That's the right mindset.

For those reading, don't let them fool you about down selling your worth. If you've got the skills they want, and you show that, they'll pay you. Job history conversations are just a way to try and leverage lower pay or benefits on you.

There's not enough context here to have a strong opinion, but I'll add that personally, nothing has given me a bigger raise than getting a job at another company.

It must be exhausting, being mad about shit that doesn't affect you all the time.

God damn, every time with this.

Ghost of Tsushima was amazing, I'm looking forward to the sequel.

I understand your take and mostly agree with you. I just want to emphasize I'm not trying to call anyone a dummy or anything, just that it's OK to like what you like.

If companies aren't going to cater to you, yeah that's annoying in most scenarios.

Java when you don't put in a try catch, vs Template in Cpp

I hear what you're saying, but think about it this way, should I have to log into my dvd player to watch a movie? There wouldn't be any added experience. What about 10 years down the line when Sony decides to shut off PSN? Will they take the time to remove the requirement or will they do what they've done in the past and just drop support?

Forcing people to be online and log into shit is just an unnecessary hassle so that they can keep making money off their paying customers. From what I can tell, this does nothing for us. If we just "get over it" then companies will continue to be exploitive. Expressing frustration, especially as a customer is important.

Gaetz wouldn't want kids learning about how consent works.

If you ordered a cookie and didn't get what you want, that sucks and is indeed frustrating.

However I don't know what that has to do with anyone else. If someone wants to eat an almost raw cookie, or a too soft cookie or whatever, I don't think that should bother you.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but Python, like most languages, can be as complex as you make it.

Context is king, so I don't think this is universal. Decent list though.
