Got a new monitor today :)

27", so much more space then the previous 25".

Tinkeringbell

Sounds nice!

I think next month I'll be buying myself a docking station, so I can use both my monitors again :)

@Luuklag I guess that's a ... New Year's Resolution

Luuklag

@JourneymanGeek Nope, The old one I just grabbed from the office. Now we got monitors for use at home, and we had to return the ones we borrowed from the office

as we are moving towards more working in the office, from working 100% from home

but the resolution on this monitor is also much better, so the starboard here for example only runs to half the height of the screen.

If I really needed I could now have 4 windows in the screen easily

Attracting developers with a company brand that slays

Katrina Dene on February 08, 2022

If you want to get your company brand noticed, why not get a little adventurous?

@Feeds "Why not get a little adventurous" > Because we're not just dumb sheep, we recognize marketing and advertising for what it is: selling stuff with promises that never come true.

Kevin B

I care more about work not getting in the way of what i do/want to do outside of work, than whatever magical experience they may be want to fabricate in the office

Tinkeringbell

Hmm, doesn't seem like a brand would get in the way of that much? Just from what I understood of it after talking with my manager, a company brand is just a recruiting tactic, not really something you have to do once you're hired unless you're hired as a recruiter.

Kevin B

Sure, but what i'm saying is companies who try to create this kind of atmosphere could actually drive away potential devs

Kevin B

though, i guess in a sense they may not be looking for devs that see through it

Q: Years in dates will now display with all four digits

We have released an update to the way in which we render dates in the UI across the network. Up until now, whenever a date that included the year was rendered (which would typically be for dates earlier than the current calendar year), we would only show the last two digits of the year (for examp...
