That was me in the first few months after I had to replace the senior dev when he took a better job. I was only junior for like 5 months prior to this, I also lied about having 2 years of experience in the interview and the team misunderstood my quick learning with expertise. At the end they thought I was good enough for the position but I was freaking out because I was lacking a lot of experience, I still took it because the raise was huge. I couldn't sleep well for months while I was trying my best to learn how to do my job.

The code is so old that their developers are already dead.

I was curious about it too and there was a paper about it with the following summary:

Valve is a “flat” company without a management hierarchy or traditional boss roles: instead of top-down organization and management, Valve employees are free to work on whatever projects they choose and to convince other employees to join collaborative groups. Decision-making is thus “democratized” rather than centralized in key management positions. This peculiar structure, or lack thereof, seems to challenge conventional ideas about organization not only in the video game business but also business in general.

It streams video through your LAN network so its equivalent client can play it. The name VLC comes from Video Lan Client which was the app's original purpose.

China's internet is isolated from the rest of the world. We would be looking at a lot of content created from china if it wasn't like that.

Nature does crazy stuff

It isn't my pet. I'm growing it for a stew.

I've used https://reviewmeta.com and its browser extension to get a corrected stars count after it filters out fake reviews. I don't know how good it is still today but it's something.

Google photos made it difficult to download or delete your pictures on purpose. You have to manually select them. There is still a way to get them and it was because of GDPR, when you ask google for the whole data of your account they include the pictures and video from google photos.

This is not good.

Male rites of passage

1. Maku: This is the first rite of passage for the boys. They are separated from their mothers at this stage and participate in bloodletting (where long sticks are inserted up their nostrils to make them bleed), therefore ridding themselves of their mothers' presence in them. The Simbari people do not believe that males are born with semen and so, during Maku, the boys participate in fellatio. They are also required to undergo a strict diet during this time period, which is from age 7–10.

2. Imbutu: This stage is filled with camaraderie, male bonding, and rewards for making it through the first set of Rites.

3. Ipmangwi: During this stage, the boys begin to go through puberty, and they no longer need to participate in fellatio. They also learn gender roles, and how to have intercourse. Once they have learned this, they look for a wife and marry during this stage. It lasts for three years as well, during the ages 13–16.

4. Nupusha: During this stage, the males get married and have intercourse. This stage happens only after the others have been completed, and they must be at least 16 years old.

5. Taiketnyi: The males undergo bloodletting again during this stage, as their wives have their first menstrual cycle as married women.

6. Moondung: This stage is when the women give birth to their first child. This is the final step, and signifies completion of the Rites of passage. They can now be considered full-grown, respectable men.

The vending machine would reject all bills because uBlock developers don't accept donations.

I cant hold them firmly, they are too thin. I want thicker phones.

I'm worried that it would create a reason for bots to spam the communities and farm for points.

So, maybe HDD can hardly get any more cheaper as there is little to non room for improvement while SSD can get higher NAND transistors density.

When YouTube was blocking ublock people was surprised that they couldnt donate to the project.

Is there an equivalent of a torrent site like nyaa.si but for videos of youtube channels?

I like the audible feedback that I pressed the button along with the tactile feedback. This really helped me with the fatigue strain in my fingers as I no longer press the button all the way down at full strength.

Would a butter knife be a good choice?

Yes

And the people that try to force it by replacing the el/ella(ellos/ellas) with Elle(Elles), and for gendered words the a/o at the end of words with the letter E
