Yes - why are these adjectives even coming up at all? There are alternatives that would probably make your point in a succinct manner without being sexist.


Moonlight is great, but be careful about overestimating how fast video decoding is. I would get 10-40ms additional latency, jitter doing moonlight from tv, vs running it on Linux on my mini PC homelab hooked up to the TV, my decoding/network latency was like 1-2ms for a frame


Yes, of course, I wouldn't play a game that requires fast reactions over Moonlight, but 40ms won't ruin the experience for most games.


++ for the LG homebrew community. The homebrew store literally has an app now that will auto refresh your dev token so your TV doesn't go out of devmode and uninstall all of your home brew. Used to have to setup a cron job to renew/refresh dev mode.


Is rooting just for homebrew or can I get rid of all the advertising and dark patterns?


Pi-hole gets rid of a lot of the advertising, and homebrew gets you an ad-free YouTube client, but dark patterns are still there.


All my random open source contributions/projects I think have helped. Especially since I've been working in a niche like Salesforce, it really gives me a leg up to show that I've built stuff in nodejs, c#, etc.

The other gain is that I learned a lot from those, and that will show through in an interview regardless of whether they looked at my GitHub or not.


I dunno, I feel like I can be transparent with my manager when we ask each other that. I think it depends on your relationship with them and the company culture.


I worked at a company that used Proofpoint. Often had to reach out to get emails out of quarantine, etc.

Have you tried contacting the customer and asking them to have their IT team allowlist you?

Had similar issues with Yahoo/AOL.


Customer service do not entertain us because we are not Proofpoint active customer. Only way to get in touch with us is a dynamic URL generated by them for our IP address. We filled it out immediately about two month ago but they did not respond. It seems like a black hole.


This is the same company that put out a local dev server for their frontend stack and let it rot into an unusable buggy mess 2 years later. They are planning to re-introduce it in 2025.

Ive been using MS copilot successfully for Apex (Salesforce's backend language) and JavaScript. I would trust Microsoft over Salesforce any day for dev tools.


apex is a child’s toy language designed to do simple form building applications. It’s no surprise that LLMs excel in writing it


Yeah it's basically java 1.5...


Maybe it's time to finally try the Linux desktop. I mostly game hobby wise, and proton is in great shape nowadays.


I've played wow on my steam deck, in addition to Warcraft 3 remastered.

Blizz games are definitely doable now for the most part.


Agree with this. I'm fine with companies that make profit while still providing "free" knowledge/diagrams/software. Valve's contributions to proton/drivers has improved Linux gaming potential, even if you don't have/buy a Steam Deck. I view this in a similar lens.
