Another new feature added to Nudge today 🚀

TODO:
- Figure out this “marketing” thing.

Some sites are unacceptable when it comes to ads and other crap that nobody wants.

I know you’ve got to make money but come on, UX should at least be a passing thought.

I’ve highlighted the content so you can hopefully spot it.

Bonus: a full screen ad popped up after this.

ChatGPT is the best teacher I’ve ever had 🎓

I’ll only worry if it becomes the best friend I’ve ever had.

Every recruiter: “No matter the outcome, I’ll let you know”

Also every recruiter: *doesn’t let you know*

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[Jess Rascal @JessRascal]

Recruiters ghosting is so annoying.

Surely they could send a one-liner 🤷‍♂️

[Jess Rascal @JessRascal]

@frankefoster It took me years to kill this mentality where I work.

Silver lining: at least you were told the reason for the rejection.

[Jess Rascal @JessRascal]

It’s weird to me when someone mentions that they don’t know something and yet they haven’t thought of googling it 🤷‍♂️

Surely you shouldn’t have to “think” of doing it anymore.

“Visual Studio” is not a skill.

Remove it from your CV/resume.

[Jess Rascal @JessRascal]

@rchardkovacs A good start is using variables like “startTime” instead of “t”.

Don’t make your code a puzzle.

[Jess Rascal @JessRascal]

@shashiwhocodes I did exactly this today but luckily for my employer, my obsessive mind will keep an eye on things over the weekend 🤦‍♂️

[Jess Rascal @JessRascal]

@KevinNaughtonJr Or any role.

[Jess Rascal @JessRascal]

It annoys me when people say I work in “IT”.

I say I work in computing.

It shouldn’t matter but my brain thinks it does 🤷‍♂️

[Jess Rascal @JessRascal]

@jeremy_linaburg Yeah, completely ridiculous and I can’t even think what the reason could be 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[Jess Rascal @JessRascal]

@Zbijelic I’m not sure what I could build in 1-2 hours.

I know I overthink and have to fight the urge of “striving for perfection”, but I’d still be sipping coffee and thinking of ideas in that time 🤣

[Jess Rascal @JessRascal]

I can’t stand someone giving me the “hard sell”.

I guess it works on people seen as it’s still being used long after we all criticised the “used car salesman” stereotype.

Personally, it just pisses me off and makes me not want to do business 🤷‍♂️

[Jess Rascal @JessRascal]

@alex_skazka I thought patches were an “old school” approach but they’re what did it for me in the end.

They took the edge off the withdrawals to make it manageable.

Double good luck 👍

@ios_dev_alb Used a Magic Mouse for years. Love it.

I have no doubt there was a reason they put the charging port on the bottom, they didn’t just mess up 🤣

It lasts ages on a charge anyway so it’s probably not as much of a problem as you might think.
