I just recently found a job through Linkedin. Angellist was a bust. i didn't really try on stackoverflow. was it easy to find companies by location?

It was pretty easy, at least in Berlin. I set up alerts for jobs matching my profile and I tried to be among the first few applicants.

LinkedIn initially rejected two bug reports from me. The first was fixed. For the second one they just deleted a post I couldn't access when logged in. Now I want to build an alternative. Every account can have a resume, post jobs, share stuff with mentions and private messages.

Yes, there is a tipping somewhere in social discourse from book-club -> peers-conference -> concert --> mob. There is diversity and low echo-chamber effect here and that's appreciated.

Text alone can convey the message its all you need. I like this place everyone seems nice and chill

I think that's what I like the most about Subreply. It doesn't have shortcuts. For example, if this were on Reddit, I would've probably just upvoted your reply and moved on. The fact that the only way to convey anything is using words compels you to give the subject proper thought.

In Berlin, summer came suddenly back. Weather is strange this year.

You're right on both accounts. Whatever personality this has is just the sum of all the people active here. So, if subreply's is the way it is because individually we're cool, level-headed people. And yes, if this grew exponentially, with it coming new and more conflict-seeking people, subreply's personality would change accordingly. The world is messy, and the more of the messy world you have in one place, the noisier it gets. Past a certain point it's just deafning.

I like how wholesome this community is. I haven't seen any trolls or anything even close to those Twitter flame-wars. I've always felt that every social media platform has its own personality, and I really love Subreply's. Or perhaps it's because there's only a handful of people here and a social network is doomed to be toxic as it gains popularity.

2020 will definitely stand out in our collective memories as the most bizarre year of our lives. On the rare occasions I went back to some of the places where I used to hang out I was overcome by this eery strangeness of no longer belonging there. So yes, there's a surreal quality to all that is happening. We were all abruptly forced to cut ties with the real to inhabit the hyperreal of our digital simulacra. So where are we really?

Went back into the office for the first time since mid-March. It was surreal. I miss having double computer monitors but other than that I don't miss the place

I went to my workplace the other day and had similar feelings about it. I don't like seeing it deserted, and it's not going to be the way it used to be at least in the foreseeable future . I guess remote work is the new normal now. Not complaining though; I've managed to find my rhythm.

Is this in Berlin? I hope you're distanced from them. I've heard people (somewhat) assume that Europeans are taking this more seriously... :\

BoC is fantastic. You might want to check out Yair Etziony as well.

Dayvan Cowboy is one of my favorite BoC songs! I recommend the Hi Scores EP (especially "Everything You Do is a Balloon") and their Music Has the Right to Children album. Currently in the process of listening to their Geogaddi album for the first time so I'll have to get back to you on that one but many consider it their best work.

I listen to all kinds of music. Lately though, I have gotten into lofi hip hop and lofi jazz. I also really like music by Boards of Canada (their music is electronic/ambient)

What kind of music do you listen to? What genre?

I miss going to the cinema so much. It was always so much more than just going to see a film. I would have a meal and a drink, either before or after; I'd read and listen to reviews; I'd carefully choose which films to see. I'm still not sure when I'll have my next cinema outing...

What tv shows are you watching? I'm watching Handmaid's Tale, Mr. Robot, Westworld and Dark.
