Amazon CEO is calling for 5 days a week in office, starting January 2nd.

They didn’t do that for the past 3 years. They hired 15% more in 2023.

My team and managers have been awesome with respecting my time. It’s ironic that Jassy wants to “operate like a startup” but won’t trust his management to make the best decisions so we work quickly.

Fuck… I was doing coffee badging recently. 5 days is a lot to just drive to the office and back. I need to look for other dev jobs in Seattle that actually respect their employees, but the market is gonna be so cold after this announcement.

I have until January 2nd apparently.

At least they still haven’t said a minimum time in the office yet…

That really sucks. I hope you’re doing better now.

Soooo. I’m dumb. I host my overseerr on my domain that just routes to my local IP for my local desktop. How do I get email on this domain without spending dumb money on an email hosting server?

I’ll do fun work events if they’re during work time. You’re telling me I don’t have to work and get to have fun? Sure!

We played laser tag once during a Friday instead of working. It was blast.

If you are the only one playing the PlayStation, you can do remote play via the computer, phone ,or even from a PS4.

My wife’s engagement ring was custom made! It is a key blade with the kingdom hearts logo on the front, with tiny tiny diamonds on the hearts and 3 small sapphires in the little crown on the heart. I tried to get moissanite, but because the diamonds are so small, they said they don’t make moissanite that small, and it would save fractions of a dollar.

It cost me less than half a semester’s tuition in college, so not super expensive like the “3 months salary” bullcrap.

In fact, I had to go through two jewelers for this because when I was pitching the concept to the first one, they saw the Disney logo on the key blade and refused to do it. I just clipped that out when I went to another shop.

Ahhh. I see. Yea, just make all the receptacles the same! Hue is nice in that the bridge doesn’t need to connect to the internet to communicate with the devices, and the lights only go through the same bridge.

I love telling my phone to turn off my lights in bed, or changing the color of my lights with a simple command. It’s super handy and I’m never going back.

 

Seems they added some new icons, like pride which I may end up using now, but they got rid of the orange one??? Why? :( I have a color theme going on and nothing works that isn’t orange. Any idea if we’re getting it back?
