    Yeah and it doesn’t help when the new (as of ~2 years ago) dev ops lead is an “AI first” type. I get all that but like 4 years in, tell us to get fucked “your fields are remaining forever collapsed”. 8 god damn years the initial confluence ticket was open.

    I came across it while setting up a wiki page last night, there were people who had been monitoring it for years. Some real “abandon hope all ye who enter” type shit.

    Bro why is Atlassian actually so shit? Two of their open facing tickets I came across last night. One for them to fix table rendering in the description field of tickets and the other to enable the option for collapsable fields in Confluence to be expanded by default.

    Both were the better portion of a decade old and both with 1-2 year old updates saying “sorry we’ve taken so long to provide an update on this request”. The confluence one was closed without word and move to another ticket, reducing the votes/views and therefore dev priority. Such basic functionality left unaddressed for a decade. Bizzare-o world with some of these tech companies I swear.




  • Our research: In our recent national survey of Australian adults and adolescents, we examined general misogynistic attitudes and support for violent extremism.

    Not sure if this is what they’re referring but am also curious how this survey was conducted.

    For example the question “do you believe women lie about DV/SV”. As someone who had a parent lie about related matters, I could answer yes, but is that what the question is actually asking? It seems to be asking if women, in general, lie about them. Obviously, no they don’t, but you can see how a question especially when posed to teenagers may lead to responses easily sensationalised by a news outlet. The inverse of this questions seems to be “do you believe women never lie about DV/SV?”

    There’s a reason self reported surveys are a nightmares for academics to use for meaningful data. Worth pointing the rest of the article has a lot of valid and concerning material that isn’t somehow magically undone by the articles research methods.




  • I used to order somewhat frequently when I first moved to the city on a weekend before the pandemic and the prices became cooked. Going from a small city of 3 Chinese restaurants and one sushi place to an entire city you can order from was awesome and novel.

    Gradually every other order just started getting messed up. I was home pissed one night and decided to order some food while gaming with some mates. It came hours late and Uber offered me like five bucks off my next order and that’s after bitching about it. That’s was pretty much the end for me. The food can arrive whenever, in whatever state and so long as it arrives, fuck you eat your hour cold slop. I can buy and/or make better junk food myself for far cheaper in most case. With one of their main competitors folding I doubt it’s gotten better.

    It also felt like some of the stores didn’t want to do Uber. That management saw the dollar signs but then wouldn’t put more staff on Fri/Sat when the stores would get swamped with orders from boozers.



  • Having a temporary injury still affects ability.

    But is not disabled, by definition and therefore calling people criticising them ableist, is incorrect. Let’s try to keep this based in logic and rational objectivity.

    The point that sailed over your head in your further attempt to do what passes as virtue signal by your metric, is that you’re engaging in the same behaviour you’re criticising. Judging people without attempting to understand, hence my attempt to explain they likely are not, as you accuse “assuming all disabled should have aides”. While providing potential reason for why the initial comment was downvoted. Ableism while morally bankrupt and disgusting behaviour doesn’t warrant referring to people as “subhuman slime”.


  • The ironing of assuming the worst, that someone is ableist before using dehumanising language by referring to people as slime. Cant beat it. Dude was temporarily injured anyway.

    Every person ever has an excuse to ditch trollies of varying validity. No one would ever answer “because I’m a lazy, inconsiderate arsehole” if asked why they left it. Which can easily explain people assuming he’s one of said people and the downvotes. As someone who’s disabled would say “Im disabled” or something to that effect, not “I hurt my knee”. Much more likely than they hold the physically disabled to the same standard or are assuming “everyone who’s disabled should have an aide”. Get a grip.




  • You should talk to a therapist. Your post history is consistent in going between wanting to go your own way and dealing with your parents because you’re financially dependent on them due to being on SSI. All the question posts are just bordering on procrastination.

    I think i want to earn money to gain experience but i also dont feel ready for a job?

    This is what I mean. You’ll never feel “ready” for a job until you get one. No matter where you are there will likely be low skill, low barrier to entry jobs going. They’re shit, they pay fuck all but they’ll pay more than SSI. More importantly you’ll learn some important skills. Namely being accountable to people who aren’t related to you. You’ll probably appreciate the additional income. You’ll probably lose the job because out in the real world you’ll quickly learn that people will only accept excuses for things a few times until they realise it’s a recurring thing.

    You’ll then realise “oh shit, not being entirely broke all the time is pretty good actually” and then you can look towards upskilling and/or going back to school. Move out of your parents and let them worry about their hobby~jobs and messy house. Start worrying about your own life. More importantly start doing shit, fucking it up and learning from it. Anyone who told you they immediately knew what they were going to do with their life and didn’t make any mistakes as a young adult is lying or had a trust fund.


  • Yeah 90s born here and the idea of just wandering up to someone while they’re out in the street, shopping or pretty much anywhere that isn’t like a bar (and even then unless they give some sort of indication) and running a line is wild.

    My mates older brother in high school would insist that sort of stuff is how you do it. Fuck that. I hate people, mostly sales people or weirdos, bothering me when I clearly have every indication about my demeanour not to talk to me, do it. So why would I? It’s weird.


  • This is the problem with these type of idiots. They’re barely educated, more often than not despise education because they don’t understand it and value loudness and over confidence in a “simple” package. They then have their idiocy weaponised with these tools in order to try and claim some sort of recognition despite doing none of the required work to earn it. Then when it all backfires, they blame everything else and the kitchen sink while downplaying rightful outrage as mob outrage.

    Given the rest of his directives to the agent (who tf is he kidding, telling a bot specifically used to follow his instructions, about freeze peach), I’m all but certain he uses the mob term frequently, with it being preceded by woke. I knew I wouldn’t be impressed by the type of person who’s negligent enough to give an AI agent this sort of free rein but his responses are actually despicable. “It was a social experiment” is a shitbag hallmark.

    The anonymous coward who operates MJ Rathbun deserves to be named and shamed, to discourage them and others from doing the same in the future.

    100% agreed, especially when you’re dumb enough to specifically prompt it as a narcissistic nationalist.


  • I always thought the opposite, that they weren’t allowed to as that was a job more appropriate for a Sargent. That not only it was against articles of war but it was conduct unbecoming. Not for moral reasons, obviously, but as a holdover from the lords/upper classes being officers and it being beneath them.

    It’s referenced in Sharpe’s rifles based during the Napoleonic wars. Sharpe an officer made up from the ranks is looked down on by the other officers who are all mostly lords/wealthy with the odd prince thrown in. He gets into a fight with a regular rifleman who’s hungover and mistakes him for a typical soft officer. He’s then chastised by another pair of officers for brawling with the “common soldiery” or something to that effect. Seems like a good idea to prevent lords newly minted as officers making the mistake and getting mauled by actual soldiers.
