Having worked in the financial industry, this sounds uncomfortably close to the truth.

I'm afraid something similar is going to happen at my place of work. A lot of the top brass that was pro functional languages left during our rounds of layoffs, so I'm concerned that the ones that are left are going to decide that Java is better (easier to hire for).

I think it's less a villain, per se, and more a pervert.

I mean most CS courses don't teach you to code or what a project should look like. It's why the mentality in most professional work is to pretty much forget everything you learned in college and you'll be trained on the job.

I'm currently working my way through The Infinite and The Divine by Robert Rath. I think it could be enjoyable without knowledge of Warhammer 40k, but it is set in that universe. One of the better extended universe type stories I have read so far.

I also want to start in on some of the programming books sitting on my shelf, and maybe finally start on American Psycho, but so far I've been busier reading comics and stuff on Lemmy.

Pretty much already there on some subs.

It's a week old and not super detailed, but it looks like they're on Digital Ocean, but might be looking to move to a cheaper service. Based off of how I've seen the site struggle I don't think they have any horizontal scaling.

Obviously you have to take a corporation at it's word, but Valve has said that in the event they're going to take Steam down, they have a button to push to make it so your games will stop trying to phone home.

Hubski was the one I was trying to remember! I used to be semi active there forever ago. Don't remember why I stopped being active.

The no federation is recent (and due to the antiDDoS measures as mentioned in the post). I've engaged with some communities on their and talk with some people from it. I personally haven't checked it out, but a lot of what I've heard is that it's an easier onboarding experience.

Another, more intro list from Bread and Roses.

If you stream I find curated playlists and sometimes even radio stations based off of songs to get me to new acts. I've found some of my favorite acts this way.

It doesn't help with finding new genres, though. I've actually found the occasional odd ball in my YouTube recommendations are decent for this, but not great.
