Hah Crytek did that to me circa 2015, C# role but then they changed their minds to C++ and told me "not to worry" 🤣

I stayed at a Hilton a couple of years ago after a cancelled flight and I was absolutely flabbergasted at what 300 dollars a night gets you these day: a bed in a barely cleaned room.

Paying less is good. I love sales, but they are still a psychological manipulation to get you to spend more money than you normally would.

This dude is 100% correct and I have no idea why people are downvoting him. Sales make people more likely to buy a product due to being limited. Limited time sales work better than lowering prices in the long term.

It's why indie games do stuff like release their new games with time-limited 10% off discounts.

I'm pretty sure she didn't consider those to be animals, only "bugs"

One day I'm going to frame a coloured drawing I still have from year one. The following event is also still ingrained in my mind: We had to colour in a picture with several animals, one of which was a small spotted reptile in a puddle of water. Clearly a salamander.

The teacher crossed it out in red pen and screamed that I am old enough to know lizards are green and there is no such thing as a black and yellow animal on this earth.

Portugal can't even into Europe right now

Fair enough! It's just the memo itself reads more like an inocuous "hey are we really doing things the best way possible?" I've seen my fair share of bycicle lanes done wrong (my home town has roughly 500 meters of it going from a busy car heavy roundabout in the middle of nowhere to some other place also in the middle of nowhere).

Has anyone read the actual text? This sounds quite reasonable without knowing the broader context.

I don't get why people recommend nothing phone. They promise less years of software updates than most major brands and the best they do differently is "it's sustainable". Whatever that means.

No, you can't. Simple as that. Same with helping someone carry some boxes because you're just a cool dude.

I don't make the rules, I only know them 😅
