Bloodthief slaps so incredibly hard and has a big free demo. Definitely try it out. If you liked neon white or any other “speedrunning simulator” games definitely give it a look!

I can only speak from my experience (USA based), but:

You can get access to drugs you may or may not wish to use.

Any new life insurance plan’s premiums will go up as soon as you get prescribed those meds.

You will probably go through a period of post diagnosis regression as you reevaluate unhealthy coping mechanisms you’ve developed. Even if you think you already accept your brain for its difficulties and quirks.

You might spend a couple months being really annoying about your diagnosis as you figure out how to incorporate it into your identity. This lines up with a lot of the post diagnosis regression.

On the far side, you might end up redeveloping new coping strategies that are slightly less shame driven. But the demands of the world around you probably won’t flex around your new diagnosis.

TBH if you’re old enough to be on here you probably already know how to manage your environment and needs to live in the world, it’s just a question of if you can actually acknowledge you have special needs and if you’re capable of being kind to yourself while addressing them. And a diagnosis does help with quelling the anxiety around “do I actually have special needs or is everybody like this”

Ah, that sounds correct to me.

My interpretation is probably distorted by having worked at big companies that have arms in basically every part of software development so there is no side project programming that is “out of scope” there.

But working at a company with a narrower focus would let you moonlight more freely.

Salaried american software developer here. While some large companies have moonlighting carve outs, by and large the rights to any of your work done outside working hours is at the employer’s discretion.

(I call out salaried because I think those clauses can vary depending on the structure of your employment)

a short hike is 100% Canadian, I’m pretty sure. The composer and programmer/artist are both from the Toronto indie scene.

Unfortunately, it is extremely painful to work with😔 Enjoy rolling your own script versioning and update systems instead of using squirrel et al

Edit: I think Tauri works by targeting this and webkitgtk via their wrapper library, unfortunately I can’t get my coworkers to write rust

Bad news, there’s precedent for making boycotts illegal, though that’s based on a deliberate misreading of hate speech laws

100% agreed. The fact that it’s possible to deport someone who has lived in America for decades just for getting laid off is absurdly cruel.

Definitely seems like they want the layoff from my position in the industry.

The tech megagiants are massively reallocating their budgets from “paying people for new product development” to datacenter build-outs, under the belief that AI will fundamentally restructure all knowledge work into property you can own and extract rent from.

Unfortunately the industry is completely non union and a good chunk of employees are on H1B or TN visas where they will get deported if they get fired. That really puts a damper on wanting to rock the boat.

Expect things to get less stable and shittier over time as this trend continues.

They were forced to as the result of an antitrust settlement in 2009, and then the “remedy” expired 5 years later and they ripped it out

Kroger also does that :(

Not to sell out my community but I know quite a few people whose condom use went down after they got on PrEP

It is, and it’s on by default. At least, it was for me.

Reddit’s app adds the watermark when you save on mobile, it’s not a screenshot of the app.
