Pescadores del puerto de Málaga tiran al mar el bocarte porque en la rula sólo les ofrecen 0,3 € por kilo. Pide bocarte fresco en tu pescadería, si no se consume fresco baja mucho de precio no ganan casi nada. Un Retuit por los pescadores, échales una mano, te lo agradecerán.

@IML_SIYYA @Mario_Sneh In the front building there was a luxury flat, 150sqm, 2 balconies, nice floors, elevatery brand new built.. at 6k per month 🤣

[Markus @max_markus]

@IML_SIYYA @Mario_Sneh It depends, my Munich flat 85sqm 3 room in the 4th floor without elevator was already 1700€ too, and it was cheaper than the flats around 😅
And this was simple but renovated few years ago. without kitchen.

@jxstfeli @1llegalEngineer Also realized that after posting. Left it for someone to spot the issue 🫶

[Markus @max_markus]

@Xatamos @TheManMakerx Thats a totally different view then, tough if there is just one parent at home. You might want to bring a bit more context to your initial post next time. It really sounded weird.. sorry for wrong assumptions based on that.

[Markus @max_markus]

@Xatamos @TheManMakerx Crazy how ppl brag about being bad parents. Not even realizing that the first years are the tough ones, with much more mental load in the beginning. it becomes way easier to take care with every year they grow up.

“Can I bring my baby to the interview?”

The message came in at 11 PM:

“Hi, I have an interview with you tomorrow at 2 PM. My childcare fell through. Can I bring my 8-month-old? I understand if you need to reschedule.”

Old me would have rescheduled.
Unprofessional. Distraction. Red flag.

New me replied:
“Absolutely. See you tomorrow.”

She showed up with her baby on her hip.
She apologized three times before even sitting down.

Ten minutes in, the baby started crying.
She tried to soothe him while answering questions.
She apologized again.

I stopped the interview and said:

“Hey. You’re managing a fussy baby, answering complex questions, and staying calm under pressure. That’s literally the job. Handling chaos while staying professional. You’re already proving you can do it.”

Her eyes filled with tears.

We hired her.

She’s been with us for a year now.
The most reliable team member we have.

Why?

Because when you’re used to handling a screaming infant at 3 AM and still showing up to work the next day, workplace stress feels like nothing.

Working parents, especially mothers, are some of the most organized, efficient, and resilient people you’ll ever hire.

Yet we lose them because our hiring processes are built for people with zero caregiving responsibilities.

If your interview process can’t accommodate a parent facing a childcare issue, you’re not filtering for professionalism.

You’re filtering for privilege.

@ITalkWisely @Simon_Ingari In Germany it's always at least 6 weeks, but also quite common to have 3 or 6 months depending on position. For cto and such it can also be 12 months notice 🤣

[Markus @max_markus]

@Bodaley_Yodel @menscoach1 @shipoopii69 What a bulls*it.
Thats just because you're not capable or afraidof taking care of your child alone.
And yes, money might help, but it does not solve parenting. What really helps are relatives who are commited to help and live close to you. No matter if you're the mom or dad.

You've been using Linux for years. But you're still doing things the hard way.
Here are 7 commands that'll save you hours:

1. Forgot to add sudo?
- Type `sudo !!`
- It repeats your last command with sudo. No retyping.

2. Just created a file?
- Use `vim !$` to open it.
- The !$ grabs the last thing you typed.

3. Can't remember that command?
- Press Ctrl + R and start typing.
- It searches your entire command history.

4. Made a typo in a long command?
- Type `fc`
- It opens your last command in an editor. Fix it and save. Done.

5. Jumping between folders?
- Use pushd /some/path to save a location.
- Use popd to go back.
- No more typing long paths over and over.

6. Want to see your folder structure?
- Type `tree -L 2`
- Shows everything like an actual tree. Much cleaner than ls.

7. Need to go back to your last folder?
- Just type cd -
- Takes you right back. Simple.

Bonus:
Stop writing `cat file | grep something`
- Just write `grep something file`
- Does the same thing. Way cleaner.

I've used Linux for years. These small commands save me time every single day.

Bookmark this. Your future self will thank you.

🇺🇦 Selenskyj: Der Krieg muss gerecht beendet werden, und ich bin allen dankbar, die jetzt an der Seite der Ukraine, an der Seite unseres Volkes, für den Frieden in der Ukraine stehen, der die lebenswichtigen Sicherheitsinteressen unserer europäischen Völker schützt.

Wie wärs mit Parallels für Mac? Dann hast du Windows am Mac, kannst auch auf die selben Dateien zugreifen. die Win Programme ähnlich nutzen als wären sie Mac Apps..
