@azamsharp Aw come on, you can always bike around the bayous and get held at gunpoint.

@bpmarkowitz That windshield looks so expensive

[Chris @v1100110]

@samanbb Remote or on-site?

[Chris @v1100110]

@bpmarkowitz Thanks! We are doing ok. Far enough away from the city center that our outages are minimal.

[Chris @v1100110]

@subdigital If you’re close(spring) I may be able to help.

[Chris @v1100110]

@bpmarkowitz It’s frustrating for sure. Even ERCOT has said that the majority of offline generation is natural gas. The only thing that would have prevented this is preparedness.

Tech- where job descriptions sound like p90x ads.

"Whether Back-End, Front-End, Full-Stack, Dev-Ops, or Mobile, a big part of what makes being a member of the engineering team at X so rewarding is the challenge. The job starts hard, and only gets harder."

Can these people hear themselves?

[Chris @v1100110]

@bryanray I just got feedback of a "red flag" because I asked about work hours. Job Description even had "We value work-life balance" under the Why Us section.

[Chris @v1100110]

@DynamicWebPaige Sounds pretty dreamy honestly.

@bpmarkowitz @keleftheriou First app I developed on my own was rejected for the same reason, and this was back when people were still making fart apps.

@azamsharp My wife is an NP and we were talking about this last night. The vaccine supply is low right now, so the most at risk are the target for now. Eligibility restrictions will lessen as the supply grows. Hopefully soon.

@arshbajwaa Found this. Should explain for easier understanding.

[Chris @v1100110]

@pearapps I think an unfortunate fact may be that some(most) of the worlds smartest people are simply obsessed with wealth. In other words they are not consumed by the system, they actively create it.

[Chris @v1100110]

@DynamicWebPaige I tried for a long time to make myself get on board with it because I just love software. Turned out to be a real hurdle.

[Chris @v1100110]

@azamsharp It seems the path forward for those of us working in this field who care about such things is self-employment. I've really been considering a career change lately.

[Chris @v1100110]

@azamsharp I think it will be "remote" for a few days a week. So not enough change to get hired if you live > 1-2 hours away.

[Chris @v1100110]

@bpmarkowitz I bought a Rift S last year and want to sell it because of this.

[Chris @v1100110]

@bpmarkowitz Very clean!

[Chris @v1100110]

@bpmarkowitz I deleted my account on fb and Ig a couple weeks ago.
