For movies and TV shows people either rip them off of personal collections and/or download them from the internet.
When combined with `yt-dlp` you can use it to download videos from your favorite channels. This is especially valuable as there's no guarantee the videos will be there for free forever.
It's also a nice place to put family videos and recorded sporting events.
I have a script that scrapes a few youtube channels which my kid uses jellyfin to watch. Youtube is otherwise not allowed, too easy to watch all sorts of crap.
Same. Illegally backed up, in my case, because the DMCA is ridiculous and prohibits backing things up unless you crack the DRM personally. But I don't care, as that is a stupid law and I have the moral right to rip my discs if I want. But the content was legally purchased originally which is what matters imo.
Three years into my career and my total comp hasn’t risen once - it’s honestly exhausting at this point but I’m still learning a ton, feel as if there is solid job security, and love my team. At some point I’m going to have to make that scary jump though if it continues.
That’s fair. There have been plenty of points in my career where I chose leveling up over compensation and even chose a lower offer between two offers because it would prepare me for my n+1 job better.
Soulseek is likely the one you're remembering. I remember talking to people with similar collections of music. Hotline was my primary passion for quite some time but soulseek had a longer run of utility in my childhood on the nascent web.
Can someone help me better understand the ultimate goal here? I'm thinking through the AI influence and how it would replace the engineers at my company and fail to see it. However, that is likely just pure ignorance on my part and I'm likely just missing the obvious.
Say someone from the business side wants an external Api implemented into some ingestion pipeline. What would this look like without engineers?
I guess a new industry of "prompt engineers" comes to fruition that is just a middle man between the business and the AI. Because we know for 100% certainty that zero executives are going to spend the time to interface with these chat prompts to build the ingestion pipeline. The prompt engineers will just be what we called application developers.
A full body 40 minute routine using supersets will work great for most people. x3 a week (might be too much if you're just starting so ease into it) is going to also be great for most.
I think the latest science favours full body workouts over splits. I find it easier and more enjoyable as well.
Absolutely agree and my intent was more that the majority of the proven routines can have you out of the gym pretty quickly. Full body, upper / lower split, PPL, etc.
I’ve always valued the mentor / mentee process and have gone out of my way to help a couple of students from my former university.
The problem is, I’ve struggled to find a mentor that isn’t currently at my company.
Not looking for a job or even network building - I love my job, simply looking for someone to chat with about issues and career development as someone only a few years into their career as a SWE.
Most of the recommendations I receive are sites where the individual has a large list of mentees and cost hundreds of dollars.
Genuinely curious.
