This sounds a lot like superannuation that we have in Australia and is mandatory. A certain amount of money from your paycheck is put with a super and they invest it for you, and the idea is that you should have a few hundred grand by the time you retire.

Yeah one of these is literally my primary USB 3.0 to SATA adapter

I’m sure you say that in jest to some extent, I do know some people who say “arks” instead of “ask” and they have never realised it until it was pointed out. I’d say a similar phenomenon happens with “nucular”

I hate the ambiguity in that too. My usual goto instead is “the coming Friday”

I am still in my first job as a B2B tech and thought this was something only my workplace did, was scrutinise ticket time.

I continue to find it hard there because I legitimately don’t slack but gaps end up between my time records (its hard to continuously work 4 hours at a time with zero downtime) and the boss comes down saying his KPI of ticket time / worked time teamwide keeps going down, and like you say the goalposts keep shifting.

I even went to the trouble of making my own time tracker that gave me even more information about my time entries and what was left for the day and how much I was out, way more info than what PSA gives you, but then got scared of continuing to work on it as the goalposts shifted again to billable time entries / worked time, and doing a time tracker isn’t billable to a client.

Headline is slightly misleading, it was that a pair of carjackers stole a car that had AirPods within it so the police used the Find My location of those AirPods to therefore believe they could sent SWAT around to this lady’s address.

It’s actually astonishing to me how much better Linux deals with updates compared to macOS and Windows. “Oh, updates are installed, and you just need to restart whatever I updated if it’s currently running.”

Sometimes it does have its moments though, like when it updates some core package and changes its config in such a way that the next boot doesn’t go into a GUI, but I think it’s also fair to point out Windows has had those too. And macOS High Sierra with the performance and security issues it initially had on release won’t go unmentioned by me either.
