was about to comment and mention how much I agreed about Muse and then I looked at the rest of your bands and I just can't leave anything out. 100%.

gotta agree on event horizon, I loved scary movies but that one was something else.
lots of questions, I haven't moved jobs in a while because I'm happy where I am but I've added to these even when interviewing people to join my team.
- what is your policy for overtime or comp time when there are evening or weekend emergencies?
- how often do people tend to need to be available outside of standard working hours?
- what does success in this position look like for me 6 months down the road?
- how often do tasks and priorities change last minute?
- how long has the average person been on the team?
- what is the policy on sick days, vacation days, etc
- what is the remote work policy
- how flexible are they on work hours? if it's a salary position, generally you will have work to do, but many bosses won't care if you take a 2-hour lunch and do some grocery shopping or whatever. as long as overall you're doing your work and getting things sorted.
- when interviewing with team members instead of just the new management, it's a good idea to ask them about the managers style, and what they like about working there.
- (generally by the interview you should have some idea of what the actual job entails, but if not, ask a bunch of questions related to that. what kind of system are you developing for, is it primarily supporting new feature or handling sustaining issues, what languages are used, what is the environment, etc)
I would love to have a different and better candidate than Biden, but hard disagree.
someone would need to have stood out by now. that could take his place and we just don't have anyone. we can't run someone that has no name recognition against Trump or DeSantis.
cannot recommend this cozy fantasy book highly enough. wonderful read.
same, but I thought relay was shutting down too?
so many, I've been on a muse and imagine dragons binge lately.
but instead of mentioning them much, I'm going to say one that caught me by surprise. Heard my wife's music in the background the other day and this quote stuck in my head:
"you kept me like a secret but I kept you like an oath"
just thought it was an excellent turn of phrase. turns out it was Taylor Swift lol.
