WFH is screwing young workers by eliminating the mentorship, learning by osmosis and relationship-building that has propelled many knowledge-based careers. If Goodfellow were truly a good fellow, he would recognize the higher purpose.

I have personally never met someone, who was under the age of 20, who didn't have a solid grasp of working with other programmers remotely. With open source being the power house that it is most promising programmers growing up now are already way ahead of the curve.

I could provide much better mentoring at a local coffee shop or in my home office...

How is screen-sharing not adequate for pair programming and mentorship?

None of those things have to suffer! They just can't be done by accident any more.

This is sarcasm, right? I honestly can’t tell

Hahahaha that’s funny

Allow me to introduce you to Digital Osmosis.

bullshit

Companies and individuals with adjustable rate debt are going to feel this increase. For companies it not only impacts their interest rate, but also their ability to stay ‘in convenient’ with their loan agreements, and to obtain renewals. It means less discretionary cash for their customers as well. Those of us old folks who vaguely recall the early 1980’s remember the follow-on impact of successive rate increases - and make no mistake the Fed is just getting started; and is being joined by other countries engaging in similar efforts to control inflation.

Bitbar is amazing. Its become a dashboard for my life.

What sort of things do you display with it?

Not OP as well but I love BitBar. I use it as a catch-all status and action menu at work. Here’s what I have:

- Display current git branch, useful for quickly looking up the task and task ID when I need to write it somewhere.

- Poll develop branch, parse and display the current sub module commit. Again for quick lookup when I need to reset that repo.

- A list of PRs and their status and ID (just open the menu to see the ID so I can easily find the relevant build in eg CI)

- A couple of bookmarks for usual websites to open

- A couple of bash scripts to delete certain folders

- A couple of shortcuts to open specific folders (eg snapshot folder)

- A simple HTTP status of a website I manage (it tended to break often, now I see if it is down within a minute)

Basically anything I do on a semi regular basis is literally one click away. I cannot recommend this tool enough.

Not parent, but I have bitbar menus for ssh’ing to digitalocean boxes, connecting to corporate vpn, and displaying uptime information from uptimerobot.

Another possibility: There will be events/actions (or have been) the US doesn't want attributed to it's military that could start a war. The audience could be domestic, foreign, or both. The message could well be true.

Russia has suffered a string of military mishaps that defy coincidence. China tensions are at an historic high.

This is no time for misattribution.

Without PDF output it's a chore to share visualizations over email, chat, etc. The uncharted aspect of data visualization is reporting and sharing IMHO.

Hey, that's what we do at Datapane! https://docs.datapane.com/tutorials/tut-creating-a-report - you can create a standalone HTML report which contains interactive tables and plots.

You can also publish this to the web (https://datapane.com/leo/reports/stock_report_5d2925b9/), embed it into social media (https://medium.com/@leo_26134/embedding-with-datapane-366e60...), or deploy your Jupyter Notebook or Python script so that other people can run them with parameters to generate reports dynamically.

It's still pretty new, so if there's anything you'd like to see, give me a shout at leo [at] datapane.com.

The perfect to do app is the one that forces me to use it after I forget about it and lose interest.

This app works pretty much like that: https://www.goarmy.com

It even fills in the todo items for you. But you should read the EULA carefully. It can be difficult to uninstall.

Is this a hilarious autocorrect or did you mean to link the United States Army homepage? Because in a funny way, even if you didn’t the description you gave is kind of fitting and is a bit amusing as veteran (cue: “that’s the joke”?)

Pretty sure it's a joke straight from r/outside :)

We do this as well. Many companies do.

Application #300-something at PNC bank. Informed today they ran out of money and cannot make loan. We will survive this - hopefully - and I will close my PNC accounts. There's. That's more consequence than I can deliver to China whose output I cannot do business without, and who is far more responsible for this mess.
