No, just an American, where a health challenge of any kind can potentially bankrupt me, because health care here is a criminally privatized corporate hellscape.

We got the nerd tech who exudes, “I’d rather be at ComiCon.”

Wow. That describes my whole team.

Probably depends where the Bayer funding is at.

Faith of the Heart

also anyone here into manifestation/law of attraction, does it actually work for you? not asking to like wish for money lol, more curious how you actually get into a good headspace and stay there day to day

I remember the random people I’ve interacted that I really liked.

Then I taught myself enough acting skills to pretend to be that person.

I get genrally better service than anyone else.

I also tip well, because I can. That probably helps, but that’s not why I do it.

As others said: Choose to fall in love with brushing and flossing your teeth.

Make that shit your “me” time.

Experiment with expensive or esoteric ways to make it feel great.

If it’s not the best part of your day, change things up until it is.

I would have suffered less if I had figured this out sooner.

does manifestation actually work

Not unless your parents are rich.

had some bad losses in trading lately, took a short break and now trying to actually fix my risk management before going back in

Good for you getting out. Don’t get back in. No more day trading. Day trading is anti-social shithead behavior, anyway. If you don’t feel bad for doing it, take a closer look. It doesn’t pass any kind of pro-social test.

if you’re older and already been through your 20s, what do you wish someone told you back then?

Someone did tell me this, but I was a stupid kid. I followed it, but I started stupdily late.

Maybe you’re smarter than I was, but forgive yourself later if you’re not - you’re at least in good company.

Here is is:

"Time in the market always beats market timing. Buy conservative things with real value - ideally that routinely pay a dividend. Hold on to them.

However powerful you think you know compounding interest is, you’re wrong. It’s substantially more powerful than that.

Get it - compounding interest - on your side right now, and keep it there, anytime you can.

Don’t take out any debt that you can possibly avoid."

Lots of organizations have a “ooh scary Linux” server or two that they rely on, but failed to retain the talent needed to maintain it. If you’ve been running desktop Linux, and know some basic command line tools, you’re way ahead of most people they will interview for the role.

The downside is that they might feel that they can maybe just keep ignoring their problem for another year, and some will.

Probably zone out all day on my home emotional manipulaor machine.

So only for people who serve the state, not for people who served their neighbors without official capacity.

Translates to “not for people we could not control” pretty readily.

Kimia’s father is a stone cold professional. He nailed so many comedic timings.

I run Linux at a workplace that is mostly Windows and some Mac.

Nobody notices or cares.

Everything I need runs in a browser now.

But why does everyone bring up AutoCAD? Lemmy seems to be full of AutoCAD professionals.

I sling code and documents. Linux is better for code and uses Office 365 as well as any other OS.

But I’d just put docker in WSL if I had the misfortune of having to use it on Windows.

Oh, thanks! I might try WSL next time, should I be so unfortunate, again.

That’s one thing - installing and trying out Podman compose takes less time than remembering where to get Docker compose from.

I always at least try it first, because it’s not expensive to try.

Haha. Yes. This meme would be more fair to call “podman compose” out as “we have Docker compose at home”.

I’m not a fan of the compose pattern anyway. So it doesn’t usually bother me.

Interesting.

I used to do it the way you’re recommending (before I had podman compose), but I got tired of installing docker compose, and haven’t suffered enough for just using Podman compose, lately.

I do think more things are more likely to work the way you’re saying. Compose doesn’t seem to be standardized yet? And the original dev was probably using Docker compose - for any randomly selected project.

But when I can get away with podman compose, I do, as I recall it being much easier to setup.

Podman is the RedHat implementation of the Open Container Initiative (OCI).

A Dockerfile and a Containerfile are both OCI. Docker and Podman can generally both use either.

Contrasted with Docker, Podman has better security defaults, and installers and licenses that are both actually open source. (Parts of Docker are open source. Parts are not.)

Docker used to lead with additional features beyond OCI such as Docker Compose, but Podman Compose has been a thing for a while, now.

The more mature a product is, the more likely it works perfectly with any OCI compliant tool.

For rookie work, I feel like there’s still fair odds the developer only uses Docker and may rely on some anti-pattern that requires setting “bad security=ok” settings before their project will work in Podman.

Your mileage may vary.

I’ve had the opposite experience. Good to share our data points, though.

Docker desktop is not. (open source)

Which can be a pretty big deal.

This works out to: The product is unencumbered, but the only reliable installer is encumbered as fuck.

That’s a “no thanks”, from me.

I don’t need the sword of “Docker fucking with my colleague’s ability to collaborate” hanging over each of my projects.

I’m not mad at folks using Docker for backwards compatibility. I just don’t need to make the problem worse.
