I get it, but it really sucks that Graphene only works on Pixel hardware. I switched to Samsung with my last phone.

This is nothing new. They do the same with drivers license data.

Not every banking app is that way. Mine worked.

I also dont think everything needs to be an app.

I think the industry needs to rethink extensions in general. VSCode and browser extensions seem to have very little thorough review or thought into them. A lot of enterprises aren't managing them properly.

I've always thought c suites probably give each other applause and tell each other how great they are. Now I know it's true.

Purdue doing the Chinese a favor. Nobody wants to go to West Lafayette.

I ran Hugo when I launched my blog last year. I made 18 total posts. Probably 3/4 of those had issues when trying to publish due to issues with Hugo. Found it so frustrating.

I found Hugo to work well for the most part. Seemed everytime I went to publish id run into a new error if I wasn't consistent enough about posting. I moved over to Docusaurus for the new year and off of Hugo.

Thanks for the work you do, really inspirational honestly.

Does that actually exist? I know there are reddit type clones, but I'm yet to see anything that allows me to setup a niche server and only that.

Pacers31Colts18 — Wed, 09 Mar 2022 14:11:24 +0000

I enjoy my 1:1s with my manager. It's pretty relaxed, open ended conversation. Recently she asked us all to just do a summary in OneNote of what we did for the week, so that kind of gives us things to talk about. Typically we talk about personal life, family things for about half of the meeting and work the other half.

Step 1....I'm assuming this is what's happening with my company too.

We announced April offices are back open.

Step 2. will be hybrid for supervisors/managers

Then returning everyone.

My guess is all back to normal by October.

I like my job, my manager and the people I work with. I'm paid well and have good benefits. 2 years in and don't have any complaint

The town next to me in Indiana has giant oversized parking lots. I swear the Target parking lot is 3 times as large as the Target itself.

I would do anything for my dogs, doesn't matter what it costs, I love both of them so much and can't imagine not having them in our family. They are family.

The big issue of sports streaming still remains. Sites popup every once in a while that have apps, etc (HeHeStreams, BallStreams) but then get taken down. It's hard to find a good sports streaming site that does the following:

1. Has TV apps 2. No ads 3. Reliable

I've been doing the Kodi route, but it's such a PIA with streams not working consistently.

Seems like maybe instead of shutting it down, they should cut funding for departments that aren't participating?
