere and get a few waves but they choose here and get nothing (except annoyed).

It either comes down to not knowing any better or thinking they're better than they are... often both.

My advice is to go exploring and find a less crowded spot. You may not need to go to the most popular spot to find waves.

I agree.

For an advanced surfer they're great as a 'reset', forcing you focus on fundamentals like weight distribution flow through manoeuvres.

The only problem is if you ride them for too long you start to lose your timing.

Love the shortboard but gotta reset sometimes.

Aircraft are not assigned to the same routes at the same times every day. They're chopped and changed all the time. It's impossible to have different configurations for different aircraft.

You didn't pay for any space. You paid for the use of a seat for that particular flight.

Like the thousands of unemployed people? Some haven't eaten for years.

That's not what he means, just like that's not what you mean.

So I'm supposed to pack up my computer, a couple of monitors, my notebooks and stationary and move it all whenever the noise levels are distracting me from focussing?

Sounds efficient.

Semantic markup is for computer to categorise and file. The easier google can figure out what your page is trying to do, more efficiently it can serve it into the right hands.

Minimum 6 months in some countries.

Bitcoin does not equal coinbase. Two completely different things.

You don't understand? It's like this: valuation is based off how many users x how much each user is worth (in terms of targeted advertising).

Reddit has a lot of users but it's hard to build user profiles for targeted advertising as there's a lot of anonymity and shot posting.

Teen snapshot sites are worth more because because its real people, posting real things. That data is valuable.

You joke but I think there's something more at play here. Sounds like the guy cannot multitask at all. Maybe on the spectrum.

An alternative approach I use to combat alpha-holes, and general abuse/anger is to not answer the question 100%, or answer with a lot of ambiguity. The goal is to raise more questions than you answer (don't answer them, just throw a curve ball). Couple it with some down-talking and you're good to go.

This throws the attacker into a bit of mental confusion and their anger subsides instantly as they're trying to process this unexpected deviation from their pre-planned storyline. Example:

Ahole: Your code broke while demoing it. You're a shit dev and you should feel shit.

You: You demoed with the alpha code?! Really? Did your mom never tell you to ask before you touch? hope you learnt a lesson today. Maybe you should write some lines.... ' I shall not touch alpha code....'

This is probably an extreme example but it works in every day situations too. The goal is not to argue back at all. Just flip the entire thing on its head and leave them out to dry. If they come to battle with a knife, shoot to kill.

Beyond close. We've been touching for years.

> nip out for a fag

A once common sentence which, after not hearing it for years, suddenly contains connotations of rasism and heterosexism.

I saw the same thing in the late 90s. Never knew what it was until just now.

No. Nobody uses it after the un-backwards-conpatibility scandal of '14. People are in limbo searching for the next angular but, alas, it cannot be found.

Do you have any suggestions, your holiness?

I stand corrected. Looks as if things have changed from what I remember.
