Even though I consider not telling your boss in person a bit low and immature, what's wrong with a good ol' email? "I'd come and tell your myself but I can no longer stand looking at your face. I'm done. Ta-ta." Then you can take the saved money to a pub.
I do not exist on social media. You'll not find me on any "professional" sites (i.e. LinkedIn) too. In fact, you'll not see my name or personal information anywhere on the Internet at all (at least not because I put it there lol). Why would I share such critical information with anyone publicly? Because everyone else does so? Because hardly anyone cares about their privacy? Following the herd is simply dumb. Develop some common sense, people.
I've never had a problem with "not having a profile" when looking for a job.
job hunting purposes and never use it elsewhere. If you do, you'll find that your professional email will land on a zillion of spam lists and you'll be bothered by recruiters even years after securing a job. By keeping it separate, recruiters also won't be able to find your profiles on the Internet and possibly jeopardise your application efforts.
Plus they'll have an excuse to bombard you with targeted ads and have absolute control as to what you can and cannot do with the device. Perhaps you'll only be allowed to play blue-ray films or run 3rd-party games if you upgrade to a higher plan.
Which Hollywood studios paid you to write this article?
There are too many good shows out there.
Maybe if you're an average American, maybe. Everyone else, however, clearly sees that good productions are scarce (and usually paywalled) because big studios want to milk viewers at all cost before new stuff goes on torrents or streams.
The price of admission is higher for movies
Come on! Why on Earth would you still go to a theatre/cinema to watch a film if you're not on a date?
Networks And Platforms Market Emmys More Than Critical Scores
I can't remember a single time in my life when someone said to me "Oi, look - this film has won a zillion awards! It must be awesome!". It's like marketing for films. The numbers or recommendations do not mean a damned thing. They are there to make us believe something's good while its not.
Personally, I use IMDB a lot - to scrape the titles I want to "get".:wink::wink:
I have a mobile plan with two numbers. One is my day-to-day number, the other one - used only for authentication / 2FA / recovery purposes and only turned on when required.
...none of the games I play are online games. I find online games toxic and pushing you into spending more and more time in game in order to compete for scores with teenagers who do not have any real-life obligations. Eventually, instead of enjoying the game, you either get frustrated or start spending additional money to catch up.
That's why I mostly get games from gog.com. Games which I can enjoy on my own accord. Games which I know won't change and which I can master. Lastly, games which I can complete within the next week or in 10 years because I own them.
Selling at almost the highest observed price was sheer luck. My company held an early Christmas party last year during which almost everyone talked about BTC. That night, on my way home I thought to myself: "This is crazy. Everyone's buying bitcoins but they are pure speculation. Worse than the stock market. No cover in goods or services what-so-ever. Ever raising mining cost doesn't help either. This will KABOOM soon. I'm out." I found two really wealthy investors within a week and sold them all the bitcoins I owned. The price started tumbling down a week later.
I owned a considerable amount of bitcoins which I had mined a few years before. When the price jumped to $19 000 in December 2017, I judged that this speculative madness couldn't continue any longer and decided to turn my BTC into cash. Turns out I was right.
... that common citizens would also have access to highly accurate, real-time data models so that their own efforts to own the world would become less, if at all, efficient.
market. You lose control over your own company because you're no longer the only owner and strangers begin to have a say as well. Sharing is never good, regardless of what some people say.
That's one of the areas where humans should be replaced with some clever biometrics or AI. Human emotions, subjective judgements and not following procedures would be entirely taken out of equation.
As a developer I have absolutely no need of other apps, be it free, paid or subscription based. If I need an app to do task X, I write it myself. It's a win-win situation:
- I don't have to pay a penny. Ever. Free apps are hardly ever usable as their only purpose appears to be to "convince" users to buy a paid version.
- I can have the exact functionality I need.
- I don't have to be afraid that any of the apps will change in 2 months.
- I don't need to worry about my privacy as I am the one controlling my data.
- I know exactly what my apps do in the background.
- I'm not forced to see ads every minute of my life.
- My apps are always optimised and preserve battery life.
- I experience personal growth and become a better programmer.

I'd think Ryanair would be the first.

That was exactly my train of thought. But in the world of software you never know lol.
...you use a custom ROM but do not use G-Apps? Or am I asking a stupid question? (I don't know much about android dev)

Neither will ever be allowed inside my house for privacy reasons.

Eh?
In all likelihood they just need more money to produce their own crap. Because that's what most of Netflix Originals are. Crap.
leave the job.
...wait till they stop playing that vacuum cleaner ad.

I can instantly tell which developer within the company wrote the code I'm reviewing just by looking at it.
