Just provide a decent place to work. People will stay.
Exactly. Any employer that intends to provide a fair wage for fair labor doesn't have this kind of bullshit contract. A TRAP clause is simply internentional premeditated abuse, and it should be prosecuted as such in the courts.
What a fantastic redition of those tradgic orphans!
I'm sure it would bring great joy, if their story was any less unfortunate!
I don't hear about "The Vorkosigan Saga" anywhere near enough for how good it is.
A scientist gets trapped on a planet with only a barbarian idiot warmonger to help her survive.
Eight or so books later and we get to read about the not quite scandal across her space empire when she takes a new lover and her star romping space knight sons can't quite figure out how to handle their new stepdad.
And a lot of star empire drama, ego, heroism, and compassion in between. It's so fun, y'all.
Kindness can be learned. The difference between being genuinely kind and just constantly successfully mimicing what a kind person would do is - no difference at all, really.
Ultimately, I think people who started as natural assholes make the best kind people - beacuse we don't just do what feels kind, but we have to examine the results of our attempts at kindness, and adjust if needed.
I'll wait to get my hopes up until we find out if anyone can replicate their results.
I love that episode!
... But.... Yeah. It's not good. It's kinda great. But not good.
I am, hopefully, exaggerating on the 11 count. I don't know the exact number, and likely no one does - but it genuinely is shockingly small, considering how critical usability and accessibility are to everyday use of code.
Anyone can study the principles of usability and accessibility, but the number of experts we have really is far too few, and I suspect it's is why we have so much reuse instead of innovation, right now.
Lots of other very pragmatic solutions also seem ridiculous.
Every problem is going to cost either clock cycles or highly skilled programmer time.
Currently, in the world, all eleven competent user interface element developers are occupied with more important tasks.
Until one of those eleven finds some extra free time, the rest of us get to slap electron into everything, and he thankful we can spread our atrocious CSS anti-talents to one more problem-space.
It's been awhile since I finished if, but if I recall correctly,Abzu was about 5 hours.
FYI, "Pokemon FireRed" is the same game, but with a ton of usability issues fixed.
"And then, one day, there weren't any more rabbits to eat, so..."
Just quoting you for emphasis here, in case any of our newbies missed it. Well said!
