I believe so aswell, but there is lemmy.ml for example, which apparently is meant to stand for “marxism-leninism” in that specific instance (.ml is Mali’s country TLD).

Now that you mentioned, I guess that is a mirror, whoops!

Sniff made accidental Picasso!

Definitely, good way to put it.

I switched from controls engineering to information technology - in industrial automation interviews not once was I asked to prove my knowledge about PLCs or anything like that, they trusted my education and experience.

The interviews in information technology were like “make us a working app for free before we have a second round of interviews” even after few years of previous experience in their specific field and a repository to show off my free-time projects.

I switched because I got tired of traveling, but holy shit I miss the job market of industrial automation. I still feel like I got more respect working in automation field than I have ever gotten working as a software developer.

Oh no, not sure I want that.

The reason I’m not sure, is because I woke up at 5 am to do my morning run while making cold calls and preparing to open another business because my baby was born 2 hours before and taught me about B2B marketing in AI powered age.

If you want to hear more, hit me up with a DM!

Yeah felt like being in a fever dream sometimes honestly

This dude is a god damn legend.

My previous employer would print out those cringe success and team building story posts from linkedin and hang them around the office because we complained about the working environment, I love that there is good satire of those posts on linkedin now.

This happened in Finland, but I didn’t want to specify it to spark a universal conversation, which succeeded!

I know people from all around the globe deal with privacy issues and hoped that others would share their experiences.

This is another great idea. Similar to having extra email for spam.

That’s the advice I’ve gotten here pretty much, and will probably deal with it in that way from now on!

It is sad that we have to do that, but don’t think this will change any time soon.

Haven’t looked into VOIP phone numbers before, thanks for the tip!

Could have been that too. I was polite and didn’t fuss about it thankfully!

100% would never want to make their day tougher than it already probably is.

This hermit politely declined, paid, thanked, and left. The anger I felt was towards the retail company and the clerk doesn’t need to witness that.

Very true, this is nothing new and just wanted to stop for a moment and rant about my mundane experience and love the the discussion this sparked here!

Holy shit, now that is smart thinking! I can’t believe he already made 300 pounds from listening to marketing calls!

Erittäin hyvät huomiot, en tajunnut itse ajatella heti tuota väestön lisääntymistä suhteessa työikäisten/työkyvyllisten määrän nousuun. Kiitos!

Taisi olla tuossa kuukausi sitten ylellä joku juttu jossa myös mainittiin miten ukrainalaiset on otettava huomioon kun tarkastellaan suomen viimevuoden terveystilastoja.

Yeah, I’m a bit sad that even offline shopping is showing clear signs of dark patterns, but guess it is just so.

Nothing against someone just doing their job though. Can’t always choose where you get your living from.

That’s probably exactly what I’ll be doing from now on. Was hoping for the simple “would you like to join?” but guess that’s out of style.

I did politely decline and didn’t want to make a fuss about it - the title is bit exaggerated and from outside perspective it probably wasn’t that dramatic.

I know that the cashier is just doing their job and I didn’t want to make their day any harder than it probably already was. I smiled, thanked and left right after paying.

Hope I don’t sound like a karen, just wanted to share my mundane experience in this community since I really love the discussion that is going on in this thread. I do hope that all of us in this community still remember the human when interacting with people in the real world.
