I feel you. And I work in tech (maybe you do too, idk). Point is, I’d need a bicycle AND a career change…

Taringa, it was the go-to place for everything, especially content in spanish

I was struggling to find a job and my friend looked at my resume and was like, dude you need to put more bullshit there, add a bunch of stuff, even if it’s fake, no one cares, everyone does it. After so much rejection I was willing to try anything, fortunately a company hired me just around those days. But next time I’ll probably have to take his advice…

Been a thing for ages in Finland, never thought it would actually expand haha

Football is being killed by FIFA, if anything

Even worse when they make you create an account in their career portal just to apply

I remember when I got here it was a nightmare for the first few months when I didn’t have strong auth. It took several months to open a bank account and you basically can’t do anything without that stuff

Oh yes this QR code bullshit drives me nuts back home too

Been thinking of trying this. Thing is nobody uses cash anymore around here (Nordics). In supermarkets I know for sure I can use cash, but restaurants, bars or small business it’s going to be hit and miss. I guess I’d have to endure the awkwardness of asking in every single place if they take cash or not

Another one of this kind is rm -rf node_modules && npm install

Your .env with production credentials is now up on a public repo

This would be the best way. Unfortunately they made it the other way around. A screen at the door shows the code, and you scan it with the app.

In my previous gym the code was on the app, but I’m not sure anymore if it was static or it changed over time. But the reader on the door was awful, I used to spend a good 3 minutes trying different angles with my phone to make it recognize the code.

Ohh. This is exactly the side project idea I’ve had on the back of my mind for a few years now. Something minimal and straightforward, just to sharpen my programming skills and learn a couple of things along the way. Maybe I’ll get around to building it some day.

Yeah I’ve been saying this to people. Don’t get mad at GDPR, get mad at companies who harvest your data

I like to use cash. Used it all the time. But now I’ve fallen for the bank-card convenience… (especially self-checkout counters).

I’ve been considering to start using cash more again, but also I’ve noticed a bunch of places that don’t take cash anymore :/

I’ve used Exportify (https://github.com/watsonbox/exportify) to get CSVs of my playlists. I do it for kind of disaster recovery scenario, so I’ve never actually had to re-import my playlists. Judging from the readme it seems it’s possible but tedious. And as for importing to a different service, no idea.

It does require you to log in with your Spotify account though. But I think it’s trustworthy enough and also you can self host it.

Hmm yes maybe. I do remember a paywall bypass extension was removed from there because publishers were complaining to Vercel. Worst case scenario I guess your website gets taken down

You can create a simple static website and deploy it to Vercel for free. You can buy a domain name and attach it pretty easily, but it’s not needed (by default website will have .vercel.app domain).
