Ok I agree in theory.tyat said I rented a room when younger. In a house that has 2 other older men in the house.

Yeah roommates suck. But I couldn't afford the rent I pay now if they were not there. I was on a month to moth basis for contract and it was a room in a house instead of an apartment means something.

Renting a room isn't that bad, renting nightly is....

I think it's "a 7 year old" "blood walking" ... Back in the day it used to be "crypt walking" and the bloods and crypts were rival gangs.

Anyway blood/crypt walking is a "dance". Think of it like almost a jig or skanking but gangster style.

Ok...what is that for? I'm not saying it's useless or not needed but I have no idea what that word means...

Based on my watching of the Drew Carey show 20 years ago I'm pretty sure that's Cleveland...

I may of also blown the f-hole on another piece ...

Warning...probably an uncle joke...

I used to play in a orchestra until I popped my g-string while fingering a minor...

I think that means you should stop...

I'm also a software engineer (at least in title). I agree with the social skills but a different thing came to mind. The ability to actually watch and understand what people are trying to do. I'm lucky as all my software is internal to my company. I don't make what we sell, I make what tests the products we sell. And yes I test the tests and also test the test's tests 😭.

I'll give an example. I have an operation where the operator is to scan a number off a paper before testing. That number is for traceability we need to know which test results are for which unit. Previous engineer said since it's scanned off the unit it will never be incorrect as long on the printed barcode is correct(separately validated) so no need to verify format.

I ran into an issue where units had an extra zero either before or after the number. So if number was 12345 sometimes it would be 012345 or 123450.

I went to watch the process. The operator scanned the unit( I watched them work all day, this was 1 unit out of a whole days work) and when they put the scanner down the scanner's corner was on the 0 button of the keypad.

We did a 2 phase remiduation. Stage 1. Operator instructed to log in and then place keyboard on shelf away from workplace. Stage 2. Verify the number is in correct format in code. Yes the code update is simple but in our field needs weeks of work to test, validate, and release.

Actually watching the operator closely identified the problem. The code was not the issue, the code passed all requirements and tests. The issue was the tests and requirements did not match the user's experience but if I stayed in my cube as for weeks I would not of been able to find the bug.

I equate an AI to an intern. It's useful for some stuff but if I'm going to attach my name to it I'm going to review it and probably change a lot about it.

We can't let you bring this bottle of "water" on the plane because it me an explosive...so I'm just gonna to throw it into this garbage can full of all the other potential explosives in the most densely packed area of the airport...

Yes, as I said it depends on you and your partner. Also the point is basically to say "I understand the struggle you are experiencing, here is some encouragement" without being a machine...

As another user said in a better way...do you want to vent or do you want solutions? If vent recognize their pain and encourage them, if solutions try to help.

If your dog is ever running and you can't catch them act hurt. Pretend to fall and hurt your knee. Most likely it will come back and check on you and you grab it, unless it's playing with something else then good luck
