I didn’t pass the whiteboard interview ☹️
nuh uh
Gender studies isn’t a job, it’s an academic field
I’m not entirely sure how ad blockers work, but my understanding was they prevent things loading from certain URLs. If the ads are embedded into the video, then there’s no ad-specific URL to block
While the overall video would be a different length, video players often don’t count the ads towards the media time. So the deep links should be okay
That sounds really frustrating. Some people don’t think about (or actively ignore) how their actions affect others. Sounds like you’re making a good decision for yourself to no longer live with him
Fear is the mind-killer
Yeah I wasn’t fast enough and I also tried to contact their support and such. Oh well
Years ago, I bought headphones that were ¼ of the price of the big name Bose and Sony’s and provided at least ¾ the experience. When I wore them so much they eventually broke years later, I purchased some more from their website. Turns out they have been taking orders and haven’t been delivering products. Their Facebook page still posts ads and the comments are people talking about how it was a scam. That’s $170 dollars I won’t get back. It’s weird because I really liked their product and had no reason to think they would suddenly stop delivering. Very strange.
Brand is Cowin, by the way.
Yeah it’s tricky. Using “female” as a noun in a non-biological context is often used by incels and misogynists in order to dehumanise women. Whereas there isn’t the same trend of certain groups using “male” to dehumanise men, or at least I’ve never heard of it happening in real life.
In a vacuum, both would be the same, but because there is a much larger trend of using “female” to dehumanise women than using “male” to dehumanise men, it’s not a true double-standard.
And as long as you’re not being a dick, especially if English isn’t your native language, then people will know what you mean. But if you are consciously trying to make an effort, then don’t use “female” and “male” as nouns to refer to someone’s gender.
Yep, it’s got the normal scrub daddy scrubbing material on one side and a sponge on the other. Pretty good
“Accessibility.” It mainly refers to computer accessibility (like websites and apps). Ironic that a common word for accessibility is inaccessible to people who don’t know what it means
It’s a numeronym!
I agree, very weird. I thought i18n was some weird sound thing that I hadn’t figured out yet. “‘eye-eighteen-ehn’ isn’t too far from ‘internationalization’, I guess”
I agree, most fin acronym to say
if you know, you missed it
It is fun to say, though. wizywig
iirc it means “if I recall/remember correctly”
