Also please plug it out beforhand). Often times smart devices like these have debugging ports left on the board you can easily access with some clamps.

To add some value to my joke comment: I would assume this is running "Open Street Map" locally on a webserver.

Even though you can say that this will not hurt the "big companies", I still feel that this is very close to fraud/stealing.

Miss aligning your text?

Go f*** yourself""]]>The way he looks at the audience, expecting a positive reaction, it seems to me that the memes have really got into his head and he thinks people still love him for being so edgy and 'funny'. Instead, he comes across as a dangerous lunatic with too much power and money.

For a junior dev, it might be closer to an 8, given the multiple components involved.

For some reason I cannot stand the AHK syntax. For me personally it is hard to bring structure to an AHK code.

For me, the most discussions and hate on Twitter is hard to read. With topics aimed at an even broader and more mainstream audience (sign in with Instagram), there will be even fewer people sharing really interesting and niche tech topics. I imagine there will be hundreds of "How to hack any website with this simple trick" type posts or pseudo "grindset" motivational posts.

I really liked the "share your personal blogs" post in HN and hope we all appreciate this kind of content more than these social media tiktok wanna be like endless scrolling reddit apps.

I would look for junior roles, but if there is an offer that sounds interesting, just give it a go. I have learnt that these requirements are often not that strict and once you can talk to the people, they do not matter at all.

As far as job titles go, you can search for data scientist roles.

I only had 1 hour of computer time, after which the tool would close all applications on my PC except Microsoft Office Apps (for productivity). After a bit of clicking around, I somehow managed to open a browser in Outlook and play flash games on Miniclip.
